Sintesi

TLDRSony's AAA Lego game, developed by Gorilla Games and Studio Gobo instead of the traditional Travelers Tales Studio, has underperformed significantly. Marketed for a declining IP and sold at a high price, the game has received fewer reviews and players compared to another game, Concord. Despite a massive development team and substantial investment—potentially resulting in a $100 million loss for Sony—it did not meet expectations on platforms like Steam and the PlayStation Store. This event raises concerns about employment impacts and corporate strategies for game releases.

    The discussion highlights the poor performance of 'Lego Horizon Adventures', a game marketed as a AAA title for a declining IP at a high price of €70 or $60. Despite being developed by notable studios, Guerrilla Games and Studio Gobo, rather than the renowned Traveler's Tales, it failed to attract players, receiving fewer reviews on PlayStation Store than 'Concord', and performing even worse on Steam with significantly fewer peak players. The game likely resulted in a significant financial loss for Sony, estimated at $100 million including marketing costs. The commentary reflects on the potential impact such a failure could have had on employment and humorously imagines a world where Sony invested similarly in 'Bloodborne' leading to global benefits.

    oh I did see this in another black eye
  • 00:00:03
    for Sony Lego Horizon Adventures debuts
  • 00:00:06
    to even less players than
  • 00:00:08
    Concord wait wait wait I know what
  • 00:00:10
    you're thinking who cares about a Lego
  • 00:00:12
    game but this is no ordinary Lego game
  • 00:00:14
    as this was marketed as a multiplatform
  • 00:00:16
    triple a game for a declining IP and
  • 00:00:18
    being sold for the exorbitant price of
  • 00:00:20
    €70 or $60 but here's the catch the game
  • 00:00:24
    wasn't made by the legendary Travelers
  • 00:00:26
    Tales Studio known for their Lego games
  • 00:00:28
    instead Sony Comm this to Gorilla Games
  • 00:00:31
    which is the studio that made Killzone
  • 00:00:33
    and Studio Gobo which specializes in
  • 00:00:35
    developing AAA games as you might
  • 00:00:37
    suspect the credits length for this game
  • 00:00:39
    is insane and even though the video is
  • 00:00:41
    shorter than the infamous Concord one
  • 00:00:43
    there's still more than 800 people
  • 00:00:45
    listed on a freaking Lego game while
  • 00:00:47
    receiving less reviews on the
  • 00:00:48
    PlayStation Store than Concord and even
  • 00:00:50
    worse on Steam where the game peaked at
  • 00:00:52
    1/4 of concord's peak players this game
  • 00:00:55
    was marketed as a AAA and most likely
  • 00:00:57
    netted Sony a $100 million loss with you
  • 00:01:00
    include the advertising budget oh man we
  • 00:01:02

  • 00:01:14
    it can you imagine in the alternate
  • 00:01:15
    universe where Sony tried as hard to
  • 00:01:17
    make bloodborne happen as they do with
  • 00:01:19
    Horizon and how much better the entire
  • 00:01:21
