GymratAmarillo said: I choose to believe so too but I can't but think about Kamiya lol. Platinum Games didn't change after the Tencent acquisition, they made good games for the switch ant yet he left, people who were loyal to him also left to join him at what would be Clovers and now he is saying he doesn't have bad blood with PG but his creativity would have died if he stayed there LOL (so much for not having bad blood). The minimal of details could have triggered a change, maybe sony closing Haven if fairgame fails or fs becoming a ps studio and making all their games exclusive. |
I don't think Tencent owns Platinum Games from what I recall.
As for studio closures changing their mind, I really doubt that, its just the cost of business. Many of these independent studios who bomb will have no choice but to shut down. I do think Sony would do whatever it takes to retain From's top talent though, and that might mean offering them independence like Bungie, if it came down to that.
