[@PaszerDye]

IIRC Upper Echelon made a video on that months ago about some study from the mid-2010s; it had results that show companies with diverse staff gained about 15% increase in profit. But instead of looking at it case by case & the natural hiring of those diverse staff, companies used it as a crowbar to force growth. So TBF Sony think a Bloodborne port would only get them $50m, while they though $400m would land them around the ballpark of $1b or so... which is dumb.

[@specialnewb9821]

​@PaszerDye generally at least in my experience with smaller tech companies they hire people they know and get along with. Since it's natural to make more friends with people who are in similar situations, what you get are a lot of similar people (for the record this was in a city of around a million people). So people who look different or grew up in a different situation have less opportunity not due to malice but due to human familiarity bias. DEI was supposed be an effort to push beyond that because by limiting hiring you were potentially leaving interesting ideas and fresh perspectives on the table without even looking at them and that meant a potential loss of money. That doesnt lend itself well to metrics and corporations basically made it a shallow initiative with numbers so it didn't work as a specific program.

[@Skobeloff...]

The changing of some voice lines that take away context or adding dialogue that took away the mystery. Changing music and specific sounds that made you get goosebumps in the og. It's the same with Dark Souls 2, he allowed someone else to direct one of the games and they had no idea what it took to make an authentic Souls game. This is another reason I love Miyazaki, he doesn't care about making more money, he cares about creating legendary forms of art. I feel like he saw what happened with Dark Souls 2's story, gameplay, and atmosphere, and so he attempted to give the Demon's Souls remake to a 3rd party. So after seeing them not understanding his vision either and taking artistic liberties to add their own flare and took out important things that make the games the legends they are, now he doesn't trust anyone with his visions and I for one, don't blame him and hope if they ever remake Bloodborne or make a sequel, it's directed by him and ONLY him!

I think part of the reason why Miyazaki has been hesitant on re-opening the gates of Yharnam has to do with how rough the development of BB was in the first place. It’s hard to go back to once you consider the “True” Ending and even harder when you consider trying to do a “Prequel”. From all the digging that Lance McDonald and TSJ has done into the files while compiling notes on the lore from previous versions of the game: - BB was ORIGINALLY Demon’s Souls 2 w/ much more of an emphasis on Yharnam being a “future” version of Boletaria - the “Project Beast” version of BB was the last time they stuck to this before completely abandoning it in favor of a new IP - the Bram Stoker’s Dracula influence was way more pronounced, with the Cainhurst Castle level being more prominent in the storyline + the Old Blood being that much more important of a plot line - the end result is a wild reshuffling of the game’s bosses & plotline that took some masterful worldbuilding to make sense of again It’s also why Miyazaki wanted to leave DS off on 3…seeing as he most likely didn’t want the series’s lore to become far more incoherent and obligatory to make sense of a future game. I just don’t understand why he doesn’t return to the DeS well and give us MORE of Boletaria + The Old One if he isn’t trying to make a BB2/BB Zero

[@geladaas9879]

All the remasters so far have sucked ass. If Miyazaki is not on top of something supervising directly the end result is trash every time.

[@bamban_garcia5562]

That goes out the window when such agreements are stated by phone or email between the head honchos if true are flown to oversee the project, also Japan has stricter rules against such things that whoever does it will most likely be jailed

[@JACKjcs]

Of course there are still obstacles and the biggest one is the current director of Sony America, that guy is useless, he is the main responsible for Concord and the disastrous projects that Sony is having lately, he is totally blocking projects like Bloodborne in order to fulfill his preferences, the guy is behind Horizon Zero Dawn and its sequel, that is why Sony has been forcibly putting those games everywhere. What we have to keep an eye on is the rumor that has been going around regarding Sony Japan wanting to change the direction of Sony America to orientalize Playstation again because the console has a totally disastrous catalog. That would be the best thing that would happen to the console in years, it would be a return to its origins and now with Nintendo having so much success they need this type of change more than ever.

