Why do so many people hate Capcom again? Yeah they fucked up in the past but they're mostly tying to fix things, they released DMC4 Special Edition and are remaking RE2, SFV is shaping up to be great, they're bringing Dragon's Dogma to PC and Monster Hunter is better than ever. Outside of Mega Man I can't think of another franchise Capcom is shitting up with recently.
Not gonna let these motherfuckers burn me again. All of my favorite games are either dead or have gone to shit.
They are EA, nickel and dime'ing their fan base. I think when they decided to milk previous releases and killed off IP's is when they died.
>>322615463
Why is the newest Breath of Fire mobile shit?
Mega Man is their mascot series.

No, that's obviously Street Fighter.
>>322615463
Hating Capcom is a meme at this point.
They fuck up a lot but they do seem to want to try.
I'd say they're the best of the AA game studios but that does not mean you should trust them, it's a better idea to look at the teams behind each game.
>>322615463
They also ruin the AA saga.

It's not gameplay, it's not levels, it's not even a fun alternate mode or character.

4SE came out and sold well, we're basically getting DMC5 due to Dante's VA talking about it, while NT's version flopped.
>>322615463
So their fixing things by reselling titles i already own.
Huh.
>>322618265
That's not what I said but ok.
That Mega Man Legacy Collection for 3ds they are releasing soon had me laughing my ass off when it was announced. I just could not bring myself to really expect more from them.
>>322618845
The Legacy Collection is literally an emulation running the games, there's nothing more to that.
>>322618948
You just forgot to mention one is running on the 3DS and the other on PC.
>>322618571

Are they not allowed to make a low budget multiplayer spin off? Remember that their focus will be on the RE2 remake.

True, not everyone is 100% a dick I guess.
Mega Man autists need to learn to let go.
>>322619865

You would too if your favorite character was X and his series got hijacked by Zero.

Fuck Crapcom
>>322620149
SF4 did not have on disc DLC and as mentioned in the thread, DMC is most probably coming back.
>>322620194
Cyberbots wasn't very popular so it died.
Even Rival Schools fans have a more solid base for complaints.
And it's more like Darkstalkers had a lot of its mechanics merged into SF proper.
>>322620302
They didn't censor the ass, just the butt slap animation.
>>322620324
>>322620224
SF4 was also 7 years ago so counting that as part of Capcom's recent actions is silly.
Regardless, no on disc DLC.

Name a publisher better than Capcom right now. You can't. They got SFV, MHX, Dragon's Dogma PC and Resident Evil which is more than most publishers have these days. They fucked up by trying to westernize their IPs but they've wisened up on that front.

Thank good we never stopped reaching for that one. DMC5 actually has a good chance at happening, especially with Capcom nominating it as a flagship series alongside Street Fighter and Resident Evil.

Objectively better than Capcom because the new CEO knows his shit.
So I'd say those publishers are less, equal and one being superior to Capcom. No publisher has that same gameplay feel Capcom games do. I don't know how the fuck they do it but Capcom games have distinct touch to their gameplay that you don't see with other publishers.

Nah, metacritic scores are completely fine, it's just that you faggots can't handle your game is shit. For example Guilty Gear Xrd metascore is 84.
They cut off the opening and ending of Dead Rising 2 and sold them as separate games.
>>322622438
>DoA5 is a fine game

Off the Record was supposed to be the opening and ending for DR2? That doesn't make any sense.

>>322622620

>>322622620
Metacritic is a fucking joke since it consists of dumbass bloggers trying to make favors for their friends in the business while shitting on games for not being SJW enough. MKX has fucking 86 on metacritic, more than both Xrd and DoA5. MKX doesn't even fucking work online.
>>322622859
Tournament play usually reflects game popularity. Smash isn't a competitive game yet is huge in tournaments because it's popular.
>>322622068
In that case, Atelier Ayesha, Genghis Khan 2, Fatal Frame 2, Gitaroo Man, Kessen 1 and 2, Tecmo Bowl, Uncharted Waters.

