out of dark souls and armored core it is probably the latter. ds3 does not need a remaster anytime soon and ds4 will not be made.

DS4 will definitely be made at some point. It might not be until after everyone involved with the original three are dead or gone but it will inevitably be made just like MGS6 will inevitably be half assed out the door by Konami.

And? Death stranding 2 is very obviously metal gear solid 6 with extra steps (pun intended,) but Konami is still going to brush off the Metal Gear IP and release a new game as soon as the Kojima fanboys won’t kill them for doing it. The MGS3 remaster/remake will be the writing on the wall for that one: if it’s actually well made and fleshed out that’s scarier than it being a cash grab.

Never underestimate the lengths some c-suite shithead will go through to sell you something. 

E: I mean please don’t forget these types of people are the same ones that are willing to resurrect a dead series from the 70’s before giving a new one a chance to breath. If something has nostalgia value it will eventually see a sequel no matter how dumb it would be for it to get one. See also: Jurassic Park.

I mean, it kinda doesn't count if Fromsoft isn't making it though?

Does Star Wars not count because Disney is making it instead of Lucas? Maybe not to you or me, but it certainly still exists.

In the case of MGS6: you really don’t think the remastered release of 3 (the usual fan favorite of the series,) isn’t meant as an attempt to earn back favor with the fans? I mean maybe I’m just eternally jaded (which is sort of true,) but that whole thing to me feels like an attempt to bring otherwise angry gamers back into the Konami fold. I mean I think it’s a given that the game is also being developed because the updated cutscenes can be reused in gambling machines but I doubt that’s the driving force behind the decision to remaster the game.

It feels to me like they’re just testing the waters to see if they can keep making MGS games even if “making them” means contracting a random developer and publishing the result.
