This is why developers simply don't bother anymore.
visual novels and jrpgmaker trash are pcbro territory

>RTS
That newly released Warhammer 40k game just got shit all over it specifically because it's not an RTS anymore, it's some dumbed-down ASSFAGGOT for the dota/LoL audience.
Jeremiah Cox
How about Senrans? Neps? Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyballs?
Blake Gonzalez
Isn't the Sakura series made by Western weebs aping anime VN style?

>unique western games with ACTUAL GAMEPLAY name em
Sebastian Walker
Don't pretend these aren't the most entertaining
They don't exist because the west developed their idea of games around Dungeons and Dragons while Japan developed their idea of gaming around arcades
Nathan Anderson
Kusoge is exactly what OP is talking about and most of it is Sony's fault
Anthony Russell
i see the same shit with shmups. jamestown looks a trillion times more stylistically unique, but shit like crimzon clover ends up being the meme shmup of the century. it's all either scifi shipshit or touhou maidwaifushit. i don't play shmups but that's it looks like a similar weebshit situation whenever i see them on steam
Hudson Evans
Easy
TIS-100 Factorio The Talos Principle Neko Para.... fuck!
William Howard
I admit I was thinking more about the Starcraft franchise, but there are still plenty of decent western RTS releases like Cossacks 3. Offworld Trading Company, and so forth.
Jack Foster
Call of Duty WW2
Mason Torres
What I played of Jamestown was boring as fuck. Granted, I haven't played a lot of them, but it was easily the worst.

>beautiful, well-crafted, unique western games with ACTUAL GAMEPLAY
Note: They're all western, even though it isn't specified.
Nicholas Moore
yeah maybe. i'm not sure how you fuck up "shoot enemies in a vertical line" gameplay, so to me it's only style that separates them, and the weebshit always ends up being the preferable "style" despite being the most generic/boring looking.
Jaxon Scott
lol yea your anime steam games are worse than console kusoge is what im getting at
Zachary Taylor
The only people who buy the 'same looking weeb pandering' games are the ones who like that shit in the first place.
AAA/'well crafted' Western games get hyped the fuck up, millions buy them, and then only a small majority of them like it.
Owen Gomez
go back to play senran kagura and pretend its a fun game
Easton Stewart
Show me an anime steam game worse than Senran Kagura
Robert Flores
>instantly throw away any game that has a "waifu" character
There. Problem solved. For example, I throw away trash like Splatoon, Bayonetta, Senran Kagura, Hyperdimension Neptunia, Zelda, etc.
If your game needs tits and waifus, it's automatically a bad game. It's an olympic runner who needs crutches and steroids, and without them couldn't walk to his mailbox without having a heart attack.
Jonathan Bell
any western indie crafting sandbox survival game automatically has shittier gameplay than Tittyninjas.
Sebastian Gonzalez
Even western indieshit is miles ahead of any moonrune-clicker.
This War of Mine, Yooka-Laylee, Factorio, Don't Starve, The Swapper, Primordia, I could go on forever.
All of these bring something new to the table and actually have a real genre and playing style. Meanwhile, "Shizu Bo-Kokorriri 32" does not.
Isaac Wright
>oepn-world >crafting >survival >early access >with titty ninjas it'd be the most popular videogame ever made
Juan Ortiz
Well of course, since it would actually have gameplay. Most tittyninjas aren't even "games" though, they're visual novels and glorified Tamaguchi's.
