But what about piracy and data mining? Why did George suddenly turn his attention to PC?
>>740994026>13 sentinelswhy would I want to buy a shitty translation?
>>740994026UP TO THE PUBLISHER? SEGA? WHAT
>>740994026Maybe he realised spending all of your money and coming close to bankruptcy for every game isn't sustainable.
>>740994026MAYBE GO TO CAPCOM TO PUBLISH DRAGON'S CROWN SINCE THEY PORTED THE MYSTARA GAMES TO PC, THE GAMES YOU DIRECTED.
>>740994116A PC port would mean a translation mod.
>>740994026>up to the publisher>when they literally made "don't port this to PC" a part of their contract with atlus when making unicorn overlordyeah okay
>>740994026lying bitch, why would sega/atlus not want to port your game to pc when even fucking persona gets ported to pc nowadays
>>740994026I remember what you are saying. He really did a weird 180° on the games on PC thing. I wonder what happened.
>>740994596Studio coming close to death one time too many, and maybe one of his friends (possibly Yoko Taro) in JP scene told him that PC versions of the games get consistent sales through the years, even if console sales stop coming in.
>>740994730Probably more like it was one of his employees (Shigatake) after releasing Devil Blade Reboot: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2882440/DEVIL_BLADE_REBOOT/
>>740994896Also possible. The point is that bunch of devs and publishers have said that while the initial PC sales might not be as high as console ones, PC ports keep selling copies through the years as the games go on sale and people randomly pick them up.
>>740994026>Puppet animation is TOP secret NIHONJIN Technology!!!holy fuck they are retarded.She should keep aping old games.
>>740994026Who is the fuck is this though? Anyone could post signed merch and say whatever the hell they want.
>>740995185
>>740994431Let's just say some binaries work on PC, and others don't.
>>740994026if you like twitter so much why don't you live there
>>740995665Uhm, acshually that's Bluesky!
>>740995468In switch and pc4 versions, text can be easily replaced; do it yourself if you want.
>>740994026wow this art is awful
>>740996271>pc4Already have pc5 next gen, sorry anon.
>>740994342he asked capcom to publish dragons crown when it first came out and they said no
>>740997269You can run ps4 dumps, this is not a problem if your console is hacked.
>>740997460I know, I know...It was a joke anon.
>>740994507Funnily enough, I am playing UO on my PC right now. Yar Har me maties! Every Game Is A PC Game - Eventually.
Blaming piracy is a cope, it has never affected sales.
>>740994026probably got told only on pc can you play with naked mods, money is always a motivator but a man's heart and dick are stronger than their greed
>>740994026His colleagues convinced him. He's the kind of person that data cant really shake, but if it came from a trusted person he probably would, and he did
>>740994026It was 4D chess. They were waiting for the right time to start releasing on PC. With the industry burning down all around them and having no plan, they themselves now have a truckload of games they can slowly start releasing on PC one by one and each one will sell like a new game because they built their reputation on "never supporting PC" and now the impossible is happening.They were basically waiting with the ports being a rainy day fund.
>>740994026>uudelleenjulkaisua>Kaikki voivat vaistataPeople were making fun of dutch in another thread I saw this morning, but Finnish somehow looks even more ridiculous. This cannot be a real language
>>740994026This is extremely good news but please who is this guy saying that?
>>740994507>>740994586This same nigga is saying that Atlus begging Vanillaware to port Unicorn Overlord to PC are wrong
>>741002683Some random on bluesky. Thats it lol.
>>740994026>buy my game so I will let you buy more of my gamesNot how that works, you fucking fund the port if you are confident that it will sell and if it does you do it again.Might as well ask me to pay for your dev costs so you can sell your shit to me.
>>740994026Don't go it George! Your delicious steak will be unceremoniously swallowed in a single bite!
>>741003280In his twitter he says he's the founder of BitSummit, so definitely not a rando
>>740994896Based Shigatake.>Helped Keizo with Astlibra Revision>Helped PC gets Vanillaware gamesMy FWARKING hero.
>>740994116Japan proved they're a major player in the video game industry decades agosurely you can read some Japanese after all this time?
>>740997675>Every Game Is A PC Game - Eventually.yeah uuuuh, good fucking luck with Switch 2 games on PC buddy. Gooood luck.
I don't know about which if any of the details are accurate, but lets hope that for whatever reason Kamitani is now willing to port things>>740995074Even many JP devs have figured this out - Kojima, the RGG guys, Sega, Capcom, TecmoKoei , SquareEnix, BandaiNamco, etc. RGG going from thinking there was no market for Yakuza on PC, to it being the primary platform practically overnight, or how Sega dragged Atlus kicking and screaming into PC releases only for them to do very well if they're tardwrangled into a good port and priced right without any stupid bullshit Vanillaware will basically print money if they port things to PC, release them on Steam, uncensored, with JP audio, technically update/remaster, and ideally expand/add new content (the Dragon's Crown expansion stuff from the artbook that they had to cut because they ran out of time/money originally , Unicorn Overlord DLC etc. ) There's almost no way they can fail if they don't shoot themselves in the foot
>>741004014Emulation?
>>741003207It was from an interview right? Where the Sega or Atlus guy literally said >we wanted to port this to PC but Vanillaware said don't so we decided to honor their wishes
>>740995238new game never ever
>>740994586Kamitani is broke now and that can change a man's opinion pretty easily.
>>740994026>GeorgeWhat kind of Japanese guy is called George?
>>741006817Maybe his parents were westaboos
What the fuck is there left to datamine from Muramasa? the wii version came out in 2009
>>740994026so why did his parent name him George?
>>741007794His actual name is Jouji which is close enough
Wheres my Astlibra 2?
>>740999790i doubt it. ports still sell best when they're either at the same time or very quickly after a console version. so if that was their "plan" then they're even more retarded than imaginable
>>740994026I want that one nigga anon to come here and apologize after being so adamant that this was a one time thing because Marvelous forced the studio to make a PC port too.Now we just need to call upon Sega and Atlus to port the other games.
Japan's been all-in on PC lately
UO nude mods....bros....
>>740994026>>741008093yeah it seems obvious now, that anon thought the issue was that marvelous really wanted a PC port and wouldn't make the port without it and George was struggling accept it.In reality it was some rights issue most likely between the publishers, the fact that Arkys, who published Muramasa Rebirth, is missing and its only Marvelous that is publishing it.
>>741005581https://www.destructoid.com/unicorn-overlord-devs-talk-history-card-games-and-that-delicious-food/This interview specifically, yeah. This is basically a he said she said situation until we get a new interview with Vanillaware regarding Muramasa and someone inevitably asks about their current stance on PC gaming now.
>>741008332I can't wait for the incest mods.MY MOM OWES ME SEX AND BABIES IN UNICORN OVERLORD
>>740994026>Why did George suddenly turn his attention to PC?Money, dinero, biruta
>>741003207>>741005581>>741008713Niggershttps://nichegamer.com/vanillaware-is-exploring-a-solution-to-bring-their-games-to-pc/
>>740994026Had to happen.
>>741010669Wow... it only took 12 years to find a solution... suge Vanillware...sugeee desu ne
>>740999790>release games on consoles only with hype>sells well but barely keeping afloat>all your PC fans resort to emulationwe are here>re-release PC ports of your game>sells worse because all of your PC fans have already played the game>"FUCK PC PLAYERS, FUCK GUIJIN, NEVER AGAIN">either vanilliaware PC on launch for next game or back to old ways 50/50
