I don't think anybody at Sony is looking for... Unless it's like the most god tier of pitches, which God of War, massively popular IP. It's hard to think of a game or a pitch that kind of fits into what they're looking for. Yeah. Where it's not like... To me, you don't pitch a multiplayer game that requires an active player base. To me, you pitch something like Helldivers 2.

But that's a multiplayer game with an active player base. But it's not dependent on... I guess when I'm looking at a game... I meant Warhammer Space Marine 2. I'm sorry. I meant Warhammer Space Marine 2, where it's a game with a... You have your vertical of this is the campaign... and you go through a story that we are very proud of, and you're going to enjoy it.

And there may be a multiplayer aspect that's part of it. There may be some sort of live service-y thing like Ghost of Tsushima Legends. Like Ghost of Tsushima Legends that also has a multiplayer facet to it that is not the main reason why you are purchasing this product. You are buying this game to experience an awesome story, and we are known for our amazing narratives.

That's what we're pushing forward. And sure, there's this little multiplayer thing on the side that might make us some extra bucks. But I don't know that if you, like Barrett was just mentioning, if you are these corporate overlords, I don't know if you're really looking to listen about more multiplayer pitches that will likely fail.

And you're already cutting shit off before it's even given the opportunity to fail.

And I think the Destiny 2 thing makes a lot of sense. I think the Destiny 2, Division 2 sort of style of... This is still a campaign. There's still levels and progression. And it's not necessarily just 5v5 whatever. It's not necessarily...

extraction with pve elements no we we're still going to pitch a game that the single player audience will still love and enjoy and the single player audience isn't dependent on having three of their friends being online to join their lobby they can still play alone if they want to or whatever i i definitely see that as more of a possibility as opposed to hey we got this great idea but

On the flip side of what I just said and what we're talking about, this God of War thing already got canceled.

This other thing by Sony Ben already got canceled. So they're already at a point where you have this gigantic moment with Concord getting canceled. Mid-development, halfway, you know, the game gets released, the game gets shut down immediately. Yeah.

With these games not even coming out, with Sony Ben's game not even coming out and getting canceled, with Blue Point's game not even coming out and getting canceled, that signals to me that they have sounded the klaxons. There's like, hey, no more of this. We are not going to make money on this. And maybe Helldivers is the safe spot where they realize, let's take care of this baby.

Let's keep nurturing this little baby so it can keep on making money and maybe not try to take massive risks anymore.
