It wasn't fine for me. I liked it a lot."Fine" is good enough for an indie title that cost 20 bucks on Steam.
But for a big studio big budget 70 euro pricetag, "fine" is a disaster. Also blaming twitter mob is poor reasoning. Twitter mobs didn't stop Hogwarts Legacy or Atomic Heart from selling gangbusters. You're not seriously thinking a meme video in twitter stopped millions of people from buying this game, do you?
Forspoken just wasn't good enough. It happens.
Hopefully they don't just go back to pre-2018 and actually get ripped apart.Good. The studio lacked talent and the games felt half baked.
PlayStation exclusives = death
These consultants must be making some crazy money from all these failed woke media projects.
Hey, better double the # of consultants next time, I bet then you’d really make a character people love.
I was surprised they were not after FFXVAfter Forspoken I'm not surprised.
I’m really glad to hear this news. Hopefully they can be integrated into one of the other business units under More capable leadership so we can start getting more regular numbered final fantasy releases. Imagine what creative business unit 3 could do with all that additional manpower.
it was due that stupid engine.Its crazy how much money and freedom a new start up studio was given within S-E.
I wholeheartedly agree with this, but sadly it seems like the West for whatever reason continues to influence many Japanese developers despite constant failures. I doubt they’ll ever truly learn as long as they “think” they can make money trying to emulate Western games.Japanese Devs should really stop trying to make "Western" games. They rarely ever do them well except Kohima.

I just wonder if this sort of thing is hurting “representation” more than helping it.These consultants must be making some crazy money from all these failed woke media projects.
Sad but true and Forspoken is exactly that: half brilliant, half shit.Good. The studio lacked talent and the games felt half baked.
Game probably needed 6-8M to break even, doubt it will get there
That does make sense and I understand, but it’s doesn’t seem like it does too many favors to their style of games I feel. Some can usually get away with it like Capcom, but I’m not sure if it works for others well.because is the biggest market.
The engine itself as XV showed had its merits. It was technically great last gen and the PC version of the game still looks very nice by todays standard.it was due that stupid engine.
How do you run this 10 years ago all in real time and end up with Forspoken.

Forspoken was a step backwards tech wise from XV, which is really bizarre.

Forspoken was a step backwards tech wise from XV, which is really bizarre. Think S-E just should completely focus on wide linear with some open zones going forward with their RPGs. Like XVI and I'd guess VII Rebirth. They clearly don't have the heart to go all in on open world, which is what it takes to make a game of that nature to not feel flawed and incomplete.
Uncle Phil is getting pretty serious lately.Is that a threat?
People like to mock EA for killing a bunch of studios, and rightfully so.Uncle Phil is getting pretty serious lately.
Even on gaf
I think the joke may of went over your head a littlePeople like to mock EA for killing a bunch of studios, and rightfully so.
But Sony isn't that far behind. And because they make pretty interactive movies, they fly under the radar.
Mockery is unnecessary. It killed the studio.I think the joke may of went over your head a little
Enjoy your console wars though I guess.
I gonna continue mocking forspoken instead
SE as a whole has some of the worst management in the industry. They clearly can not make a AAA game without increasing an already massive budget and delaying it several times.
So, not like Capcom?SE need to keep things simple, the way Capcom does. Make AAA games from big IP’s and your occasional AA game here and there, don’t try to be something you aren’t, Forget the GAAS, games for a "modern audience" and all that rubbish.
They really looked at REE and Twitter and said, "yep, this is what the western audience cares about." hahaha
