Bluepoint Games FINAL REPORT: From Bloodborne Remake Potential to Shuttered. **I spoke to 4 Bluepoint employees and this is THEIR STORY on timeline, dates, and codenames for projects: 🔵End of 2020- Bluepoint Ships Demon's Souls and talks begin with Sony Acquisition and working on more original projects: - Sony did not think the remakes/ remasters made enough money, and some people within BP and Sony wanted to branch out. - All heard that Shadow of The Colossus remake lost money, but it was assumed it would, but Yoshida wanted to preserve the game. - Shadow of The colossus remake biggest criticism was the new face on the main character. However, Fumito Ueda wanted it to look that way and designed it.  - There were conversations about doing add-on content to the remakes to help with funding into original content, and grow design department.  - It was assumed in the studio that BP would be remaking Bloodborne after Demon's Souls.  - Bluepoint had a design department of 1-2 people, but was not sufficient for a full project. 🔴2021 - Quote "In early 2021 after Demon Souls, studio staff assumed they would work on Bloodborne, and started to prepare to, however they did not get the greenlight due to internal politics of Bloodborne involving a fragile relationship with FromSoft, Sony, and the original IP." SOURCES DO NOT THINK BLOODBORNE REMAKE WILL EVER BE MADE DUE TO POLITICS! - Bloodborne was pulled from the table and BP had no project.  - BP was assigned to help with Ragnarök support due to SMS needing some help, and a combo of other factors. - Jim Ryan was pushing live service hard and Sony had a desire to explore making God of War into an Assassin's Creed style franchise.  - Franchise would explore different mythologies and characters.  - BP was NOT allowed to make a game with Kratos as SMS/ Sony did not trust BP with that and it would be too expensive.  - September 30th, 2021.. BluePoint is bought by Sony.  - Bp is acquired and tasked with coming up with an original project in the God of War universe. The catch was they needed to stretch the content, but BP employees did not know at the time it was a live service game.  - They stated "A gamble was made by convincing Sony to buy us instead of us looking for funding elsewhere."  - After the acquisition there was a culture change within Bluepoint. 🔵2022 - Prototyping begins for "Demon Souls meets God of War" also called CP13. - BP staff was not told initially that the game was a live service game.  - BP still had a minimal design team.  - BP did not have a Game Director for this project, was promised one on loan from SMS (Santa Monica Studio) and a couple designers once Ragnarök was shipped. 🔴End of 2022 - SMS Game Director and designers joined the team. - A lot of time was spent prototyping but the mesh of SMS/ BP did not go well as they were not familiar with BP's engine, fully remote work due to covid, and hiring freezes at sony.  - Very soon after SMS folks arrived, BP staff learned the game they were having to make was a live service game and they needed to work with what they had.  - Internal issues began to arise, and the ones on board with live service were the head shed at SMS, Sony, and BP.  - It was unclear whether BP leadership believed in the project, or just doing their best to salvage morale.  - About 75% of staff employees, according to sources, were against this move and pushed back against making a live service.  - After deadlines were not hit, internal strife from employees, the project was canceled by Sony in early 2025. 🔵2025 Bluepoint begins pitching projects to Sony. - They pitched Jak and Daxter remake, resistance remake, shadow of colossus remaster (bringing game to PS5, updating graphics, adding 4-6 new bosses, with several pulled from the original ps2 content. - Bloodborne Remake was again pitched. A small portion of the team worked on it for 2-3 months, but Sony pulled the plug. (It was never officially greenlit, but they were deep in negotiations and BP thought they would make it). 2 new IP's, and worked on some small pitches all under CP-13 folder, and then CodeName "Black Fang" CP-14 was pitched.  - CodeName "Black Fang" was a ghost of Tsushima spinoff that Sony liked.  - Sony gave Bluepoint 5-6 months to prototype it (until end of March 2026) to prove they could make it.  - Employees felt it was going okay even though it was never officially greenlit and were on track to hit deadline.  - Employees found out on February 19th that they were being shut down and project Black Fang is canceled. Studio last day is March 2nd, 2026. It is worth noting that Bluepoint did use contractors, however majority of the people stayed at the studio from Shadow until shuttering. About 40 employees have been there the entire time, with the rest being contractors. This obviously has fluctuated with retirements, deaths, and turnovers. According to all sources, people stayed at Bluepoint and wanted to continue to stay there! A sad story to such a wonderful group of talented artists!

