There's been a noticeable effort lately from Capcom to appeal to core players and make games more like classic Capcom.
>MonHun bigger than ever
>Megaman franchise testing the waters again
>DMC 5 hinted at
>Dragon's Dogma on PC with a sequel being considered
>SFV looks THICK
>Remasters of classic RE games, before 4 ruined the franchise
Is Capcom back? Could it be true?
>>323928928
I fucking hope so. They used to be my go to for great games
>Is Capcom back? Could it be true?
Yes, because they don't have a choice.
About a decade ago Capcom got greedy, and western markets were growing bigger and bigger. So Inafune along with other Capcom staff was convinced "westernization" (aka casual, outsourced DLC ridden shit) was the future.
This backfired hard for them, and now they have to come crawling back to their old fans. Because they were like an inch away from getting bought or bankruptsy.
I'm glad Capcom seems to be coming back, but one has to be careful not to blindly trust them so that they go full retard again.
I assume it's because the vidya industry isn't growing as fast as it used to 5 yeas ago. Even companies that have been memed to go full mobile, like Sega, are doing it, so it would make sense for Capcom to also focus on the audiences they know instead of endlessly testing waters and trying to break into the AAA market.
Call me when they finally follow through with making a new Darkstalkers.
4 is the best RE fight me kid
But still, that brainless hack Inafune fucking off was a good thing. Still, baby steps.
This thread again?
capcom games were always good
their business practices just went to shit
Isn't Capcom the company that just wants to make Pachinko machines
>>323928928
>Capcom reborn and re-evaluated
GEEEEEEEET HYYYYYYYYYYYYPE!!!!!!!!!God, I really hope they return and make amends to alp the bridges they burned
>>323930570
Dead Rising was a pretty good series, I hope they continue it since every game has been good, even DR3except maybe chop till you drop
>>323930715
Yes. #FUCAPCOM
>>323928928
Porting games to PC are irrelevant to the quality of said games.
That said, capcom have been putting out good stuff lately and I'm interested to see where they take monster hunter since the 3ds is nearing the end of its life cycle and how they've changed Deep Down since tgs 2014
>>323928928
No. Someday you will all see through the lies.
DAI GYAKUTEN SAIBAN IN THE WEST OR TO HELL WITH THEM
>>323930715
They've come crawling back to their old fans after firing Video Konami and killing the Metal Slug franchise.
>>323930715
You may thinking of Konami
>>323930715
That's Konami
>>323931093
It kind of is when Dragon's Dogma is like a poster boy for needing a pc port. Letterboxing on 720p and STILL dipping sub 30 frames on consoles was such an ridiculous thing.
>>323931184
Kek'd
>>323930715
Nah, bro; that's Konami.

>>323931093
Putting effort in porting a really good and underlooked game to PC that has great appeal to core gamers is telling though.
It means that they're gauging interest in the IP, and seeing if people want it. Which will decide if we get a sequel or new game in it's style.
>>323928928
>before 4 ruined the franchise
You mean 5, right?
>>323931285
Words cannot express how much I wanted this port but even with its issues I still enjoyed dark arisen on console and remains a good game despite technical faults
>>323931417
It's not really telling of anything other than it was a game popular in foreign markets that was cheap to port (Mt framework) and was most likey an afterthought following dmc4se (DDDA will likely come to ps4/x1 in the future). However if you think capcom is leveraging the sales performance of dark arisen on pc as the determining factor of whether it gets a sequel or not you are a moron. Most likely the game is in pre production already like DMC5 and the game if being re released to keep the ip fresh in consumers minds.
POGGLE 2
>>323931960
Nah, 4 started the decline. It was the peak of the mountain, but everything was shit after because it started the trend of more action oriented RE games.
>>323928928
>before 4 ruined the franchise
Resident Evil players are so shit
>>323931417
Capcom literally said they'll consider making DD2 based on how well the port sells.
