Why are people calling namco like this
>>736837105Go check the prices of Digimon Story Time Stranger and its DLC.
>>736837204I played the game for free at my local library. So... 0.
they won't release gundamexvs on pc
>hires the cheapest indian sweatshop to make the same generic arena fighters of the most beloved anime IPs>has ruined tekken beyond salvation>killed SC6 early by moving its whole budget to the tekken division >basically lives off whatever fromsoft shits out now>killed ridge racer >loads and heaps of DLC for whatever game they release>shadow patched an ingame store in tekken, fooling all rating boards
>>736837105Bandai Namco solely exists to generate money to create new Gundam anime and gunpla
>>736837829>new Gundam anime and gunpla>still no hathaway or bandit flower sequelim so tired of constant au modern audience slop
>>736837105Ive been saying it ever since they released Prepare to Die Edition of Dark Souls on steam. Most half arsed port that needed DSFIX to actually make it scale to your resolution or unlock the 30 fps cap to play it at 60 fps. Bandai Scamco literally hired a lawyer to file a DMCA claim to get DSFix 2.3 taken down. Anything but actually fixing it themselves of course.
>>736837105>release new digimon game>shoehorn $70 base price>$30 season pass for 3 short DLC episodes>on top of that, costume packs with extra missions and song packs>pre-order bonus content (only saving grace is they let you get it (separately) outside the release window)>ultimate edition at $120 (price of 2 games) doesn't contain everything>you can't upgrade to another edition later down the line>paid grind skip cheats (thankfully not mandatory since they took the hint and didn't make the base game stupidly grindy like in the PS1 days)>in spite of all that, the game is still unfinished (boatload of side-quests shoved at the end)>slap denuvo on itunderstand now?
And despite claims you may of heard about Bandai Namco backing off eventually from the original claim. What i do remember is that they struck DSFIX again in 2015, aside from their initial strike in 2014.I'm fairly certain dsfix actually optimized the games performance too aside from uncapping it. So yeah it was scummy shit and they want to forget that version exists with the remaster and its all water under the bridge. Although I'm sure some people still prefer PTDE over the remaster.
>>736837105Because they fucking shut down MSGO without giving us a replacement, the fucking rats
>>736837105>no commercials at all in the US, when kid's eyes would have been all over Saturday morning cartoons>print ads were ass for the first game>ads for games afterwards weren't pushed more>make a sequel for the Wonder Swan>make a sports spinoff, never comes stateside>make an RPG, never comes stateside>webcomic canceled when it was getting good>release remasters of DtP and LV>no word on follow upIt hurts man.
>>736839567>wonderswandigimon lost its footing thanks to it>none of its games came to the GBA, which led to a massive hiatus stateside during the 02~frontier years, aside from the grindy digimon world 4 and rumble arena 2>doesn't help that card game overseas was fatally crippled by upper deck entertainment (fundamental rule changes for no reason). bandai took over after booster 2, but never undid the damage and the ensuing hiatus killed its momentum>worst of all, frontier was panned everywhere. long hiatus until savers, which also suffered from the american dub being used as the base for other dubs. and things only got worse (xros)>game branding fuckups overseas dissuaded fans (just ship completely different games under the digimon world subtitle, what could possibly go wrong?)>digimon adventure game and re:digitize (and later decode), the games fans were craving for, inexplicably kept locked to japan>it took a petition and worldwide fan outcry to make them start getting their shit together>instead of releasing the games everyone asked for, develop mediocre shovelware (all-star rumble) and skip themat least we got cyber sleuth out of that, which kickstarted the franchise's resurgence
>>736839963You hit the nail on the head, some really odd choices during those times. Was there ever a change in CEOs or whatever?
>>736837487THIS FUCKING THIS.
>>736837487Funds all went into the "gundam metaverse"
>>736840361it is believed that the wonderswan's failure to take off was in large part due to gunpei yokoi's untimely parting. some fans believe his passing wasn't due to an accident, and that it was instead a nintendo yakuza job given the highly unusual circumstances surrounding the accident
>>736837105Idk, they've been releasing some slop, but nothing too egregious really.
>>736837105these niggas been selling paid level up DLCs since tales of vesperianobody here remembers since the current userbase has been replaced by brown zoomers
>>736837105they put code vein through a meatgrinder and tried to feed people its remains as code vein 2 no doubt causing mad cow disease.
>>736837105they put denuvo on god eater 1 and 2 pc because they knew those games were popular. yet didn't bother giving them the latest japan only patches and left the 30 fps npc ai bug unfixed probably because of fucking denuvo shenanigans and left it to chinese fans to DISASEMBLE the entire game to fix it. and then realized god eater 3 was such a shitshow after handing it to marvelous to cut costs that they didn't bother putting denuvo on it. and then after giving *some* recognition by selling 3 overpriced season pass updates in code vein, they gutted god eater entirely out of code vein 2 to insult the fans and put two god eater characters as GACHA characters in a gazer because they haven't monetized and pachinkoed the series enough. fuck scamco, they built a mountain of supporters only to tear it apart and offer nothing that isn't a scam in return.
