Why the fuck would Korea have more "development scale and capital" than Japan??????
>>730914221Because koreans dump thousands of dollars into MMO microtransactions thinking they're investors.
>>730914221>individuality and creative spirit>Falcomthe studio that keeps releasing the same game over and over?
>>730914221it means in slaves and government money
>>730914221Responsobirity. Time to shitop puraying gamusu. More deveroped nashion? More imporutanto woroku.
>>730914221Because both China and Korea are chasing the "cultural export soft power" dream so their vidya devs are getting cash from the government.
>>730914221Falcom can't compete with anyone. They are still releasing sixth gen games in HD.
>>730914221Because Japan is an already established market with little growth potential while China and Korea both have more room to grow and that means there's not only more room for growth but also it's cheaper giving higher returns
>>730914221>development scale and capitalThis is about access to investment money. Falcom can't compete on a size basis with the Chaebols and Tencent.
>>730914221Korea is literally the IRL cyberpunk setting where massive corporations (chaebols) rule everything and they have immense power and infinite money. You've never heard of Nexon or Krafton or NCSoft?
>>730914221>individuality and creative spiritmaybe 10 years ago
>>730914221korea have stronger paypigs.Their MMO culture and subsequently mobile game culture centers around P2W because their IRL society encourages it.
>>730914221Random Asian gachashit absolutely mog Falcom's games in quality and popularity.
>>730914221>individuality and creative spirit>outsourced writing>outsourced asset creationlol
>>730914221Korea saves money on developing concepts by just stealing from China and Japan.
>>730916715I dont know about developing but korean publishers have their hands on a TON of big games, just most people dont care about since theyre mmos or mobile games. Those big monies that Ark Raiders is earning? That's going to Nexon. Japanese corpos want a slice of that pie too which explains why capcom and square enix act the way they do.
>>730914221Yet Japan in this decade has been releasing censored slop, letting troonslators ruin their stories, making inclusive shit instead, banning loli, etc, Japan is doomed
>>730914221what is automation-media and why do i see them linked all over the place suddenlyfeels really inorganic
>>730916828Meant for OP sorry.
>>730916860They always turn a single paragraph interview into 100 articles rephrased and reworded, and Falcom shills spam them on /v/.
>>730916893they're being posted an odd amount on r/games as well (please ignore the fact that I know this) and OPs screenshot is from twitter
>>730914221Funny because I just read an article where a Korean dev says they can't compete with Japan. All these claims are excuses for one thing: using AI to dev.
>>730914221>anon learns what propaganda iswere you born yesterday?
>>730914221Japanese AAA games have less budget than big budget indiesBamco is particularly guilty of underbudgeting. They make billions of dollars yet vehemently refuse to spend a single dime on their shounen jump games.
>>730916939Same people.
>>730916943It is. Everyone else is saying the same thing to seem like underdogs but board rooms everywhere are saying the same thing. They want to us AI to pay less people
>>730916970Licensed anime games are almost always cheaply made because there's no point in making something nice, people will buy them on the brand power alone. Same as Pokemon basically.
>>730914221The Korean government funds specific companies to push them ahead, samsung, hyundai, LG ect. They are a unique form of capitalism. But Absolutely destroyed any competition, including some in japan.
>>730914221>you know I had to do it to 'em, white boi
>>730916860Its one of the few gaming news websites that focuses on Japanese games without a culture war angle. Its not super surprising its rising in popularity.
He's completely right though.
>>730916867 Based though, everything OP said was just a copium cocktail. Japanese devs resting on laurels while KR/CH studios are outputting content by the gigaton-doesn’t matter if it’s shovelware, it’s dominating charts and playerbases worldwide. Welcome to the cybergrind baby, soul doesn’t pay the bills.
>>730914221Calling falcom a japanese studio like they're the representation of all japanese studios is weird af when they're so small they might as well be indie.
>>730914221they saved up enough money from being hired to animate their cartoons since the 60s
>>730914221It's because chinks and gooks have been using AI for everything for a while now, meanwhile the japs are still learning. People don't hate AI, they just hate it when they can tell it's AI.
>>730914221this nigger puts out the exact same slop jrpg over and over and over and over and over and talks about creative spirit lmao
Because Samsung and LG are bigger than Sony and Panasonic
>>730914221>Falcom>creative spiritlollmao
>>730920023>People don't hate AI, they just hate it when they can tell it's AI.Tankies hate AI all the same.
>>730914221Japan is a 3rd world country, anon.
>>730914221>Unc still thinks Japan is rich and creative and techinically skilled>Unc still thinks China and Korea are backwater shitholes that make $0 from games and have no technical knowledgeLol it's so easy to spot the uneducated 30+ losers here
>>730914221>Actually bad at programming, which is why they use the same engines for 20 years.>Absolute bottom of the barrel in terms of innovation other than cheap gimmicks made to sell plastic peripherals.>Their consumer base is interested in maybe 4 genres in total, everything else sells like shit.>Their only storytelling tricks are: ripping off Western media; using Japanese folklore; misery porn; endless sequels and spin-offs... that's it.>One of the most expensive places on Earth to run a business in, yet Japanese studios still refuse to move outside Japan.>Their work ethics mean that mindless crunch, subservience to the superior and keeping your head down are valued; developers who leave and strike at their own are frowned upon.
