I'm not sure about this. I can see it being open to abuse by a few less friendly groups of people. I suppose, if it adds something to your experience you wouldn't have if you were just a 'good 'n'' then that's fine, but if you can't change the state to positive in some way, you could start feeling isolated, which isn't a great feeling even within a game world:

"You can down-vote or up-vote other players depending on their behavior, and that changes their status slightly. People normally show up as red figures in your world but if they get too many thumbs-down they’ll start getting darker, so you’ll know who is a bit of a wrong ‘un and you can steer clear of them. If you get too many thumbs-down the police – if you’ve built a police station, that is – might throw you in jail, so you’ll have to start evading them, which adds another element to the game,"

Edit: Ok, should have read it all first LOL

"It's good to note that a player's status will only be changed "slightly." We all know how trolls relish the opportunity to ruin another person's gaming experience, so placing too much emphasis on the voting system could end up damaging a player's game. To what extent the voting system will impact your game has yet to be seen."

The game itself looks very cool and very advanced BUT for some reason I am smelling a political stance being pushed with this game it looks to be advertised as some kind of advanced tech game with high morale goals we will see how it turns out

uth113501d ago

Well it has that whole Soviet/Communist aesthetic to it. I don't think it's really pushing the political aspect of it, it's more used as a retro thing...

sonic9893501d ago

We cant determine that until we play it.
The unity theme and the we will rise together I dont think that only refers to the soviet times but also well lets just wait and see life tought me that wise people wait till they make judgment stupid ones just speak as soon as they could

No one is buying that tired game again.

Loktai806d ago

I'm glad to see it back. I was actually sad when it shut down

Eizhale806d ago (Edited 806d ago )

I enjoyed this game and was sad to see it go. It’s strange and satisfying all at once. I look forward to playing it again.

A second chance for The Tomorrow Children

From GI.biz: "Towards the tail end of 2021, Q-Games accomplished something very rare in this industry: it had reclaimed its intellectual property, specifically for PS4 exclusive The Tomorrow Children.

In the announcement tweet, the Japan-based company described it as "a historical move by Sony Interactive Entertainment" and it's hard to argue with that. The game was originally published as a second-party title, funded by PlayStation, and it's typical for the platform holder to retain the IP rights in such a partnership."

Lost PS4 Exclusive The Tomorrow Children Confirmed to Return, Developer Regains Rights

Lost PlayStation exclusive The Tomorrow Children will return, after its developer regained the rights in a rare deal with Sony.

YOU DON'T KNOW HOW HAPPY I AMMMMMMM!!!! We are a small group, but we fans of TTC were so heartbroken when the game shut down. We always talk with them on Twitter about how much the game meant to us and how much we missed it. It really is a dream come true to have it come back, I absolutely cannot wait to be in the world again. I hope lots of new people join in on the weirdness and enjoy the incredible atmosphere of the game. Also praying for a PC version where I think it will really shine.

SullysCigar898d ago

A friend of mine used to love this game. Might be time to see what the fuss was all about!

EvertonFC898d ago

Colin moriarty, last stand media recently had a interview with TTC and mentioned about getting control back of the ip.
Good interview and worth the watch, TTC want to go f2p with MT which will support a hardcore fan base

GhostofHorizon898d ago

I knew this was happening in the background but never thought it would actually happen. This is great news for the fans of the game.

It was a neat little game/experience.

Ethereal898d ago

Very cool of Sony to relinquish the rights to the dev.

Father__Merrin898d ago

This was an extremely unique game. Please make this on next gen with RT it will shine with that plastic pladough look

BiggCMan898d ago

So it actually had an early form of ray tracing called voxel cone tracing, the developer calls it. I'm not a big tech guy so I don't exactly what it means but he's explained it a bit on twitter and the discord. And you can totally tell just by looking at the game and comparing it to the ray tracing games today, I just never really knew what ray tracing was at the time so I wouldn't have picked up on it. But now they at least have the chance to improve upon it, maybe add more advanced RT or something. Potentially make it 4k and HDR, 60fps etc. All the good stuff I hope to see!

jznrpg898d ago

Cool I always wanted to play this but by the time end checked it out it was getting shut down . I’ll give it a fo this time around
