looking forward to it
I’m very looking forward to reveals of new indie games. These are the people who do passion projects, and who tell deeply personal stories; who believe in their singular ideas and creativity with so much power, they will them to life all by themselves.
I hope Yoshida-san’s influence can make Playstation the best place for indie devs to get all the assistance they need to make the best games they can, and for it to be the best place for them to make a business out of their passion.
It hasn’t.
And I am an absolute Shu fanboy, but if anything, we are getting less Indies. Publishers like Devolver are omitting PlayStation and releasing on Switch and Xbox instead. It’s unheard of really. Maybe has to do with Game Pass money, but it was always the other way around last generation.
Super giant games was loyal to PlayStation last generation when you look at Transistor and Pyre which was exclusive. Then they release Hades as a Switch timed exclusive.
I hate to say it but I think the Shu move was appeared emotion and I don’t understand why. As much as he throws out the odd Tweet, he’s not bringing home the bacon. He isn’t strengthening relationships with Indie publishers or finding the new That Game Company straight out of school.
I love me some Shu, he’s an absolute icon and a gorgeous man, but I want results. I really thought this was the perfect move for him and Sony in general, but it’s not working out that way. In truth, the loss of Adam Boyes absolutely killed Sony’s publisher relations and their Indie relationships.
Sony used to Be The cutting Edge place on console for indie games and now we’re just lucky if we get them. Chicory was nice and Salt & Sacrifice is PC/PS4 only, but they are far and few compared to last generation.
By the way, I love Sony and I love Shu. I’m extraordinarily happy with PlayStation and PlayStation 5 in general. But I’m honest and this is one criticism I do have.
