It really is remarkable how much they're not capitalizing on this one game...
It's remarkable they constantly keep telling everyone how the company doesn't have enough original IPs. Yet will shit out another live-service no one wants nor asked for at the drop of a hat.

I believe they have not ported Bloodborne because they have few Japanese-speaking game devs left who can read the code and tools after shutting down and firing everyone at Japan Studio. That rumored Gravity Rush 2 port is probably being worked on by one guy, lol. FromSoftware makes more money making new games for three platforms, so they're not interested in doing the work for Sony.

Get a grip on reality, Zekes.

If I had to guess there has to be something in the contract FromSoft and Sony signed for the game. Sony might own the IP but not the code or something in that realm. I don't believe Sony wouldn't be milking Bloodborne for everything they can unless there is something big preventing them from doing so.

S*** ******N, eh? Such tantalizing possibilities

Shit Captain
Sexy Hoedown
Slut Unicorn

or the most hilarious option

Star Citizen

EDIT: it's since been rumored the full title is Split Fiction, which, if correct, is excruciatingly banal

Do you have a source on that? All the hits I get when searching for that phrase emphasize that it is a rumored title. And besides, the word "split" is one letter too long to fit.

The screenshot is outdated. That twitter post was updated so the first word has 5 characters.


Tho you are right that "split fiction" is at this point only rumor. I've updated my post to reflect this

Remember when EA's John Riccitiello said "When you are six hours into playing Battlefield and you run out of ammo in your clip and we ask you for a dollar to reload", and it was met with mockery and derision?

Watch him get vindicated eventually.

And it will stick. Because gamers are spineless, and fomo will easily override whatever principles they think they hold.
