Which is why I don't get why they didn't make a real full blown infamous game this gen. I hope there next title is something 3rd person at least.Just launch/first year type stuff. Infamous 2 showed Sucker Punch have it in them.
Agreed. The old combat just aligned well with the rage and the general mood (stabbing stuff, grabbing stuff and ramming it into other stuff, wildly swinging around chains, etc...). There wasn't anything particularly great about it though. Especially in comparison to other action games like that. The new combat is just different, not dumbed down.
I'm one of those who would take anything Sucker Punch makes - Sly Cooper, Infamous, new IP. I can understand wanting to spread their wings and try something new though. They've been working on Infamous for a while now.Which is why I don't get why they didn't make a real full blown infamous game this gen. I hope there next title is something 3rd person at least.
Whatever it is, I hope it's not an open-world, third-person action-adventure with foliage everywhere.
It's a side step. It's clearly different than the old games, I don't know why people are trying to argue otherwise. But the old games were also not that deep. New GoW combat seems to have just as much to offer from what's shown so far.
JRPG by Japan Studio + genDesign. That's the dream.

You guys either didn't bother experimenting with the combat or at least didn't research how far it could go

I highly doubt GoW PS4's combat will reach what's in that video. And that's okay, it doesn't have to, but that's a step down to me.
GoW PS4 looks about as character action-y as the Arkham games
What is sucker punch up to?
Shuhei Yoshida played the game two years ago, so I wouldn't be worried. PSX reveal? Or will it cannabalize attention from Spider-Man/GOW/Days Gone?Lead writer taking its job a month ago is a bit worrying.

Not necessarily. We got no clue what's going on inside Sucker Punch right now, for all we now this could be a ND situation where they might be making another game.

That isn't dramatic at all.Or a Santa Monica situation where they cancelled a big game after years of work.
Shh! No rationality. Just drama.We dont know anything about the game. Horizon's writer joined like 4 years into development or something like that. it was really late.
Neogaframa instead of believeThat isn't dramatic at all.

Do what must be done. Sucker Punch hiring people clearly means things are going very badly.Neogaframa instead of believe
I'll make the thread
Should we be worried about Sucker punch
It'll have to be after my buy dreams and everybody's golf threads tho XpDo what must be done. Sucker Punch hiring people clearly means things are going very badly.
DmC from ninja theory has them beat.I can't think of a better melee combat system that's come out of a western dev.
Ha! You got my support!It'll have to be after my buy dreams and everybody's golf threads tho Xp
While they were no DMC's, Ninja Gaiden's or Bayonetta's, the God of War's did have quite a bit of depth, GoW3 in particular. Learning how to chain together ridiculous combos takes quite a bit of skill. I can't think of a better melee combat system that's come out of a western dev.
This is the sort of really dumb hot take that makes it hard to take you seriously.
Yoshida has played the game many times now.Yeah I'm sticking with Sucker Punch next game is a PS5 launch title.

Damn you really shut my argument down smh
You've been right this whole time

The ones that you've been flustered over for the past 2 pagesWe would've heard of layoffs if something like that happened.
That was largely based on the prior work of (and supervised by) Itsuno's team though and I wasn't a fan at all of most of their additions (especially the angel/demon mode stuff, which was bad when they did it in Heavenly Sword, let alone when they recycled it for DmC).
What argument? All you've been doing is posting a bunch of statements with no argument behind them and then when someone posts a reasoned reply, you basically just say "nuh uh" and then continue on. That's not an argument, that's shitposting.
It totally could. Just saying that nothing they've shown so far points to that.Ps4 GoW4 have different style of combat, doesn't mean it won't have its own high level combo like that video you posted. It might not look the same combo. But it can be as complex and deep on it's own.
GoW4 also have itd own unique tools like ability to call your axe anytime as well as support ability from the kid. The axe throw in particular looks very versatile. Apparently you can throw your axe and if you position Kratos so the enemy is in between kratos and your axe. You can hit the enemy from behind by calling your axe.

btw, Clever Beans studio (WipEout Omega Collection/When Vikings Attack!) is already working on something new https://twitter.com/RaveofRavendale/status/893456930215272448
that doesn't mean their new project is related to Sony, but still.
I think more studios will look at moving towards a multi game cycle, especially Sony's studios.
For example, while Last of Us 2 was in early development, Naughty Dog are at full production on Uncharted Lost Legacy, then now will move onto Last Of Us 2 fully.
Perhaps Sucker punch are hiring for their next project to get started early?

All roles are based at our central Manchester, UK studio where you will be working with our team of industry veterans.
?I wouldn't say that's a re-assuring example, haha.
I greatly disagree but that wasn't the point of what that person posted. That was why I questioned how it wasn't a god example. The point was to show people can be hired late in development.?
Whilst Horizon has a lot of things going for it, I don't think its story/character development is one of them.

Wut. Horizon has been praised for its characters and story many times. I loved it and it's by far Guerillas best story told.?
