IcaroRibeiro said: So why instead of spending money to make 2 games, why not release a single game to all platforms and support them all at the same time to get the same money from in game purchases and DLC. A consolidated game per generation with everybody playing together is about as lucrative a franchise can be. It will miss some Nintendo sales, because people will prefer to buy it on PC or Playstation, but will cost them far less money for develop too |
Because they cater to different audiences, World is similar to prior console MH while Rise is structure more like the Freedom series so more suited to what MH enthusiasts, you can't have it both ways so the result is one platform will suffer in its version. By building specifically for the platform ground up they maximized sales more than what you're suggesting as PS and NS are almost 18m sales by themselves because the people who want what World brings aren't the same as the people who want what Rise brings all your suggestion does is ignore an entire section of the fanbase and lessen potential sales instead of increasing them.
