probably 'cancelled' it to switch it over to scorpio

>>377297513
maybe the game will ge good now.

>>377297331
this is microsoft, they probably didn't think it was enough of a zelda-killer and are now putting a team on it who convinced them it will not only kill zelda but dark souls as well. Then eventually the microsoft suits will find something wrong with it and cancel it again.

Good. Microsoft can finish this shit while Kamiya works on his Switch game.

>>377297513
The game looked like absolute shit when it was being developed by Platinum. Maybe it'll be better now.

>So it's continuing, but without platinum behind it, the people who know what the fuck they're doing, meaning that the game will probably be released buggy and incomplete, kinda like how Duke Nukem Forever got handed to different studios only to end up in the hands of gearbox who do not give a single shit and just wanted to release the game while dick kickem was at all still relevant
>Is just another RPG where you roam fields and kill large enemies without platinum

I hope this is just bad phrasing on the tweet's part but if it isn't I'm fucking mad, if not particularly surprised at what microsoft did.

>>377297773
>while Kamiya works on his Switch game.

As if he won't be crying to bed someone is gonna make his dream game better than he could. First he gets cucked out of DMC3 which ends up as fan favourite and genre defining and now some other faggot taking his dream game away.

JUST

>>377297513
I am sure that assets and everything including designs are in Microsofts hands and they are gonna just put it all together and finish the game themselves as it was soo it doesn't matter if Platinum isn't involved anymore but maybe they scrapped whole Kamiyas work and started from the beggining then it does matter and they can fuck off. Its like Prey all over again probably lol

>>377297915
>core gamers
You mean cod and fifa kiddies?

>>377297915
Platinum are generally garbage like no joke, Vanquish and W101 was their only good games.

>>377297331
>Entrusted MS team
>AKA a bunch of Interns who have to patch the game MS's very will
expect the game to turn into a total western turd
this is why kamiya left

>>377297331
>This misterxmedia-tier retard

kek

They're sitting on a copyright like Rockstar have been with Agent. I suppose MS have to keep Xcucks stringing along since Phantom Dust didn't do it.

>>377297331
>Platinum isn't involved
>developed from the ground up again
I look forward to it being cancelled in 2-3 years.

Not unplausable.

Didn't they have creative disagreements with MS? They wanted it to look good and Platinum wanted it to run good.

>Dream game
Originally it was a game about monsters fighting monsters, then a game about a little girl riding dragons, and then dudebro dragon coop.

I doubt the cancelled project was anything near his dream game anymore.

>>377297331

They should rename it Scalebound: JUST

>>377298467
>Originally it was a game about monsters fighting monsters

Nah it was always dragons, like what you said in the 2nd part was the plan. Either way this WAS his project and it's been taken away. He's probably gonna kill himself if this shit ends up being a hit

>your boss fired you
>he then took your almost-finished works to other people

fuck you David

microsoft being incredibly shitty to game developers? how suprising

>>377297883
afaik the only reason it became shit, was the co-op mode thing. The orginal shouldn´t have this but MS wanted it.

Poor Kamiya.

>>377298690
It looks shit even without coop.

>>377298641
All of that turned out to be false lmao

>>377297331
>The IP is alive
No one cared about the IP. Does it even count as an IP without a single game made of it?

No, it was real but they turned back on it when the internet exploded in their face.

scraped everthing and started again? too bad

>>377298994
Why did they even do that?

>>377298893
Nah, it was all real, they just went back on all of it before the thing actually launched.

>>377298090
>western turd
I hope your not implying it looked good before just because Kamiya was involved

>>377299115

Do what?
Try and get rid of used game sales as its one of the largest factors eating away at console incomes, way bigger than piracy on PC - or why did they backpedal on it due to public outrage so big it essentially killed the console anyway?

>>377299216
Sorry, you're right, I should have worded it better. Why did they have this thing where it was gonna be always online?

>>377297331
So the main appeal of the game (being made by Kamiya and Platinum) is now gone.

Who exactly will buy this game?

>>377299292

To gathered data off of you ofcourse, same as Win10, and then use that data, abuse that data and then sell it too.

>>377299032
does that make mustard gas?

>>377297331
kek, funny enough i was one of the plebs unironically interested in seeing this game complete. Probably utter shit but meh.

>>377299292
They saw how successful steam was and wanted to replicate that on console. Only they were years too early. Irony is that that is the path consoles are going down now.

In other words, not Platinum. Removing the literal only reason anyone cared about that shit at all.

>>377299359
Me, if it's good.
And if Platinum is out, maybe it can be good.

Is this real? I hope they don't give it back to those retarded japs.

>get huge budget to make a game for M$

Nice contrarian opinion

>>377298215
Not him but some people are conditioned to think that certain threads MUST have certain posts. Sometimes it's not that they think it's funny, it's just their "le board culture" kind of thinking.

No fucking shit. I've said it in every thread, Microsoft is fucking hurting for exclusives right now, they're not going to just give up on three years of work. They're going to make the game an open world RPG instead of a shit action-RPG where you mash Square and sometimes Y like in Automata, put in a main character that isn't totally fucking retarded, then remove the 4 player coop because literally nobody gives a toilet squirt about playing a Platinum game in coop.

>>377303256
They were the ones that wanted co op in the 1st place.

>>377301819
>It's MS's fault the game is dead
>And not Platinum literally designing the same fucking game over and over again

>>377297981
Vanquish, W101 and Bayo 1 and 2 are amazing games. The only truly bad games they've made are licensed shit like TMNT.

>>377303409
That's what they were paid to do by MS.

>>377303503
Yeah and they didn't do it, so MS booted their worthless asses and are getting a team who actually knows what the fuck they're doing.

Platinum is a one trick pony; they know how to make games run at 45-53 FPS and make decent combat systems. Scalebound ran like shit and had a watered-down combat system.

>>377298586
It was never about any of this just a about a girl raising a dragon

>>377303658
>"We want an open world RPG with coop with the top of line graphics"!
Then why give it to Platinum in the 1st place?

I'm pretty sure nobody is going to give half a hot fuck about Scalebound if Platinum, and Kamiya in particular, aren't involved.

>>377303491
>Bayo 1

Forced QTE's consistently in cutscenes makes it garbage

>>377304416
not really

So, they fucked up Hideki's dream game by forcing him to change protag and make it open world with multiplayer and then cancelling it stealing 4 years from one of the most talented game designer in the industry. And now they want to revive game's corpse just to make some half assed game by some C-tier team.

>>377297418
At this point how can you even unironically make this post?

I really don't think sonybros are desperately trying to "beat microsoft" at this point since MS themselves aren't even trying to participate right now.

>>377304621
>MMMMM YUM KAMIYA YOUR CUM IS SO YUMMY MMMMMMM!!!!!
Fuck off. Platinum hasnt made a good game in 7 years. They are shit now. This game wouldnt be good even if "grorious nippon" made it

>>377306083
w101 was made in 2013 though

>>377298690
The combat looked like shit

>>377299115
It doesn't even matter at this point, the minute they did that, they lost console gen

>>377297418
wow really good joke

Scalebound is alive

rip PS4

>>377306083
Nier just came out last month

Scorpio exclusive

>>377307629
And the combat was as shallow as ever
