Sony's Shuhei Yoshida Explains How He Finds Time to Play Many Games and Talks Bloodborne's Development  |  DualShockers

QuoteYoshida-san explained that because of his job, he has to try many different games, including any new games that people are talking about and that are reviewed positively, in order to see what they're doing right. That said, he plays lots of games, but he doesn't necessarily plays them all in depth.

When a game like Bloodborne comes out, he can justify putting many hours into it, because it's a very important game for Sony, and he has to make sure it's good.

He also has the privilege to play games when they're still in development, but that means that many of the games he plays are still in a state in which they have issues. With Bloodborne he was able to play the game during the final few months of development, and at that stage lots of things still feel wrong. During the process Hidetaka Miyazaki and his team kept getting feedback from the testers and kept polishing the game over and over.

Yoshida-san was able to see the polishing process from alpha, to beta, to release, and the development team kept making changes until the last moment. The game was delayed because they needed the time to really polish it, and according to Yoshida-san, it shows.

Because CEO's really don't do that much. He can sit in his office and do whatever he feels like all day and make more money than all of us combined. Twitch streams don't got shame on shu.

Simple, he remote plays everything on his Vita.  He plays PS4 games everywhere he goes.
