>>738931967Well if Kadokawa were smart they would be demanding fromsoft put difficulty levels in their games to double their sales so can't blame anybody for wanting a change in management
>if Kadokawa were smart
Does anyone have the original Oasis proposal?
>>738932170spirit summons are already a thing.
>make a variety of franchises that appeal to specific niches>HOW DARE YOU! MILK THE SAME 5 THINGS FOREVERFor fucks sake this can only end in disaster
>goodwill impairment at doga koboI guess I'll just blame Kadokawa for the lack of more Love Lab, it was one of the only good things that yurishit studio had ever made.
>>738933753unironically blame the western market, japan was happy to have a bunch of mid tier companies that just operated on a minor profit margin consistently turning over niche games that the devs were actually passionate about but now that they've realized they can make so much more by pandering to western money that culture is going to start to fade away
>>738933869They didn't even buy doga kobo until 2024 and calling them a yuri studio is a huge stretch they vast majority of their output is just low stakes SoL non yuri romances
>>738933753>specific nichesNope, just isekai slop.
>>738933939I don’t know how Fromsoftware and Spike Chunsoft could be more mainstream than without compromising their identity. Make a soulslike with live service and AI elements? Turn Spike into a DBZ game factory at the mercy of Bandai? Mainstreaming Danganronpa and Mystery Dungeon?
>>738931967>mad about the incest in Oshi no KoChina can fuck off.
>>738931967>quantity over qualityAs >>738933753 suggests, all this means in corpo speak is those fuckers want to close EVERYTHING small, make big inflated AAAAAAAA products that cost 1 gorillion dollars that live on hype, watch them fail, then buy them for pennies or leave.DONT FALL FOR SHAREHOLDERS TRICKS, THEY ARE LEECHES WHO WOULD LEAVE YOU AT A MOMENTS NOTICE.
>>738935010Yeah, it's all "stop letting any of your businesses spend money and only produce minimally financed slop".
>>738935010>>738933753It says Kadokawa CURRENTLY does "quantity over quality" but then immediately after says it should leverage owning Elden Ring and FROM more aka churn out spinoffs and quantity dogshit.
>>738935439Nope, you retard. That activist group wants FromSoftware to self-publish world wide ASAP and they are right.
>>738934709*incestbait
>>738931967Uh, those grievances sound fair? Sure, it being from a Chinese subversive is valid but doesn't change what was said.
>>738933753Got to pump those numbers up, those are rookie numbers for those professional jerk-offs at investment firms.
>>738934591I think you're just missing their point, they're praising elden ring and saying that kadokawa isn't using it to it's full potential aka either a constant yearly churn of soulslop or just infesting it with microtransactions is what they want, if you follow the other events leading up to this the company that's trying to take over is the one that essentially convinced nintendo to release pokemon go and their other mobile apps in the first place, they have a pretty wide investment portfolio but it's obvious they want more mobile game revenue coming in
>>738935974They should hire Jonathan Blow to make Elden Ring 2 after he's done with his game. That would be kino.
>>738935974Use a period for fucks sake
>>738936109so true updooted thank you for correcting this misuse of language fellow redditor
>>738935691That's because you can't parse corpo speak. As others already explained they are saying they should shutter all the smaller businesses and milk large IPs by pumping out slop. While at the same time not giving bigger budgets to non-slop projects.
>>738935691>>738936241Not really, look I'm not saying Oasis are saints, they're there for the profit. But they're not just a company that tries to raise stock value for the sake of it, they're looking to raise actual profits as in dividend shares to actionists and not some pump and dump schemeThey explicitly cite lack of hit titles and quantity over quality approach as concerns, and while people criticised them for the letter to Nintendo they were right that Nintendo should've entered the mobile market to make more profitKadokawa is not in top shape, even Japanese otakus complain about it and the current CEO, so I think we should wait and see
>>738937716They certainly look like a company that would push a pump and dump scheme.
>>738935691You could come up with a similar list of problems for any major corporate group, doesn't mean that the hedge fund looking for a quick profit would help anything.
>>738937716They invested in a Japanese chemical company just to push them to sell off their decades old art collection for their benefit.
>>738932309>you now remember that an /a/ post that said "tell kim to aim at kadokawa" became a rallying cry for the japs to state just how much they hate kadokawa for this shit
>>738938778LMAO, LOL EVENRead until the end.
>>738938778>nooo, don't buy things which increase in valuePeople these days should have to be afraid of tarring and feathering still.
>>738931967this company was literally nothing before Elden Rangz
>>738933939That's because of deflation, the magic word all Jews hate. Deflation means every dollar earned is worth more the next year.
>>738939254Why are white people like this?
>>738931967good morning i hate the jews
>>738939254(((Every fucking time)))
>>738931967if they touch fromsoft i will bo full unabomber on their asses
>>738933939We need to start fucking killing CEOs or shareholders left and right.
>>738939254I didn't even need to see this to know.Every. Single. Fucking. Time.
