The game lords of the fallen 2 wishes it was

Interesting seeing Sega sign for the publishing rights after the studio got dumped by Netease. Seems like this game is being sent out to die by releasing in October and that close to Phantom blade 0. I have said before that with Netease dumping these studios I think that there’s an opportunity for publishers to sign already partially made games and just test the waters. I still think that this model could be a boon for PlayStation, their 2nd party deals this gen have fallen out of the floor in favor of the live service model. PlayStation might have the opportunity to get some great pr by signing these teams to a publishing deal while also getting some more of the older ps3 style energy of games. You can bet your money that Sega won’t touch Nagoshi and gangs of dragon since they have RGG but i could see PlayStation coming in being the good guys signing a deal to publish the game and get more 2nd party games when a lot of the fans have been wanting more single player games. I realize it’s not as simple as just signing the teams but just think this would be an interesting idea.

@darylb24 you know ball my friend

@Gaymer90 can’t fault you for being skeptical of fable. Yes I am well aware of how long that ip has been gone and Xbox’s wish washy nature as a whole, but I’m more so looking at the potential reach of Fable. Playground while being just a racing studio in the past is still arguably Xbox’s best studio and everything from the gameplay of fable it seems like it’ll live up to the hype. I also think of all the games that are coming out in February Laufey will be just fine. I more so looking at a game like Metro being hurt. I just think that out of all of Xbox’s first party games this is the one that seems like it can live up too the hype.

This isn’t really shocking. Fable is a big AAA game and not just that Playground had to build this game out. For all signs it seems like it’s money well spent. Also will say I think some PS fans (no one really on this website but in general) are underestimating how big fable could be.

This game is gonna tap into the mainstream audience. The beta just felt right and vs say a game like invincible vs which is a game I love but this game is just fully AAA in the best way. I also love the approach of 2nd party live service game that PlayStation is taking with this. Have a unique experience and targeting a specific crowd of players.

@Swandivetotheasphalt yes it’s only on ps5 where they are directly competing on but with fable being a full multiplatform game you have to take the other platforms into consideration. Also will say separate from that Fable if it reviews well and all the other games in this window review well Fable will be fine. Sad as it is for me to say think Metro will be hurt most by this.

@Swandivetotheasphalt if any Xbox game has the potential to do high numbers. It is fable.

@darylb24 assuming all games are great and review well Laufey will be fine, with it being a ps5 exclusive it’s going to dominate sales on ps5. Fable might be hurt with ps5 sales but assuming both games review well Fable is going to do very well on PC.

@AI-Generation can’t do a new Mario, but will a new xenoblade game suffice?

Love too see it. Santa Monica is out here running laps around Naughty Dog releasing more than one game this generation. While I was hoping Santa Monica was making a new ip at least this is a spin off with some unique gameplay aspects with Faye. Also kinda cool seeing Xbox’s best studio and PlayStation’s best studio going head to head in the same month.

Not shocked but still is disappointing. Think Fable actually has a shot at being fully on disc considering it doesn’t have a internet required or Content download required

I was and am still overall skeptically optimistic about this game but will say on my personal most anticipated list after reading some of the previews and certain gameplay mechanics. Still think choosing to release this game in September is adding unnecessary pressure too it. It going gold this far ahead is a good sign. Hope it ends up being so good it can hold its own in the oncoming onslaught in September.

@Rich33 good RPGs make it so your choices matter and you can’t do everything in on play through. You said you don’t like branching storylines and that’s literally one of the main things that makes an rpg a rpg. Go play other genres of games.

@Meowmixes98 and Wolverine, Onimusha, amongst others.

Happy they are self publishing and are getting physical day one unlike Alan wake 2.

@Dogbreath F off man. Gaming as a whole is awful for the environment. Dont act like its just physical games that are the issue.

@Boxmonkey you do realize most of these types of studios fail right?

@Rich33 then don’t play RPGs fam

@Oram77 mean across all previews it stated that what truly is exceptional is the dialogue and choice and writing which is very hard to show off in just 8 minutes. But overall your energy is spot on.

