Here's a direct link to PCGamer for people who don't twitter.
The only thing of note is the quote from Miyazaki.
Does anyone else that read the article find this interviewer's question very strange?
fromsoft has been making very successful releases repeatedly along with a huge dlc about to drop and you ask them if they are worried about being laid off? what a stupid piece of garbage this guy is
*i may have been rage baited...
Naturally the writer is avoiding the rainbow elephant in the room.
Any Japanese company that has a prominent Western (aka CCP) branch will be affected by it.
Part of the reason why From hasn't been infected is because their Western branch is small.
I have the feeling Fromsoft will certainly get worse in the future since they try to get a bigger audience and thats usually not a good sign. Not a fan of their openworlds just not great for the invasion mechanic which was unique to their games. And since Dark Souls 1 they made it harder and harder for invaders. Now you cant even invade single hosts anymore unless they use a certain item. Thats one of the signs the pvp audience isnt their core audience anymore, when they make it fail safe for the normies to enjoy pve. Even tho you could always play offline in earlier games but then you just dont have messages/coop, which was at least a trade off.
Im not sure the pvp audience was ever their core audience.
Maybe not but there is no big reason to buy the game if the pve challenge is all you want if you can also pirate it. And the invasion mechanic was the reason why I got 500hours+ out of dark souls 3 which would have been otherwise less than 100hours.
Of the two Miyazakis I know, he’s easily the best. My parents gave birth to me, but FromSoftware is what made me a man.
What made you a man was video games?
Jeeze maybe I’m on the wrong board, but that should not be the case.
Maybe dating sims have just gotten that advanced? Lol.
