He seriously puts Hideki Kamiya to shame
He seriously puts Hideki Kamiya to shame
Lucas Cook
John Baker
No need to compare the two. They're both great along with Itsuno from Capcom
Anthony Hall
>Needs to bring in Hideki Kamiya to have half passable gameplay
>Puts him to shame
Jason Flores
At least people know now where the brains of the company lie.
Eli Williams
Both are overrated hacks. Taro has yet to make a good game.
Carter Richardson
They're different people with different goals.
Caleb Flores
They're not really comparable.
Taro's a writer and director, he strikes me as not really caring about gameplay, where Kamiya is the exact opposite, caring pretty much only about gameplay with story being a distant second.
Kojima is the better comparison.
Asher White
Unlike Kamiya he's actually nice to people. So nice Kamiya has declared Automata the saviour of Platinum.
Julian Young
what's a hideki kamiya?
Owen Ward
>Kamiya
>overrated
He brought us more quality games than virtually anybody else if we discount the lazy ones that only know how to rehash (Nintendo, Naughty Dog, etc).
Juan Diaz
What if they teamed up and directed a game together, what would that look like?
Isaiah Ross
Nier is about to have its third installment announced, meanwhile Bayonetta will cancelled at 3.
Nathaniel Phillips
>shitty hack and slash games
>good

Kamiya doesnn't team up fag. He's either the director or not
Adam Carter
lol
Good luck selling any of Taro's tripe then. That's all his games are. At least Kamiya's have depth.
Levi Hall
They're both shit, faggot. A plague upon gaming, just as much as cinematic shit.
Christian Wright
nier man looks like a such a bro
too few people like him still making games because they love games
Anthony Morris
At least Taro's games sell.

>"Normally, I can't help but do everything by myself... it's a pitiful story, but to say that Yoko-san saved Platinum would not be an exaggeration. I cannot thank him enough."
Jayden Brooks
lol nice opinion secondary
Cooper Evans
>At least Taro's games sell.
Resident Evil 2 outsells the entire nier/drakengard franchise
Brayden Moore
They seriously need to team up.
Jaxson Reed
>one game is popular because ass fags shill it incessantly
>"All of his games sell well."
Nah.
Brayden Bell
RE2 outsold every Taro game combined
Caleb Thomas
Not at all. I love Taro but Automata is the first time he directed a game that was actually good as a video game, and that's mostly because of Platinum. Meanwhile Kamiya has a literally spotless record, every single game he's been involved with is great.
Kevin Stewart
At least post the image, faggotron.
Henry King
It was the perfect combo. A company that can't make a good story to save their ass but can do great gameplay and a guy who writes great stories but can't make an actual game to save his ass.
Hudson Parker
>current year
>being a meme idiot
Carter Anderson
Kamiya and Taro should make a shmup together.
Caleb Scott
>Taro
>great stories
This is what idiots who only consume games and anime actually believe.
Jaxon Gomez
Not really, Kamiya has produced far better games than Taro has. The best parts of Taro games don't even involved Taro or his team, it's done by other people within the company. No game Taro has made is as ground-breaking as Devil May Cry 1, a game that created its own genre of video games. The music in Kamiya's games is also very good consistently. Sure it's not NieR OST levels but they're all consistently well done.
Austin Martinez
would have the most insane final boss of all time
Carter Russell
Why bring down genius with simplicity?
Xavier Morris
>N:A saved Platinum Studios
>SE sees the value of Platinum Studios
>proceeds to buy them
And then they make them do a sequel to Einhander.
Hunter Sullivan
he should block himself
Robert Allen
>kamiya selling out to a big publisher after he moved to his own studio to get away from a different one
Evan Foster
and his studio nearly dying until a bigger studio came in to give him work and as he literally says 'saved' his company.
Cooper Parker
Nah Platinum highly values their independence, would never happen unless the current management dies/retires.
Connor Allen
What the fuck? If you're going to compare him to anyone, compare him to Kojima. They're basically the same. Kamiya is a stylish gameplay guy while Taro is all about the story.
Aaron Sanchez
Drakengard 3 but good.
Gabriel Wilson
his studio nearly died because they got fucked in the ass by microsoft over scalebound.
Austin Ross
People don't value quality. That's why Platinum isn't getting work. The lowest common denominators like yourselves value asses and fanservice, as evidenced in Automata's "success" and Bayonetta's sequels(the only sequels Platinum has ever produced).
Lincoln Morris
why'd microsoft back out anyway, game was semi hyped
Ryan Murphy
Kamiya would never let DoD3's final boss get past concept phase.
Sebastian Lee
Kojima is better than both of them. He does game play and story right. Truly the jack of all trades.

