This WAS his chance for redemption.

You gotta have been deemed first before you can be redeemed.

redeemed ? no
refunded ? also no
>>343255554

You faggots think he's fucked, but when he puts out a new game, you bet your ass people are gonna eat that shit up.

Never trust a kick starter. Did anybody not learn from Anita?
>>343255906
No his infamy is far too spread at this point
You cannot find a single Inafune fanboy at this point
Even people who didn't give a shit about Mighty No. 9 will learn about how badly he screwed up
No one will trust him ever again
>>343255554
The concept art looked as shitty as the final game does.
Who the fuck ever thought that design was good?
>>343255615

>>343255554
Mighty Blunder 9 has proven that he is a hack and Capcom no longer has any real use for him.
He's a lazy bastard who used the success of Mega Man to siphon money out of the fans.
>>343256030
Yeah, I remember reading that for Schaer as well, then came Psychonauts 2 funding and- whoopsie.

You say that now, wait till he releases a new game, people will fall for it, again. You're just too young to see this.
Didn't he make soul sacrifice?
If so good enough for me.
Megaman was shit anyway

This.
People still buy fucking Tim Schafer games for crying out loud. Look at Psychonauts 2.
>>343257927
Are you wanting to prove some point with Recore or something? It's not a game developed by him. Inafune will be sticking to publishing.
>>343258295
No? Just saying this happens in almost any game in the industry with an established fanbase, they will eat it whatever new shit releases, regardless of how bad it is.
>>343258076
he made Soul Sacrifice with Sony publishing money which he was contractually obligated to meet every development milestone. He still alive & kicking, but this is definitely the last we'll see Inafune come to kickstarter.
Jim Sterling got it right

This is why you never put game developers on a pedestal. It only takes one game to knock them from that pedestal.
John Romero with Daikatana, Will Wright with Spore, Tim Schafer with Broken Age and Spacebase DF-9, Chris Roberts with Star Citizen.
So has he made any comment now that the game is released?
>>343259610
"MN9's release was better than nothing."

He can, but he needs to stay away from crowfunding.
>>343259718
I want this to be true so it can fail another time when he bungles it the same way he did Red Ash.
>>343255554
No, the only good game Comcept has ever done is Soul Sacrifice, and that's because it was co-dev with Japan Studio.
>>343257824

>>343255554
>tfw pledged 200 dollars
>>343257927
>>343258117
This isn't the end for Inafune, but it is the end that he goes to crowd funding. I think he even knew that to begin with when he tried Red Ass.
That 4 million has costed him his reputation, & the destruction of his claim that he himself is capable of making the Megaman people want. Along with having to eat years of crow for his "Japan is over" & "Jap gaming is dead" smack talk. Which to me, is more humiliating than the complete decimation of Comcept.

I just realized something.
The original game in any Mega Man series is never the best one. It's always the second that's more fondly remembered.
If they make a sequel to MN9. We might get the perfection of this experimental formula.

I'm ashamed of Inafune, but I have to remind everyone he's also behind Soul Sacrifice Delta, the absolute best hunting game on Vita. He's not all bad
>>343262464
>Capcom rides Inafune's rampant advertised failure as free marketing for Mega Man
I hope they do it just for the shekels and kekels
>>343259686

Ben Judd said that and it was a mistranslation dummies
>>343262858
That game was co developed with Japan Studio and Marvelous AQL, people who actually know how to make games.
He's not the magic touch, he just came up with the idea.
>>343262464
>capcom will look into making more Mega Man games
They are. As mobile games :)
>>343262595
>"better than nothing"
that one did go out of hand, but that was still said by one of the devs.
>>343262858
Inafune doodled a blue robit 20 years ago. This is the extent of his working career.
![Seppuku-2[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/1MsB8y8.jpg "Seppuku-2[1].jpg")
>>343255554
Of course he can.
>>343262858
>>343263206
Inafune was always basically just an ideas guy and good artist who was capable of delivering the goods if he was just kept in a support role and not given overt amounts of creative control, which is largely why Soul Sacrifice is probably the only worthwhile thing with his name on it that's come out in the past decade.
Luckily, Inafune and Japan Studio both said they enjoyed working together and would like to collaborate on another SS game sometime in the future, which is doubly good since a sequel/spinoff/side-story/whatever wouldn't be tied down solely to the Vita.
>>343262595
Recore is being directed by the director of the prime games not con man
>>343262464
I wish
>>343264878
He basically means even if it's good, people here'll just bandwagon and slag it off solely because Inafune is doing the character and robot designs.
Even Jim "tumblrs best boi" Sterling is shitting on him, I guess even the upper parts of the internet hate him now.
Guy is finished.

He'll keep getting gigs based on his Capcom CV, you forget that ReCore and Red Ash both got picked up for funding by Microsoft and that Chinese company even after it well established that MN9 was going through serious development problems.
>>343257824
>that pic
Don't forget that he's responsible for Yaiba abomination. Also he said Capcom "ruined" LP2 because they made it too "Japan-esy". This is the fuck who wears USA servicemen jackets. He's quite literally like one of those parody pics of westaboos Jap cowboys.
There's probably more but I'm senile.
>>343261995
Cheetahmen Syndrome. Extremely ambitious project by people without the resources or knowledge to pull it off.
I read that he made Soul Sacrifice. He was already redeemed a long time ago, but then he kickstarted a game. That's when the bad luck started to enter his life. "Its better than nothing" was just a low blow from the translator.
>>343265560
>Yaiba
oh God I forgot about that.
>>343263174
You wanna tell us what stupid thing he said for real, then?