>>322623284
>So you're telling me some random anonymous poster on /v/'s opinion is more valid than a database of average critic reviews?
Yes. The general consensus on /v/ is far more reliable than Metacritic that reviews the amount of marketing money a game got.

I'm still very on the fence with Capcom.
Admittedly as of late it has looked gradually better for them but I can't agree with your point on DMC4SE.

Women have no depth to them but props anyway for Itsuno adding them while being just barely outside his budget
On the other hand, even though they don't localize it, I'm very happy with Sengoku Basara 4 Sumeragi. Sengoku Basara for the most part is one of those series that gradually improves with every addition to its franchise, and Sumeragi's combat stands on top of the whole series very impressively thus far.
>>322623284
>opinion is more valid than a database of average critic reviews
No, neither are valid. Do you really hold the opinions of casual morons so highly? Not to mention the reality of bought review scores though ad revenue? Come on man.
Take The Wonderful 101 for example, are you really going to take the opinion of some reviewer who couldn't even get passed the first puzzle over someone on /v/ who played the game extensively. Reviews are worthless.
>>322622297

If you're gonna follow Metacritic, at least look at the User Score too.

Most complaints about RE6 were towards the story, most people agreed the gameplay in the game was the best part of it. In the case of RE2 remake they already got the story done, they only need to focus on the gameplay, I don't think there's a chance they'll fuck it up.
>remakes
>re-releases
Wow look at all that NOTHING. Capcom is creatively bankrupt and not worth giving a shit about.
>>322623518
>>All those resources in the DMC department are spent on the DmC DE, the already finished and lesser appreciated product, instead of finishing up what a hot unfinished mess 4 was
It's pretty obvious that Capcom gave no shit about the DmC DE and let all the money go into DMC4:SE. They didn't even add anything to DmC.
Not to mention, Capcom is doing the right things with Ace Attorney, anon.
But looking at it what Capcom needs is another person who can give them something original. That's what Capcom desperately needs these days. Creative idea men.
Can people fuck off with how DmC and RE6 killed the franchises already?
Capcom is planning a new DMC by the end of the 2017 financial year in their earnings report and the DMC actors have been dropping tons of hints about it. Fucking REmake 2 is happening after 15 years as well.
I'm not even going to sit here and shill for Capcom regarding "how fucking great they are". They have a lot of catching up to do. But people need to fucking get their facts straight. I wish Capcom could be great again, hell I wish all vidya companies could be great. So if a company makes a good fucking game, I'll support them, I'll not support them if they make a bad one, not because " OH MY GOD YOU BETRAYED ME HOW COULD YOU I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS MISTER COMPANY" but because each product should be treated individually and judged on its own merits.
I seriously can't understand why people go and make it personal or treat companies like they're your friend. They're a company, they exist to make profits.
>>322622756
Case Zero and Case West. Case Zero takes place right after Katey gets infected and sets up DR2 and Case West takes place right after its A ending (which the devs said is canon) and has Chuck and Frank raid a Phenotrans facility.
>>322624035
Never heard of those and search on Steam came up with nothing besides DR2 and Off the Record. Are you sure those aren't DLC or something?
>>322623808
What the hell are you talking about? They reworked the aggressiveness for all the enemies. Granted DE at base due to stupid design choices is an uninspired, forgettable casual fest as it is even with all its changes but you're blind if you think more resources were pulled into 4SE.
A half baked character with a couple of quarter baked ones isn't exactly comparable to changing the entire interface of gameplay. It doesn't matter if stuff like GMD isn't new, you can't deny by the sheer quantity alone what they pulled by comparison.
In short, they took in a large basket-full of the complaints for DmC, then made attempt to fix them. They only heard "Vergil pls" for 4SE and gave us Trish and Lady, albeit lazily developed, as bonuses. 4SE still might as well be at that 40% mark, but DmC is at about twice what it was originally.
>>322615463
>Monster Hunter is better than ever
MHX has the worst balance of any game.
>>322624224
They're Xbox live Arcade exclusive.
>>322624227
If they expected DmC DE to sell more than DMC4 SE why didn't they brought that over to PC aswell then? Maybe it was just a case of managing to do more with a smaller budget, I mean Itsuno himself was involved with DMC4SE, and DmC DE was handled by NT or another thid party company.
>>322622859
They do though.
It's actually a pretty cool watch, one of the few 3d fighters I can enjoy. (That still gets entrants)
>Capcom is planning a new DMC by the end of the 2017 financial year in their earnings report and the DMC actors have been dropping tons of hints about it.
Honestly speaking I think this is just going to backfire. If recent performances on the DMC front mean anything, Itsuno needs to buffen up his game a little, before him or anyone else at Capcom make any potentially huge mistakes that cost DMC either on the story or gameplay front.
A new DMC is a step in the right direction but they need to constantly be going that right direction, not just trying to look at it, taking a step there, then saying "well I guess we went good enough."
>>322624445
>If they expected DmC DE to sell more than DMC4 SE why didn't they brought that over to PC aswell then?
No clue. Maybe they were planning a later release for DE depending on its reception. The original game IIRC didn't have a PC version announced immediately either. I'm not entirely sure on the version of Unreal they used or its circumstances, but MT Framework is a PC Native engine so that might have made things simpler for the end of porting 4SE.
That said the point isn't that they expected one to sell more than the other. You can't always pinpoint this kinda stuff perfectly with companies, especially since we can't forget Capcom actually expected 5 million for DmC vanilla. The point is they clearly put more content into DE by quantity alone.
>>322624598
Capcom is happy with DMC4SE, at least that is something.

