Let's act like hi-fi rush didn't release on PS5 and sell copper status.
But now it's the one of the greatest games
Its not my problem that the game didn’t sell
Krafton is reviving Tango Gameworks and plans to expand the Hi-Fi Rush

Some of y'all bipolar yo. Lol
Honestly, do non-soul Japanese action games move that many units? Even stuff from Platinum that are on the switch didn't move that many units. I know it's Korean but you might have the odd game like Stellar Blade moving a lot of units, but I think Hifi rush was not going to do that well commercially. Maybe if they got a push from Sony it would help, but that didn't even help something like Ghostwire.
I think HFR2 might want to remove the music timing thing if they want more appeal because that takes away a lot of potential consumers

Not really, devil may cry and Nier are like the top of their genre, then you have god of war on the western side
I think they could do well to build some more accessbility around it and just add maybe some more popular music. I don’t think there’s much more to the game without the music/rythm aspect

Naw, watching xbox fans shyt on the sales of the game and its potential to sell a sequel has been enjoyable lol
I feel Nier is the exception because only DMC franchise make major units. I think western action games are different in that regard. I feel ones that are made by Asian developers don't move that many units except for the ones that we've listed. I loved the game and hope I am wrong, but it feels like the game wouldn't move that many sales. However, it's on the publisher to go out and actually market the game to sell people on it. I think tthe studio resurrecting will put more eyes on it like I remember it got player spike after it was announced they were close.
UNATTACHED
I feel good GTFO my face
I liked the Evil Within 1&2 and HFR. I put Tango in the same box as Platinum Games. Both make popular cult games that don’t sell. Platinum been more successful tho.
The subnautica shyt is a whole ass mess. No matter how you slice it.. 2026 for early access is abysmal. The game should've been well into EA by that time. However, the game has had playtests and we know there's very little content in the game currently. It really just seems like no one was really responsible for pushing the game along as a finished product... just a bunch of milestones and smaller content like items and customization.
I hate to say it but Krafton is the main one here that would really care if the game gets finished or not. The devs are going to get paid regardless. Leadership was getting acquisition bonuses based on the state of the game but not necessarily for it getting finished. Doesn't seem like there was any incentive to actually finish the game.
