"That said, once the console version will be out, they will want to think about the next step, and they’ll consider a PC version too.
Tabata-san is also very interested in Steam, because it allows to reach a very different demographic from the one offered by consoles, so he’ll be looking at creating opportunities to use the platform in the future."
PC!!!! I knew it was going to happen with that FF Type-0 game announcement, and all that Dx12 stuff so...
Be it luminous or UE4 both are great choices. I think though if SE decides to make the switch UE4 would be the best choice. A lot of developers are becoming well acquainted with it's tools, and SE could easily find any studio to help take on the job. The engine is widely accepted.
This is actually really big news and out of nowhere too. I didn't think the luminous engine would be this difficult to work with. two out of three titles are switching game engines. UE4 is currently the most versatile engine, and outsourced developers can easily adapt to it's structure. It's probably the most feasible engine in their case, dealing with a balancing act of 4 IPs in development.
what's with the disagrees? there can still be more other uses for the assets. they put so much effort into it. a playabe side story character would be nice. maybe he's going to be one regardless. who knows how they want to do this.
I really hope they bring this actor back as a playable side character. Maybe as an expansion with side story. there's always expansions. american nightmare dlc was good.
Looks awesome! It also has both 1rst and 3rd person cameras to switch from.
""Sean Durrie, whose character model we used in the original trailers and whatnot, is still in the game, he's just playing a different character."
Oh cool, well At least the actor and character is going to be in the game after all.
From behind they look the same but me personally I liked the original guy better. i got too use to seeing him, over 2 years now. it felt like an unusual game with him in place. now it feels very much like an Action drama TV show, using casts from real shows. But we'll see how it goes, the gameplay and visuals are amazing as ever.
Right, but i'm almost definitively sure these games will be spaced out. If neither game launches next year then that puts 2017, 2018 and 2019 for game slots.
oh good 65%, so that means early 2017. so i wonder where that puts KH3 and the FFVII remake.
Trailer is "100% in-game" From beginning to end. I find that amazing to believe. The people look insanely detailed. I hope it stays this way throughout it's development.
Oh okay then. You know i could swear i read ready at dawn saying that the tech behind the order 1886 could be done on other platforms, including in their words "unannounced hardware". Maybe there's a chance they already knew about the NX.
When will the NX be revealed?
Big news. they are taking on a lot of projects at once though. they already have like 4 IPs in development already with no release dates.
Success in all manufacturer's hands. What makes up the sales figures of a specific brand doesn't necessarily mean brand loyalty; it's a collection of families and people. people that may be oblivious to the competition, and they have the right to choose or have both.
I really hope they upgrade this series.
All game companies have welcoming pages and videos for jobs, the process is still on a hand picking basis.
I'd be mighty pissed if i paid $1,000 for a flight to an interview only to get turned down.
The only fear that comes from switching is one's ability to adapt. and there isn't much of a difference when you have it setup right.
My configuration is setup to let the game flow start pouring into my hdd.
The indie community needs funding and gamers want games. it's win win.
"With a full open world game, with action-based combat, so many special effects and moving objects and characters, running at 1080p and 60 FPS would require a "top PC."
This statement is actually a little inaccurate, especially when they had access to Dx12 before all of us and even acknowledged it's performance boost then. second, he's also envisioning if this game was to launch today, by the time that this game launches things would be different.
