I can't decide what VR game to try first between Rigs and Eve:Valkyrie... and Battlezone... and Batman.... It's a good problem to have aye! :)

C-H-E-F3473d ago

I've heard a few times that batman is like a 45min-1 hour experience. I've also heard that Battlezone and Rigs is top tier games. I played Valkyrie and I just didn't like having to control the ship with my head It would've been better if we could use like the navigation controller and move controller for flying and shooting and allowed us to track the ships we want to shoot at with the visor. I won't pick up Valkyrie at the price point, maybe around 20bucks however it looks fantastic just I was nearly breaking my neck on that thing trying to aim and crap.

Anything but a sequel or remaster I suppose.

Hopefully this will renew interest in the franchise and Sony can see the potential.

jznrpg1d 3h ago

I’m sure for a sequel they would want to get Miyazaki for it and he’s a busy person, They could do it without him but he wouldn’t be happy with that and I doubt they want to upset him. Hopefully it lines up with his schedule. Who knows they could be working on it now but I won’t get my hopes up until something is announced.

At this point, I'm expecting Sony to endorse Yaoi fan-fic before they even entertain the idea of a remaster or sequel or even just a PS5 upgrade.

gerbintosh16h ago

You must have missed the story where FromSoftware stated they do not want to make a sequel or remaster of Bloodborne.

But then again, maybe Sony should force them to remaster the game because people who are forced to do things they dont like always put their best effort in. /s

So FromSoftware really went

“F*** no are Bluepoint making a remake”

To

“A YouTuber making an animated film? Of course”

Redgrave1d 4h ago

Say what you will about Jacksepticeye's involvement, but I suppose it comes down to how much creative freedom he has in making it.

Iron Lung, while not exactly in the same conversation as Bloodborne, was a perfectly serviceable and quite well made adaptation made by a YouTuber.

Jack at least understands the fan base and such so if he doesn't experience too much corporate interference or what you may call it, it could turn out pretty good.

MrBaskerville1d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

Wasn't it Markiplier that made Iron Lung?

And there's more to filmmaking and storytelling than understanding a fanbase. I want a good movie. Maybe he can do it, maybe he can't, we'll see. But i expect nothing.

Tapani1d 3h ago

What are you on about? Sony owns the IP, not FromSoftware. They have zero say in what is done with Bloodborne.

-Foxtrot1d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

No but it’s been said how they apparently didn’t want Bluepoint touching the game and Sony respecting their wishes

Michiel19891d 3h ago

oh the youtuber/streamer hate is back, i knew it before i read the comments.So fucking pathetic, acting like they aren't humans and can't do anything right.

-Foxtrot1d 2h ago

Lmao. Ooooft. Touched a nerve 😂

Michiel198919h ago

not really, its just that the same old tale gets repeated and repeated by a bunch people who have contributed nothing to the gaming industry and just mindlessly hate someone else who is actually trying to do something cool, but it can't be because they're a streamer/youtuber in your twisted mind.

-Foxtrot1d ago

Producing a film still puts you in the driving seat, you are responsible for so many things including picking the director, writer and the entire team to make it.

Making / producing, regardless, it’s still a big role.

gold_drake1d ago

to be fair, hes not making it per se.

and i guess hes a good fit for it, given how big of a fan he is
