Is it possible for shitty video game companies to redeem themselves? If you think they can, how can they? How would game companies like pics related earn back the reputation and respect they once had? If you don't think they can, why not? How far down would you have to be to be irredeemable?

Stop making shit games with shit kike narratives, make a couple good games, listen to people and their feedback along the way, if you fuck something up then bow your head and acknowledge it publicly and try your best to make up for it.

I have no reason to hold a grudge when someone isn't doing bad things and is clearly trying to better themselves.

Seppuku or any other kind of mass suicide, alternatively killing the other kikes.

As they are they cannot make good games, to do so would require such a change to the company they would not be comparable or reasonably called their former, now current, selves.

>If you think they can, how can they?

By doing the exact opposite of what they're doing now.

>Ubisoft

<The minority and feminism pandering is more than blatant, every story driven game of theirs is full of agenda pushing nonsense. Had their games be solid gameplay some might be able to look past it, but they don't even have that going for them. Their games are jank and buggy as fuck out of the game and just plain casual shit you play once, to completion if you somehow manage to not get bored to death, and then forget about. 0 depth.

<Their two multiplayer only games, R6 Siege and For Honor, saw some potential when they had this weird period where they seemed to have a sudden spark of clarity about not running them into the ground with horrible micro-transactions and other shit. Nevertheless For Honor was a disaster throughout the first year and still struggles to recover and Siege is well past its peak and on its decline, the fact that they're going full censorship on what people say ingame just makes it more clear.

>Activision

<Frankly I hardly pay attention to them anymore. They love money just like every other big publisher, but they only make normalfag games like CoD and that's fine in my opinion. They stick to what thy know and I won't have to bother with them. That's the image I have of them. Don't know if that's accurate.

>EA

<Irredeemable. There's no room for recovery whatsoever even if someone inside that hellhole tried.

>Konami

<lolpachinko

Going by this, Ubisoft could have the most to gain from unfucking themselves, it's clear they still have talent in their dev teams, but I don't see it happening. Their French diversity pozz is running too deep, making every potentially good game they push out inevitably a sad waste of potential.

If they were to do so, however, they would need to fire every person that worked on writing the story for all their games the last few years and hire actually competent writers and stop trying to ride the diversity wagon. Some better QA couldn't hurt either because for an AAA studio their games have a reputation of being shamefully buggy.

Kick every kikes and feminazi and everyone responsible for shit games and political shoehorning from the office and fuck their portfolio at least thrice over so they are gone for good. Fuck the (((marketing))) in the ass and instead redirect budgets to make good game instead of massive ads and shilling. No more DLCs, only large expansion packs; no more micro-transactions; no more online only shit; no shovelwares. And lastly, stop hoarding IPs to stop competition especially Acti and EA. Cough up those venerable IPs and sell them to better teams.

This basically. Also, think Konami shouldn't be on that list. They may be Yakuza owned, but they made fucking great games for over 30 years and saved Hudsonsoft and let them keep making Bomberman.

In general you can't compare Japanese studios to those kosher western fucks. Even Nintendo is better than anything the pozzed west has to offer to be honest.


a25ff8  No.15329306

EA and Activision are murderers that should be tried, sentenced, and hanged. There is no coming back from what they did to Origin/Bullfrog/Maxis/Westwood and RavenSoft/IW/Blizzard, respectively. Between the two, EA is more egregious, but they still deserve the heaviest handed treatment humanly possible. Do not buy, humor, or consume EA products, do not humor them and do not trust them no matter how reformed they pretend to be.

Konami and Ubisoft could repair their reputation by not being absolute shitheads and garbagepeddlers for a reasonable and appropriate period of time, not even a very long one. Konami in particular is still tangoing with being an actually good company; some branches have been meddled with and need a reset while others are still just doing what they know, and what they know is A-OK.

Most of the ones you posted are too far gone. Fuck, even if the normalfag fanbases three of the four there chase and appeal to all dropped out of the consumerbase in an instant, for whatever their reasons, never to return, they and other companies would likely prefer to go bankrupt continuing to try to entice them back with the same shit they've been doing, rather than do some digging into what actually makes a good game, a good buy, and a good company, and try to change for the better.

To their defense, that's NoA. They've been censoring and sabotaging Nintendo more than anyone else. Nintendo Japan should just get rid of it completely and grab one of those 10 Japanese citizens that actually speak English to let them do the job. Thats would be a win/win for everyone.

>>15329156

Oh, yeah, easily. The just never, ever will, because any and all the things they would need to do to fix their reputations would hurt their bottom lines in the short term, regardless of what benefits those steps would have down the line.

The problem isn't that "they can't be fixed", it's that they don't want to fix the problems.


