The important thing is people who love what they do will make good products. AAA is full of fags just taking paychecks. Smaller western dev teams or single devs can put together passion projects.

>>735124015
No, but at least the US/West has a thriving indie scene making interesting games, indie scene is almost nonexistent in Japan.
>>
>>735123869
no, however they have a stronger tendency to attempt to appeal to players even if individually on average they are of equivalent or lower quality
a low-quality game that respects the player is often received more favorably than a higher-quality game that hates its own prospective playerbase

Given how blacked Japanese games are these days I imagine the joke is now the protagonist "falling" on butt, getting brapped in the face, sniffing it and then sounding out an entire monologue about how he's afraid she thinks he's into that
Then she'll punch him really really hard, have pupil-less angry eyes, a vein popping emoji will be on her now blue shaded forehead, and her mouth will go BWAHBWAHBWAH with angry shark teeth, ranting about how he's embarrassed her and her clan, and he'll have spinny confusion eyes with a dumb smile on his face

Transvestite literally means crossdresser. It's a direct one to one translation into Latin. But transsexuals and transvestites are not the same. That is the incorrect and intentionally dishonest conflation that anon was making.

In some ways yes, in some ways no.
I'll give credit to games made in Asia, since there's so damn many being made in countries that aren't Japan and are actually good, Asian games are very colorful, and rather whimsical in some of its design choices.
Western games tend to be more rooted in realism, because what we think is good are things that have deep lore, things that have history, and yes, a sense of real life attachment to make things within these worlds of creation, more believable and therefore more immersive.
Asian games throw that shit out the window. Everything is colorful, people are friendly, there's a clear divide between good and evil, everyone that matters is young and beautiful. They can jump 50 feet in the air and make a crater in the ground when they land. They slash a sword 100 times a second, and the enemy doesn't die until a poignant one liner is spoken by the protagonist. Particle effects out your asshole because no other reason than "it looks cool".
Are they superior? Fuckin' hell dude, it really depends on what you want in a game.
Personally, I think Asian games appeal to people who are frustrated in life and just want some goofy bright colors to flash on the screen. Western games appeal to people who are bored in life and want to experience a reality that is more interesting than the one they live in. I could be wrong though.

Instead of trying to argue you can be gay without being a faggot, you decided to argue that being a fag isn't the same as being a faggot
It's the same word
It has the same trans history

I mean, when you ended your argument with "I want underage boys to suck my cock", and are very fixated on calling it crossdressing over trannievestiting, you clearly cannot appreciate the humor of something naturally repulsive, so your point that it's funny is not what you like about it, you like it because it's your fetish... do I need to point out the faggotry on display here or that the webm in question isn't humorous and is from an island country that sexualizes everything in extremely autistic ways from sweat to piss?

I didn't. There is more than one other person in this thread.
You are simply wrong in trying to claim that people who crossdress but do not believe they are or should be the opposite sex and and make no attempt to alter their bodies are the same as people who chop their dicks off and insist that everyone call them "ma'am". If you refuse to acknowledge even this obvious truth, then you're as delusional as a tranny and your opinions are as worthless as theirs.

Meh, not particularly. There's actually quite a few genres, namely anything PC-centric (RTS, FPS, etc.), that Japanners never were really able to produce a good game for, let alone one that dominates anything from the West. Weebs also really don't give two shits about looking into western games at all, so ironically there's a lot of genres they heavily associate with Japan, whereas Japanners themselves were initially inspired by some high quality Western series, whose quality is still highly competitive.

I don't think it matters much either way THOUGH, as there's been so much give and take between America and Japan culturally in the decades after WW2 Reconstruction that trying to draw a line dividing the two is moot.

It depends. There are some genres where Japan is pretty dominant, and others where they're generally pretty weak. I think a majority of the best games of all time are western, but Japan is generally producing more good games, especially outside of the indie scene.

they're all called doujin games 同人ゲーム
indie game インディーゲーム has a different specific meaning in japan and refers to doujin games that are designed for profit rather than for hobby and its usage is rather new and still mostly applied to foreign indies. japan also uses "free game" フリーゲーム for indie games that are distributed as freeware, often not using the doujin term with these as the free games are usually not distributed at doujin events.
porn games are usually not considered doujin games unless they happen to be parodies of some other ip, japan usually refers to their porn games as eroge more often than as doujin games.

Little elf always screaming something in japaenese mid combat
>NO STOHL IS LOW HEALTH SOMEBODY SHOULD HEAL HIM
Repeats this every single turn every single time somebody is hurt or low on health. You could think watching me play this that im watching a some obscure jap porn

Eupha, one of the playable characters, is the walking "I was a shy girl but now i will travel the world with my nakamas" trope

>NO I CANT LEAVE THE ISLAND
>I...I MUST FULFILL MY DUTY
>Epis battle ensues
>IM NOT THE SMALL GIRL ANYMORE
Cmon japs make this better

"You must talk with your nakamas to understand them better" ploy
Oh boy do i love to read through douzens of text messages about mundane shit like "How do i sharpen my sword" and "Look my childhood friend is now a rtacist" bullshit
I played Claire Obscure and this was handled a) better and b) more realitsicly than this bullshit im forced to endure

It seems like chuds just don't seem to be able to appreciate anything that isn't already an approved classic. Nothing obscure, nothing even really new, just shit everyone else agrees to like is good and that's about it. That is why I find conservatism to be nihilistic since there is nothing but shit that has already been there, but life is inherently chaotic even if it is also reasoned and steeped in materialism.
