| flagstaad said: I think we are hurting more from NOT getting the games at all, than they are of not losing money because we don't buy the games anyway. We can tell them we deserve better, if we bought the product in the first place and making it better could mean selling more, saying we deserve better and not buying anything is just give them reasons to not try at all and that is exactly what is happening, and I would rather have good but not perfect versions of the games, than no version at all. We are not beign fed shit, is not like the Wii U version of the game is unplayable, or unenjoyable, sometimes is just a few frame drops, sometimes is a useless feature that is missing, but Nintendo fans consider it "shitty" versions, when they are just unpolished ports, will they use more time to get them better, sure they will! but only if the effort (that costs more money) represents more sells, but if with the current effort, that is not cheap anyway, they are not getting any positive results why should they expend more to get the same or worst results. Deus Ex was 20 U$ more costly, now is the same and it has exclusive features, is the game selling now? did it make any money for the publisher? no and no. So why bother with the new Tomb Raider? no reason at all. They gave up and I agree with them. You already are biased against 3rd party efforts on the console, have you bought many? have you seen the quality of the games? or you are just judging from the distance? some companies did an effort and we cannot convince more to do it if those extremely rare cases of good quality go and sold the poors amounts that it did. We just have to accept that Nintendo consoles are bought to play Nintendo games, and go out for a second console, and hope that Nintendo can survive this generation by themselves. I did my part, I bought the games, I even helped sale more of those games to my country men that cannot get them on official stores, but now I can only cross my fingers and start saving for a complementary console or PC, nothing else. I cannot demand anything from them because they will just show me the awful numbers that they have and I will agree that they made the right decision. |
You continually miss the point of what I have said @.@
Point 1: The Publishers have dug their own hole. It doesn't matter who suffers more from it, it is not the consumer's job to dig them out of that hole.
Point 2: That hole can be filled by Publishers, if they put in an equal effort more than once. This will have long term benefits for everyone, although the short term results will likely be mixed.
You keep focusing on the short term and the past (and blaming the consumer for some reason), while I am talking about what publishers should do for a better future.
