True that. Sounds more like a 2022 thing, if it’s ever to come to Xbox. Meh.

Octopath came to Stadia before Xbox as well lol. I figure these devs are taking an insane amount of money to put it on stadia, cuz unlike MS, Stadia is a lot more desperate for games. I wouldn’t be surprised if Google also approached Atlus about Persona and make a deal there as well.
Curious to know… and maybe an Aussie can help me out here…
@Shpeshal_Nick These rumored six SE titles, do they INCLUDE the missing yet already announced Final Fantasy games, X/X-2, XII Trilogy?
Hate to bring this up again cuz it’s none of our business, but this makes a lot of sense. Good for him. Will be interesting to see what he’ll be involved in at Insomniac. Maybe Sunset Overdrive 2 can be a possibility now?

Damn, hope Xbox can do something here. Sad to see so many legends on the brink on wanting to quit the industry. They got Brian back, hopefully same with Mikami and now maybe try the same with one of the most important figures in the JRPG space.

Not that it was any of our business, but it was very obvious the move was for his mental health.
I don’t know why OTHERS tried to paint it as such.
Good to see him well and more open about his struggles with mental health and shines a light about why he really left TI (It was mental health)

Because there is always chaos at xbox studios!!!
Old era is bound to leave eventually. I do wonder who are the representatives of the modern era though?

Not surprised Back 4 Blood was delayed. Wouldn’t be surprised to see it get delayed to 2022.
Still expecting Crimson Desert, Dying Light 2, Far Cry 6, Horizon II: Forbidden West and Stalker 2 to get delayed to 2022. Also expecting a short delay for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.

They’ll need substantial presence in Japan besides Tango to create/give a home for Sakaguchi.
The man should retire if he wants. Bring on much of his team and build a studio from it. He must have protégés worthy of a leadership role.
Look, while they’re games are great, Sony (and Playstation) turning all of their games into movies and TV shows will never not be funny to me, considering the famed “TV, TV, TV” meme circa 2013.
I mean, look at Halo, that has been in development hell for at least an entire console generation (started as a Peter Jackson production) so I would give that one less guff, but TLOU, to Uncharted to GoT all being turned into movies and tv shows by “Playstation Productions” is hysterical to me in a historical context.

His first tweet was very clear that he had taken up a lower position at Insomniac, and it was almost common knowledge that he had suffered a family tragedy.
Must have definitely affected his work and his health.
The Sony camp (not fanbois, but rabble rousers like David Jaffe etc.) went completely overboard with this.

Yeah - the question is what is the destination for his proteges? Besides Tango there is no presence in Japan.
