Forums - Gaming Discussion - Japanese games are showing Western devs HOW IT'S DONE!

The thumbnail lacking Dark Souls 3, Zelda BOTW and including FFXV and Jakuza make me not want to watch this video.

How did Disney copy anime? You're just making things up. Disney's basic animation has been the same since the 40s. It's 2017, info is easy to come by. You're making yourself look foolish

2 decades ago, yeah sure.

Now? Don't be silly

So what was the western masterpeice this year? Or what was the last good western singleplayer in general if you take Sony IPs out?

Witcher III, Fallout 4, had high hopes for Mass effect, There is a new Tomb Raider in the works and RDR2 comes this year. And plenty of Sony IP's developed in the West. Long live playstation. And lots of Forza games. Gears of War 4, Devine divinity 2.

Japan has always done fighting and platform games the best. Everything the west(America and Europe) does better in my opinion(clearly others by sales). People used to love jrpgs until elder scrolls made most jrpgs with their lineal paths look silly. I do like Persona 5 because I believe it's reinvented the jrpg.

Ever heard of the Lion King? Yeah... that was an anime first.

Surprised you didn't know that, ya know since info is easy to come by and all

Yawn everyone knows Disney stole the idea and a lot of their ideas. Notice I referred to how the anime styles are drawn. So what does that have to do with Japanese artist copying disney's animation? Sad attempt lmao. Try again😂😂😂😂😂😂



I do generally prefer Japanese games over western ones, but dismissing western games like that is quite odd. The success of many Japanese games in the west is a genuinely great thing, but that doesn't meant that western games are somehow inferior as a result. This year has brought out excellent games from both sides, and this looks to continue for the rest of the year as well.



More like "Japanese developers have made a few titles recently that managed to appeal to the West again." Overall, Japanese developers are still deep in the hole where overall production values, critical acclaim and commercial success are concerned, compared to the West on current consoles.
Most of the biggest franchises from Japan from the past two decades that have made it big globally are still either in hiatus, have recently had installments that were considered an affront to the franchise and its or plain and simply not sold very well. Others are or have been stuck in development limbo, which is a terrible thing to praise.

Long story short; that video is bullshit, through and through.



I think dwindling popularity of fighting games have also hurt Japanese games. All the old school 2d fighters on Super Nintendo and genesis. The 3D fighters like Tekken, virtual fighter, dead or alive, etc really aren't that popular anymore. I miss the days of the fighting games.

Nah, what's sad was your attempt to try and downplay anime in the first place

I didn't downplay anime. I love anime but anyone with a brain knows their artist copied disney's style of animation. But tell yourself otherwise. By all means show me the style they were doing in the 40s and 50s lmao. Alot of anime today still looks like Disney from the 40s and 50s
