| JRPGfan said: I thought you were gonna talk about marketing and hype levels, or 1st party games with focus on story telling focus. That said these days, your right, a big part of the success is probably from listening to developers, makeing developement as easy as possible, and just giveing their studios freedom and time to make great games. |
Yes, but you forgot I'm weird.
In all seriousness though, I believe that the storytelling quality of many first-party releases from Sony over the last decade or so and their attitude of allowing their first-party studios a great deal of latitude to make the games they want to make are closely related. The best stories come from the heart. They come from a place of sincerity and a willingness to take risks and maybe say something controversial every once in a while.
