MS could compress their games on disc

raWfodog6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

Skyrim is still my favorite ES game. I’m playing through it again right now since I never finished it.

ActualWhiteMan5d ago

Yeah totally. Definitely won’t be hacking it Nintendo 🤞🏻

Gamers Concerned About Borderlands 4 Potentially Costing $80, Gearbox Chief Randy Pitchford Replies

Randy writes: "A) Not my call. B) If you’re a real fan, you’ll find a way to make it happen. My local game store had Starflight for Sega Genesis for $80 in 1991 when I was just out of high school working minimum wage at an ice cream parlor in Pismo Beach and I found a way to make it happen."

*no one buys the game*

Randy: "Where are our real fans?"

*gamers stare back*

GamingExplained10117h ago

I will be doing what I always do and wait for a sale or buy used on Facebook marketplace.
I haven't paid full price since Metal Gear Solid 2 back in 2001.

Yui_Suzumiya12h ago

Paid $250 for Clannad on Switch. A 25 year old visual novel, lol. Although it was the Collector's Edition from LRG.

Redemption-6412h ago

To be fair it isn't his call, if Take 2 comes out and say Borderlands 4 and GTA will be $80, there is literally 0 Randy can do about it

anast11h ago

It's the 'real fan' thing that people don't like.

Christopher7h ago

I'm only addressing his words, which is 100% something he can control.

Eonjay10h ago

Totally wrong response. It would be better to explain that for the product they are producing, they feel this price is fair to both gamers and developers,writers and staff. Explain that they don't have an enormous exectuive or publishing overhead. And then find a way to give content away for free to add value to the purchase. Even if later DLC is paid, the game should include on or two free DLC packs.

Notellin2h ago

Borderlands 3 was enough reason for me to be skeptical. His comment guarantees I won't buy the game.

Real fan? What the actual f*** man

Does he actually read back what he writes before he posts

neutralgamer199221h ago

I was the biggest BL fan. I played the original solo for so many times. I pre ordered BL2 that loot chest edition and loved it. I bought BL3 on sale and never even touched it's DlC and have very little interest in 4th. For a series that started so strong it's just amazing how much nonsense this series has become with idiot choices

toxic-inferno19h ago

It is amazing how similar my story is to yours.

Many of us bought Borderlands 3 out of a sense of nostalgia for how much we enjoyed Borderlands 2 (which is, to this day, a great game). But despite buying everything Borderlands have released, the last time I wasn't disappointed by something they produced was the Tiny Tina DLC for Borderlands 2. That was over a decade ago...

PRIMORDUS20h ago

It doesn't come with Denuvo on PC, while checking Steam.🏴‍☠️

neutralgamer19929h ago

Toxic

It truly is sad what this company has become. BL went from one of my favorite games to now I don't even care that a 4th is coming out. I will pick it up when 4th one has a complete edition with all the dlc and patches for under $30

I can't believe 2k kept randy in his post even after the acquisition since he is pure negative PR for the studio and it's games. Don't get me wrong randy gave part of the company to long time employees when embracer bought them originally so I guess he has some good in him because he made bunch of people millionaires at employee level. I just wish he would stop saying all the other nonsense

Goodguy011d 4h ago

Still hate this guy's PR work lol. Hopefully game has gameshare.

1nsomniac18h ago(Edited 18h ago)

He’s a scumbag. Check out his personal history unless it’s been scrubbed from the internet (as well as his hard drive). Don’t know how this guy has survived in the industry so long. He’s a slimy lying scumbag. Not to be trusted and shouldnt be given the time of day. Don’t know why anyone would buy anything he touches!

gold_drake1d 4h ago (Edited 1d 4h ago )

herez a little magic trick Randy boy i wont buy it if its 80 dollars.

cause that means its gonna be more expensive for euro land.

i am a fan, but i like my money more. ha

Neil Druckmann Reveals He’s Working on an Unannounced Game at Naughty Dog

Neil Druckmann, the creative director of The Last of Us, is working on a new, unannounced game at Naughty Dog.