>>738939254The Tengu are up to their old shit again>captcha is a jewish star again
>>738931967then why did they sell out in the first place?
>>738940121They're a publicly traded company
>>738939254fucking jews
Search for "oasiscm".It's over, Fromsoftware is 70% owned by turbo Jews literally from the IDF, liberal DEI/ESG Jews and gender parity for CEOs Jewesses. You know that there are no recovery from that except using expulsion, which Japaneses are too CHICKEN to do. It's owari da.
>>738939254Based, I don't even give a fuck about the anime Kadokawa manages anymore, which is what I thought this was primarily about. But it was so obvious these crypto kikes just want to bleed the lifeblood out of them, including FROM, for as many shekels as soon as possible.
>>738939254
>>738935010I assumed that the quantity over quality bit was in reference to all the narou isekai garbage that Kadokawa churns out
>>738938016>>738938778>>738939254>>738941690>Who can it be nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bX53Gx9gG9Q
IIRC Kadokawa is the reason Nichijou failed
>>738931967>Oasis Japan Strategic Fund >Owned by Hong Kong hedge fundWhy is it call Japan when it's based in China?
>>738942960They mostly target Japanese companies
>>738942618Yes, but they also have a penchant for selling ancillary non core businesses so we'll have to see what their next demands will beMostly they're upset Kadokawa isn't producing as many hits despite more titles getting published, also their anime division is losing money
>>738932309I have never forgotten
>>738939254SHUT IT DOWN!
Chief Officer of Oasis Management discussing the take-over by a French LEAF of Japanese konbinis his firm own shares of and the closing of an art gallery of a company his firm has taken-over.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2024-09-12/oasis-management-cio-fischer-on-seven-i-dic-video
>>738939254Oh Jesus fucking Christ.
Okada bros how do we feel about this
>>738939254Oh come the fuck on.
>>738946069Semi erect.
>>738935691>Chinese Haha, if only
>>738931967Is this the same Chinese douchbag who bought all those Square Enix shares last year?

>>738931967i don't know or care about anything produced by this company but anything that pisses off (((shareholders))) will always be the best possible path to take without exception
>>738947362This is a fact. They can all wait for me in Hell.
>>738934591AI was used in the creation of Elden ring nightreign btw.
>>738931967Doesn't Japan work culture make it impossible to remove people from positions of power excluding retirement/death?
>>738949739I am guessing that there isn't any real power to push him out here unless other shareholders are pissed at him, but you can create pressure along the lines of "there are all these problems where Kadokawa is ignoring shareholders" and use that to pressure Kadokawa to try to push some short term gains (likely at the expense of the long term business.)
>>738939254Why are they like this?
>>738932170rot's already a thing, what you would really mean if you actually played fromsoft games is removing invaders and giving 4 phantoms by default with enemies no longer scaling up to how many players you have.
>>738947343>45 minute meeting instead of the usual 60 after two months' waitI imagine this is a jap practice for subtly telling someone to fuck off.
>>738931967>reeeeeeee stop making games i don't like and make more slop souls!!!!
>>738931967>fuck you>buyback their stockproblem solved
>>738931967>isekai companywhy do we care
>>738936231Refusing to use punctuation is a symptom of schizophrenia

>>738939254It's always them It's not even funny anymore
>>738946069Asia's plastic surgery culture makes their women completely unappealing.
So which is more evil, Kadokawa or Harmony Gold?
>>738931967>>738932170Kadokawa also had the exec that was literally crying about Azur Lane's success over Kancolle(kadokawa property) by saying shit like how if only people understood the glorious story of the IJN, they would see Kancolle was better.Like dude, shut the fuck up. AL's got tits and cunny. You've got mid HS girls with bland design. Of course AL's whipping your ass.
>>738956230HG easily.
>>738939684>Why are white people like this?>jews>whiteliterally two different, completely unrelated haplogroups
>>738956247Kancolle sucked the IJN way too much, and marketing IJN wank to the massive China, Korea, and the US markets is a no-go. It was also JP only.
>>738931967>quantity over qualityAKA, please act like American companies and centralize all your development resources in one >$300 million game so that when it flops vulture capital can immediately swoop in and scrap the company for parts
>>738935691>>738937716Oasis is the investment company that said Nintendo should make pay2win Mario games for the iPhone. >https://www.polygon.com/2014/2/26/5450938/shareholder-urges-nintendo-to-develop-for-mobile-platforms/>"We believe Nintendo can create very profitable games based on in-game revenue models with the right development team," Fischer said. "Just think of paying 99 cents just to get Mario to jump a little higher."
>>738947362yea I don't care about From, but I hope the jews don't get their way and the noticing continues.
>>738956247what do you mean, KanColle had Shimakaze
>>738958041The audacity of addressing Iwata with that drivel, he should have been mailed a hara-kiri sword as a response, or a chicken and told to try to transfer your shame to that with your Talmudic magic.
Get china and blackrock the fuck away from vidya.
>>738956247Based execs believing in their own title.
>>738955569Japs don't really go that heavy, they do filter maxx though
