In entertainment, what is originality, that is, "authority"?
For example, in recent years many so-called "original things" have been created in the entertainment industry. One of the reasons may be business risk. If it is a popular original work or a sequel to a series that has been popular for a long time, the sales are easy to read, and conversely, it is difficult to recover the original work once it fails.
“If this situation continues, Japan will end.”
It is Hideo Kojima, the world-famous game creator, who calls the alarm.
After a demo at PAX East 2024, we sat down with Visions of Mana producer Masaru Oyamada to talk about the Mana series as a whole.
Phil Spencer is ushering in a new age for the Xbox platform, one that could be appropriately titled ‘The Multi-Platform Age Of Xbox.’ It’s begun with four games coming to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles, and if recent reports are true, there’s many more to come.
Spencer dug a bit into why he’s leading Xbox in this new direction, and how part of this change comes from Gen Z buying habits, and the lack of growth in the console market.
Lmao
“It’s not our fault Xbox fans, we have no choice, blame yourselves or the young”
I thought he said a while back it was because of AAA budgets being so bloated or something
Apparently sea of theives was a huge successful on PS so I guessed the board has seen dollar signs and that small batch of games will probably Expand
Wccftech checked out a presentation of Dune Awakening at GDC 2024. Creative Director Joel Bylos also revealed Funcom wants to polish this game before launch.
offcourse Japan was always superior in visual arts as videogames .....nothing from west comes close to them and that s hurts as i m " aboriginal " european and our developped countries cant match even to the minimum japan superiority in this sector ....if mobile garbage industry hadnt dominated their market we would have seen miracles from Japan ...PS4 started to change this for bit and for the better
Japan needs to stay weird for good reason. Nuff said
Turn based anime was never my thing,
neither is anime in general. And as much as I loved MGS, Kojima’s overly convoluted storylines are what I cared for least about those games. Don’t know why any game with realism, live action, and a non-fantasy story that can be followed gets called “westernized”. White-washing so many of their characters doesn’t really help either. I’m sure westerners are the reason for that too?...
Japan has its own unique thing they should stick to their style of games. When those publishers chase western trend they tend to not have much success
Yakuza is a clear example of that I think it was ahead of it's time until Yakuza 0 really gave the franchise the boost it need and brought awareness
