Well he also just compared his next game to Uncharted and The Division though...

That's the thing, he's contradicting himself. He suggests he's building a AAA game, then says he plans to keep his team at a AA size. With less than 100 people, it'll easily take 4-5 years to make an Uncharted/The Division scale AAA game. 

I do think he mentioned that, while the game will have elements of those two, he dosent want the game to be too big.I might be wrong though



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Who says you cant make a AAA with only 100 people? Wasnt Bloodborne made with 100 devolopers?

He makes great games that dont sell very well. Thats why they are expensive as shit now.

the Silent Hill franchise always sold below MGS mind you

True. But way above Kojimas other games.

The Zone of the Enders series sold 1.8m with only two games in the entries. The original 4 silent hill games sold around only 4.8 million in total.

Its not that much of a difference

MGS5 saga crossed 7 Million units, U4 probably probably will only reach 10 Million units lifetime

You can, it just takes awhile. Skyrim had about 100 devs and took 3 years to develop (longer including pre-production work), and even then it was a buggy mess at release, it would have took them at least another several months to fix most of the bugs. 

But this is bethesda

and thats by far his biggest success apart from a MGS game. Im not sure the VGC numbers are correct on the SH games.
