Looks like Gris is coming to PS4 soon if anyone cares...
He's the interactive story producer for a VR experience called Chained.
We cant really tell if one negates the other though. For a while Allgeier was Insomniac's overall Design Director on both Resistance and R&C, but still he managed to be the creative director on the Ratchet games. This role of Director of Experience seems to be similar to his Design Director position, where he oversaw some aspects of all projects in the studio, even if he was leading his own.
I also recently noticed that Brian Horton (Rise of the Tomb Raider Game Director) who joined Insomniac as their new Design Director in January 2018, has changed his role to Creative Director since May 2018. So maybe he could be at the helm as well
I parsed rapidly to avoid possible spoilers.
Just 2 VR modes, one mini adventure "Splotch and the Spider" (about 45minutes long) and a Free Draw mode, which uses specific locations to paint in VR.
He advised to play at least the beginning of the game before getting into the VR modes, if only to recognize the characters.
The VR paint mode uses fixed 3D scenes where you can look around but not move. He says they are beautiful, but he laments that of the dozen or so locations only 1 allows to paint the scenery in 3D, the rest is 2D painting.
The VR is a neat addition to the actual game, but not worth the price just by itself.
As per the main game, he is only at the beginning but says it is gorgeous and really well done, and well worth the $29.99 price.
Can't read Mexican though, so I've no idea whether it's positive or negative.
Possibly, this site had the review up but removed it.
Also found these:
8.5
+
Good visuals
Engaging plot
Easy gameplay (not sure if he means difficulty wise or if the controls are easy to use, probably the latter)
-
Short
Few combats
7.2
+
Can be pretty even with graphical limitations
Freedom to paint the city as you like
Customizing Genies is fun
Easy to play for everyone

Movimentação bem travada (have no idea what travada means here, must be a brazilian term) FelipeMGM help lol / edit: it means janky/stiff movement
Stealth is weak and doesn't present a challenge
they could've added more painting mechanics

Thank you, glad he is still in the game.
A part of me is still sad he left Naughty Dog, but for him it was the best move.
Seeing Margenau and Newman co directing excits me, want to see and play what the whole team is cooking, but hope Naughty Dog got better avoiding crunch.
Nahh. will go with something generic for now and update the thread when something good comes along.
I like it.
There goes that "I" word. 🙄
And yet, the last sentence of the review is:
"This game might not figure among PS4's best, but it's certainly among 2019's most original ones."
Talk about a confused review.
It seems that Sony Brazil said the embargo was going to end at 1 pm today, that's why only Brazilian websites are publishing their reviews. Probably an error because many of them are removing it.
I'm playing Control right now and I'm loving it but I feel like it could be so much more and I feel like a lot of these issues are probably due to the budget.
I really hope Remedy is working with Sony on a next gen title that expands on the things Control is doing in a big way.

I had free time yesterday and with a giant backlog waiting for me, I chose to play The Order 1886 for the first time, as it was a short game that I could finish in one sitting, and I did it.
Graphically the game is unbelievable, the environment, the atmosphere is amazing, but what a huge waste of potential, gameplay is terrible, you are basically walking literally through halls as slow as Arthur at RDR2 camp for almost the entire game, with a QTE here and there, some gun combat sections of 2 or 3 NPCs all the same, gunplay feeling was good, but the cover system is one of the worst I've ever played in my life,boring cutscenes that never ended, confusing, predictable and uninteresting story that when it was getting interesting the game just ended.
The game was clearly made with sequels in mind, but what were they thinking? With such a bad game it is difficult to get a sequel,good premise but terrible execution, a studio with experience in narrative-driven games and a good director can save this IP, with a totally different sequel, but keeping these characters and the world, I really liked Galahad, but if it's to have a sequel done the same way or made by Ready at Dawn, better be dead anyway.
For sure the worst Sony exclusive PS I've ever played in this generation.

I was quite skeptical about Concrete Genie thinking that you wouldn't have freedom to paint and it'd be a couple of set pictures that you had to figure it out but you actually can create anything you want (with the gallery they provide, of course).
Awesome, I remember that game looked beautiful.
Can't wait!

I wonder if there's people that just assume COD is first partyDamn, that's a good bundle.
Just ripped through what I believe is my 5th TLOU playthough. My last one was in 2016. Did this one on normal going for all collectibles. Sadly my conversation trophy glitched which robbed my platinum.
My last two runs were grounded and grounded + so I appreciated the change of pace. I loved absorbing everything I possibly could this run. I can safely say that it is still the GOAT. It's just such a finely crafted experience with a couple blemishes here and there.

You would be surprised. I remember kids in school telling me back in the 360 days that COD was only on Xbox. Exclusive marketing can do wonders.
PopoloCrois Creator teases possible a new game in 2020? i can't guess its for PS4, or probably PS5? Switch also possible. (the original developer also recruiting a new staff for launching new Project).
If you mean first party and assuming GoT is cross-gen, then TLoU is probably the last big AAA game from Sony to the PS4.
But there is still FF7R, Nioh 2 and Granblue Fantasy Versus
Yep, I meant 1st party games. Welp, will sell my Pro after TLoU and play GoT on the PS5, if it will offer a substantial performance/graphical boost when jumping next-gen.
