Anoter agency will fill the void, no ?
Doesn’t seem like the audience has grown tired of VTubers so

Tbh considering how those agencies control the creators, it'd be nice to shed them once they've gotten any possible popularity from being part of them.
Things of the sort never work in favor of creators. Never have, never will.

Honestly I imagine most Japanese people probably don't think about Vtubers much in one way or the other

Funny how Uma Musume is now famous worldwide, while it was already super well-known in Japan since 2021

That's why it's gotten really popular

Gacha games in general seem to have like a couple months in the spotlight and then people doesn't wanna talk about them unless they are actively playing like the MiHoyo stuff
upper trail
Honestly it's perplexing that it's now current year and Japan still operates on such an antiquated practice of "release a gacha and then release it way late outside of Japan"
upper trail
Meanwhile Korea and China will just make a gacha game and release a whole version for everyone to play no issues
hasty niche
I can't reveal much lmao
But like
My company helped a lot back then, advertising the game

Honestly it's perplexing that it's now current year and Japan still operates on ...
Takes money and development time to adapt stuff, and microtransaction dependent games of the sort aren't really operating on a money buffer.

And those gachas are clearly not Uma Musume now are they.

Like China has their Chinese version or whatever but its very clearly only specifically to be able to play ball with the government's esoterism
I don't just mean Uma now wouldn't I
astral dagger
Stuff like Fate, Arknights, Blue Archive and so on needed to catch on before releasing worldwide and they seem to do much better than global releases.
Might be wrong because I don't play the stuff but it looks like that.
Like it genuinely helps that it's "that asian game now released in english!" Over "this brand new gacha".
Only ones I think did well at that were the Mihoyo ones and its because they got disgusting budgets, and still, people only really remember Genshin if they're not fans of the stuff already.

Fate is a oldbag game at this point I get why they didn't bother
The other two games you mention though did release globally at the same time
hasty niche
Not sure I'm totally following the discussion here but I think they decided to release it on a national scale only because they didn't think it could work on a global scale, at all (Stating the obvious here... ?). Like, when you look at Uma Musume it seems quite niche right ? The whole concept and gameplay
upper trail
Chinese version is only there to, again, follow government's esoterism
Outside of that they all release exactly the same and all

That's what I'm trying to say yah

This is all as I remember of course maybe they have a limited release before doing a full release but that still wouldn't count for me
No that's pretty fair

I used to work for a company back then, a japanese one similar to Steam. And we released Uma Musume.
A big company
astral dagger
Doing a global release is using a ton of money and resources for something you don't know could take off and would cost you the whole project.
upper trail
I just think doing this type of releases and then doing a global version and not making it synchronous at this point is just not exactly the play

And our employees decided to play the game too, wondering why it was so popular
And everyone was like

Again, I think it's less of a lack of desire to do so and more the fact that you have to pay for translation, possibly assets, distribution, extra staff and servers.
Specially international servers must be expensive as all hell to get and maintain.
For games that are typically free to play.
upper trail
Indeed
Tbf I am putting these games on the same scale as like F2P western titles (gachas smachas they all work on the same GaaS basis anyway) and when those titles bothered enough to do translation and localization fully global while Japan still has that apprehensive culture is silly
narrow prairie

