I'm just gonna go ahead and say this. I totally feel for all you guys wanting Japanese games to play on your Xbox, who wish Phil would do more to secure those titles. I can certainly appreciate the need for MS to do more on this front as there is a number of people asking for it, and diversifying their portfolio can only win them some fans in the long run.
However.....me being selfish, on a purely personal, honest level here. I could not be happier if Phil mostly ignores the Japanese market and puts those MS dollars to use just getting as many western games as possible. Because if I'm being real, just speaking from my heart of hearts, I honestly find most Japanese games to be absolutely terrible. They're incredibly niche for the most part, their gameplay mechanics are boring and/or outdated, their characters are the worst stereotypes in any medium, and a great deal of them have too much of an anime style which I'm not a fan of.
Now, that's not to say that there aren't select games coming out of Japan that I absolutely adore, that I would kill for to have exclusive on Xbox. But by and large....I simply find western games to be far superior and a better investememt for Xbox, because I just don't believe that the real fan base of these types of games will ever choose Xbox over PS and Nintendo systems.
And again, to all those of you who feel different, I totally get it. I sympathise. In an ideal world we can all have all the games we want on our system of of choice. But if Phil wants to double down on western games, and resign himself so to speak to just getting the big multiplats like FFXV and KH3 or what have you on Xbox....that's totally cool with me
