Daily Video Game writes: "GameFly has just kicked off a new pre-played blowout game sale on various games for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo gamers that includes many good AAA and recently released titles with steep discounts right now! On top of it, these deals will include free shipping!"
Hidetaka Miyazaki has said that Elden Ring is not his ideal RPG. I agree, and think that an emphasis on player choice will help bring it there.
Honestly I just wish there was a log that told you where you were with certain NPC’s so I don’t accidentally lock myself out of stuff
If I have then it can tell me
Maybe give us a codex like what FFXVI did with names, locations and other lore related info, there was so many people in Elden Ring with names that began with G, R and M, was hard to keep track
codex would be pretty cool to have considering i go long stretches between playing sessions on games
I started keeping notes while playing, but my note keeping skills are trash so most of the time it didn't make any sense xD
But yeah, something like the Codex, or even the journal in Baldurs Gate 3, that one held important information without looking and feeling like a generic quest log.
FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki has said the studio may consider including “beginning to end, total co-op” in future games.
'As long as this company's my responsibility, I would not let that happen.'
Hidetaka Miyazaki describes FromSoftware's relationship with parent company Kadokawa and references Satoru Iwata's perspective on layoffs.
As it should be. At this rate the Western side of the industry will crash and we may yet see the resurgence of Japanese gaming development. Really miss the PS1 days. No bloated budgets, diverse games and many IPs that exist today are from that era. Perhaps the industry does need a reset.
I wish more bosses in this industry would adopt these kind of views that Hidetaka Miyazaki and even Larian boss Swen Vincke have. Your employees are your greatest asset. Once you start laying them off to satisfy stockholders expected returns, you've already lost.
I agree with both of you and there have been some seemingly unnecessary layoffs fueled by corporate greed but when you have From Software money, it's a bit easier to say basically "we are not going to lay people off, look how awesome and good we are to our developers". Not saying that's not true, but when you're raking in that dough then... yeah.
We need more Satoru Iwata type game CEOs in this industry. Phil Spencer that piece of shit will never be the CEO that Iwata was.
Why does this non-gaming news get approved while the attempted extortion of black myth wukong gets denied?
So the story with wukong is not really about the game itself, but a controversy surrounding it. Same with this article. It isn't about any particular game, but about the industry at large which isn't really what N4G is about. typically this site is about strictly the games and sometimes things around them. So I'm wondering, why the double standard?
Probably because that story hasn't been confirmed to be true at this point. If it is true, I hope that it gets the coverage it deserves. But these day, people just spread all types of rumors and innuendo just to get likes.
you are correct, the extortion itself has yet to be 100% proven, but there are plenty of facts surrounding it that are perfectly factual and can be reported on.
I like to learn about how bosses in the industry handle situations. It’s relevant to gaming. Afaik N4G is not just about the games but news related to the industry as well.