Remove 4/1 ff at 15 I'm so serious

@nocturnologist How were you born?

@Crow_Akai Did you even play the game?

I hate men

@punannieannie @deeore5

when you stuck in a hole: start an OnlyFans

@NicholasLightTV @Twitch Don't forget giving birth live

we heard you like games

@Colonel_1917 @LIMBOLIBRARY 15 year olds talking about rape culture man sybau and go play outside

@LIMBOLIBRARY "I'm 15 y.o." Yes, that's all i needed to know

this is rape culture at play by the way. this obsession over women being sexually brutalized in fiction and then mass producing your little figurines to sell to young men who develop sick obsessions is insanely dangerous

@_kboozer @werewolfblake Both are true

@werewolfblake But they say the gays and drag queens are grooming children

Brainwashing a child is crazy work.

@IWDominate Your first mistake was expecting any logical thought process from Reddit

Reddit has removed my video (which is pure analysis about EU drafting and how they contested a drake in MDK vs KT and G2 vs TES) because it is a "rant or sob story" The title has nothing to do with "ranting" and is simply just me talking about why I don't like B1 Sion with B2/B3 Xayah Rakan and why Caitlyn/Alistar doesn't make sense to me.

@Absrev @SCShipyards

@SCShipyards i literally don't know a single dnd player who isn't at least a little queer, and i've been playing for 25 years now

They literally did the meme.

@_Lunerim_ Can't decide betwenn KC2 and Expedition 33

A great year for gamers. What's your TOP 3 Game of the Year contenders so far this year?

@luxondice @gigaskunk Effort is good

@gigaskunk this takes a lot more effort though

see how good this looks when its well edited by a person den sum gay ass sora prompt

@elbethium Wrong

Demon's Souls Remake Is superior to the OG game in every way possible. The game looks, feels and plays(like the omidirectional dodging) BETTER. Saying they "butchered it" , doesnt give you some wise veteran status, it makes you look like a stubborn child.

@lotfgame Carrying what now?

Two years of carrying the torch for soulslikes. There is only one way to celebrate: a good old fashioned megabonk of our own (and plenty more goodies). To all 5.5 million of our worldwide lamp bearing family, thank you. From Mournstead, with blood. lordsofthefallen.com/news/lords-of-…

@exaliamg @infernodan @SaskioLoL Pros cannot even begin to imagine the skill that Kadeem has

@infernodan @SaskioLoL Ok but there’s no way pros can’t recreate that flash

This is one of the highest levels of flash usage I have ever seen

@dd_dandreh @Weaglelol

@Weaglelol This says a lot about LS

@heartlesskrook @cookimyun What is there to think about?

@cookimyun Sometimes they don’t even think once about it

@mrphillipchan Retard

If Ghost of Yotei made Atsu look like this, the game woulda sold a million copies by now

@szmulcio @RiotPhroxzon No

@RiotPhroxzon Hot take, but maybe buff doran shield? or make its healing conditional with how often an enemy champion autoattacks you? Ranged tops might be dead for once but i dont think the general majority would complain

Lane Swaps changes for Worlds We're making a change in 25.20 to improve the viewer experience around lane swaps, while trying to strike the balance of being respectful to teams who qualified on these strategies. Lane swap penalty timer will be going to 4:00 in Top Lane only - This is 30s longer than the timing at First Stand in March 1. Teams that have practiced the strategy will still be viable in certain situations (still fine in the best cases, but harder to pull off in the worst cases) 2. We know that many fans are excited to tune into Worlds to watch the best Top Laners vs the best Top Laners and the ADC's vs the best ADC's, not the best ADC's bullying a Top Laner 3. At the same time, we know many people like that teams can play a lot of diverse and creative strategies at Worlds and we don't want to be overly disruptive to that We think this change tries to strike the best balance for being respectful to teams and creating the best viewer experience we can. Really looking forward to World's, it's gonna be awesome!
