Video games trade veteran Hideki Kamiya has shared that he nonetheless needs to make sequels to PS2 classics Okami and Viewtiful Joe.
Today, Kamiya might be greatest often known as the creator of Bayonetta, although all through his yr he is created a wide range of titles. You clearly cannot overlook Devil May Cry, however there’s after all two different beloved titles he created too: Viewtiful Joe and Okami. The previous did get a sequel, however the latter Zelda-like RPG by no means did, and it looks like that that is one thing that eats away at Kamiya a bit, as within the second a part of his interview with Ikumi Nakamura (who beforehand labored on Bayonetta herself), he spoke of his need to make an Okami 2. „The story ended halfway, so leaving it as it’s, I really feel unhealthy,“ Kamiya stated.
„Creators, I believe, have the obligation to create sequels followers are eager to see. Though I sound all excessive and mighty, it has been awhile since I’ve moved on from Okami. However I nonetheless really feel like I have never fulfilled my obligation. So Capcom, please, let’s do it collectively.“ Even Nakamura herself stated „please“ as Okami was one other title she labored on with Kamiya – actually it was her first credited sport position. I am no Kamiya or Nakamura, however I might fairly fortunately see an Okami 2, too, Capcom!
In addition to Okami 2, Kamiya additionally spoke of a hypothetical Viewtiful Joe 3. Whereas Okami made a latest look on a Capcom survey, asking followers in the event that they’d like a sequel, Viewtiful Joe did not make an look on the survey. „It is solely as a result of eight individuals have performed Viewtiful Joe,“ Kamiya quipped. „That sport additionally ended mid-way, so I would like to complete it. The survey that Capcom did final time did not have Viewtiful Joe as an choice, so I despatched a response saying ‚I’m Hideki Kamiya, let me make Viewtiful Joe’s sequel.'“
Maybe unsurprisingly, his remark did not make it into the survey outcomes. „The director himself is asking to make the sport once more however they will not even speak about it. What the hell, Capcom?“ Kamiya requested. „The place did my remark go? They’re going to submit feedback from different gamers like ‚Resident Evil was my first sport I purchased for my PlayStation‘ or ‚I’ve all the time loved enjoying Mega Man since I used to be a child.‘ These feedback are necessary, however it could’ve been good in the event that they talked about me too. Hear me out as a director, please. I am human too. I am additionally a gamer. I want they’d deal with me equally like players.“
You possibly can’t actually intonate tone from textual content so I ought to guarantee you that each him and Nakamura have been laughing collectively whereas having this dialogue, so Kamiya most likely is not all that minimize up about it. Capcom ought to let him make an Okami 2 and Viewtiful Joe 3, although.
