/v/ - Video Games

I think they can no longer afford to fuck up since they don't have their fighting games keeping them secure, and now my guess is that they'll try bringing back requested franchises, but I honestly doubt the likes of DMC5 will be as good as everyone expects it to be and I guess they'll go three, maybe four years of "oh my god capcom is bringing back [X]" before releasing a mediocre(MM11 was above average) sequel or remake or whatever before they either go mobile or realize what they're doing wrong. My money is on the former.

>>15972614

>Then Monster Hunter World sold gangbusters and proved the series can be a core console brand again

Because it was casualized and streamlined to hell and back. Capcom is garbage and is getting worse every year.

One of the big Sonic autists recently pitched a Darkwing Duck game to Capcom, but was turned down.

They still are pandering to the west.RE7 and MHW are proof of that.

Normalfags will probably keep buying whatever casualized or westernized game they sell.

I like how the fgc autists are the only ones trying to tell capcom to fuck off.Luckily i don't really care about any capcom ip that much.

There are current fan projects that are much better than this one, of course Capcom won't take it.

Street Fighter X Megaman was a fluke. Capcom hasn't taken fan projects since.

MHW was casualized cancer made with maximum normalfag appeal

Rest In Pachinko (R.I.P.)

>>15972816

>I don't really care about any capcom IP that much

That's a shame, they really do have some good ones that are sadly languishing underneath them

>>15972614

I think they have a ton of issues internally, and are really hurting for money more than we think.

>>15972614

They seem to be getting "back on track" but like any publisher that sits on a truckload of IPs they'll only be focusing on their main franchises, so don't hold your breath for something like Power Stone, DarkStalkers, Rival Schools, Dino Crisis etc. Anyhow, it's hard to tell what will happen to them in the near future because Capcom has a bad habit of making retarded decisions even when they're doing "well".

>>15972947

For what is worth the devs who were in charge of the cutscenes for the Panchinko game clearly have a passion for MGS3 so can see it in the attention to detail. I doubt Konami was like "yeah make the best cinematics of any pachinko game, here have a massive budget".

>>15972614

> Then Monster Hunter World sold gangbusters and proved the series can be a core console brand again

The only reason MHW sold as much as it did was because capcom actually fucking advertised it and dumbed it down even more than MHX did. MH could have always sold just as much but capcom refused to advertise the series and left it on handhelds for so long

>>15972889

Not when Japan keeps getting closer and closer to legalizing gambling and when the younger fucks turn to mobile games for their gambling fix over pachinko.

>>15972816

How is re7 pandering to the west?

Its texas chainsaw massacre while the original games are night/dawn of the living dead.

>>15973156

He means casualized gameplay in first person probably.

>>15973195

And the fact the writing was outsourced to a leaf communist.

>>15972967

>I doubt Konami was like "yeah make the best cinematics of any pachinko game, here have a massive budget"

It rumored that Konami did exactly that in an effort to piss away a large amount of cash. It's still not known if the Yakuza really do own a large portion of the company, but if they do (and it's certainly possible), that was an attempt to deny them money and get them closer to selling their stock.

>>15973195

I wouldnt call it casualized, its more like re 1 to CV than 4-6 ever were.

>>15972614

>what will capcom do in the next five years?

Well, all I want to know is 1) are we going to get Dragon's Dogma 2, 2) if we do, is it going to be shit, and 3) what ever happened to Deep Down?

>>15973223

I must've missed that part in RE1 where there were only 2 enemy types that are all complete jokes on every difficulty.

>>15973243

Oh please, do tell me how pressing X to be cool and getting ammo and health for killing enemies its a true resident evil experience.

>>15972614

they've already driven away most of the talent that made them great in the first place, itsuno is just about the only person left.

>Street Fighter is kind of at the worst point its ever been.

sf hasn't truly been developed inhouse since 3rd strike. iv was co developed with dimps which is run by people who actually understand how to make fighting games and by v nearly everything was outsourced to western studios like volta. wikipedia credits this guy as the director

>https://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,40699/

not only does he have no prior fightan experience, he's never even been in a directorial position before. the whole thing was shoddily thrown together while spending as little as possible. plenty has already been said about the rootkit or the fact that there was only one person working on the the netcode.

I am far from impressed with them.

Monster Hunter World and bringing the franchise to PC, making it a flagship title was obviously a good idea, but its pretty easy and casualized, plus netcode issues.

Bringing back DMC is also a painfully obvious decision, especially considering how vocal fans were about DmC, how they bought so many special editions of 3 it was impossible for executives not to see what people wanted. But those retarded executives also forced on a photorealistic artstyle on 5, which Itsuno explicitly stated.

