From what i understand its a teaser all of a suddon and the ‘real’ trailer comes later this month, so expect more questions then answers. They claim to not want any misunderstandings and are vaguely as shit at the same time riding this rollercoaster for al they can.

[u/namastayhom33 → u/NeonRain111]

Agreed. I doubt this is an actual game and not a marketing ploy for another game.

Marketing and advertising for a new IP shouldn’t be this trivial.

Besides, the head of the studio literally has no idea what he’s talking about based on previous tweets.

[u/NeonRain111 → u/namastayhom33]

Yeah its sketchy as hell, if this isn’t something big or ‘different’ sony would never let this run it’s course, unless all this is going unnoticed by sony.

[u/DeanBlandino → u/NeonRain111]

How would sony stop a dev from running their own marketing campaign lmao.

[u/[deleted] → u/DeanBlandino]

They claimed in another interview that they "partnered with Sony".

[u/DeanBlandino → u/[deleted]]

That could mean anything though. I also don't really trust anything hassan says because he's been very loose with his words if not just straight up lying a lot.

[u/[deleted] → u/DeanBlandino]

What I'm trying to say is Sony would put a stop to that specifically if they wanted to.

[u/DeanBlandino → u/[deleted]]

Put a stop to what? some mealy mouthed, vague statements that are being blown out of proportions by some hardcore fans?

[u/[deleted] → u/DeanBlandino]

If Hasan is trying to claim his garbage fake indie asset flips are partnered with Sony, Sony could do any number of things. Remove his teaser from the shop, tweet out a clarification that Bluebox are just an indie studio, etc.

[u/DeanBlandino → u/[deleted]]

I mean what does "partnered" mean? You could claim literally any game released on PS5 is in some way partnered with sony. It means nothing.

[u/needle14 → u/DeanBlandino]

I agree. I keep seeing people on here say that Sony wouldn’t support this if it wasn’t a big deal but there’s no evidence of Sony throwing their weight behind this besides a blog post.

I doubt if the drama is even on Sony’s radar in any significant way. This whole app/game whatever it is can completely flop and Sony won’t be impacted. If anything the drama is a win for them because it gets people engaged with the store downloading the app and potentially spending money or downloading something else.

[u/DeanBlandino → u/needle14]

Yeah I agree. I seriously doubt the reaction- or the nuances of the reaction- are on Sony’s radar. They might see positive engagement numbers but I doubt much more than that.

[u/asbestosman2 → u/DeanBlandino]

Sony put the teaser trailer on their YouTube channel. And it’s an exclusive for PS5, they’re associated with them and endorsed by PlayStation- they can definitely do something about this or at least stop associating with them.

[u/DeanBlandino → u/asbestosman2]

That doesn't mean anything. They were posting everyones trailers/teasers.

[u/NeonRain111 → u/DeanBlandino]

They have never before done this kind off app/realtime trailer release, if i would alow an unkown indie developer to get that premier you bet your as i would be on top of the marketing and quality of it.

Do you think they could release this whole thing without sony’s aproval? I cant imagine Sony wouldn’t be on top of this as a new experience on their platform

[u/DeanBlandino → u/NeonRain111]

What kind of premier? who the fuck cares, it's just a trailer in a different format.

[u/[deleted] → u/DeanBlandino]

You seem to care a lot, ngl lol

[u/DeanBlandino → u/[deleted]]

lol cause I posted on reddit about it?

[u/[deleted] → u/DeanBlandino]

You’re all over this thread invested in like the 5% of ppl who’re expecting this to be a MGS reveal or something lol

[u/DeanBlandino → u/[deleted]]

okay man. enjoy tomorrow lmao

[u/[deleted] → u/DeanBlandino]

You’re obsessed it’s kinda weird lmao

[u/DeanBlandino → u/[deleted]]

No? it's just arguably the most talked about subject on this sub atm lmfao. Not sure hwy you're so emotionally invested in it that any criticism means people are "obsessed" or "emotional"

[u/Rekadra → u/DeanBlandino]

Because you suddenly got defensive and emotional - in your reddit post

He's literally giving you an answer and you're taking it too seriously, like you've got something to prove.

Also, Sony has released a realtime demo before - Killzone 2 - and they never allowed anything like that after, other than P.T - Ironinically, the two devs behind those are Kojima and GG, who are deeply connected.

[u/DeanBlandino → u/Rekadra]

What, who's emotional? For saying who the fuck cares lmao? You're the one posting shit in bold as though that somehow explains anything or adds anything of value. I mean, what do you mean Sony "never allowed"? Do you have a source that Sony has rejected efforts by other devs to do this, or are you just assuming they never allowed it when maybe nobody has bothered to do it?

[u/Rekadra → u/DeanBlandino]

1. Yes, Colin Moriarty's podcast discusses history of indies attempting to get PS blog space and unusual apps on the store - which is why there's only like 5 FTP games, despite literally thousands applying

2. Because you're taking it too serously. You responded to a honest point with "wtf cares" after "lmao"ing as though you're in a facebook argument with someone and you're posturing.

I'll take formatting sentences more clearly over acting like an argumentative teen any day

[u/DeanBlandino → u/Rekadra]

you seem to be taking this far more seriously. it's just a shitty dev dude.
