I can only hope for a Rosalina game as well down the line. As for Rise Of The Ronin I think the reason why it’s mixed is because the Blue Ocean confused this for Ghost Of Tsushima which is more about “graphics” and “power” than a Fromsoft style game that rewards you on your patience and does not prioritize graphics but gameplay. I do think it will sell well overseas and it will be appreciated much more on PC than it will be on PS5 currently especially FF Rebirth. Unless Sony changes its policy and returns it’s HQ back to Japan they are in trouble.

As for DD2 I think Capcom is at fault for not allowing more time for Itsuno and his team to develop the engine for open world and to add onto the features rather than rush things out and overload MTX for fiscal year.