>>323931383
To think a trailer for fucking slot game would be more exciting than for most new games
>>323931383
>This could have been an actual game
>>323932209
Not that guy, but that thing is an old trick for making the fans shill game for you
>>323932143
Resident Evil Zero was the last true Resident Evil. Go have shitty opinions somewhere else.
>>323932209
That's what the say about everything, and they never actually follow through with it.
>>323928928
4 was alright, 5 and 6 on the other hand
>>323932209
I'm guessing you intended to reply to >>323932027 and i'll say again, you are a moron if you believe this.
Companies say shut like this all the time hoping to drum up a few extra sales, this port will be lucky to break 200k compared to the console sales http://www.gamespot.com/articles/dragons-dogma-series-sales-reach-23-million-units/1100-6430483/
That's not even a blip on the radar compared to the 2.3mil sales shifted on console, if they are planning a sequel it'll be based off those numbers.
>>323932283
It would just be another Dracula X remakenot that that matters, based Richter is best Belmont [spoiler ]
>>323931960
>>323932085
>4
>peak
RE 4 is completely shit.
>>323928928
>MonHun bigger than ever
Of course, they only have this and SF these days.
>Megaman franchise testing the waters again
It's just a port collection made only of games that are old as hell already and have been in collections with a better selection a bunch of times, this is just called cashing in on fans of a dead franchise.
>DMC 5 hinted at
That would be great if it's actually DMC5.
>Dragon's Dogma on PC with a sequel being considered
DARKSTALKERS IS NOT DEAD
>SFV looks THICK
Dumb move of changing Mika's camera asside, it really loosk great.
>Remasters of classic RE games, before 4 ruined the franchise
Also cashing in on a dead franchise, but at least RE2 is realy a new remaster and not a port of one they did years before. There's also the Raccoon City 2 shit in development, so it's not like they've given up on raping RE.
>>323930715
No, Capcom is the company that kills everything that isn't MH, SF or RE and makes mobile trash.
>I wanted DMC4
Here's your half-finished game!
>I wanted DMC5
Fuck you! Here's reboot!
>How about DMC4SE which will fix some problems?
How about no? Here's just one and a half broken character and that's it.
>W-well, maybe you can make Dragon's Dogma 2?
Sure. Enjoy Dragon's Dogma Online!
>Not exactly what I expected, but well, it's somet-
Only for Japan btw.
>Fucking hell! So how about Dragon's Dogma 2, huh?
We better blow some money on some strange weird hybrid of Souls and DD which will never came out!
>Can you guys at least finish Basara 4 with great 10th anniversary expansion?
Nah, fuck you. Budget will be so tiny so there won't be even new modes.
>I can't fucking believe it! You better make Basara 5 then-
Nope. How about new SB game but with 2 characters instead of 40? Sounds good, huh?
This company is really fucking with me. I love the games but it's like they trying to make every wrong decision possible.
>>323930914
They still have a ways to go, but they're doing good lately.
Yes they're good again. And the tumor known as Inafune is finally gone. Shame Mikami went independent.
>>323928928
Didn't you make this thread last night? Fuck yourself with a rake
Itsuno is their mastermind. The man can do no wrong.
>>323935968
Itsuno is great and I love his games but there's only so much he can do.
>>323928928

>SJW Fighter
Im sure the tumblrfats will all buy SF 5 now that they censored it. Capcom sure makes the best decisions!
Capcom sucks, simple as that.
They have amazing ip's but squander or just shelf them and make all the wrong decisions.
I can't support a company that shits and forgets some of my favorite titles.
DR3, sucked.
LP3, sucked.
EX troopers? Fuck you, Japan onry.
Darkstalkers? Better buy the terrible port of these old games as we hold this ip hostage.
>>323937269
>Platinum/ former Clover will never work with them
Kamiya has no problem with them.
You also forgot Ace Attorney 6 and how it's already confirmed harder m, less hand holdy and more better than DD
Resident Evil 4 is a masterpiece, I'll never understand the hate it gets here.
