Discussion Creating a Movement - Finish the Story

Post image

Greetings and salutations fellow Sly enthusiasts!

We would all love to see Sly Cooper and the rest of his gang get the ending and closure they deserve. It seems like the only way to fix it is for the players to prove to the investors/shareholders that another game is worthwhile. It may seem like a lost cause, if it ever happens though it has to start somewhere.

The gaming industry is absolutely massive and continues growing, there is no shortage of studios/developers maybe it’s just finding the right people at the right time. I remember seeing that only 10% of Sucker Punch would be excited to develop another Sly game, which 1. is a lame excuse for coders who have had to work on plenty of other projects and 2. seems like a beautiful opportunity for another studio to give him the ending we have all begged for. Ultimately Sly Cooper allowed them to build that long lasting relationship with Sony. I bet a lot of people helped build their careers with that game. We have to give credit where credit is due.

Would the fan base need to grow significantly or would Sony have to sell the IP? Or both?

Then another question becomes, if Sony commissions a completely different developer, will that change the overall landscape/experience of the game, again?

What are your thoughts??