Coming from somebody who has about 200 hours in DmC and 500 in DMC4 I got to admit I am pretty disappointed with Vergil in DMC4SE
I get what they were going for, he's super powerful if you play well, but he gets a lot of punish for fuck ups. But he is still way too powerful, he feels like playing DmC, its like autopilot. He has the accessibility of Nero with the range and power of Dante without any skill. Vergil's teleports and infinite airs makes it seriously feel like DmC. With Dante you feel more in control and its much more rewarding. It's pretty disappointing.

They get shit scores because of retards like you who keeps buying western trash and thinking it's good.
>>322627439
Yakuza are thankfully dying m8. Japan is a joke though, and a puppet for the US. Gone are the good old days where they made fun games.
>>322627801
Oh the irony.
>>322627612
Japan never catered to the West. The West hardly had a gaming industry after Atari went bust. It really wasn't until the graphical leap of the 360 and PS3 that Western devs got the limelight. Because people in the West prefer a game to have "good graphics" over a good aesthetic or well thought out and implemented mechanics.
This is why Western games over the last 10 years have gotten easier and easier. They're made for stupid Americans who gawk and gaze at the pwetty gwaphix.
>>322615463
I don't know if this is an attempt at PR from capcom, ironic shitposting, or just some young dumb anon but capcom is shit and you should feel like shit.
>>322627801
>buys eastern trash and calls others retards
Seems like you got some re-evaluating to do with your life.
>>322627754
Okami was already a whole trilogy in the one game though. Where is my God Hand sequel with both hands? Resulting in double the moves and switching between two movesets at once on the fly! Because I NEED IT BAD!
>>322628073
The reason vidya as whole became shittier is because the medium reached a larger base of users. Everyone knew that they had to dumb down their games, thats why so many opted for consoles, because of the limited control scheme and hardware, so they could half-ass they games.
Japan did cater to the west with Final Fantasy (some of the best games in the series) and loads of other fun titles for the fifth gen. Now they are a joke and big studios are closing shop left and right.
>>322628156
I don't know why you're upset that not every Japanese game is Skyrim or Dragon Age. The world doesn't revolve around you.
>>322628502
>Japan did cater to the west with Final Fantasy
>this is what self-centered Americans actually believe
>>322628073
I feel like it was partly due to the 360 selling so well in every place but japan. Western devs loved it while the brand is shit in the east.
Meanwhile the PS3 was a pain in the ass to program for and the lowest price was $500 when it came out, and a lot of people just didn't have that kind of money. So they decided to hang back and stick with the PS2 for a little while longer
>>322628545
As I said, you need to re-evaluate your life, because now you are just backpedaling in a useless argument because you know deep inside that you are wrong.
>>322628652
They did cater less to permavirgins and otakus at the time. Which is opposite of western values. I'm sorry you have got the wrong idea. Also I'm not your american boogeyman.
>>322625054
>Capcom is happy with DMC4SE
I would be too if I was in Capcom. The game is done so they can add the new features using a skeleton crew so every dollar made is just free money for them.
>>322628502
>all of Japan made final fantasy
Square made Final Fantasy, and they didn't start making the games easy until FF7. It doesn't help your case that Final Fantasy is really the only easy franchise that they have.
