Jan 16, 2025 · Sony just gave them a big pile of coal :( Bluepoint is a very talented studio, I hope no one there gets fired. Quick Jump Gaming Forum Gaming Hangouts EtcetEra Forum EtcetEra Hangouts Trending Threads Latest threads

Jan 16, 2025 · No disrespect to Bluepoint, but I agree. Please stop having Bluepoint remake other games with extremely strong art directions and identities. IMO they're 0-2 in that regard and it's not that they're not up to the task, is that it's an unwinnable scenario. Let them keep trying to build their own game from the ground up.

Jan 16, 2025 · Sony Group Corp.'s PlayStation has canceled previously unannounced games at two of its top subsidiaries, the company said Thursday. The games, at Oregon-based Bend Studio and Texas-based Bluepoint Games, were both "live service" projects designed to have recurring revenue from players.

Jan 17, 2025 · Sony announced just a few months ago that the PS5 is already their most successful and most profitable console to date - beating PS2 and PS4 by billions in profit. And that succes is only going to grow the next 3-4 years. PS5 is Sony's most profitable console gen ever after just 3 years, beating PS4 by over $36 billion in sales

Nov 12, 2020 · From Sony's angle: Very impressed with the work-ethic from Bluepoint. Creates groundbreaking remakes, at a good pace. They have a good relationship with other SIE studios, particularly Sony Japan Studios that they worked together with during both Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls.

Jan 16, 2025 · The cancellation signals to me that Sony is going to stick with the guaranteed success of a Bloodborne Remake than to let them branch out. Remakes, ports and remasters is Bluepoint's bread and butter after all.

Jan 17, 2025 · WOW. I was convinced Bluepoint was on a Bloodborne remake because there is no way Sony hasn't heard people clamoring for it for like a decade now. (At least fund a 60fps patch goddamn) Out of all the live service games that could have worked, TLOU Factions and the cancelled Spider-Verse one would have been hits, at least to start with.

Jan 16, 2025 · Sony sucks so fucking much this generation that my head is spinning. Jason mentioning management is the main reason this industry is in such a shit state and news like this comes out. A prominent studio, known for great remaster work over the years, releases Demons' Souls at launch and then you throw them on a fucking GoW GaaS game, when you ...

Nov 12, 2024 · Zero interest in Bluepoint making sequels to any IP they didn't create themselves, so cool. I wish them luck. People really need to stop reading so deeply into slides from powerpoint presentations from 3 years ago.

Jan 17, 2025 · If this was the only thing Bluepoint has been working on then very little original output has been going on with most Sony Studios. Really aggrevating that some people are under the impression that getting one in a thousand Gaas games to succeed is worth years of wasting it on a dozen of them to flush down the unsuccesful ones down the toilet.