2ea681  No.15329433

>>15329381

Issue is whether NoJ is aware of, or if they outright support on the basis that they stand to increase sales, NoA's handling of things, to the point they'll even consider purging their western branches. And as far as trying to communicate problems to them, even that has potential roadblocks of it's own; not just language barrier (while to my knowledge knowing English to a degree is encouraged in their businesses, it's always easier for someone to read something in their native tongue, assuming it's written correctly), but also what, if any, policies there are for who handles feedback from what regions (if NoA and NoE are supposed to handle feedback from NA and PAL respectively, letter and emails might just get rerouted back to the cancer being rightly spited, to determine what message to pass on to the Japanese branch, or even if to pass anything along). Best solution would probably be a Japan-living moonspeaker aware of the problems overseas, but a lot of the ones I've seen around here take a "lol just learn moon and import" stance rather than try to change things here, since traditionally western versions don't effect them. Though, with NoA and/or Treehouse wanting to get directly involved in Japan's actual development of games (and likely other western branches of companies) to sanitize and claim that they censored nothing since the Japanese version would be the same as what we'd get, chances are that benefit's days are numbered.


ec19c5  No.15329437

>>15329381

I don't buy that defense at all. The Japs still have the responsibility for when their overseas division fucks up. The "Japan gives 0 fucks about the west" or "They don't know what goes on in the west" does not fly with me. Ignorance doesn't suddenly exempt you from responsibility. and they sure as fuck care about the money the west brings them.

If you have a branch overseas then you should be fully aware of what they're up to.

No. Stop being a retard and trusting companies. Every single time you trust a company they end up doing something pozzed and ruin the entire gameplay of their newest game. Developers are not our friends and unless we're obnoxious and bitch about every problem we'll just be shoo'd as if what's demanded is ridiculous.

>>15329437

The thing about Japanese work ethics is that it may be borderline slavery, but you basically won't ever get fired unless you piss on you boss' desk. Like, someone mentioned Kojima. This is typical for Japan. If they want to get rid of you, they put you into a position you can not fulfill until you quit on your own.

They would have to do penance for the equal amount of time they were shit

So Ubisoft would have to do a little over a decade's worth of time doing good shit, creating good games and so on before they'd earn back my trust

That's a bit extreme, but they would have to keep up good behavior for a long period of time with actual changes to their staff, policies and marketing obviously, and obviously make good games

they can still pump out an enjoyable fluke once every 10 years, siege is fun, call of jaurez gunslinger was fun.

Unrelated but it looks like Tencent saved Ubisoft from being taken over by Vivendi, topkek

https://archive.fo/K3uWN

>Tencent is the world’s largest gaming company, and it owns pieces of Activision, Riot and more. Over the past seven years, the Chinese giant has been buying up bits and pieces of video game companies, expanding its influence throughout the Western world. Tencent has been in the news again lately thanks to helping Ubisoft stave off a hostile takeover by French entertainment giant Vivendi.

>The deal keeps control of Ubisoft with CEO Yves Guillemot and his family, while giving the publisher an established channel for bringing its biggest games into the world’s largest gaming market. Prior to Tencent’s purchase of a 5 percent stake in Ubisoft, the duo teamed up to release the successful Might & Magic Heroes: Era of Chaos mobile game, designed for a Chinese audience.

>Tencent seems unstoppable. Pundits joke that if the company doesn’t already have a piece of an another publisher’s action, it will soon. The Chinese giant has used the restrictive nature of its home market to become an intimidating force. Unlike with Vivendi, though, Tencent partnership and investment has, so far, brought opportunity and prosperity.

I dunno about Ubisoft, they're the least evil out of this group mention here. But depending on what type of Ubisoft game that you buy, there's gonna be some wokeness to varying shades of degrees. I still see Ubisoft do some forms of microtransactions and loot boxes. - I personally don't understand why some normalfags get upset when they find out that the latest Ubisoft game will have these, all their recent games will have microtransactions/loot boxes, unless they're helping some indie company make it big or a non-AAA game of their own. Last but not least, you're better off buying a console, get that console version of that particular game (Since Uplay is optional in consoles, unlike PC), or pirating, because of Uplay, to my experiences, Uplay mostly works, but it's a half-finish building, like there's no gifting system yet for example, and I won't recommend it 50% of the time for PC gamers, because of these apparent issues, also, Ubisoft will add more DRMs to protect the game, what's embarrassing is that some of these DRMs will get you ban out of that particular Ubisoft game as a whole or the multiplayer I heard. There's the tech support, if they're there and if you can find them. - It's better than nothing, I suppose.

At least, Ubisoft is trying to improve a little bit, like trying to communicate with their fans via forums and setting up social media (I suspect this is one of the reasons, why Ubi got rid of Uplay Passport, because of customer feedback.), but with all the issues that I mention are bogging this company down and they cannot reach their full potential. Because sometimes, I laugh in their faces,with some of their grand plans, this is due to me having a mixed reaction and I don't have much respect for them despite that they're trying to not be too evil/kikey, like that Malaysian amusement theme park and selling Assassin's Creed Mega Bloks.

Make games good. Put effort into your games, programming, testing, et caetera. Make games with actual, solid gameplay instead of going after fads like socjus.

Fire kikes, feminists, nonwhites generally and anyone that isn't actually working.

Marketing doesn't polish a turd, your games will not be better for it.

DLC is without fail cancer. If you make something extra for the game that everyone's already paid for, why not just release it as is and maybe spark interest in the game again?

Still impotently butthurt soyboy? I'm not going anywhere.
