He has an open check to do whatever he wants and leave his legacy. Dont think silent hills will be here lol.
Supermassive did that with their Dark Pictures series or whatever right? Has anybody tried those? I like Until Dawn.
He wants to make Silent Hills.
Yeah. I quite liked the first one. Need to play the 2n done still. They are real solid for games with low intensity gameplay.
What could be cloudish about a game?
-
Like flight simā¦ unlimited assest data can be used for a game. Storage is not a limitation any more.
-
Expandable memory ā¦ No limitations on in game memory budget
-
Scalable CPUs and GPUs ā¦ more horse power just in the other server rack
-
Biggest could be rapid game development time. With no particular hardware limitations like in consoleā¦ no optimisation time required and game can look as good as the first thought of the designer
My money is on it getting announce at The Game Awards.
That and Compulsionās game. Microsoft seems to show their more āartisticā games there. Also, nice profile picture.
Seeing lots of āconcernā over this being an āXcloud exclusiveā that canāt be played on the consoleā¦ which is not a real thing that exists, so.
Since this leaked, the propaganda machine has been at full capacity:
1 - Itāll be a small episodic game (why tho?)
2 - Itāll only be played via streaming (why tho?)
3 - Itās a side project for Kojima Productions, most of the studio is working on the Directorās Cut of Death Stranding (why tho?)
Nah, Iām sure itāll probably be a romantic comedy instead.
Edit: also, while Iām completely kidding here, I actually would be super curious how someone who normally does horror stuff would apply their ability in making something like a romantic comedy. Could end up being quite interesting And Iām probably the only one here who would be interested in that!
This is seems to be far out haha
Not sure a cloud based game means exactly this. Itās possible to use Azure as a server for a world shared between players.
I think SheepDip is implying that those concerns are made in bad faith (and theyāre probably right!)
Heās gonna use the cloud to make an open world game with the entire globe as a map. Like Flight Simulator but at a ground level. Well, not the entire planet, but maybe the US or something.
Liked for both the general statement and the usage of my man Moss
I may not be a huge fan of everything that he does, but giving a wild creator the keys to Xbox funding and tech is pretty exciting to the possibilities for a cool potential game. And a deal with him would also help to gain traction with some Asian developers and even gamers possibly too as a side benefit for the Xbox platform.
How is that different than any other game that exists now though? Like an MMO.
So like sea of thieves ā¦ or eso ā¦ or fallout 76 ā¦
Iām not game dev, so Iām just guessing here. A game like Sea of Thieves renders assets in the consoles and uses the server as a mediator. Using the cloud is more like the world being stateful 24/7 into the cloud servers and rendering via packages into the console when itās needed, something like games used to do when loading stuff from CDs to memory in a PS1, for example.
Curious to how Grubb knows everything. Iām thinking the chain of communication is
Kojima > Keighly > Grubb
