Why do people keep begging for PC ports of games if they can't even outsell the fucking vita audience with 12 times the install base?
>>
Because most "PC Gamers" are kids who asked their parents for a gaming PC, but don't have a job so they pirate games.

It feels a lot like playing Final Fantasy I. I haven't played a lot of it, but from what I played it barely has a story, attack animations are extremely simple and stiff, and the game is unusually grindy really early on. I don't really care for it. I think it would've benefitted a bit if they stuck with the 2D art; I think the game looks kind of ugly in 3D and it makes the animations look worse. Your character just takes a step, swings the sword horizontally, and then steps back as an attack animation.

>>344722181
That's unfortunate. I liked the DS port of FFIV personally. I think the 3D and voice acting (also in III?) really benefits it.
>>
>>344722353
Why should it have crossplay? You can literally cheat in this game with fucking cheat engine, why on earth would anyone want to play with PC players?
>>
>>344722393
III doesn't have voice acting, unfortunately.
>>
>>344721272
You're missing a zero on some of those numbers buddy.
>>
>>344722542
Because many players would not be using cheat engine and it'd be fun to play with other people to take down big monsters. If you're really paranoid about cheaters, one could simply only play with people on one's friends list. This is how I'll be playing God Eater 2 when it comes out.

PC users pirate at the drop of a hat. When they see a Jap dev they immediately assume poor port and pirate out of spite. Not like they could afford it even if they enjoy it though, seeing as most PC plebs are poor as fuck. This is why nobody cares about the platform.

If you look at NPD numbers, which track physical Amazon, Gamestop, and Best Buy sales, you find that the PC ports greatly outnumber the sales of the console versions.

I don't think Steam charges for having the game on the store outfront like PSN and XBox. They just take a percentage.

Pirates.
They don't want to admit it because they want to justify getting games with out paying but its a problem when people choose to pirate a game instead of buying it.

I don't get how people can say being able to get a game for free with out paying would not affect people buying the game.

If you asked someone "Would you like to pay for this or get it for free?" most people will want to get it for free, its the same thing with games.

>>344723458

>>344723669
Look I also play PC and buy my games but go to any thread about a PC game, a third of the posts will be "link to torrent plz/So I pirated this game/Is this server pirate friendly?" etc.

A good example is that Warhammer space rts game.When it first came out a third of the threads were people complaining about the game crashing and how its a shit game because of that. Well it turned out all that crashing was because of a bad crack that skidrow(or who ever) released. It was a very real case of "Well maybe you should not have pirated the game then :)" that /v/ likes to meme about.

This happens to 3DS games a lot too though. There are literally threads made constantly asking "Why haven't you hacked your 3DS yet?"
Go into a 7th Dragon III thread and a lot of people will say they pirated the game and beat it already, and the game isn't even out yet.

They're posted to Neogaf all the time. Some of those physical games only hit 7k-10k on Vita.

Also you have to mention that the cost to port this old vita game isn't quite the same as developing and localizing it. A port job can be done by a small team of programmers.

Considering marvelous themself did the port and it couldn't even surpass SK2s japanese sales which according to them were a failure I'd be surprised if they are happy with some small "extra revenue". It's the same company that sees valkyrie drive as a failure despite making profit. Why waste time on some small change when you can make games that sell better and generate even more money for them.
>>
>>344725293
Well yeah, but the Vita has become a console for niche weeb games only now. Or at least it's very close to it. Sure, a lot of people have computers but since the games would only attract a small number of people anyway it's only natural that the majority of those PC gamers won't get the game.

That being said, I'm sure there are a group of weeb gamers who would love these Vita games, and that's why it's getting some sales.

I do own the original hardware (PS3). I just wanted it on my platform of choice, as there are benefits to having it on PC that make playing the game more convenient for me. And it was ported, so I purchased it. Then I played it and beat it and had a good time doing it. Just as I've done for many other games that got ported to PC. Sometimes I even buy a game multiple times on different platforms!

>>344720727
Lots of dumb replies but not one mentions the reason why:

The shelf life of PC games, STEAM titles in particular, is way longer than console and handheld titles. Likewise, game sales are more evenly distributed across time rather than spiking during launch since a lot of people wait for discounts.

You need to look only at something like Dragon's Dogma, another game that made the rounds in dumb threads like this yet sells some 50k copies every single sale.

Niche games get catered to the wrong crowd when the original audience becomes a silent minority.

Go compare Demon's Soul's quality and polish compared to Bamco's treatment of the Dark Souls IP for example. Catering the series to PvPfags also contributed to ruining the games.

Demon Souls and Bloodborne were funded by and owned by Sony while Dark Souls is a Bamco property. There's no reason to assume the same kind of money is going between them. And you very well know that some people would argue that Dark Souls/3 are better than Demon's Souls.

Fair point, but it still stands Demon's Souls and Bloodborne are more polished and complete than the Dark Souls games, with the addition of the majority of people that dicksuck Dark Souls 1 never touching Demon's Souls or Bloodborne.

Not at all true. Posting requests for game ports encourages developers and publishers to be more likely to consider porting a game. Developers and publishers are all over the internet. Even here. Actually, ESPECIALLY here. Furthermore, there is a tad bit to be gained in discussing the likelihood of something happening based on currently existing precedents and information that the person posting such a request may not know about. For example, if there's a licensing issue preventing a digital release of a game, that would be pertinent information to divulge to someone who might ask for the likelihood of such a port to occur.
>>344729664
I called it shitposting because you referred to it as shitposting and because admittedly I hadn't looked at the image yet and just assumed
And yes,asking why people ask for games but don't buy them is shitposting, as its an extremely general question judging groups of people based on inaccurate information and without any attempt at addressing the differences between markets as well as showing a lack of knowledge about the general expectations of publishers when developing a port, as generally speaking they are the only ones who have any sort of knowledge as to whether or not sales numbers are actually good or not. I do not believe the average /v/irgin knows how to interpret sales data, as can be seen as the arguing below in the thread. Furthermore, to backtrack a bit, OP made a claim about a group of people without any attempt at interpretting the data deeply. He posted a poor generalization, and used VGChartz as a reference to boot.
