It feels like Capcom is one of the last real ones who still make sick-ass games

Yes, in Capcom I trust. Finishing up DMCV:SE, got one trophy left that im going to wait on getting. I was playing a bunch of the Capcom Fighting Collection recently which was fun messing with older fighting games from the past. Street Fighter 6 right around the corner and that game is awesome already from what I played in the beta and the full game i'm already putting down as fighting game of the year.
Now the wait for Pragmata and Dragon's Dogma II updates. I'm excited for those.
EDIT: Oh and I forgot Ghost Trick Remastered. Gotta get that too.

For my personal tastes, I struggle with Capcom beyond RE and DMC, but I definitely wouldn't trade their place in the industry and culture for anything. Capcom, properties down to logos, just fill me with nostalgia and hobby pride and memories of cozy ass weekends during high school with a Friday night thunderstorm playing RE2.

Capcom has always been great, even though nowadays their output is not as diverse as it used to be.
They should really remaster Asura's Wrath for current and last gen consoles, that gem shouldn't be stuck on PS3/XB360.

They’ve always been one of the best devs in the industry. They created the fighting genre, survival horror genre, hunting action genre, they are amazing.

Monster Hunter, Dragon's Dogma, Devil May Cry, Resident Evil, Megaman X; they've got so many great series that I dig.
Even their usage of microtransactions is minimal. Gotta respect that (except in cases like RE4 Remake lol). Now if they could just make Megaman Legends 3...

By remaking a 2005 game? IIRC, they haven't had any actual new game since 2021. I would even go as far as saying their output this gen has been a let down in comparison to 2017-2020.

I've been saying this many times before, Capcom are one of the best if not best in the last few years, at making real games with quality and variety, hope they'll keep up, and as long they do they will keep getting my money.
Oh didn't notice the OP, for once a thread that isn't full of BS

All of those came from an era when making games was cheaper and faster so it was safer for them to gamble on new IP and have higher output. Right now making first party games costs millions and require teams of hundreds so they're simply sticking to things that turn a profit and I don't blame them for doing that. At least they're not putting all of their eggs in one basket like Activision does with Call of Duty. They are still able to run multiple IPs with several highly acclaimed games coming out of each of those franchises. That's still fucking amazing.
Exoprimal is also a big gamble for them but if it pans out then they have another banger in their portfolio with a potential to become a more lasting product.

No more Crapcom?
Capcom have always been a brilliant 3rd party developer. Loads of good games still coming out from other developers' mind.

Capcom have had a bit of a journey in the last decade. After RE6 and a general trough after their PS2 peak they went back to the drawing board, and it worked. They put the effort in and regained credibility.
They still make mistakes, like RE3R, but their average is high enough. I'll eventually get DMC5, and like many others I'm patiently waiting for DD2. If it's anything like the original, we're in for a treat. I just hope they iron out their technical problems, because that seems to be what holds them back recently.

I hope the street fighter 6 is awesome, I feel that apart from the first one. I don’t think they have really lost the touch. All the mainline SF games have been great
Yeah I know five was barebones and all, oh XTekken was made by them.
Oh
That had the whole DLC BS and MTX
Bad capcom
But compared to Konami they are in a better position and making better games.
old school gamer here and capcom and Konami were the best third party back in the day (never played rpg games so square wasn’t my thing) for the games I liked and the diversity of games they produced.
But I hope capcom continue to do well and release more switch games. Not on cloud.
Ok thanks.

I absolutely love the Resident Evil remakes and Village was good, but I don’t really care for anything else that they put out.
IMO their best era was the PS2 era.

They consistently put out great games in multiple different IPs. How is that "coasting"? Especially in this day and age when you're lucky if any given publisher has more than 2 big IPs still active to their name.

I don't like their monetary practices but I play most Capcom franchises like Devil May Cry, Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, Dragon's Dogma, and Street Fighter. And I'm actually curious about what the hell Pragmata is all about, not even saying SF6, Dragon's Dogma 2, Resident Evil 9/RE5 Remake.

They make quality games but all of their games are starting too look the same. Visual design is also becoming generic. It's probably the engine being reused.

Idk how I feel about this one. They make good stuff, but they also have only 3 IPs that are worth anything. And I only care about one of those 3.
If anything, I would say they are generally just safe. How many new IPs have they made in say the last 10 years.
MH has been nothing more of a rehash since its inception. They basically took their OG RE4 mechanics and remade every RE games based on that with modern mechanics and qol features. The boldest thing they have done with the franchise was going to FPS in 7. SF is well... SF.

Funny enough, the engine used has nothing to do with the artistic direction a game takes. They look the same not because of the engine but the artists working on it. Proof? can you believe that SF6 is also built on the RE engine?

Megaman 11 was the best selling game in the franchise, devil may cry 5 too, that will be the case with dragon dogma 2 too.
Ghost & goblins resurrection (i dont know how much it sale)
There are rumours of a new onimusha, pragmatta doesnt seems to ve a live service game (we dont know yet, but it doesnt seems a live service)
Give capcom some time. After those dark years between 2010 and 2017, i dont have a problem with them accumulating all the money they can with resident evil and monster hunter, because of those games will come the money to make games for the other capcom franchises.
Now capcom can make a street fighter without having to do
exclusivity agreements with sony for example.

Welcome to Hyperbole Land !
Can we talk about the fact that it seems they can't create new games anymore though and rely heavily on Monster Hunter / Street Fighter / Resident Evil and the everlasting games compilations ?
Kudos for The Great Ace Attorney Collection though, it was a joy to see this coming West.

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
They're easily my favourite developer, the only thing I have against them is the whole stupid Skort business.
And they need to give the new Resident Evil entries to Team 1 so they can make a new RE in the style of the Remakes.
but as Team 2 can't seem to deliver the Remakes as good as them ( You have one job with RE3R and you fucked it up)
I don't trust them to do them either.
They should just merge the Teams and have Team in charge.

Capcom feels like they're found there footing, but they're playing things a bit too reserved, IMO. Like, I recognize Mega Man is never going to be a AAA franchise ever again, but it's disheartening they've completely abandoned the IP, despite Mega Man 11 having performed pretty well. They're also REALLY taking their sweet time delivering any of their "legacy collections". It's frustrating how many glaring omissions there are in their "collections", though, instead of just letting people buy the games they want to play.
Still, I think they are one of the few developers who still em brace that uniquely "video game-y" spirit of gaming back in the 90's, with secrets or unlockables, things like that.
Honestly though, I'd kill to see them try and finish Mega Man Legends 3, even using it's clearly-dated graphics. The Legends games ages supremely well, thanks to their "anime" aesthetic. It seems like a shame to have left the series on the cliffhanger they did.

I get what you're going for but buying out a bunch of first party devs and owning an entire console platform kinda doesn't compare. That's like saying Microsoft are the real Gs because they bought out a bunch of studios and slapped their own label on their games.
Capcom is a developer/publisher who make and release their own games.