Would it be cheaper just to use the player’s own internet server for multiplayer???
astral dagger
Aren't most F2P western games either extremely expensive or very localized and taking advantage that a lot of people don't care about stuff being in english only?
Like it's really not a cultural thing as far as I'm concerned.
hasty niche
I just think doing this type of releases and then doing a global version and not...
Well, I think it’s easy to say now that Uma would have worked globally too, but it’s like… how do you say that in English lol? Hindsight bias? I don’t know.
Back then, they did think it could fail even on a national scale, I guess. 🤔
But they improved I think
Not talking about gacha
But normal games
Before you had to wait years before a localisation
Like Fire Emblem Games
upper trail
I mean where I'm from the only real distinction is "this one's from Japan this one's from America" because it's not like we ever get localized language on our side
hasty niche
Or Pokémon Gen 1 lolz
astral dagger
Would it be cheaper just to use the player’s own internet server for multiplayer...
That's not really how online games work though. The info has to reach a game server one way or another or you're just playing a single player game and the owners of the game have no control to send and take info.
So you gotta have servers close one way or another.
upper trail
Actually recently so many of these F2P games have started to add localization to our language which unfortunately tells me these games' market is widespread 
astral dagger
I mean where I'm from the only real distinction is "this one's from Japan this o...
I'd still put it down to stuff like publishers. It's just not the same scale of development and budget even when the ones in charge of the money don't do the development.
upper trail
That one's fair yea
astral dagger
I'm more angry at stuff like console and PC games with stablished developers and publishers that have localized stuff before saying in Japan because... Yeah.
It's like if Nintendo makes a gacha and doesn't localize it, that's just them not giving a shit.
But not everyone is part of the real big companies, which these days are in the west or under one of the big western ones.

Oh that's fun
hasty niche
Yeah, I basically learned English through… life? And Japanese through osmosis, living in Japan, and some intense studying. 🙂↕️
quartz obsidian
I have multiple Japanese resources plus a thick work-book, still haven't learnt it
I learnt the first alphabet 1 or 2 years ago and forgot it then don't have any time to sit down and learn everything
hasty niche
Japanese requires a lot of time and regularity, sadly.
hasty niche
I was living in Japan before learning the language
quartz obsidian
One day
hasty niche
So in my case, it was quite easy to motivate myself to learn the language
quartz obsidian
I used to do like 30 minute to an hour long sessions every day to learn the alphabet
hasty niche
To be honest
1 hour a day
Is already a lot
Especially if you do that on top of watching anime and stuff
upper trail
The best motivator to learn a language is to literally plunge yourself right into the society that speaks it
quartz obsidian
Eh anime really doesn't teach me shit, I've watched over 160 and still haven't learned anything
upper trail
Live in Japan for like a few months without any knowledge of the language and (if you are normal) you'd probably be able to converse at least
hasty niche
Because you don't learn Japanese at the same time haha
quartz obsidian
English is different since I was learning it since 2nd grade and on top of that was watching and reading everything in English
quartz obsidian
Because you don't learn Japanese at the same time haha
Lmao exactly
hasty niche
But if you do, you will pick up some words
upper trail
Even if you do try learning it through anime imo it's not really applicable
It's like trying to learn English strictly by just watching Saturday morning cartoons
You're missing an awful lot of nuances in the Japanese language in general by just watching anime
hasty niche
Even if you do try learning it through anime imo it's not really applicable
It’s not, you’re going to get yourself into a fight if you speak like they do in anime lmao
quartz obsidian
The most I've learned is prolly terms that stay without a translation in novels and you just learn what those mean
upper trail
Yeah those translations are a little stupid sometimes
quartz obsidian
Tho it's not very effective since I read both Korean novels, Chinese novels and Japanese novels lmao
upper trail
"Hey you're gonna learn a new word because we don't think there's any other word that can convey the meaning okay there ya go"
the word is literally just 'best friend'
quartz obsidian
Lmao
hasty niche
But it’s still nice, because in the end, it’s still Japanese. That’s a long debate, though. Some people recommend anime for learning the language, while others suggest avoiding it. Personally, I think it’s totally fine not to rely on it for learning, but to use it as a supplement. Running into a word or sentence you’ve just learned is really satisfying. 😌
quartz obsidian
I'm excited for my college course, I signed up for an English course instead of my native language, might even improve my fluent English
upper trail
I can understand if its words like 'schadenfreude' where the closest translation is literally just a whole ass sentence
hasty niche
I'm saying this as someone who doesn't actually watch anime, though
like
I started watching them a few months ago lol
upper trail
But some translators treat Japanese as if its this amazingly nuanced language where words all have such deep meanings that are hard to translate and like
hasty niche
Because Netflix and Amazon doesn't provide any subtitles, most of the time
quartz obsidian
Some dumbass nearly hit me
upper trail
Okay we're talking about the same language where it has notoriously some of the largest amount of loanwords out there
hasty niche
(Netflix provides at least japanese subtitles, and for Amazon you're lucky if you get Japanese ones)
quartz obsidian
And start flailing his arms when I looked at him
upper trail
It's just me personally though Japanese has a lot of nuances some people are just really weird about it
hasty niche
I mean
It's always so interesting to see how people will translate
"San" in anime
Or "boku", "Watashi", "Ore"
Extremely basic stuff, in fact
But I know that some anime will have "san" translated into "lady" which is REALLY weird, but I'm pretty sure the people who localize these anime are aware of that, so...
quartz obsidian
Crunchy roll has been doing really shit translations as of late
They got a lot of heat for that
upper trail
Of course its shit they underpaid their translators lmao
Fansubs are most of the time better but man you gotta just learn to live with them leaving out random words because of random reasons
quartz obsidian
It's hard if it's a complex anime like lord of the mysteries where they legit get facts incorrectly