RaidenBlack1d 10h ago

I know they've expertise in third person games.
But given the lack there of in PS catalog, I'd want the other project to be a narrative first person ND game.
Look, there are lots of 3rd person Sony games in variety of flavors. And ND is already doing intergalactic. And since they're pretty expert at gameplay and tech wise in whatever they do, they can easily venture a new genre and ship a first person game/shooter.

VenomUK1d 10h ago

Hopefully the lead character is a boss babe who will challenge the patriarchy.

RaidenBlack1d 8h ago

So, judging from the dislikes, hardcore Sony fans here don't like first person games, anymore?

arkard1d 7h ago

Let naughty dog do what they are great at, 3rd person games

crazyCoconuts1d 2h ago

I don't really have a big opinion on first vs third person perspective. That's one of the least important things to me when rating how much I like a game

Flewid63823h ago

Sounds horrible. The downvotes are right on this one.

badz14922h ago

I actually hate 1st person. very hard to associate with a character you only see their hands most of the time.

OtterX1d 10h ago

funny thing is with failures like Concord and soon to be Marathon, Factions could have been Sony's guaranteed huge success with a shooter! I don't ever play online shooters anymore, but I would have come out of shooter retirement for a new Factions game.

RaidenBlack10h ago(Edited 10h ago)

{ coming from the above thread }
So PS Fellas hate first person games now? (Understandable)
But praise Killzone and Resistance series, as well?
And hope for a return of first party first person games? ~ but from where? insomniac is deep in marvel territory, guerilla is deep in aloy territory ... suckerP are not as big to undertake that change + dedicated to Ghost series
The only options are ND and Santa Monica, who are rumoured to be involved in parallel projects. ~ so take your pick.
And the other 'new' studios at Sony are not that hot right now with knee deep in live service fiasco

It’d be cool if they bought the Parappa licence and made Parappa 3 that’d be the real good timeline

Wait I thought they cancelled a game? Or did they announce another project?

pwnmaster30001d 17h ago (Edited 1d 17h ago )

I’m assuming it’s the unannounced game in the title you posted.

“Naughty Dog Reportedly Canceled a Single Player Game This Year, But Another Unannounced Game Is Still in the Works“

Lightning771d 7h ago

OK I gotcha. That makes sense.

jznrpg1d 4h ago

Devs cancel games all the time early stages if it doesn’t turn out the way they envisioned it. We just don’t hear about every one of them.

Notellin12h ago

Yeah only a narcissist like Druckmann would announce a game this early that has a 99% chance of being cancelled.

badz14922h ago

so a 2028 release at the soonest

Lightning7722h ago(Edited 22h ago)

Some speculate it could be Uncharted spin off. It's already 3 years in production so yeah 2028 maybe 2027 at the absolute earliest but most likely 28 release.

Also to add. kojimas next game that's not OD is said to be 5 to 6 years out for PS. That metal gear inspired game. These games are just too far off it seems.

pwnmaster30001d 17h ago

This dude is busy.
So who is running intergalactic?

Knushwood Butt1d 15h ago

'We have several directors on Intergalactic. I work with two game directors: Matthew Gallant and Kurt Margenau, [and] I have a co-writer in Clair Carré.'

pwnmaster30001d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

Okay you got me, I skimmed the article and video .
Thanks lol

Cuckmann is going to be Naughty Dog's downfall.

Going to be? The damage is already done lol.

Sunlight is good for you, I promise. lol

vTuro2411h ago

Damage has been done but it's not too late yet if they dump him now. Probably won't happen though. It's sad, honestly. We'll see what happens after Intergalactic. That game is going to have a huge impact one way or another.

StormSnooper11h ago(Edited 11h ago)

Yes because they didn’t make some of the greatest games. Right, we all just agree to live in your fantasy from now on.

Flewid63823h ago

yall say that about ever developer and then they end up becoming more successful lol

mkis00721h ago

Downfall? If anything he is a huge reason they are on the map! A few apes don't like the material hasn't stopped his games from being massive hits.

DarXyde21h ago

I have grievances with Druckmann, but he does deserve some benefit of the doubt. He's been in crucial roles at the company through all of their successes.

Maybe wait and see?