>>323931172
this desu
>>323928928
Call me back when they genuinely raise Breath of Fire from the dead. None of that mobile shit.
>MonHun bigger than ever
X is a joke compared the to Freedom Unite games
>Megaman franchise testing the waters again
How so? By releasing a nes emulator without any cost?
>DMC 5 hinted at
It's rumored, we still don't know shit.
>Dragon's Dogma on PC with a sequel being considered
I doubt the PC version will sell 2 million copies.
>SFV looks THICK
What?
>Remasters of classic RE games, before 4 ruined the franchise
Yay, remasters! I can't wait to buy the same game again but with 60fps!
>>323937973
I love RE4, but in regards to the previous games in the series it was akin to Nintendo being the ones develop and publish Sonic right after Super Mario Bros. 3 and then go on to make two more Sonic games while calling them Mario.
>>323932815
>Richter
>best Belmont
I think you seriously fuck up spelling Julius
>>323933951
(you)
>>323933951
>RE is completely shit.
Fixed for you
>>323937973
Because the tone changed from slower paced and atmospheric to tense blockbuster with gothic flair.
That said I think REmake, RE2, and RE4 are the series peak. RE4 may not be true survival horror, but it's fun as fuck. It's RE5 and RE6 that dropped the ball by going full action
>>323938525
>Nigga can turn a bible into a huge laser, make it rain holy water, and summons giant crosses from the ground.
>The family whip has him imprinted as the strongest Belmont
Nah, my spelling is fine
>>323933951
How can someone be so wrong?
Capcom games have in general well-crafted gameplay. That's their strong suit.
>>323937269
>>It's been 8 years since the last Devil May Cry, not including the reboot or 4:SE
>>Lost Planet is dead and Inafune killed it
Inafune assumed that being more western would instantly make it better. DmC was a shitshow and he thought LP2 was "too japanese" so it got changed.
>>Megaman in Smash is probably the last we'll ever see of him
He's getting a cartoon next year and more merchandise will probably follow.
>>Capcom Vancouver killed Dead Rising
DR got listed on the report with DMC as one of the franchises they're looking at for this year and beyond and DR3 didn't flop either.
>>Resident Evil is only getting older stuff rereleased because the fanbase is god-awful.
>>Mikami is never coming back
>>Kamiya is never coming back
>>Platinum/ former Clover will never work with them
They really just have to ask. Kamiya isn't holding any grudge and I doubt Mikami is, at least for this long. The guys at clover leaving wasn't nearly as huge of a shitshow as Inafune leaving was.
>>Darkstalkers is dead
>>no more Mahvel or VS. games
The future of their fighters depends on how well SF5 does. VS games aren't exactly off the table and neither is DS if they get Sony to fund that too.
>>Strider is dead
Strider got a game 2 years ago.
Strider 1 came out in 1989 and the sequel didn't come until 1999. There has always been a long wait between Strider games.
>>323937446
EX troopers was a massive flop in japan. There was no way they were going to go back and redo all the art in the game on the off chance that it would do better in america after those sales numbers.
>no Onimusha sequel in sight
>>323940016
>being a dumbass nigger
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-onimusha-trademark-registered-by-capcom/1100-6432687/
>>323940189
Yeah, last time it happened it turned out great, right?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJABYpoq2-4
>>323940189
>no Onimusha sequel in sight
No forgiveness until Dead Rising 1 gets a PC with some improvements carried over from OTR.
>>323939157
>The family whip has him imprinted as the strongest Belmont
You talking about Portrait of Ruin, right?
That one said it was imprinted from the last Belmont, not the strongest.
And even then, Richter wasn't the one who succeeded in the goal of Dracula's death.
And then even then, Soma turned out to be a total bro and became best buds with Julius and Alucard.
Richter's cool, sure, but he wasn't that cool. For fuck's sake, he even got possessed by Shaft. Fucking Shaft, of all people.
