How do you make big business care about the customer? That's right, you can't. Big business becomes big because it knows how to grow without caring about the customer. It can't grow forever of course, but it doesn't matter for people currently reaping the benefits, as they will likely jump the ship long before the time of dealing with consequences of their actions.Nobody in gaming business is interested in making games, and it's like that in every business.

Total ban of dev employees and contractors stirring up shit on social media while tied to a company or project. Instant firing and denouncement when it happens. This shit is sales poison, it can't be allowed at all.3. Higher-ups must be held accountable. If you're promoted to a lead position and you blow it, you go back down to rank-and-file or leave the company, and someone else gets the job.4. Make transparent plans and stick to them, both internally and with customers. No Anthem-style fuckery where your leads piss around for years idea-guying bullshit that goes nowhere, and no DICE-style fuckery where you constantly miss roadmap deadlines and then just delete the roadmap and go radio silent when player criticize you for it.5. Stop trying to force players to accept shit they don't want. If you know something will piss people off or turn them away, don't do it. (I know this sounds like a no-shit-Sherlock point, but they just keep doing it.)6. Stop uglifying women. This is possibly the dumbest recurring own-goal. People don't cough up money to look at bland, average, and aging people, let alone the outright deformed. And no, women do not want it, either.7. Stop listening to agenda-driven mainstream journos. They are not here to help you. They are here to rob you.8. For players, stop funding bad practices. If you keep paying charlatans and gougers, you'll just get more of the same and then some.
>>741866628>What are Western devs doing wrong?It's a mystery, no one has ever asked this question before.
All the nerds are off doing other things. we live in an era where you can fabricate almost anything in your own lab. And you're telling me we are sending our best to the dev-mines? nah.
Jeets
this is an unsolvable problem until leftoids start getting rounded up
>>741866628They have a weird disdain toward their audience that you don’t see from eastern devs.>antagonizing fans on twitter and instigating arguments>treating players like idiots by having characters tell you what to do or letting you skip entire sections>intentionally making characters ugly and feigning ignorance or deflecting when it’s brought up
>>741866628>Save the western industryScale back copyright to 5 years with a 14 year opt-in duration unless it is GPL licensed in which case fuck you INDEFINITE duration.Reword the DMCA to prevent retarded companies from weaseling in with an "ehrm actually, this could be used explicitly for unlawfully circumventing access restrictions", so that mods can keep getting made.Force abandonware into the public domain, preferably as open source. Either port it and support it, or lose it.The western industry is flagging, because a lot of innovation happens when modding new-ish games. There have been plenty of innovative western games that have been forcefully taken down, because a worse official version exists and the avenue was open due to a legal technicality or because the full conversion technically is a mod.>>741867297Big publishers are being propped up by big government. Monopolies on ideas were never supposed to be long-term capital or some kind of reward so that you could be set for life, they were a privilege to help novel R&D off the ground.