I personally hate the artstyle, characterdesigns and most of the music in 5, how subhuman was okayed by anyone is bewildering to me. The gameplay looks on point.

So at best they went from 'suicidal retardation' to 'mild level of competence mixed with unnecessary, retarded decisions.'

>>15973537

>>15973563

Dragon's Dogma is being ported to switch.

If DMC5 sells even moderately well, Itsuno is going to do DD2.

I'm sorry.

>>15973435

>which is run by people who actually understand how to make fighting games

Bad Street Fighter clones, Akira is unironically higher quality.

>>15973624

That would be great. Trust me though they'll just give it the mon hun world treatment

>>15973660

Megaman Battle Network Gameplay Reboot. Gameplay. Story doesn't have to be the same.

>>15973645

>>15973660

Despite the casualization I think MHW is a very good game, especially on its own. If the casualization was gone it may have been one of the best in the series

>>15972614

>capcom

Pick one.

>>15974842

Unlike they said it was, rather.

>>15973534

That logo is a pretty bad mock-up. But knowing Capcom they will ruin Battle Network with politically correct current year plus memes.

>>15974874

I'm really, really glad the games were made before internet memes started showing up fucking everywhere.

>>15974927

Make your own IP as a spiritual successor and get off /v/.

>>15973257

Better than RE7 will ever be

Shortshitty boring games with no variety and that promises you open ended gameplay only to railroad you time and time again.

Fuvk RE7

I wouldn't really know all that much. I never gave a single fuck about most of their modern IP's in the first place. All I really know is their fighting games are in dire fucking straits, while Mega Man is doing well enough that they're apparently starting pre-production on a new one soon, that's nice I guess.

Also the fuck is going on with Ace Attorney, they made a big deal about there being a new game in development for the switch last year, but now apparently it's just Ace Attorney Trilogy, the same fucking game they've been rehashing for YEARS, AND it's apparently so difficult for them to do they had to push it back to 2019?

>>15972794

That wasn't a good choice in the first place. He essentially pitched Mega Man Mania, only the character is a something Capcom would have to get a license from Disney for, and they likely don't want to do that, after MvC4 bombed.

>MM 11 was great

>MHW was a step back but still fun

tbh it looks adequate

Where is Keiji Inafune right now btw? I haven't heard much from him or his Comcept company after that Mighty No 9 flopped.

>>15975085

He's making mobile games for the Professor Layton company.

>>15975088

>making mobile games

What a sad way to end your legacy. No dev deserves that fate.

>>15975009

>I couldn't possibly do worse than Inafundme's

Yes you could and without experience you probably would.

>>15975103

After he scammed Marvelous with the non-existent penguin pirate game?

>>15973534

The most offensive part of this mockup is that there already was a Battle Network 6

bankruptcy

>>15973435

no surprise that all the people who did SF2/Zero/3 are in ARIKA, SNK or their own thing. No one left in Capcom who worked on SF did SF4 and SFV except for sound guy Onoo (& his stupid Blanka toy).

>>15972614

>Seems like only a little while ago ole' Capcapom were still falling for Inajewne's internal corporate sabotage to push the western appeal meme

Gee, I wonder why it might seem so…

MAYBE BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF SHIT THAT THEY ARE SCHEDULED TO PUSH OUT LOOKS LIKE POZZED WESTERN GARBAGE THAT IT IS

Is it still Inafune externally sabotaging the poor innocent global corporation? You'd think nearly 10 years would be enough to find another man who has worked in the company for decades and then suddenly decided to cause every single wrong decision that it has made, even with IPs he never had any say in, even years after he was forced out of the company.

>>15974935

>Make your own IP as a spiritual successor

Yeah, if you like baseless cease and desist orders.

>>15972614

>So what do you think is the future of Capcom?

Continuation of milking western market.

>>15973624

Its going to be better

>>15975701

They're made by dimps moron

>>15973624

why the hell would something good ever happen?

>>15973220

There's no Yakuza, just a classic corporate tactic. They dumped a lot of money into this pachinko machine, released so few of them that people who went to Japan and actively hunted them down couldn't find and naturally this means no one played it.

Why they do this? Taxes. Corporations do this all the time, make a big flop intentionally so you can write it off on your taxes as a loss.

>>15972614

>Monster Hunter World sold gangbusters and proved the series can be a core console brand again

The series was always one of the biggest brands though. Pretty much the only thing that could rival it was Dragon Quest. If anything, we're probably going to see World 2 bomb because it spat in the face of all the old fans, and the people who made World 1 successful are about as likely to stick around for the sequel as they did for Lords of Shadow 2.