>create amazing games>let shitty trannylators ruin them so no one will ever knowsasuga
>>730923048Kondo is a cool dude though.
>>730914221they make shitty MMOs and mobile gamesthe market doesn't care about quality
japanese dont have skilled or passionate peeople going into a vidya anymore, its all old heads who are now out of touch; especially since jap publishers are pseudo-jews and REFUSE to give anything more than scraps for a budgetthe average nip aspires to slave away as salarymen for stability
>>730914221>Creative spirit >Posts a remakeWtf did they mean by this?
>>730914221Because gooks and chinks aims for the global market, investment for the project is going to be big as the return is expected to be big as well.Japs can self-sustain itself with entertainment, they don't aim for global scale first so the investment is going to be small as well, localising for global audience is always an after-thought >Why don't they aim for global market to compete with the west, chinks and gooksSome are opening up to that idea (like Capcom), but they've been self-sustaining itself since the 80's so why bother. It's better to continue doing something you are doing good at than bending yourself over for the western market.
>>730916460>korea have stronger paypigs.?
>>730914221just look how fast korea churns out manhwa compared to japanese manga, they have that shit streamlined to a T
>>730914221>>730914557Used to apply, once upon a time, but yeah.Why is anyone comparing falcom to ascendant chinese and korean companies anyway? Who's the dumb asshole who unironically went "you know what company represents the power and resources of japanese gaming industry best? Falcom."
>>730923782It's almost like westoid (((press))) has an antijapan agenda and happily misrepresent the current state of affairs or something.
>>730920023i would not be surprised if the Japanese use AI too.Anyway personally I believe a lot of this shit is due to the oldguard of Japanese companies.
>>730915081If that was true they would be the best game company on the market.
>>730923885Good point. I didn't give a shit before, but now I'm curious who this "automation" site is actually employing.
>>730923251Whats even worse is that the few good trailblazer devs are either washed up, got kicked out of their own companies or dead while the younger generation doesn't really want to to lead. Miyazaki os literally carrying the entire industry on his own and even he's grooming newer directors to replace him.
China captured the meme audience while korea captured the gooner audience. Unironically japan still has the true gamer audience but we all know gamers are a minority in their own hobby.
>>730914221>asset flip the same Kiseki or Ys game every year or two>"""""individuality""""" and """""creative spirit"""""Falcom's games are literally the cowadoody of Japanese gaming industry
>>730923529least retarded gacha tranny
>chink has huge domestic market to sustain them with little to no distraction and barrier + a single platform to focus on (mobile)>gook has huge government incentive for years from the time of internet cafe to develop games + a single platform to focus on (PC from the time of mmorpg)>the japs? Domestic market not large enough to sustain high budget gaming, and dev is further divided by various platforms (2 consoles, PC and mobile)
>>730923529Where do you think the gooks are playing dumb fuck.
Haha... that's our Falcom!
>>730914221Chinese and Koreans are mindless drone people. They can work for 16 hours plus a day peddling shit out. The Japanese have the hyperborean spirit in them, they can create great things like some of the best vidya in history
What's made Chinese and Koreans lack of creativity like Japan?
>>730914221>Shift Up Korea>Can't compete with China and Japan which is why they're going to use AI to compete>Falcom Japan>Can't compete with China and Korea which is why they're going to use individuality and creative spirit>China>????So when's Chinks turn to say this kind of similar statement?
>>730926576Mihoyo already said the same thing years ago.
>>730923782>>730923885What kind of conspiracy schizo shit are you on? They're relaying the words of a Japanese CEO from a Japanese interview. They didn't invent this comparison to make japan look bad, the CEO brought it up himself
>>730914557Hey now... they have two games, Ys and Trails.New Dragon Slayer never ever
>>730928917Uhm excuse me, how did you forget the famed video game series Xanadu?
>>730916330They're still in the lead. 100 years could pass with Japan being frozen in time and China's population could increase to 50 billion and Japan would still have it else beat. Every non-Japanese creativity endeavor is simply "copy Japan".Sadly you'd need a massive cultural revolution for the Western world to compete ever again, like the patron system returning somehow. (no not Patreon)
>>730928968>could increase to 50 billion and Japan would still have it else beat. Every non-Japanese creativity endeavor is simply "copy Japan".Fuck. I need sleep. "Japan would still have it beat". "Non-Japanese creative endeavor"
>>730914221Koreans work like slaves.
>>730926191it isn't the 90s anymore, japan isn't for gamers anymore either
>>730916259t. retard who doesn't know shit about korea
