I dunno, but is it video games?
To a degree, yes. Western games have become far more expensive and ambitious, creating higher benchmarks in terms of sales goals. But this can be seen as a detriment.
a perfect example of this would be Mass Effect: Andromeda. An ambitious idea, a sequel to a big franchise, multi-millions of dollars in development costs and as a result, the game was riddled with development problems, bugs, and low quality animation. It bombed and failed to make back the development costs, which potentially put the final nail in the mass effect coffin.
Pic related is far more fitting to the current western game market.
lol fuck off weeb
No
No.
In terms of dumping money into things that aren't necessary to create a cinematic experience, yes. In terms of actually making a good, unique game, no.
>focused on gameplay
Would you buy Peco Sup Forums?
Yes, everything anime tells you is true.
higher standards graphically and story-wise sure
western games generally have inferior gameplay, run worse, are far less polished and optimized, etc.
>weebs blown the fuck out by their own anime
lmao
Somewhat.
I've yet to play any western game as blatantly on a shoestring budget as some really D-list jrpgs. Some of them make up for it by having decent mechanics or fun gameplay even if it's repetitive, but the bad ones are really really bad.
I would do it for Aoba
The ruined this character the moment she cut her hair.
And because of those standards they are not original at all.
Yes
Only good Jap games make it to us barbarians
There's myriads of kusoge shovelware that was never localized
The only people who actually like weeb shit are western weebs. Japs long realised that western videogames are superior. Thats why you see so much anime dogshit popping on steam
This
Neptunia is the perfect example: renowned kusoge in Japan, yet there's a massive community in the West that unironically enjoys it
Is that why the best selling games in Japan are all japanese?
Is this true?
No.
source?
>focused on gameplay
I think they're both at fault for playing the wrong games from Japan while she has to be cherry picking good Western games.
Yes.
the glass is arways gleener...
Of course we have higher standards, any standards are higher than waifushit pandering.
>Western games focus on gameplay
What is this fantasy anime?
>focused on gameplay
Someone called me?
haha woah
Does the west rip-off japan, or does Japan rip-off the west? It's pretty simple.
Do you really want to know, user?
Is Punk even considered gaijin? He doesn't look exactly black, more like Indian mix or something and indians are asia.
>Lets players are also retarded in japan
Wew
>Do you really want to know, user?
Is it not a manga about arcade players? If it isn't then no, you can keep it.
Would you argue that it's not? The most well known western games are primarily if not exclusively gameplay focused
Is this the Claymore artist?
Westaboos, Japan has just as big a problem with them as we do Weeaboos. It's a known fact. Remember when Inafune wanted to make a dark, grim, and gritty remake of Megaman as a first person shooter? Because I feel like people forget that way too often. There are Japanese people who think about the West the same way some people her in the West think about Japan.
She most likely plays multiplayer shooters on steam and whatever FOTM Otoja is shilling on their youtube channel. Westaboos in Japan are pretty annoying.
Nah, there is no video games what so ever.
Kek, yeah, apparently he did Claymore too, I didn't know that.
>unironically
user...
>everyone around them is stereotypical asian
>they are kawaii uguu animoo
>focused on gameplay
How do I get in contact with the studio/writer/whoever to ask them what they meant by this? This has me more curious than it should.
It was the giant foreheads that made me remember.
>The price you have to pay to be protagonist
she makes a compelling point but the guy makes an even better point that western games would be better if they had cute girls in them.
You shitting me? Western games are focused on the "cinematic experience." Jap games have a way better reputation for being okay with having a larger gameplay focus.
>Nintendo games
>Capcom games like MH or DD
>From Software
And people fucking hate what companies like Konami have done to Castlevania by making it more western. The only western genre that is "focused on gameplay" would be FPS games.
Probably the fuckhuge amount of visual novels, mindless grinds and text box simulators.
You've got hundreds upon hundreds of western games that focus on gameplay too, FPS, sports games, Mobas, etc. Guess thats what they meant.
Lol, no.
I was thinking the other day: the "Western" games I'm expecting the most are made in Turkey (Bannerlord), Czech Republic (Kingdom Come Deliverance) and Poland (Cyberpunk).
It's not meant to be taken seriously, it's only bantz between two extreme fandoms.
Ah, I forget about Sports and MOBAs since those genres are shit, but you are correct. I guess they could be talking about multiplayer games as well, where MMOs see more popularity in Nippon
What's that saying, "The grass is always greener..."?
Yea
>says this while oyveywatch sells a fuckload to this day
>Westaboos, Japan has just as big a problem with them as we do Weeaboos.
