Why do people constantly criticize Western game developers for practices like reusing assets, releasing buggy launches, or relying on nostalgia, yet seem to give Japanese developers a free pass when they do the exact same things?
>>
>>722832270
Don't think this happens.

>>722832426
It does, he's 100% right.
>>
>>722832270
Western games have billion-dollar (advertising) budgets and could easily afford to rebuild the game from scratch
Japanese games do it on a shoestring budget with a tried-and-true philosophy of "more of the same but better"

This isn't true in the slightest but I know you don't care about having a genuine discussion in examples where the jap games might have received justified criticism for any of the reasons you listed so I'll just make this post and leave you to enioy your ragebait thread and moving your goalposts whenever it suits you best.
>>
>>722832763
Its worse than that actually. A lot of ads are actively malicious towards society and want it to burn to make the jews that own the corporations even richer. A rruly diabolical people unironcally the synagogue of satan.

While it's generally true that western studios have more money to play with, most simply don't and are just about as cash strapped as nip ones.
>>
>>722832625
This isn't true. Japs are capable of the same shit with the same money but just don't use their intelligence to steer a good game sometimes. See Final Fantasy.

...is something you lack; you were just proven wrong, but okay
>>
>>722832270
The reason why it seems to be like this is that the people who complain about asset reuse are western shitheads who only play western games out of pure racism and other types of hatred and consequently hate everything about everything including asset reuse in video games, while the people who don't complain about asset reuse are capable of playing everything including japanese games and are capable of love and not bitching about irrelevant shit.
You need to make sure that the way you categorize things is accurate in order to discover whether or not perceived contradictions actually exist.

People like Japan because there are very few niggers in Japan. It’s the ultimate white flight.

>>722832270
>reusing assets
anyone that complains about this is a fucking retard and pretty much everyone agrees
>buggy launches
I genuinely can't think of japanese games that are buggy enough to point out besides pokemon
>nostalgia
I rarely see people complain about relying on nostalgia these days but I would guess it's because
>western game nostalgia
>here's a $20+ skin or entire expansion dedicated to it
>japanese nostlagia
>here's an entire game, small DLC, or reference in an expansion

Western game studios are run like western movie/tv studios.

They'll be halfway through development and then they'll have a some nepobaby faggot give their input and/or have a focus group full of people from "untapped markets" give their opinions. Then they'll try to shove in shit and change things for the worse.

Because Otakus are hypocrites obviously. Just look at how far these retards will go to claim that you're racist for talking about how lazy nips are>>722833715

For example they still can't even make competent PC ports in this day and age. Just took a look at anything put out by Team Ninja or Koei Tecmo and it goes on to rival some of the worst known western studios to have 'graced' this industry like Iron Galaxy. They code their games like subhuman apes, and yet we'll have an apologist like I just highlighted that will often defend the indefensible. Or say something like 'PC is shit' because those crooked nips think they can get away with their poor business practices. If we all agree that the chinks suck, we should be honest about the japs too.

Whiteness is an idea. A jap that is respectful, intelligent and patriotic is more white than trailer park white trash that acts like niggers

The LDP shifted to the right and they got a new PM solely due to Sanseito. It won't be long before they reverse course on importing pajeets and africans.

Well, the japanese are basically all manchildren/womanchildren until they hit their 80s, so that checks out.

goomba fallacy
also a lot of japanese studios implement reused assets and nostalgia way better than western companies. Im not saying it isn't also shameless but it at least isn't as terrible as the west. Also no one likes buggy launches. It is just that buggy launches are a launch problem and everyone forgets about it/don't give a shit within a week.
>>
When westoids reuse shit, they double down on laziness and forgot how to run the game. Their devs' attitudes don't help either as they're more ego centric and find that they did no wrong costing them financial ruin.
>>
>>722832270
I haven't had a Japanese dev call me a racist misogynist nazi for not buying their game
