Rare used to make fun, creative, original games. This gen they made....Sea of Thieves. |
I stopped reading after Sea of Thieves. You just proved yourself wrong. Sea of Thieves was built around creative freedom.
Silent Hill remake for PSVR2 would be a bombshell.

Why start "this gen?" Why not start since Microsoft acquired Bungie with the original Xbox when Alex Seropian left Bungie after creative differences? And the rest of history as Runa216 already covered some of it since you make it so easy. Also, Mojang makes more than just Minecraft, but employees were irate after Microsoft required them to concentrate on Minecraft. Rare was used to push Kinect, not allowing them to continue a legacy they build with Nintendo. And you have more developers who once worked exclusively with Microsoft and are now also working with Sony, but NOT the other way around such as Epic, Bungie, Remedy, Valve, etc. with projects outside of Microsoft's control. Why do you think that there has been a more variety of titles for the PlayStation platform than the Xbox? It's because Sony purposely allows a far less tighter control for those developers to make games that want and not heavily demanded by Microsoft in ALL GENS. But you had to make it "this gen" to shape your narrow field of view of justification. You're not fooling anyone but yourself.

Just two corrections.
From what is know Rare choose to focus on Kinect because they liked the novelty of it (and also let's not forget that almost anyone from Nintendo era was in the company anymore at that time).
And this creative freedom isn't even cut for this gen, at most the last third of it.

But however you want to define "creative freedom," at the very least Sony has allowed developers to make the decisions they need to make to fulfill the vision of a particular title. That is in contrast to creating and directing a product to appeal to the widest commercial audience.

Yes, every thing we know points to almost total freedom for devs (and sure some closing studios due to it) to the point Sony seemly pushed SSM to try a different IP but accepted when they wanted to make another GoW, and several other similar cases (but we will have some know folks in VGC pretending that now Sony is mandating that their devs milk the IPs).

If true that's good news. Of course it would be best if it was multiplatform but looking at how Konami has treated it's IP's i'd say it would be a good move. Sony would do them better justice than Konami by far. I just wish Suikoden was included in that list as well.

Agreed on all counts. I just bought suikoden II and III on my vita (PS1 Classics) and I have to say, DAMN!

Why not include other gens?
Umm because that matter has been resolved. Meaning that they give creative freedom to devs.
Honestly why are you trying to twist. We are talking about current not what MS was doing back in the DOS days.

Couple posts back you were concerned about FF starting on Nintendo 30 years ago (even if it became mainly a PS game on the last 20+ years) or MGS confusion. Now it only matters what happened on the last couple years? By that account then all these games that haven't released in over 5 years are ok to go to Sony.