I doubt they have nearly as many weastboos per capita as we have weaboos.
Hey, at least Overwatch has decent polish, animation and voice work unlike most waifubait games out of Japan. We have higher standards for waifubait games.
>weeb intensifies
Run for the fucking hills lads. This is not going to end well.
youtube.com
These guys are the biggest westaboos in japan. Whenever you see a japanese person talking about western video games, it's always whatever these guys are playing.
What a faggot. If non-shit genres then it's pretty obvious western games are superior due to the amount of grand strategy games they produce compared to the east.
>gameplay
which isekai is this?
Nobunaga's Ambition is quite good
>giant foreheads
Is there a chance it's actually his fetish and not just weird design style?
>biggest westaboo in japan
That would be Kojima.
>focused on gameplay
Then why are all the good fighting games, shoot-em-ups, ass kickingly hard platformers/metroidvania's and grind-heavy RPG's from Japan?
What company is this?
look at all the japanese games trying to be skyrim, you cant deny the influence.
>Westaboo makes movie games
Look at the biggest games. Pubg, CoD, CSGO, DOTA, LoL, Madden, FIFA, these games drive the western market and are all highly focused on gameplay above story. Even DOS2 was more praised for its gameplay than story and it's an RPG. Compare that MG, FF, Xenogear, SMT which are all lauded for their stories, even Pokemon is going more for story. And those are just the big names, don't forget the huge VN market in Japan that the west lacks almost entirely. If that's not story over gameplay I don't know what is.
Streum on studio
This manga is the best. He's too pure for this world.
Don't bother, weebs are delusional.
liking or not COD, the best selling franchise of last gen is exclusive Multiplayer focus, it does have a story mode but only weirdos care about it
if the gameplay is good is another topic,
>Pubg, CoD, CSGO, DOTA, LoL, Madden, FIFA,
now look me in the eyes and tell me:
those games would not be better if they had cute anime girls on it?
>multiplayer vs single player games
Also SMT games (not Persona games) are extremely gameplay focused
>Dumbed down multiplayer games with microtransactions compared to classics focused on gameplay that happen to have good stories
Y I K E S
fuck yes
why are they not making awesome games like that?
also aobas awesome key vidual > kyous boring shit
It started good but after Hirataki arc it was downhill, it felt like Author just didn't know what to do with all these amazing characters, so he went for wierd spin-offs instead.
LoL does have cute anime girls in it?
I feel like I'm the only one in the world who has the sentiment "if it's fun it's a good game".
Like, regardless if it's a walking sim, multiplayer only, western made, jap made, cute girls and erotic, or super fucking edgy, as long as i can have my good fun with it in reason of the price tag it's done it's purpose as a videogame.
Yagami's drawing is more aesthetic and has better composition. Aoba's looks like an indie game.
>all the people ITT talking about how the Japanese games industry is nothing but AAA releases like Nintendo and whatever
>all the people ITT who are probably completely unaware of the literally hundreds of fucking awful VNs, RPG maker games and the like that are using 20year+ engines that still can't even run in greater than 1024x768 resolution every year
is that angel densetsu?
Can a walking simulator be fun?
Western Rpgs are mainly focused on player expression rather than telling a story.
not enough
The only one out of the few I've played that has really been a nonstop fun experience was tales from the borderlands. Most aren't really though. (I consider walking simulators taletale games, not shit like minecraft and dayz)
Yeah, it's still got plenty to continue reading for though. Even if the girls do sometimes look like aliens, they're all cute in their own way.
love too play ride the bull
In that anime, they work in a reputable company. There are also Western games that are the equivalent of "game made on RPG maker"
wish she had a game where she was autistic
You don't see this mentioned often.
The fact that the west focuses on multiplayer games still lends to my point doesn't it. Also I'd argue that SMT games all have a heavy story focus, aside from Persona it's debatable whether or not it's over gameplay but it's still there to a great extent
>focused on gameplay
Why are Japs are literally lying to themselves?
I dont think anyone would debate that
A game can be good for its story or its gameplay or both
I think everyone just has a case of "the grass is greener on the other side" The true answer is to have more Japanese and western collaborations.
>western games
>quality control
A bugged Japanese game is a mistake. A broken western game is a release feature to hype the first month of patches.
There are more Western RPGs than Fallout 4 and Skyrim user... Also please find me a jrpg I can play as an adult without rolling my eyes like I have a demonic possession.
figures really
...
Even Japs know they have shit taste
