They wont. He needs to build a new studio first. And even with this announcement it will not be released in a year or two. With Sony’s support he has now totally freedom and I can not wait what he will do with it.

he would never have gotten the money he needs to create something great. Kojimas games also have a lot of presentation, storytelling and budget. A castlevania like game can be easily done on an indy scale.

He is building this Studio as a AAA Game so it will probably take 3-4 years^^

Yes there is. FFVII was also closed in the beginning. You only had certain places to go to. Only during the story this map opened up. Problem of an Open world is not the diskspace but creating the world. This will take time and that is why an episodic game makes sense.

Yes it was about having a female lead. But the reasoning was totally different. There is nothing strange about having a female lead. The problem we are facing right now is to create a “right” female lead.

FUCK YEAH.

This was a really cool video and it even showed how diverse Videogames have already become.

giving this video she has already been toned down. So why shold there bere M rated concerns. This is not the real Bayonetta.

• BEST EMOTIONAL ARTISTIC GAME ACHIEVEMENT

Ok here is the problem with this.

Here is the funny thing. DOAX2 sold better in the West than it sold in Asia. Yes most of it had to do with being on a MS console but still it sold better in the west. Also let us not forget how much play asia is not profiting from this as well. There is certainly a market for these games and these games to be…

Ok we know have several examaples of Japanese delveopers fearing social outrage. Famous examples are:

If this influences the metacritic score and if he calls something sexist for no reason but his own opinion yes then there is a problem because it influences games and games development.

No it is not. These games are niche. They sell like 20k copies. I know many people have a wrong picture of Japan but still. Games like these here are not mainstream...

There was this dragon crown controversy started by Kotaku But yes you are right. This was more of an general statement regarding media sites right now.

Raiding polls to piss everyone off like 4 chan did here is not really a good thing. But this is the internet and luckily in reality no one cares about a Gamefaqs poll^^

The problem we have right now is that publishers are getting afraid to even release this kind of content in the west because they fear social outrage.

Nudity is not allowed on consoles in Japan. Nudity means an Adult rating and this is a no go on consoles. For this you have real porn games as well but on PC.

This is pure bullshit.

They do not fear government censorship here but social outrage is has become a way more powerful tool regarding censorship.
