Don't be upset because they have a great collection of wrpg studios lol.
yea that they just bought. No one here is denying. But everything that has come mostly out of Sony's first party is 100% organically created within sony. Either through long standing partnerships over multiple consoles like Insomniac, or through gradual progression of a studios development like Guerilla Games who makes a witcher style WRPG called Horizon.
God of war being a combat game it's new formula is very akin to wrpg. And honestly when it comes to JRPG it is a bummer for sure Sony isn't making those anymore. After Gravity Rush I think they saw that it was a better move to let Square, Atlus, Sega, Namco Bandai make their games and just make deals with them. Sometimes adding funding to the game.
But your outlook on sony seem very short sighted. Dreams came out this year and was met with critical acclaim, astrobot is being compared to the latest Mario game because of how good it is. Same with Atro Bot rescue mission VR. SACKBOY is a 80 on meta, and everyone who's "played" it seems to draw rayman comparisons which is a good comparison to make for a platformer.
It's just you dont like what they seem to sell a lot of which happens to be third person action/adventure games.
Ratchet getting a big budget is a also a big surprise after the lower budget 2016 movie tie in game.
Sony had a couple shooters in Blood and truth which reviewed well if your a VR person. And I hear that studio is working no a non-VR title something shooter related so?
Seriously this narrative you and others have against Sony because their popular games are in third person but forget all the other high quality games they make is really absurd.
I really hope you're not talking about outer worlds and fallout because both make me puke.
Honestly Outer worlds is the best wrpg I've played in a long time. If you have a PC play it on that, I did not expect to love it as much as I did. I think it's the humor/writing that really shines in that game. I think Obsidian is going to become a more top tier WRPG developer than people think. I honestly think they are better at making games than Todd and his crew.