[@jase276]

I wholeheartedly agree but the irony is that Nintendo's success is the whole reason this even happened. The Switch was *dominating* the PS4 in Japan and mobile gaming, in general, even more so. So, Sony bet everything on marketing to the Western demographic after successes like Horizon, GOW, and TLOU. Now they have to eat crow because they've lost their diehard, loyal fans in Japan and they've lost their own identity. Again, ironic that they left Japan because of Nintendo but now must return because Nintendo has kept proving that staying true to Japanese game design is what sells while keeping costs low.

[@JACKjcs]

@@jase276 Luckily, they've already demoted Hermen Hulst to a lower position (although I think they should have fired him) and put a Japanese guy (Hideaki Nishino) as director, in the end the rumor that Japan was upset with the current state of Playstation turned out to be true, all that's missing is that the other part of the rumor about them wanting to go back to their origins is also true. And regarding Nintendo, I 100% support that the Switch (I hope the 2 too) is so successful and is a threat to Sony and Xbox, even though many disagree, competition is what keeps these companies afloat, without that they stagnate and don't make decisions like Sony's radical decision to change its CEO, they know they needed it.

When Shuhei Yoshida says they won't remake it or make a sequel because of Miyazaki, maybe he means they don't want to make a sequel without him. Like they're too scared to do it without him, or are holding out hopeful that maybe one day he would agree to make a sequel produced by Sony. If they are hopeful that maybe one day he would agree to make a sequel, it could also explain why they haven't bothered making a remake/remaster of the original yet, because it might be something they would want to do closer to the release of a sequel, so it could come out like 6 months to a year before it. Total speculation just something I thought of, and it would make sense with what both Yohshida and Miyazaki have said.

[@rellixx6916]

they're saving bloodborne for a remake for the ps6

[@callmeviper7723]

Nah

[@15_Cows]

There are several reasons why I think Bloodborne won't get a remaster. Starting with the game has already been released on PS5. The game was successful back in 2015, and if it didn't hit metrics when put on the PS5, Sony might be even more hesitant to put effort into a full remaster. It being 10 years old in March would be a good time for an anniversary remaster, but that's not happening. Another aspect is that Japan Studio, co-developer of Bloodborne, has also been shut down. FromSoft was the main developer, but this studio did significant help with the backend stuff. FromSoft is also pushing forward on new titles, so to expect them to halt that is wishful thinking. Would like the game in 60 fps though that'd be fire

@@johnnyboy3849 I agree. However, I would say that I think if Yharnam was made like a semi-open world area - it could work. The game would still have a linear progression, but the city districts themselves would be larger with more encounters and other methods of progressing into new districts. Also would fit in with the lore as the hunter is essentially newly arrived in the city and would get lost/be confused as to which way they should be heading.

[@livingfailure3071]

Actually, from reports within Sony; the Primary issue is Sony US is the leading front of Sony currently. Sony JP has been trying to break off Sony US and go back to just making good games. From Insider reports Sony US is the main push against Bloodborne 2 while Sony JP has expressed that they would be completely open to it.

[@piniensieb7215]

Source?

[@jase276]

Yeah, that's a complete load of bs. For starters, Sony Us only controls the Playstation/Entertainment branch which is located in California. Sony Japan still controls the electronic/hardware branch in Japan. And Sony Japan was the one that agreed and went ahead with Sony US alienating the Japanese demographic in favor for Western slop back in the PS4 era. So, no, Sony japan doesn't get to say that they want to "run it back". They literally greenlit this. This entire thing started because the Nintendo Switch and mobile gaming was beating Playstation out in Japan.

[@InMaTeofDeath]

I'm all for anything Bloodborne but I just can't overstate enough how shocked/impressed I am with my fellow fans that he's still bringing up freaking Legend of Dragoon unprompted. I don't believe we'd ever get an FF7 style remake for that though. Tbh I wouldn't want it to be as big as they're making FF7 but it's one of those things that I don't think I'll ever see.

[@TJuice1986]

Let me ask this, how many copies has Bloodborne sold?

[@ahira-q8h]

I think if you carefully analyze Miyazaki's statement, "not being opposed to do it" isn't the same as "I want and have the time to do it". Even if he isn't opposed to doing it, he is probably an incredibly busy guy with ER and at the time of the interview with the DLC, and whatever he is currently cooking. So I think I believe what the Sony exec said, maybe they are really just waiting for Miyazaki to be able to do it.