They're closing shop because in Japan nobody but lonely NEETs buy video games and other "nerdy" crap. And they only buy the shit with the 8-12 year old girls in them because they have the minds of children and are thusly attracted to children.
Another thing that bit japanese devs in the ass is the fact that they don't have large budgets for advertising like the western devs do.
They can't hype up a game like EA or Ubisoft because they just don't have the cash for it. If they did then it's possible that the playing field might be a bit more even.
>>322627439
They're probably the ones who made it happen in the first place. The taxes and shit on pachinko testing and registration decrease profit margins and force smaller companies who actually rely on it to survive out of the business. This is not even a new development, it's been going on for the past several years. SNK was on the verge of death, got bought out by the Chinese, and then literally had to choose between making a pachinko machine or one console/PC game. Meanwhile big guys like Capcom, Konami, Square Enix, and Sega get hurt a little, but can bide their time and bounce back eventually.
But contrary to popular belief, Konami doesn't actually give a fuck about pachinko right now. Pachinko profits have been shrinking for years and they're more aware of it than anyone here. Only the people on /v/ who have no idea of what's going are surprised by this, or think Konami is surprised by this.
>>322620059
>lost planet was niche in Japan

>call it lost planet for unknown reasons
>make it Japan only.
Sometimes Capcom confuses me.
>>322629068
>And they only buy the shit with the 8-12 year old girls in them because they have the minds of children and are thusly attracted to children.
Japan really needs a cultural revolution to break bonds with the child sex glorification they have going on. I feel bad for them, but I hope they will persevere.
>>322629176
Plus they lack the technical knowhow nowadays. Even the Fox Engine was designed by a french guy.
>>322629739
>>lost planet was niche in Japan
Last time I checked Lost Planet 2 was very popular in Japan. You can even find recent videos of japanese people playing the multiplayer.
Will Japan ever become big on the videogame scene again?
>>322629748
>Japan really needs a cultural revolution to break bonds with the child sex glorification they have going on.
Its what happens when we let capitalism exploit a mental disorder.
People who are attracted to children are that way because they were either touched at a young age themselves or they have the mentality of a child, a literal man-child. The problem lies with the lack of solutions and help for those that suffer and it being treated as a crime rather than a mental disorder that needs help. In Japan the anime and game companies today just exploit them to make a good chunk of their profits. Its not like these people realize that they're being exploited either, because most of them are mentally children and on the dole. They don't work for their money and thus have no value for it other than to spend it on things that attract them.
Its fucking disgusting and will take a lot more than a cultural revolution to change.
>>322630431
They would need to have marketing twice the price of the game development.
>>322630572
Even worse people with mental disorders in the west are looking up to this abuse, as evident on this site as well.
Thanks for the well thought out input.
>>322627593
I'm just dying to see this blow up in their face.
>>322627358
Vesperia is good though. I agree about dd, can't wait to play a playable version.

