The Last Panty Raid.
RIP in peace, Panty Raid Engine
Well because Phanta Rei was supossed to be the successor to MT Framework, and that engine got an excellent reputation with gamers, while UE3 was not the best choice in many cases.Almost. I'll call Deep Down dead if it's a no show at PSX, and Panta Rhei if DMC5 isn't running on it.
Nah, different team altogether. The last thing the DMC director worked on was DMC4 Special Edition. However 4SE didn't include the entire DMC4 team. The last some worked on were Dragon's Dogma and RE6, and a few were part of Itsuno's DmC supervision team.
Revelations 2, Umbrella Corps, SFV, Dead Rising 3, Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi, Dragon's Dogma Online. Upcoming include RE7, RE2 Remake, Dead Rising 4, Sengoku Basara: Sanada Yukimura-den. That's about it, excluding handheld titles and ports.
RE7 is on the RE Engine, which is apparently also their dedicated VR engine.
UE4 is a great engine. Super customizable too. Whatever fancy lighting tech they've made for Panta Rhei they can possibly just graft onto UE4. Why shouldn't DMC5 run on it?
he's probably still savoring the last guardian delayLet me ask Y2Kev
Dead Rising 3 and 4.
People can still hold out hope, but Deep Down they know it's dead.After that Neo rumor a few months back that mentioned Deep Down, people were holding out their last bit of hopes to see the title at either PS4 Pro meeting or Sony's pre-TGS presser.
Nioh came back after ten years.
Deep Down's initial reveal reminded me of those BS trailers I saw early in the PS3's life.
RE7 isn't on Panta Rhei?
Am I wrong or deep down was playable at one conference some time ago?

It did. If I'm not mistaken it's TGS 2014. You can listen to 8-4 podcast around that time for an impression. The demo sounded very cool. It controlled very well but the best thing was the damage recognition on enemies. Basically, you can inflict damage on any part of enemy and it will react differently.
We still had glimpses of Deep Down this year:

Okay. Then let me ask this question from the people who are mentioning FFXV, TLG and Nioh.
Do you guys honestly believe that current Capcom is even capable (both financially and talent wise) of pulling something similar with Deep Down? Or more importantly, will it even be worth it?
I mean with TLG and FFXV they had the pedigree and people were already interested in the titles. But that doesn't seem to be the case with Deep Down.
this. keep hope aliveA game is not dead until it is announced dead.
The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy XV and Ni-oh should prove so.

"We're a developer, we should write our own engine" has been a terrible idea for at least two generations. It's not just the huge waste of resources; they're so BAD at it.
MT Framework was pretty good. That's probably why people didn't immediately write off Panta Rhei when Capcom announced it."We're a developer, we should write our own engine" has been a terrible idea for at least two generations. It's not just the huge waste of resources; they're so BAD at it.
