Can his career rebound?

how the fuck he manage to look same in three years??
>>
>>344258613
not as a creator of /v/idya
no need for threads about him here

>rebound

at what point did it go down?
>>
>>344258740

Not true. He's the creator of Mighty Number 9 and Red Ash!
>>
He's gonna coast on Chinese money for another couple years til either Red Ash, ReCore, or the inevitable Mighty No. 9-2 fails. ReCore is his last tie to the American industry, made before Mighty No. 9's spectacular fall from grace, and if Red Ash goes down the Chinese are gonna fuck him hard.

They confirmed it's still happening though earlier this week.

Also they need to just stop trying to make new Mega Mans and realize IntiCreates alone beat them to the punch like two years ago.

Comcept wanted to create a New MegaMan that they had full legal control over. As CEO of Comcept they could be the new Capcom.

Yeah that was the beginning of the end for MN9, to be honest.
>>
>>344259803

That was their plan. Inafune was a mere producer at Capcom. He wanted to be CEO of a new company, producing a regular Cash Cow series like Mega Man. He saw that there was interest, and he's the "Father of mega Man", so he went ahead.

If he succeeded, Comcept would grow in size and power, and Inafune very rich. Take a guess who owns the rights to the MN9 characters...

Maybe they shouldn't be Capcom.
Not like they could with shitty Megaman games
>>
>>344260010

Absolutely. But he and Comcept own the rights to everything relating to MN9 and Red Ash. Inafune could coast on the fame of Mega Man, but couldn't directly profit from it. Now his plan was to cut Capcom out of the equation completely.

You'd think that he'd be at least a decent manager after being a producer for so many years. But his greed got to him. Put it on EVERY console ever. Use Unreal Engine 3.

>>344260027

No way. Nothing since the pitch video which was 3 years ago?
>>
>>344260139
>(The fuck were they thinking with that Umbrella Corps shit)

Shooters are big. Let's make shooters.

Smarter idea: Make a NEW shooter series. Support that.

>>344260190
What's that word that, in literature, tends to describe a person who lost due to his sheer arrogance? Oh right, hubris.
>>
>>344260486

Yeah. Inafune didn't seem to realize the situation he's in. He's a small indie studio now. He still thought he was at Capcom, with Capcom level resources. Capcom could have pulled off MN9, with a simultatneous multi-media release. But Comcept couldn't.

In a way, MN9 was great because it laid out what NOT to do. Shovel Knight, Bloodstained and others learned from Inafune's hubris and mistakes and avoided them. It looks like Iga is going to pull off a game of the NDS Castlevania quality in 3D, which is basically what everyone was asking for. If he can do that, while using Inti-Creates (who made 90% of MN9 too), he'll make Inafune look like a bufoon. If one project can be a success while the other a failure, it looks like the only real difference is in who managed the projects.

>During a livestream of the game on twitch.tv for the release of the game, translator Ben Judd stated “But, again, we can hope that if things go well, there'll be sequels. Because I'll tell you what, I'm not getting my 2D side-scrolling fill. And at the end of the day, even if it's not perfect, it's better than nothing. At least, that's my opinion.”[58] Later during the same stream Keiji Inafune stated: "I own all the problems that came with this game and if you want to hurl insults at me, it's totally my fault. I'm the key creator. I will own that responsibility."[59]

Ben Judd is a retard. The reason kickstarters fail is because some idiots with no experience think they can make a game, can't manage the money, can't organize a project. MN9 is supposed to be led by industry devs with years of experience. The bar is set a little higher.

I was there for that entire stream.
Ben Judd got a paycheck to sit there and apologize/rationalize for an hour.

>>344260840
Shovel Knight didn't learn anything from Mighty No. 9, it was just developed by a competent group of people, one that managed to get their game out almost a year before Mighty No. 9' first delay.

It's even funnier when you note that Shovel Knight actually pushed Yacht Club to publisher status, allowing them to fund their own physical release and to publish the physical release of Gunvolt/Gunvolt 2.
>>
>>344261276

The stream is gone now too. Did anyone save it? It's a gold mine of apologies. They laid out what wwent wrong.

A little bit is lost in Kamiya's poor English. He wasn't shitting on Inaufne. He was just saying "Oh that guy? Yeah he doesn't make games. He's just a producer". no judgement about it. It's only because the MM fanbase are literal morons, that they think that Inafune created the series, created all the good games, and is some director that people were shocked when he said it. He has no ill will towards Inafune, and in later tweets says he doens't know him and has never worked with him.

>>344261721
It was "muh loli Roll 2.0" (although admittedly she looks more like Ciel). But it was also part of them trying to recreate Megaman, when they should have really tried to create something that wasn't like Megaman at all. They had a cool idea to start with and they threw it away due to "tight budget", and decided to just fall back on making a dash2win clone. Instead of distancing themselves and gaining an extraordinary identity for Beck, he just became shitty dashy Megaman wannabe.

Inafune and co. deserve all the shit and flak they get for these kinds of decisions and bad management.
>>
>>344262396

Did Inafune get publisher money as well or did they just get Kickstarter money? Because Bloodstained's goal was 5 million budget with 500,000 kickstarter, and 4.5 with publisher.

Inafune is a tiny Nip midget and he's taller than Kamiya. Makes you wonder how tiny that man is. He must be seen as short, even in Japan. Leads to his manlet rage.

The game itself isn't really outright bad at all (Though some across the board performance issues make you ask some serious questions), it's just so completely plain and mediocre, and by all accounts, should've been oh-so-much better.

You really do have to wonder about that fucking credits song, though.

Krillin is much more flattering to his image than his avatar which looks like a japanese kim jong-il chibi.

It makes it sound like a mecha anime, which I'm sure was the intention.

Speaking of anime when the fuck is Rosenkreuzstilette's Steam release? That game looks like it was made on a budget of a few hundred dollars and is infinitely better
>>
>>344266467
>Speaking of anime when the fuck is Rosenkreuzstilette's Steam release?

They allocated very little resources for the English version, so it took years. The dev blog says they were about to submit their release candidate last month. So the release should be soon. If they were smart, they'd push the game out right after MN9 to capitalize on it.

>That game looks like it was made on a budget of a few hundred dollars and is infinitely better

It is. It's a KISS game that focuses on good level design and fun, at a low budget, rather than some over complicated nonsense. It even looks better. My only complaint about the graphics is that the sprites are good, but the levels look a little cheap and flat (the edges are literally perfectly flat).

It's amazing that Inafune showed what a massive kike he was with MN9, he could have turned Comcept into his own Capcom by starting with MN9 by using all the money to make a fucking great game and build a foundation for great support from fans to eventually see Red Ash's kickstarter be an even bigger success
But instead, he thought $4M would make him enough to kickstart an entire franchise for a game that's not even finished and will turn out to be garbage that no one wants and now he's a fucking laughing stock
