Fire Emblem in 2017

What the fuck went wrong?

Otaku pandering

Can't you just make a fucking normal thread about a game you want to talk about? Does every OP need to be baiting? Yeah you get discussion going but how valuable is a 200 post thread that is 50% retards arguing about shit nobody cares about compared to a 100 post thread of actual discussion?

Your sexuality

People love memes. Make a new thread.

>our series is not doing as well as we want, how do we improve it?
>turn up the waifu bait

worked for fire emblem, now it's working for xenoblade.

Not enough spinoffs
That's what went wrong op. Only one fucking spinoff

This. Pandering to permavirgin NEET lowlifes became the norm in Japan. You want a game to make easy money? Slap unnecessary fanservice in it. Easy money, even though they need to turn a respectable franchise into a shell of its former self for it.

Maybe at one point, but now bait threads always seem to evolve into actual discussion, while sincere threads always end up as shitpost general or porn dumps.

NO
FUCKING
