They made 5

>Have a new office
>Bayonetta 3 and Babylon's Fall in the works
>Project G.G. will be their first ever self published title, likely to use their new engine being developed
>Thanks to chink money now have much more creative freedom than had they been with a publisher

???
I'm curious to see how they will actually handle Project G.G., as I think they don't really understand just how important marketing is to selling games

>Posts one of their most kino games ever made

Babylon's Fall looks incredibly generic. As if it's what you'd imagine if someone said "What do all Platinum titles look like"

This is really Platinum's issue. Kamiya really seems to be the only one who will do something different, most other Platinum titles are incredibly similar to the point of exhaustion. I'm hoping with the new Tencent money they can start making shit they want, things new and out there without.

They sold out.

Kamiya doesn't make games

Project G.G. is his next game

Kamiya is a hack. Even Microsoft when starved for Xbone games turned his shit away.

Playing through this right now and holy shit is it amazing. I actually had the game for a few months now but the weird controls were off putting at first so I kept postponing it. I finally got to properly play it. Man what a ride. Can't put the controller down.

>their last two games are the biggest successes they've had in years
>ummm what wetn rong tho???
why is this board so retarded

That is an extremely cute butt

You might be an idiot this is not Persona

Still no Geah game

They're cursed with the worst fanbase a developer can have: one that is very loud and very vocal about how good the games are but never buys them.

nothing

Why are they so bad on twitter? Oof.

Holy shit user, are you me?

you know what youre doing

Superbunnyhop is the biggest fucking hypocritical faggot on earth.

Another game where getting hit doesn't count against your score because they throw everything on the screen at you

One-trick ponies. Still one of the most based developers though.

how do you not see that its a joke. Its april fools day

Tell that to bunnyhop

When Kamiya became a Chinese bootlicker.

Sold out to Nintendo. All their good games became Switch exclusive.

Frankly I have no idea what the fuck their problem is. From near their start all they did was release a couple of my all time favorites, then they started doing contact work to allegedly keep the lights on, but something broke after they did a few of those games. I can't put my finger on what it was but Bayo 2 onward it feels impossible for them to actually make any games anymore. I fucking hated Bayonetta 2 as a huge fan of 1, but I recognize it's a great game if you don't care or aren't intelligent enough to spot the differences. MGR was great, Wonderful 101 was astonishingly great, Vanquish and Bayo are both in my top 5, Bayo still being my all time favorite. Nier Automata goes in my top 10, but the soul of that game is Taro's doing, not Platinum's, however I would rather nobody else in the industry doing Taro's heavy lifting than Platinum.

Since Automata in 2017 they've made... approximately one game like they used to: Astral Chain. Transformers was a fun Bayo-lite, and my best friend is a huge TF fan that was telling me about all the little details that put so much soul in this game as a huge fan of gen 1 transformers. Anyway, after Nier Automata what have they actually released? They have fucking 4 or so games in the pipeline iirc. W101 ported to PC was fantastic, more people need to play that game and I'm glad it's on my preferred platform now.

They teased Bayonetta 3 two and a half full years ago in December 2017. I was at work when I saw the news and I was fucking ecstatic. I still hated Bayonetta 2 at the time but I was still preordering multiple copies of the upcoming Switch port and buying some for my friends. Since that day in December (couple days near Cereza's birthday actually) they've shown approximately nothing about the game. They've said nothing about the game. Kamiya is acting completely degenerately and is doing nothing for PR. (cont)

Taura makes stuff that differs from Kamiya and stuff templated from Kamiya's work, but Automata & Astral Chain have some of the weakest combat the studio has put out. Transformers Devastation is templated from Bayonetta pretty hard with different systems pulled out and slapped on but it's their most fun game.

I hope Babylon is Saito instead of a Literal Who director, I think Saito was onto something with the ARPG aspects of Devastation and I think a game with a budget that leaned into it could be very good. Like that Godfall game on PS5 but with more to it, even if the core combat is very "Platinum".

Enough of this meme. Astral Chain is a 7/10 and they ported their best game off of the WiiU, with the Switch port being the worst of the bunch. Their best game that is still Nintendo-exclusive is Madworld.

>Kamiya is acting completely degenerately and is doing nothing for PR
Him being a smacktalking retard on twitter has been his shtick for a long ass time. Twitter is to him what Zig Forums is to a manchild

Cont. The only information we've actually had about Bayonetta 3 is that "it's still happening" and "development is going well".

If development is going well then why aren't you frustrating idiots fucking showing me ANYTHING about your game? I want gameplay details, I want some type of information about the premise of the story, I want a trailer, I want literally anything other than having to wait in silence for a duration longer than platinum's typical development time for full other games.

Even more infuriating is that since that game's announcement they've already revealed 2 or 3 more games they're making (while showing nothing about one [Babylon's Fall] for over a year before releasing a trailer and nothing else). One game announced is even being directed by Kamiya.

The fucking faggot director of Bayonetta 2 (who does amazing artwork for the series, by the way, he provided all the angel designs minus one or two), left. Out of nowhere. He and Kamiya were constantly fighting with Kamiya having to stop him from making bad decisions about the game and gameplay by asserting directorial authority over him, the same mistakes that Bayonetta 2 ends up releasing and being designed around now that Kamiya couldn't tell him what to do. I can't think of a worse person to intentionally hand your baby over to than that idiot given the precedent he created during 1's development. 2 didn't even have the myserious "don-san" as Kamiya calls him, this individual in my eyes who is legendary because he was the primary mind behind 1's AI, which was horrible in Bayo 2. Given that neither of these people are going to be present for 3, and that I highly doubt that Kamiya is directing/did direct it, I expect it to be a stinker.

Who even knows what the fuck they're doing at their studio, but the lack of communication is highly frustrating one of their biggest fans.
