last thing they need is a no name outsource job when testing new waters, that's probably the worst thing you could employ for a new tactic in a new market you've hardly touched. Especially if their first job is to not care and outsource and eventually as they do a job themselevs for their first time and end up screwing up, if the outsource jobs gets screwed and then they take a crack and screw it up themselves then that's twice they fucked up in a new market. They do not need to blow such a chance too early because you want quality before others, I'd rather they do a rgeat first job and leave a good first lasting impression than a shit one. |
And if you don't outsource, you're wasting your top talent on porting old games that have already made money. I'd rather the time and resources be spent on new projects for their hardcore fans. We're talking about XSEED, NISA, Aksys, etc. These are tiny studios. :-/
Even then, there's no information to really show that it helps. Certainly didn't help Legend of Heroes SC, which sold pretty terribly.
