Why isn't the Atelier series on PC yet? Niche japanese games are doing really well on steam nowadays, is there a reason to not release them? I don't think sony has bribed TK on that one either.

I don't think they made the current engine with PC in mind is all. It would probably be a nightmare to port.
I suspect the next gen atelier games will be made with that in mind.
Then again i could be mistaken, but it makes no sense for Gust not to release on steam at this point.

Gust was bought out by a traditional publisher instead of expanding their business to the west like IFI or Xseed. It allowed them to continue the outdated 80-2000s approach of console exclusivity. Their 3DS Rorona disaster is also going to leave a bad taste in their mouth for ports to any console.

Gust doesn't have enough staff to spend time on that sort of thing, and they already know there's enough of a fanbase on Sony consoles to sustain business.

When will this meme end?

Pic because you faggots cry about not getting said games then don't buy them anyways.

There is nothing wrong with a game being available on more platforms, it means more people will play it, which means the fanbase expands, which means the series grows bigger and more mainstream, which means more money and ultimately means bigger and better games for everyone. Everyone wins here, stop with your fanboysim console friend.

Stop trying to justify your $800 rig

The point is developers get more money to work with for the sequels which is objectively a good thing.

So you can't?

>>339973109
They don't want to.
It literally will never be released on PC.
Only emulation would work, which would take years to become decent.

Metal Gear
GTA
Saints Row

And those all happened after they got popular
Metal Gear got popular with MGS
GTA got popular with GTA3
Saints Row got popular with SR2

>>339974158
That's because a lot of peoples who used to play true console games are starting to drop consoles and you can't blame them looking at the shit Sony/Micro/Nintendo are pulling lately. Especially when Sony and M$ will basically kill consoles next week
>>
>>339976363

its a subjective question so of course you're going to get subjective answers you piece of fucking filth