I got my MHXX I wanted, so iunno.

Glaveanus alone was a far better fight than ANYTHING in World.

>>15976743

That somehow looks shittier than Mock Battle, an actually free BN-inspired game with netplay.

>>15972765

Most of the changes were made because of non potato graphics.

Tri was the biggest casualization of the series and it’s was the first mon hun games for anons.

>>15975072

>MHW was a step back but still fun

It was a full turn around and sprint in the opposite direction, to the point it isn't even in the same series anymore.

>>15976858

No it wasn’t.

This is the same claims that Sony fans made when it went to Nintendo.

I know the real reason your upset.

>>15976875

Fuck off retard, the game is casualized shit. You're not going to fool anyone.

>>15976895

So was tri bet I bet it was your first mon hun.

Dos was the best with mechanics added not taken out like Tri but you faggots gobbled that shit down.

Comparitevly world isn’t that bad. Did it add a gimmick like water combat which took the teams focus which lead to the smallest roster and areas in any mon hon? Which also was dropped after because no one liked it?

No?

I’m not expecting an actual argument. You’re just going to spam the report button claiming console war.

>>15976920

Dos had shit that was taken out in later games too. Tri isn't the only game with swimming. World is far worse that Tri. You're full of shit.

>>15977092

Are you illiterate or just retarded. My point wasn’t removed mechanics. Seasons in dos were great.

My point is that water combat took half the development of the game. They had to double the animations for water combat. Change how physics worked in the engine. Etc.

And because of this had the smallest roster and areas.

Where dos has double the roster and areas while also adding mechanics that made it harder.

I know it has nothing to do with mechanics for World. Because the minute it was announced multi play there were faggots taking clips of the gameplay and lying about it.

Like one claiming diablos was slower by comparing different attacks which would mean different animations and speeds.

Or janky animations that were from clips early in development that weren’t in the final product.

Again I know why you REALLY dislike world and it’s not the mechanics.

The guild girl though really is ugly as sin though.

>>15977139

People have been posting fucking essays on how all the changes in World make it a bad MH game since it came out, and faggots like you still conveniently ignore it all to make false claims about people not liking it on certain platforms. You're lying to defend a shit game.

>>15976816

This looks kinda good.

>>15977181

People have been making essays nitpicking the smallest shit.

Or outright lying about things.

Your argument is essentially

>the mob tells me there opinions so I don’t have to make my own.

>>15977181

>essays

You mean that one 3 post long copypasta of points that gets posted every thread where half the points are applicable to previous games or just straight up lies and the others boil down to this "UI change/improvement offends me" or "game doesn't have enough content" somehow spread among 20 lines of text.

>>15976816

>Kickstarter

>roguelite

Would normally say it's absolutely disgusting, but shit actually looks like it might be good.

>>15977248

This. One could turn the same ultra-critical eye to some of the clunky BS in other MonHun games and write nitpick essays on those, too.

>>15977139

>Yer just a salty nintenbabby thats why you don't like it

Compelling theory, except I put 300 hours on mhw across PC and Ps4 pro. Still find myself returning to XX because despite the changes, it's a better Monster hunter than World.

>>15976858

Anon your hyperbolic rhetoric doesn't hold any water when grounded in reality. MHW has big issues when compared to classic but that doesn't change the fact that one can addictively sink hours into it while the time flies because its fun.

>>15977277

>>15977203

I know, I'm just as surprised myself. Needs Multiplayer though. That's the only reason I'm still looking at Endcycle VS is that's already implemented. That or trying to revive a project that's been dead for 5 years… and written in Python.

Well that would be cheaper than hiring multiple shills, so it makes sense. It's probably the same shill in every thread since the same shit "arguments" are used to discredit criticism all the time.

>>15977921

Eh, looked like shit anyway. I'd be more sad about Megaman Powered-Up, even about Maverick Hunter X.

>>15979759

I don't gotta claw with XX on my bingbangwahoo machine.

>>15979853

And I don't either using an actual controller in World, or the godawful keyboard controls that at least don't give me carpal tunnel like the PSP.

>>15977139

>Seasons in dos were great.

On paper, yes. In practice, when combined with the abysmal storage capacity, it just meant you got stuck with random requests you couldn't fulfill because required a material you couldn't gather in that season and expired once the season ended. I really wish they had developed the idea more, but as is it's pretty much a nuisance and little more.

>Like one claiming diablos was slower by comparing different attacks which would mean different animations and speeds.

Except Diablos IS slower. For christ's sake, have you seen how long he takes to pull himself out of the ground in World? It's a fucking disgrace.
