Tom Philips from Eurogamer : "Sony has 1st and 3rd party stuff still to announce, feels like it has quite smartly held some stuff back"
- Thread starter Dust
- Start date
I'm still not getting my hopes up for any RPGs. I've been burned too damn many times at this point.
Was it smart to hold it back? Didn't feel like the initial unveil set the world on fire. We'll see if/how it all comes out I guess
Was a response to this:
Which Jeff Grubb reported on months ago.

We talking action RPGs, FFXVI, or bonafide old-school JRPGs?
You'll get RPG-lite mechanics in every game and you'll like it.
yup, don't expect any RPG/JRPGs from Sony First Party
most likely Silent Hill and third party I guess the new FF
I cannot wait to look back at this State of Play in 5 years time when Final Fantasy XVI is still not out and reminisce about the reveal.
It would be nice to get release windows at least. If something like Silent Hill isn't expected in 2021 be up front about it.
Still, if all the games Sony showed at the reveal event are available within the first calendar year of the PS5, that's the best start a Sony console has had since the PS2.

I would like actual exclusive RPGs on PS5, with party mechanics and diverse casts of playable characters. I don't care where they're made.
I'm so tired of generic open world action games with some light "RPG mechanics" stapled onto them.
I would say the number of views(highest watched gaming event ) with the 98% like ratio says otherwise. Any company would be happy with those type of results imo.
OT: Great. More games is always good
I imagine they've definitely got stuff in the pipeline that they can safely announce for 2021 and beyond, but if they actually held back on a major title that is ready for launch - that does not seem like a smart move.
To be fair in the last gen transition, RPGs, even more JRPGs, were one of the last genres to be announced for PS4.
And a RPG from Sony seems more unlikely as the years passes.
It was pretty well received among people who actually like video games.
By this logic, since MS already had game reveals, Sony still has a chance to make a first impression, lol.
How do you figure? They announced a bunch of stuff their hardcore fans are into. They saved some games for after Microsoft's event. Would you prefer they showed everything in June and then let Microsoft just own the entire rest of the summer?
I'm well aware. But I don't buy consoles for multiplatform games so Sony really needs to cover my genre if they want me to get invested. I'm not spending $500+ on a console just to play some games I could get anywhere.
Nah. Game wise it was on par with the inside xbox showing. The quality of the show was really well done though.
They did make a big first impression though, maybe not with you personally but social media was pretty abuzz about their show.
Sony literally debuted with GT7, Horizon 2, Spider-Man, Demons Souls, Ratchet e Clank just for their first party studios. In total 9 exclusives.
If you think Xbox is gonna match this hype just with Fable, Perfect Dark and Halo... idk. Reception for the Ps5 event was absurd.
