He’s probably been frustrated with the company since Scalebound, this was only a matter of time. Everyone knows Kamiya isn’t exactly shy about sharing his opinions so I bet he’s been butting heads with people nonstop. Hope he pulls a Kojima and gets some funding to do his own thing.
Oh wow Scalebound, I was so excited for that game. Wish he was able to finish that as he seemed to be very passionate towards it. I heard MS was extremely pissed with the development process as well.
I feel like the key word here is resignation. Platinum has changed from its early days and so has the quality of its output (Babylon’s Fall; Astral Chain, which I loved everything about but the gameplay). It is possible that because of the capital injection/investment by Tencent, Kamiya doesn’t have the same creative freedom/pull to make the games he wants anymore.
Unless he speaks up we will never know, and I doubt he will. Can’t wait to see what’s next for him tho.
Where did he go?
Blocked
I get the feeling that whatever he’s been working on since the last thing that got canceled, got canceled.
That or tenacent offered him a dump truck of money to do something, that’s not unheard of
Man’s probably been on a downward spiral ever since he lost the ability to block people on Twitter.
Loved his games in the past, but I don’t think he’s made anything good in a while, and I’m curious to know if there’s any other studio willing to take in such a diva of a game developer. Wish him the best of luck.
