Hidetaka Miyazaki revealed the main influences behind Elden Ring. He also discussed the Godfrey character and his great importance at length.
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
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.
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.
Nice summary on the interview. I am looking forward to the story and mythos especially. From what I’ve seen the world looks forbidding and dark with anguish, which make it interesting.
The Eternal Champion saga has so much potential for videogames, it's influence is everywhere and yet very few people know about it nowadays
At first when I read the Eternal Champion, I thought of the Sega Genesis fighting game. Then I thought there's no way he meant that forgotten mediocre game 😅
Michael Moorcock has been the inspiration, sometimes closer to plagiarism ( I’m looking at you Witcher) of so many movies and video games. I hope someday I can see his actual work represented in a film or game.
Even by From's standards that's a small head on Godfrey. Cool artwork though.
