Re: Shawn Layden Reveals Why He Left Sony PlayStation

doctommaso

@AdamNovice @Amppari It's obvious he didn't just get burnt out and "want a break". Why would he wait two years to let people know why he left, ignoring question after question about it all this time? Why would Sony usher him out the door and never post a thank you or an explanation for Layden's moving on? It's more than obvious he either lost his support at Sony and/or was not happy with some of the people he was working with and/or was forced out.

@BloodNinja I got through almost the whole game without blocking and parrying (there are a couple spots you have to). People said it was impossible, but I got tendonitis fairly early on hitting L1 to parry so much, so I had to change. Once I found own style (basically playing the combat closer to Souls but with more running and dodging), I took off with it. It's an amazing game, and I love all the Souls games, too (I go all the way back to King's Field, in fact). Sorry it didn't click for you, but maybe you could try an adjustment, too.

This game has many of the same exact animations and commentary from 10-15 years ago. I'm starting to get really annoyed with the lazy developer approach and Sony's tolerance of it. At least there finally is a stadium creator (which they should have made a decade ago). I'm so glad I got this on Game Pass and didn't spend any money on it.

Plus, Super Mega Baseball is more fun.
