[Americanmushroom]

Reinforce the DLC.. Sounds good..

 

[Creaking]

Gawd. That's revolting.

Capcpom rearing it's ugly head.

 

[jabuseika]

Casual, Monetize, DLC... not the words I want to hear Capcom.

PC growth, Steam, lowered-price. Yes, please.

 

[Knurek]

Breath of Fire 6, the latest version of this popular franchise.

Oh Capcom, that one felt like a gutpunch.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Hahahahahaha, wonderful.

I understand why. It doesn't make it hurt any less though.

 

[Coxy]

"upgrade monetizing measures" is one way of putting "lets really fuck people as hard as we can"

 

[kmax]

Oh Capcom....how they've fallen.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Reinforce the profit structure sounds scary as hell

 

[Love Deterrence]

Gotta start somewhere, man! Hope it works out for them.

 

[jiggle]

Which part does dragon's dogma 2 fall into

Bof6 :'(

 

[Varth]

Yea... uhm... sounds appealing : (((

It was Capcom that got me into gaming, basically. I'm at a loss of words to say how sad their state feels to me.

 

[NewGame]

They keep releasing crappy mobile Monster Hunter games. People don't play Monster Hunter for the brand, they play it for the gameplay. And the gameplay involves two directional sticks (sometimes three) along with at least 6 buttons.

 

[TAJ]

Welp... nice knowin' ya, Capcom.

They listed "Monster Hunter Hunting Quest" as a strong performer so someone is using their mobile titles.

 

[Big0Bear]

this plan sounds like the reason I stopped being a fan of theirs, not going to get much support from me in the near future

 

[Creaking]

The dream realm.

[1st Course]

“Monster Hunter Mezeporuta Kaitakuki”

What is this? I'm aware of Frontier and the Tencent MMO but first time hearing about this.

 

[Asd202]

Painful.

 

[Joseph Merrick]

wait, deep down is online only? not capcom's dark souls? fuck that

 

[Creaking]

wait, deep down is online only? not capcom's dark souls? fuck that

It's got some sort of Free to Play system as well.

 

[Nirolak]

wait, deep down is online only? not capcom's dark souls? fuck that

It's an f2p game with randomly generated dungeons.

 

[Impeccable]

Capcom is going keep-deep with the "mobilization" of console gaming. If they do it right it could be a turning point for gamer perceptions on the value of F2P. I just don't see Capcom being the company to do this right, though.

Unfortunate.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Step 1: regain Marvel license
Step 2: port UMVC3 to PS4/Xbone with new fighters and a Killer Instinct-style F2P option
Step 3: respect and profit

 

[Prototype Viktor]

what only 6 versions of Monster Hunter? I'm guessing 0 of them will be for PS3/4

jesus

 

[Nozem]

Can someone post that NeoGAF quote from a few years ago, that was used in an internal Capcom presentation? I want to see what's changed.

 

[Neifirst]

I wish Nintendo could buy the Mega Man IP from Capcom. I want a new title with those Smash Bros. Wii U graphics!

 

[gabbre]

Developing more titles internally? They finally learned the lesson?

 

[Xpliskin]

More internally developped titles and STEAM releases,

I'm kinda hyped.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

I'm gonna be honest. If DMC5 was a true sequel to 4 but had DLC out the ass...I'd still buy it all.

That and Bayonetta are two franchises I'm just a sucker for.

 

[ComputerMKII]

I hate corporate speak/buzzwords so much.

 

[Renekton]

Casual, Monetize, DLC... not the words I want to hear Capcom.

Investors may want to hear them

 

[Hours Left]

Almost all of this sounds horrible.

 

[Scum]

Niro, what are the chances of a "high% DD/low% retail" Capcom in about a years' time? Seems like nearly everyone is slowing setting up for it...

 

[Jon Armdog]

STEAM releases

My brain immediately jumped to Dragons Dogma PC release with mod support. Gimme.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

A Resident Evil Otome game would be nice.

 

[Stone Ocean]

So whore out everything they have? Yeah, good luck with that

Also

Mobile contents
Capcom brand: Centralize development operations, upgrade monetizing measures

Does this means what I think it means? Basically "focus on mobile, scam people harder"?

 

[Senor Kami]

They catch a lot of hate but SF4 and RE5 were two of my favorite games last gen, UMVC3 is my favorite game to watch, and Dragon's Dogma is a title I put over 100 hours into. You guys hate em but I don't see what they're doing so wrong. No other publisher put out that many games that in so many different franchises that I enjoyed. The closest is EA solely because of BioWare.

Keep on truckin I say.

 

[LuchaShaq]

Online Only games?


I bought ZERO capcom games for 360/ps3. Looks like I won't be buying shit for next gen either.

 

[monome]

Capcom hates itself.

Tho I understand it's a big company and most of its execs are crying rivers of bitterness at GungHo's earnings, unless they have some directors with a clear vision of what to do, they should follow suit with the Dead Rising 3 example, and try and get the console makers co-publish some of their IPs exclusively.

With no vision, its best to please a company that shares its own with you.

 

[Raw64life]

Online only, F2P and mobile. Sounds like I'm not buying any Capcom games this gen.

 

[-MD-]

Just throw everything on Steam already so I can buy it all, past and future titles.

Resident Evil, Dino Crisis, Dragons Dogma. Everything.

 

[Nirolak]

They're moving their mobile development primarily in house to try and improve quality.

They're also trying to monetize the games more effectively, yes.

 

[Lernaean]

I actually liked the part where they plan to develop internally for knowhow.
I also am possitive on upgraded DLC to extend a game's life.

...but some other plans, ugh.

 

[Shengar]

They're also trying to monetize the games more effectively, yes.

Monetize their games effectively.......
I hope that doesn't affect their mobile ported game or I will bail out completely.

 

[Nirolak]

Monetize their games effectively.......
I hope that doesn't affect their mobile ported game or I will bail out completely.

By this do you mean games ported to mobile or games ported from mobile?

Though I guess it doesn't really matter too much since they intend to monetize heavily on all platforms...

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

That's probably what investors want to hear.

Personally, though, I just think it's sad to see what this company has become.

 

[Xav]

What happened to just making plain old videogames? It seemed to have worked pretty well from 1983 up until Capcom decided to start being idiots.