[@carnageodyssey]

I truly wish. But Miyazaki said it clearly- it’s out his control. He wouldn’t be opposed to doing it if FromSoft had full liberty of Bloodborne. Fans have asked so much over these years I’m sure they would’ve made it happen if they control. But Sony owns the IP, and they could let it sit & fester for years on end if they so choose. Also the fact JapanStudio (one of the companies involved with the conception of bloodborne) being disbanded doesn’t help our case either. But goddamn, would it be nice.

[@jase276]

During this period, Sony did *not* care about Japanese IPs. That's the whole reason why Japan Studios was closed. Sony took a very anti-Japan stance mid PS4 era when Jim Ryan took over as CEO in favor for Western single player walking si- I mean narrative driven games. It's not that Sony was waiting for Miyazaki, they literally just did not care about Bloodborne and probably still don't. Especially after the terrible Demon's Souls Remake flopped.

[@dylanw5166]

In my opinion they know this series has crazy potential. Miyazaki is going to unload something crazy on us

All I wanted was a patch for 60fps and better resolution. Now it's been so damn long I want a proper remake with cut content added, a jump button, greatly expanded areas (no new ones) and a complete overhaul of the Chalice Dungeons. New weapons would be ok as well but those other things are far more important to me. I don't want added lore or new bosses necessarily. Just take that Resident Evil 1 Remake mindset of let's take what's there and expand it.

[@HaohmaruHL]

After how Blue Point shot their Muricinizing Beam at Demon's Souls and what it got turned into I also don't want anyone but Miyazaki touch Bloodborne. I want the remake/remaster just like the next guy, but I don't want a defiled remake like the American Demons Souls one. If it means we're stuck with no official Bloodborne remake, so be it. Better safe than sorry. Sony has disbanded the Japan Studio (people developed Bloodborne, along with other titles) long ago and they now probably regretting it a lot. So Bloodborne was swept under the rug as one of the evidence of the mistake they made by disbanding the devs behind the game. Now nobody either wants to take the responsibility or have enough compitence for the remake or at least remaster to happen. Emulators or anything related to copyright is strictly illegal and is zero tolerance in Japan so even if that ps4 emulator ends up running Bloodborne perfectly it's just a matter of time before all that is legally shut down for good. We as fans want the game so much but as we continue whining about how much we want it every year it creates a snowball effect of unrealistic expectations and pressure put on any devs who would dare touch it. So it may be shelved forever just out of fear of bad reception of the remake that wasn't as perfect as everyone expected.

[@sataniccereal]

I heard this from somewhere but: Japan Studio and Sony technically "own" the IP of bloodborne, but since Japan Studio was split, there's not a dev team (besides fromsoft, which don't own the IP) to actually port it. I might be wrong tho

It isn't Miyazaki just purposefully holding the game up, it's just that it's likely he (and even more so Sony) want him to dedicate his time 100% to a new Bloodborne project, and they want him to direct the game personally. However, he's probably committed to projects already. Who knows, he could already be in talks to make something. It could even be Bloodborne related. Sony is saving the next Bloodborne project for PS6 probably, which is really disappointing. They'll probably release a remaster, PC port or 60fps update around the same time they announce a Bloodborne sequel, prequel etc. There is no way Sony doesn't know how valuable the IP is, and with them now owning the majority share of FromSoft it's very likely something will happen. It's just probably going to be years from now unfortunately.

The only way Sony re-releases Bloodborne is as a free to play MMO that they can monotize with bundles, skins and of course a seasonal battlepass .

[@dutchielander2478]

I feel that in order to get a remake or remaster of this game, we need to either sacrifice Miyazaki to the old ones OR extract the old one from Miyazaki. Both will be detrimental for fromsoft games in the future and we dont want to lose what we have now. I also kinda feel that, once we DO get anything Bloodborne, we are gonna get flooded and eventualy saturated with all kinds of Bloodborne stuff...even the stuff we dont want. Since it probably looks like a giant dollar sign to Sony they can cash in the moment they need some extra money. (also since they dont have that FF7 thing to fall back on with remakes being out, something people also wanted for years and years).