>>343265754
His involvement was Soul Sacrifice was coming up with the concept, writing a rough framework of the story, monster and character designs, and greenlighting various aspects of it through development . He was also quite heavily involved with the promotion of it, from memory. He didn't really have much to do with the development of the game itself. Also a lot of the improvements in Delta were down to him taking the initiative and basically cold-canvasing fans about what they wanted improved. So yeah, he was an artist and ideas guy for that, albeit he did his job extremely well.
>>343265859
The thing that irritates me most about Yaiba is that the art direction and character designs are really neat and deserving of a far better game.I guess at the very least, it's better than vanilla NG3.

>>343265869
It wasn't even a mistranslation. Judd was just talking over Inafune about how he felt about the situation.
Inafune said something along the lines of, "I own all the problems. If you want to hurl insults, throw them at me. They're my responsibility."
or something to that effect. Too lazy to look it up.
![heres-our-first-look-at-beck-in-yaiba-ninja-gaiden-z-A0QOI[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/8cmbd29.jpg "heres-our-first-look-at-beck-in-yaiba-ninja-gaiden-z-A0QOI[1].jpg")

Inafune didn't create megaman, he created Zero and wanted him to be the main character of X. Luckily his superiors told him that was retarded, because we got a few good games out of it. Not so lucky is that Zero eventually became the main character anyways, which then flooded the gates for even more retarded OC-tier protags and rapidly declining gameplay quality
>Axl
>JUST
Have you guys apologized to Kamiya yet for doubting him?
>>343266351
God fuck him. He avoided outright stating that he did fuck all to create Megaman for the longest time. He let the narrative of "Father of Megaman" run for too long without addressing it.
And when he finally did "address" it he first said that Megaman was actually his father for inspiring him to be a dev. Fucking hell.

>>343260280
Bloodstained is looking really good so far.
>>343267993

>>343255906
Inafune had to sell out to some shitty Chinese android console maker that ripped the design from the PS4 unit and Xbone controller just to get funding for his next game. He's already burned all his bridges in Japan and the West.
>>343255554
He was never a director. He didn't create Mega Man or the design. And it turns out he's a pretty bad businessman. So there's nothing going for him.
>>343268356
>play Chinese Not-Splatoon
>credits role
>Keiji Inafune's name all over the place
>>343258076
>Didn't he make soul sacrifice?
No. He and Comcept provided designs for the game. It was directed by Teruhiro Shimokawa and development was led by SCE Japan Studio and Marvelous AQL. This is what Comcept and Inafune are best used as. They make designs and art for the game, and another group of people make the actual game. Inafune is clueless about game design or what makes a good game.
>>343268650
Did someone tell him about the "Kamiya was Right" backer that appeared in the credits yet?
>>343263174
>Ben Judd said that and it was a mistranslation dummies
Yeah. We all really misunderstood when he said he was making a game
>>343263361
Here's Akira Kitamura and Inafune on the creation of Mega Man. Inafune didn't create anything. He did illustrations for the game, some animation and some art. He created Elec Man's design if my memory is correct. Kitamura and others created Mega Man.
>>343268909
Kamiya is sick of talking about "Mighty "blah blah" as he puts it. He'll block anyone who mentions it. To him, calling Inafune a "businessman" is not a controversial statement, or even a bad thing. Businessmen are needed in gaming. He's just not a director. But many fans are under the mistaken belief that Inafune is some genius game dev/director when he's nothing like that. He's an artist and a producer.
>>343268909
>Hey Boss, I'm working on the credits & a backer went by the name "Kamiya was Right", want me to edit that?
>Will you stop bothering me? I'm trying to strike a cartoon deal with Cartoon Network here! Do whatever you want!

>>343269435
I'm talking about via twitter dummy.
>>343269378
Plus Kamiya was quick to clarify that he's got no personal beef with Inafune, posting that recent photo of the two of them as proof.
The way people here go on, you'd think that Kamiya had a fucking voodoo doll of him or something.

I thought the premise for yaiba was decent. Too bad how it turned out.
>>343269776
All I can remember from Yaiba is TAKE A SUCK
>>343262090
This is the worst part. Inafune was more interested in making a franchise that he forgot that he needed to even start one.
Warning.

>>343270093

>>343270164

>>343255554
Only by committing sudoku.
>>343269991
He still had his head in the clouds and didn't realize Comcept and Ini-Creates are tiny studios. Anyone can make a knock-off Mega Man series. They don't need Inafune to do it. It's only if the game is a big hit that there might be desire for spin offs. He just thought that as "the mega man guy" he is entitled to the entire Mega man fan base and can get them without any difficulty.

They should just make the game cost 40 million and use the rest for expansion packs and sequels.
It's the 6th highest budget game of ALL time. How the hell can they possibly live up to that hype?

I didn't get the impression that LP2 was hated. Sure it wasn't as story heavy as the first one but it still provided a solid SP experience and an amazing multiplayer.
Inafune didn't like it because he doesn't like Nip things such as Monster Hunter but who gives a shit about his opinion. Some say he's one of the reasons why EX Troopers never got localized.
He's a westaboo cuck who outsourced Bionic Commando, DmC, NG, LP3 and some other shit to western amateur devs just because he hates Japs.
>>343278597
>EX Troopers
I remember being excited for that. Thanks /v/, now I really really hate that fucking asshole
>>343278597
The story of the first one sucked anyway so who cares about that. I think it's more the whole "harsh environments" thing the original had was mostly missing in the sequel.
>>343270093
Damn that's a widow peak that just won't quit.
>>343279301
Yeah and LP2 is better off without it. Piloting mechas in the first one was a chore because of the heat consumption.