An engine isn't "designed" by one guy you fucking nigger
>>322633093
Just ate a glorious meal, and all I can do is laugh at how wrong you are.
DMC4 fucking suck fuck this game
>>322630431
Japan would need to dedicate more money to marketing than actual game development, like the West.
>>322633381
Not to mention that that guy joined Konami after the first Fox Engine game came out. People are so quick to assign all the credit to one person it's ridiculous
>>322633541
They are hardly dedicating any money to creating games as is.
>manages to lose REmake assets
>doesn't lose RE0 assets
Wtf Capcom?
>>322615463
They did a nice turn back. SE did it too. Lets see if they fuck it with FFXV and VII remake. They will probably do...
>>322634857
>manages to lose REmake assets
They never said that, people just assumed that was the case because of the blurred backgrounds. Keep in mind RE0 was released after REmake, so it's natural that it would have assets with higher quality and texture resolution.
>>322635009
>Lets see if they fuck it with FFXV and VII remake.
Wrong company, pal.
They continuously tease us about a new Darkstalkers game but never follow through with actually making one. Meanwhile they keep giving it awful representation in crossovers that just drag the series' image through the mud.
>>322621975
That sounds a bit too optimistic to me. It's much more likely that they'll just make more Street Fighter, or another milquetoast grab-bag "try to please everyone" crossover.

That was only Revelations 2 and even then it wasn't that bad.
>>most of the SFV roster is behind a DLC paywall
6 characters and they're free if you play matches
>>literally held a capcom steam sale solely for DLC
so the fuck what?
>>RE6 ruined the franchise
Then how did revelations 2 come out and manage to be better in tone than it
>>letting all of their old IP's die
everyone does this shit, Capcom isn't special in this department.
>>322638823
you have the option of paying for a character with real money, getting the season pass, or grinding it out and getting in game currency in fights to get them.
>>322638823
Why does it matter though? When you play a fighting game you pick one character and stick with it, otherwise you'll never be good. Having all possible characters to choose from whenever you feel like sounds like a total waste because most of the time you'll not be playing as more than 3 characters.
>>322636040
>That sounds a bit too optimistic to me.
Guess i'll just continue to be optimistic about it then.
>>322637054
>SA2 is a capcom game

You can apparently unlock them if you play good, but you can just pay to have them from the start, as well.

