Some Japanese never going to do big numbers does mean you stop supporting those game only invest guarantee sales?
if those games can't continue funding those projects.
This is business. Its not a charity
If the game is never going to sell 20 million, that doesn't mean Sony stops making them as they have a boat load of series that don't move massive numbers that are still around, but its because they sell enough to justify them continuing to exist. When they are putting all this behind some AAA title that is flopping aka TLG, it makes complete sense that they have to part ways, same with that whole White Knight series lol
Games like Last Guardian, Gravity Rush and even Soul Sacrifice never going sell as much big western games but
I disagree. We don't know how much better any of those IP could have been under different circumstances, as we've seen AAA Japanese titles move huge units, its simply that TLG, WKC, Gravity Rush and Soul Sacrifice simply weren't the ones.
I mean..think about it, if Sony owned Capcom, you telling me RE series won't move massive units? Monster Hunter World won't move massive units? Soooooo clearly someone in Japan is moving massive fucking units to argue not only a market exist, they can sell as much as the um "big western games".
We have more then enough AAA Japanese titles that have been successful to argue that a market exist and games like TLG simply flopped. Its not cause no one wants those games, its not cause they can't be made...clearly Sega, Capcom and Square all have a fuck ton of titles that have broken records for us to see such a thing happens, it simply didn't happen at those teams at Sony besides that Astro Boy game.
I mean Nintendo supported games like Bayonetta and Astral Chain knowing those games never seem as much Mario or Zelda but they wanted to make their select diverse,
You can still do that with all the titles already on PS5 and PS4...
If Nintendo wanted their selection to be diverse, they would make a western title. As it stands, not only does Sony's first party break many records with their western titles, they have the support of those AAA Japanese titles that in turn also break records for them too.
I don't see any evidence that anyone's library is less diverse cause you want more weeaboo games by Sony or something, they already have that shit by other publisers....as to why they wouldn't waste the money doing even more of what they have a lot of lol
So where Sony has their own western first party, they also can depend on those big Japanese hitters like FF, Dragon Quest, Persona, Resident Evil, Persona etc I just don't see anything here to argue they are now suddenly less diverse cause the won't make WKC3 lol
"now all focus goes to western games" yea...thats 100% false btw. I get you like that weeboo shit, but stop lying about that just to argue. Most, sure, majority, you'd have a point...but stop arguing this whole "all focus" or "Sony completely stopped"