So we should be grateful

Mmmh
Some movies did that

But I can't remember any game shaking my psyche
I mostly play games for the gameplay, so I might more or less unconsciously avoid the ones with heavy story
alpine marsh
I enjoy both in equal measures
hasty niche
I think NIS is actually quite good at this. All the games I’ve played from them had a unique atmosphere, somehow silly and absurd, yet still capable of resonating with you, that I really liked. That’s probably why I didn’t enjoy the story and characters of Disgaea 5 as much, they felt a little too grounded for me.
Especially Killia

Still
hasty niche
Not as a boss, no
hasty niche
Pretty sure she doesn't have that
alpine marsh
Shame
hasty niche
Seems like the Steam version allows you to play with Petta though
alpine marsh
Ah neat
hasty niche
"The PC version is more or less the Director's Cut/Complete Edition of the game. If you're gonna take the time to play Makai Kingdom, you should probably be playing the PC version if you've not got a translated copy of the PSP one released in Japan since the PS2 version will be missing the new content."
alpine marsh
Will add that to my to do list then
hasty niche
I think I’m going to buy Makai Kingdom, Zetta is one of my favorite characters, and it’s a shame I haven’t played the game he came from lol
Disgaea 7 has no shame

I was just checking the reviews for Disgaea 7
And noticed the recent reviews were super negative
And I was wondering why ?
They decided to release a deluxe version on Switch 2, it seems.
I had no idea
Nintendo 2 switch exclusive... For now.
alpine marsh
Problem is: Switch 2
hasty niche
Yes
But I can imagine they'll release it on PC and other consoles soon after
They're super greedy lolz
Can't imagine they'll limit themselves to the Switch 2
alpine marsh
Yeah Disgaea games and all their dlc are harder to justify as things get more expensive
hasty niche
It's getting more and more absurd with time, yeah. Better wait a few years (??) to get the complete game at a much more reasonable price.
Nintendo Switch 2 in Japan has 2 versions : japanese version, fairly cheap but only providing Japanese and one "international" super expensive but allowing you to display other languages while playing games.
I'll need to decide if I'm going for the international or japanese version 😒
alpine marsh
Neither of which are S2 exclusive atm
ZA has a Switch 1 version
If you already have a og Switch you are good for now
hasty niche
I'm glad I didn’t buy it yet, because I think that besides the console, the games themselves are absurdly expensive, and I disagree with that policy
You're right, that's why I didn't buy it.
But I wonder for the future
alpine marsh
Kinda hard to predict the future these days with how...sudden changes hapoen
hasty niche
Yup yup
alpine marsh
Ideally you hold out for a cheaper model
alpine marsh
But I doubt that can happen while Nintendo has the current leadership

Considering how well the Switch 2 has sold so far, I’m afraid it won’t happen soon though
