Forums - Gaming - Crytek: “As a company we can’t just make shooters,” says Yerli

VG247

Speaking in an interview with CVG, Yerli said Crytek is open to making new experiences for players, starting with Kingdoms, it’s game currently in development for Microsoft.

“As a company we can’t just make shooters, we need to breed genuinely new forms of entertainment and interactive experiences, and I think Kingdoms is a new interactive entertainment experience,” he said. “Working with Microsoft allows us to do something really new and awesome from our perspective, and from gamers’ perspective I think they’ll have a very different experience with Kingdoms.

“We’re looking at new challenges for the company and thinking about what experiences and types of games people may want to play. Whatever it is, we will try to do. The genre may not even exist yet for that matter, so what we’re keen on is games that offer new experiences for every moment the gamer plays.

“This has been at the core of the evolution of new IPs at all of our studios.”

Woot! Kingdom isn't a shooter :D



Sig thanks to Saber! :D 

Can't even fit in an already existing genre? Really interesting if true.



Am I the only one that read the title as "we just can't make shooters?"



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

The Crysis 2 beta still proves they can't make shooters.  



Well, Crytek is known for making bold claims. So far, they couldn't hold any of them.



updated: 14.01.2012

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

Haha kinda true.

When the reviews come out that's when I'll be seeing if Crysis 2 can live up to Crytek's bold claims

I'd rather play Crysis War then COD4 online and I own both.

I also misread it as that, I think it's more accurate that way
