Should’ve given Gravity Rush Remastered out to drum up hype – any hype, any hype at all – for GR2 :/
Sony’s handling of GR2 has been disastrous. They didn’t promote it at E3, instead shoving Days Gone into the presser twice (who knows when that boring game’s even coming). They fail to show it in all sizzle reels/ads, opting to show, like, Spider-Man (again, a long way off) and Infinite Warfare instead. They failed to make the recent demo or anime any kind of event; didn’t learn jack from Ni-Oh’s demo release. And that anime quietly releasing on Youtube? Why not, like, have Toonami air it as a special?
Do SOMETHING to promote GR2 ffs, Sony. Care about games that aren’t grungy, realistic, “narrative-focused” (gameplay-hating) bore-fests. Why even publish it? Give it to XSeed or Atlus – someone who’d care about it? Sony used to do that; they let Atlus publish SkyGunner on the PS2 for instance. Its pathetic watching a company who harbors so much disdain for colorful, fun, “4 quadrant” titles (to borrow the movie term) have to quietly publish them. Who’s making these decisions at SCEA, and why do they hate good games but love grimy zombie shooters so much? Stop acting like Xbox. >:(