Always excited for a well previewed game and hope it is very good…but on the other hand why is everything in September?!?! Dawnwalker, Onimusha, Wolverine, Control Resonant, orbitals. Include Zero Company and Galactic Racer as well. Just why.

Hope the physical at least has the single player mode fully on disc but after yesterday I’ll take anything I can get for the next year and a half if I’m being honest.

@Flaming_Kaiser when available 1000% yes

@ThePlaystationStan that’s not going to happen for a long time. My physical copy of games will last for a good amount of time. And I will absolutely adjust…..to being fully on pc with maybe a switch 2 game that’s fully on card. PC is growing and this will drive a decent amount of people to pc. No price for online, way more options and sales, and get the vast majority of games. Even more so now that most 3rd parties have stopped doing timed exclusives.

@Vertere doesn’t make it right or a good precedent

@MrPeanutbutterz exactly this. Trying too come from this in a moral superiority standpoint is really stupid when gaming as a whole is objectively terrible for the environment but yet people still play games.

@ThePlaystationStan wow continue to play defense for a billion dollar corporation. They can’t come and take my physical copy that’s the whole point. It is a big deal considering people spent their hard earned money on a product and it’s getting taken away, specifically with Sony taking away digit movies. People like you saying it’s not a big deal is a major reason why things in media are as bad as they are

@ThePlaystationStan idk owning a proper physical release is a pretty valuable thing in a time when Sony is removing movies that people bought on their digital service…..

@ThePlaystationStan you being a woman doesn’t have anything too deal with what you said being stupid. Bringing up environmental concerns when you are using a device that is just as bad.

@twitchtvpat no I’m saying that physical games were the main reason why I have mainly been a ps5 gamers and now that they are taking that away I have no reason too remain on PlayStation.

Time to fully into pc and steam lol

Time to go fully over too pc boys! Play what I have on ps5 right now and then say hello to Gabe

Still is wild how the only proper physical release for this game apparently and Indiana Jones is the switch 2 version.

Of all the games that are coming out in September that stand to at least hold their own Onimusha certainly stands a better chance then say Dawnwalker or Control Resonant. Fire Emblem will probably be fine and is not really part of this conversation will say.

Wrong ***** choice to make last of us

Easily my most anticipated game for the rest of the year. It’s the prime example of what PlayStation should be doing in the live service space. Making a smart bet with a partner developer in an open part of the market.

Reality is probably in the middle. Is Xbox experiencing a record of pre orders for gta 6, yes. But in the vast majority of the pre orders on ps5, yes.

Will be seated for the physical release

Not saying I won’t ever get gta 6, that’s crazy. But I am in no real rush and can wait for a sale or online.

@Oram77 Sony needs a healthy balance.
The problem wasn’t them doing live service, it was how. It was having 12 games some of them in the same genre. It was buying studios like Firewalk and Haven. It was thinking that Concord was going to be a Star Wars level ip for them. It was having single player focused teams making live service games.

@Oram77 it also was significantly cheaper to make which is an important note

I appreciate this. I love RGG wisely reusing assets making different games, but it’s nice too see a studio that really grew into their own this generation aim big with a big ambitious game.

Very unfortunate. While Destiny does need to be put on ice it shouldn’t have been like this. I truly hope Sony gives Bungie the runway to pull a Rainbow Six Siege style combat. I know it’s much easier said then done but marathon does have a solid core.

@GirlVersusGame at launch Alan wake 2 didn’t get a physical release but a year after it did.

I hate this with every bone in my body but I low key appreciate Rockstar announcing this before pre orders start so that way I know I don’t need to even consider buying gta 6 this fall.

A delay is usually always the right call. I want the game to be better but it pretty skeptical with how much pandering the ceo does. Also yes it would have gotten destroyed this fall but low key it’s not like Q1 is much better. I hope the game is good and it sells well if it’s good.

@Rambo-kind lol oh sweetie….. it’s “hype” is definitely questionable.