>>323940189
Registering trademarks doesn't really mean much, anon. Companies register shit all the time just for liscensing reasons, even if they never release a product with that registered title.
Was MonHun the only franchise that capcom didn't fuck up?I'm not a fan so i don't know
>>323941451
They didn't fuck up Strider.
>>323941451
That and Street Fighter.
>>323941451
Yeah, it's the only one still healthy without heavy casualization or a significative change of the core gameplay.
>>323941451
Did they fuck up Ace Attorney?inb4 apollo memestice
>>323941685
Oh, yea, also Street Fighter.
>>323940591
Shafts a pretty strong dude bro.
But seriously to me there's not much to make Julius better than Richter. Him killing Dracula was mainly due to a prophecy and being around at the right time and in terms of getting to play him he still felt underpowered compared to Richter. Like you say with Richter being cool but not that cool it's the same with Julius, he's cool but again not that because he can get pretty forgettable unless you throw out the "He 'ended' Dracula 's Resurrection cycle" bit. I guess you could say both are neck and neck and it depends on who you prefer more and in my case it's Richter
>>323928928
Have them re-start Megaman Legends III but have a Vita and PS4 release, and then we'll talk.
>>323928928
>>323942116
OH, and almost forgot.
Have them make a new Darkstalkers game on SFV's engine.
They've still got a ways to go to fix their fuckawful decisions.
I haven't given up hope, but I'm not crazy about them like I used to be.
>>323928928
Capcom will never return to their former glory. Their golden years are gone forever. I don't know why the fuck people are still holding onto these guys.
MML3 is never ever.
EX-Troopers in the US or even a sequel is never ever.
Darkstalkers sequel is never ever
MonHun isn't even that hot anymore in terms of the gameplay it offers, I only respect that series on it's monster and armor designs.
These faggots are just delaying the inevitable. They need to kick the bucket already.
>>323932143
RE 4 and after really changed the survival horror aspect to mmmm, action or fps?
>>323928928
>Is Capcom back?
Yeah sure it is. If you play SF, RE, And MonHun with remasters and remakes out the ass on the side. Used to love the fuck out of them back in the day, but to me they killed many good IPs for no fucking reason and I'll never forgive them for killing Vampire Savior with false of a new one to sell the 5th got damn port of the same game with filters.
and I still bought it to show support so fuck off.
>>323928928
This man is why Capcom was shit for a while
>>323942678
Megaman Legends was never good.
Had to look up EX-Troopers on Google.
>Darkstalkers
The jump to 4 and now to Cross made heavy changes to gameplay, the game is honestly better than ever.
>>323944059

Onimusha needs to get some love, even if just for an HD collection.
>>323930376
>memed to go full mobile
Sega didn't go full mobile.
That quarterly where they say "we're focusing on PC and mobile releases" was about what was happening, not future plans. They invest a chunk of change into mobile, not more than even capcom had.
>>323944268
NO. Please no. Can we just stop with the fucking HD ports already?
>>323944678
But there's like 4 games in the franchise, 5 counting the silly fighter. That's enough games for a solid collection.
>>323941751
Yes, Dual Destiny was mediocre as fuck. Taking Shu Takumi out its team was the dumbest choice they could have done.
>>323944130
>Megaman Legends was never good.
No matter how much you it's not going to make it true
>Had to look up EX-Troopers on Google.
That's because you're a moron
>The jump to 4 and now to Cross made heavy changes to gameplay, the game is honestly better than ever.
Literally the only good thing about MonHun at this point is the art design. As a game it's not even worth the grind.
>Breath of Fire 6
how about no
>>323941751
No, all the games have been consistently good. AA5 was one of the weaker entries in the series but it was still solid. AA6 is already looking like an improvement and DGS is supposedly really good.
>>323945871
Capcom didn't take Shu Takumi off the mainline games, he wanted to leave and do his own games. That's why we got Ghost Trick and now DGS.
