Now, when will I get to play it? WHO KNOWS. I got NieR Automata, Horizon, and Toukiden 2 on my shelf, practically unopened thanks to the backlog. I've barely started Yakuza 0, for crissakes. Only recently have I started Tales of Berseria in earnest. And then there's more. I beat Gravity Rush 2, like, a week ago as part of my feeble attempts to keep up with releases and go through my recent backlog as quickly as I can, but man... I kinda don't want more Gravity Rush at the moment to be honest. I kinda just want to move on. Do I ignore it for now and pick it up later, or do I sit down and try to speed through this content as quickly as possible (which will undoubtedly expose and exacerbate Gravity Rush 2's many, unfortunate, design flaws - just like going through the main game as quickly as possible did)?. Man, 2017's release schedule is brutal....
P.S. Seriously; to anyone who hasn't played Gravity Rush 2 yet but wants to: when you DO get around to playing it, take your time. Play it like a proper open world. Waste time enjoying what you like and avoiding side, and story, missions when they're annoying instead of thinking you can power through them. You'll just frustrate yourself.
They may be a fledgling console market, but they're veterans at PC game development. Have you seen Tencent's Monster Hunter Online? While Capcom is farting around with 3DS visuals in 2017, Tencent built the Chinese PC version of Monster Hunter (FOR Capcom; its not a shady ripoff. Capcom just wanted in on that market and couldn't do this without a partner), Tencent built a CryEngine 3 powered STUNNER. If you follow foreign MMOs, than you've seen stuff like GodSlayer and Moonlight Blade that are just ****ing BEAUTIFUL. Yingpei Games was initially established as Epic Games China, and they're making on games that are obviously stunning too (I'm hoping their 3rd person shooter, Mercury, ends up being pretty cool). And y'know, some developers contribute to AAA console games - if people read the credits in their games, they may have noticed studios like XPEC, who worked on titles like almost all of the Uncharted games and Final Fantasy XV.
Needless to say, its good of Sony to go after the region's developers Lost Souls Aside obviously looks super promising, and Project Boundary looks really cool too. War Rage actually looks pretty neat - like someone inserted a more "stylish action game"-type hero into a Dynasty Warriors-esque world.
... Actually a lot of these look kind of promising! And HECK YES, Rocket Punch is bringing Code Hardcore to the PS4! I backed that on Kickstarter! IT LOOKS AWESOME and its not like anyone else is making a new Metal Warriors or Cybernator!
This lineup is actually a lot better than when Sony showed off a slew of Korean PS4 games (from G-Star last year?), which amounted to a bunch of stuff that was way more like Qurare Magic Library and not at all like Blade & Soul, Black Desert Online, Peria Chronicles or... well anything you WANT from super talented, big-shot Korean devs. Hopefully, Playstation steps up their relationships with S.Korea soon enough; their efforts with Chinese devs is seriously a huge improvement
