Why aren't you learning Japanese to play untranslated games?

Why aren't you learning Japanese to play untranslated games?

but i have

>learning a language to play shit games
nope.
If it doesn't get localized it didn't perform well in japan, and likely wouldn't perform well worldwide. Not everything's a personal assault on you, faggot. Sometimes the games are just shit.

I hope you aren't implying that a game is bad because it doesn't perform well in sales. I mean, that would be a very stupid thing to say, and you're not stupid, are you?

If it sold THAT poorly, yes, it does. People don't buy shit games, go figure.

I am though.

Its not worth it.

Only game I want to learn Japanese for is Yakuza Ishin, they'll never bring that over to the west.

VNs are not games.

There's no game I'm interested in

>playing girlfriend/dating simulators
no thanks, I take care of all that irl, and I don't even want to half the time.

HOLD IT!

How can you possibly say that when Call of Duty is still making so much money every year?

>Spending years learning a language just to jack off to porn I wont read anyway

sounds smart

Why would I want to play shit games made by semi-chinks?

>A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a TV screen or computer monitor.

Truly visuals novels are the call of duty of japan

>game sells like shit
>doesn't get localized
???
You don't like the call of duty games, fine. They're far from bad though. They're generic copypasted shit, but people like the stuff being copypasted, and they're not nearly as bad, horribly broken, or featureless as some garbage that gets shit out by japan as of late.

Because I'm learning a language that will actually be useful like Chinese!

The game is great, dingus. Ask anyone who's played it.

LMAO! Retard.

>t. Chink.

Pic related is all true.

But Ace Attorney is a good game. Same with SMT If.

Just because something isn't localized doesn't mean it isn't good. How would you even know?

>REEEEEEEEE! JUST AGREE WITH ME AND SHUT UP!!

Ordinarily this is the part where I would assert that opinions are being argued, but you haven't even introduced a contradictory opinion to the examples provided.
>All untranslated games are ass
-this game was really good and wasn't translated
>wow, you mad
Now if you wish to reformat your argument and present that, I'm sure we'd be happy to discuss on that basis.

So if it's so good, why WASN'T it translated then? I mean there must be a reason, no company would willingly throw money down the drain. This GREAT game should have been translated! I mean the persona games did SO well in the west on PS1. Ace attorney did SO well, sold gangbusters in the west. Why not translate?
Oh wait, they didn't sell.

Thanks for posting that picture
Every thread some mongoloid would come in and tell people to learn Chinese because it's """""useful""""

>I mean there must be a reason, no company would willingly throw money down the drain.
Referring to , you obviously don't know Capcom.

Because they don't think it will sell in the west.

Something being sold in large amounts has never correlated to it's quality.

so, you're literally admitting that i'm right, then saying i'm wrong? okay there retard. Enjoy struggling to play your shit games.

Because hamburgers and normalfags wouldn't play a game that isn't generic military shooter #99884 or something that was lucky enough to establish an international presence for a long time. Cultural preferences and exposure can absolutely influence whether something should be brought over.

>thinking the culture gap wouldn't matter and a game with gameplay or style of one kind will do the same everywhere
retard, this is why you don't work in marketing.

>GAME DOESN'T SELL
>GAME WON'T SELL
literally two lines that are the most distilled form of my argument and you regurgitated them yourself you fucking retard.

Your goalpost shifting ass was arguing that they never sold in their country of origin, while the other person was saying they wouldn't sell OUTSIDE of it.

Whether or not something sells has literally nothing to do with quality. Avatar made money over fist. It's also a terrible movie.

Because I'm a well adjusted, athletic, white upper-middle class male with a 3.7 GPA, with a social life and a girlfriend so I have no need for such pathetic escapism.

Yet you're on Sup Forums.

>3.7
Lol

I know it must be a shock that there aren't complete and utter failures among you.

but i am tho

>being this startled on an anonymous sewing board
Good job, you impressed him.

I don't need to learn japanese gaze upon the sweet bodies of lolis

is there even a single once of originality in these stories anyways?