Parker Turner
>2b ass meme
it was never funny to begin with
Jace Carter
They wanted more control over it than Platinum
Christopher Anderson
Then why was it made?
Brandon Cook
My guess is there was a conflicting vision over the project, Microsoft wanted to prioritize visuals while Kamiya wanted to prioritize framerate, I'm sure he wasn't happy that the reveal footage was so poorly optimized.
Aiden Thomas
>People don't value quality. That's why Platinum isn't getting work
oh like this great list of games from the article in
>The Legend of Korra, Transformers: Devastation, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan, while assisting in the creation of Star Fox Zero.
Platinum quality all around. Maybe you should remember that Clover made the good games and Platinum is just the license shit show of this generation.
Ayden Wilson
This is true, but Kojima also has a budget the others don't. Also he likes making mostly western stuff.
Bentley Johnson
because Sup Forumsedditors thinks it's funny and they love to hear the same joke over and over again
>look mommy he said the 2b ass thing again!
>one more time! one more time! please mommy make him say it again
that kinda baby humour
Oliver Jenkins
Even Platinum's worst games are better than the average Taro game. Automata isn't even great if you consider it a "Platinum game", you have to view it through the Taro lense to really enjoy it.
Anthony Wilson
Platinum has never been fucking good, give me a goddamn break every single "Action" game by Platinum has been shallow as a puddle.
Asher Carter
>"at least Taro's games sell."
>in the same article it said that he sunk Cavia because Drakengard/Nier sells were subpar
Daniel Hughes
Kojima catches flak for being too obvious, but if he'd half the balls that Taro has, he would have made himself the final boss of MGS2. You just KNOW that's what he wanted to do.
Evan Williams
Fucking wish that left with the Godhand IP. A Godhand 2 would be glorious
Bentley Ortiz
>he would have made himself the final boss of MGS2. You just KNOW that's what he wanted to do.
I hope you're joking
Levi Thompson
At least your average Taro game is actually original instead of being a 5/10 license game. I'll take original average over licensed average.
Hudson Garcia
>He does game play and story right
Tyler Parker
Except Transformers was legit enjoyable
Evan Perry
by the time he got to v he just didn't give a shit about metal gear anymore. also konami booted him before it was finished
Michael Morales
I see you never played Bayonetta.
Luke Martinez
I'm starting to think you don't actually play video games and only view them through a meta lens.
Ethan Sanders
>by the time he got to v he just didn't give a shit about metal gear anymore.
True. Death Stranding will prove if he is really a hack or not.
Joshua King
You're gonna say with a straight face that MGS V WASN'T about the game play?
Wyatt Stewart
It was. The problem is that it sucked dick. GZ was better.
Angel Rogers
Heh. Stupid secondary. You just don't get it. This is YOKO. FUCKING. TARO. It doesn't "get" good, thats the point buddy, YOKO TARO. A mind as feeble as yours could never truly appreciate the genius of YOKO FUCKING TARO. The tedious combat represents the tedium in our lives, and being constantly interrupted to go play the hacking minigame symbolizes our desire to escape from the tedium, but only into another form of it. There is no escape, just like there is no escape from BASED YOKO TARO bringing us on his LOONY MAD MAN WILD RIDE yet again! You secondaries will just never get it!
Henry Baker
>GZ was better
Retard
Tyler Perry
I actually like some level design in my games
Benjamin Stewart
Not the guy you're responding too, but GZ was. And I actually like TPP, but GZ integrates the gameplay into the map and narrative far better than any point in TPP.
Benjamin Jones
yeah, exactly. let's wait and see if it's just a
>look at all my celeb friends
meme game or an actual bojangles' wild ride masterpiece
Adrian Brooks
>games so boring you talk about the devs more than the games themselves
Grayson Turner
What does the framerate in Drakengard 3 represent?
Leo Jones
like nier but with good gameplay
Jose Ortiz
it's more that there's nothing to talk about anymore since we waiting on the games and you can go to
>>>/reddit/
if you came for memes
Brayden Thomas
Hit a nerve?
Oliver Roberts
yes. kojimbo isn't a hack ;__; i swear
Lucas Gutierrez
When the people that make the games are more entertaining than the games themselves then that's a problem, especially when they just keep making the same game over and over again with a different artstyle
Ryan Hall
these
>game when
threads obviously tend to be more heavily focused on the devs themselves not their past works so that's where the memeability comes from. thats my opinion