Good, that jap bastard ruined a good company and they have been scrambling ever since.
DMC5 on the way, DD PC edition in a few weeks, DMC4SE. Deep down and a few other games on the horizon. REHD releases(I mean they are alright) They are turning it around slowly after that shitstain took all their IP's and decimated them.
A very stupid moment where they sued Koei on the Warriors expansions like XL and Empires because they apparantly claim to own the patent for expansion packs or some shit like that.
>>322639529
Also Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate got the full bundle.
>>322619505
>That damage control when they spill the beans
Poor Ruben, having to PR that shit.
>>322639597
And on that note:
Saw the trailer and details for the new Basara.
Only Yukimura and Masamune as playable it seems.
Story is all about Yukimura.
Notes mention that the characters will be more historically based. So it sounds like its less zany and less of everything that makes Basara different from Samurai Warriors.
Um, thanks?
>>322620573
sjw spotted
Basically when they cancelled Mega Man Legends 3 and dropped an update fro MvC3 several months after the vanilla release it became a meme to hate them. They made some poor decisions and cancelled some projects but now even when they do shit they've been doing since inception, like regularly updating Street Fighter, /v/ shits themselves.
Unless they port some ten year old game to PC, then they're saving gaming apparently.
>>322615463
Let's put it like that, OP. Maybe you will finally understand how do I feel about Capcom in this moment.
Capcom used to be great in their arcade era. Do you remember their beat'em ups from the 90s? Final Fight, Alien VS Predator? Do you remember their actually good fighting games? Street Fighter 2 Turbo, Third Strike? Do you remember their great games from the PSX and PS2 era? Sure, there are some bad apples that were (likely?) forgotten, such as that Final Fight spin-off from the PS2, but they did tons of great games such as the Devil May Cry series (except the second one, of course) and Resident Evil 4. She was great.
And let's not forget about Megaman. Capcom's mascot they totally forget it still exists unless we are talking about some cameos and appearances in other games that have little to do with the franchise itself.
Capcom today is just a living zombie. Sure, they make some good games sometimes, USFIV wasn't that bad (even though it doesn't live to the high picks that were ST and 3S), DMC4 had a solid gameplay despite the fact it was short as fuck and they had to reharsh part of it content for a second freaking time because they noticed they were developing a short as fuck game too late. Let's ignore Monster Hunter which is the only actual Capcom IP that still sells well in every fucking place of the world.
What is it doing now? Another SF, okay. Then? Deep Down is basically vaporware at this point. They announced a new shitty, forgettable Resident Evil spin-off with Call of Duty-esque perks. They did Dead Rising 3, which I consider one of the most bland IPs they ever developed.
Where is the greatness that made Capcom (pun intended) great? Why does every project, even SFV itself, feels like a desperate attempt to bring back some of the enjoyment Capcom games once had? Capcom is living in a pathethic but sincerely sad "I'm sorry" state and it will never be great again.
>>322619018
>>322619082
so? this just makes the 3DS version even worse
Because they literally needed to get their shit kicked in to start caring. They're going to try and pull this shit on us again and we know it.
>>322643245
he's trying to compare a 3DS game to a PC game. Why would a 3DS game have better looking graphics than a PC when it's nowhere near as powerful?
They fucked up their reputation last gen, its going to take them a while to get it back. But at least they are trying this time around.
>>322643136
Capcom was literally the 3rd Party King up until 7th gen
Because we will never get a conclusion to both Mega Man Legends' and ZX's stories, among other things that were shitted on or forgotten by Capcom.
Fuck Capcom.
Also, I'd like to use this post to send Inafune an even bigger fuck you, you greedy hack.
Most of my favourite games are by Capcom.
They're getting better.
Just like EA, Capcom's reputation ebs and flows.
They're still shit right now though.
1. They made DmC, NEVER forget.
2. Dragon's Dogma was meant to be a franchise.
3. Deep Down is exclusive
>>322646165
they didn't really "make" DmC
they just allowed Ninja Theory to ruin it
I don't find negligence akin to malicious intent
If I have a decent PC and want to get into DMC, what games should I get ?
>>322648114
That's actually tricky question.
DMC3 PC port is an ass and for years it was better just to emulate it, but apparently latest version of Style Switcher mod made it more playable (performance wise).
What about this analogy?
Hitler is responsible for the killing of about 6 million people. Yeah he fucked up in the past but he's mostly trying to fix things like relasing brand new roads the high way is better than ever. Outside of genocide I can't think of another franchise Neonazis are shitting with recently.
Conclusion: The "done" in "U done goofed" or whatever that shit quote was is there for a reason.
Also, first one to Godwin. Not that it matters though.
Or maybe I got it all wrong and you asked us to remind you again why so many people hate Capcom.
>>322649245
What about the first 2 DMCs ?
Is the story interesting at all or it's just all about hack and slash ?

>>322641617
yea well dont forget the on disc dlc for sfxt not to mention how fucking broken it was on release to the point that the fgc wont even touch it even though the fixed the major problems. And dont forget the whole dmc thing and even though 5 is garunteed now dont think they wouldnt have dropped it in a heartbeat if dmc4se didnt sell which they flat out said. Im not much of an RE fan but people seemed to hate 5 and 6 plus all those other spin offs point is they have done something is the past 5 years to piss off the fanbase of pretty much all their franchises except maybe monster hunter so yea its not a meme to hate them its just if you play any of their games they probably fucked you at one point
>>322648114
>>322649892
definitely pick up dmc4se its the most polished gameplay wise imo and you dont need to play the others games to understand it. The story for the rest are pretty good you could try emulating them but its pretty cheap to pick up a ps3 and the collection
>>322649892
It would be the best choice to start with DMC1. Great and unique game. Coming back from 3 or 4 to first game could be little painful.
2nd game doesn't exist. You might completely ignore it.
