    I wholeheartedly agree with this video. Well said. I have actually always preferred Japanese/Eastern games over Western games because I think they are more imaginative, fun, stylish and polished.
    Western companies seemingly only care about diversity, politics, checklists and have no problem releasing broken, janky games that will hopefully be fixed later. Games like Elden Ring, Zelda TOTK, SF6, FF16, etc function well at launch and are polished.
    What really worries me unfortunately is the fact it seems like everyone worldwide is chasing after Western trends and ideologies and it’s even affecting some Japanese companies(Capcom, Tecmo, etc). Hope, the pursuit for Western appeal will die out because imo it’s destroying gaming, but I have my doubts sadly because the Western market is still huge.

      I hope the pursuit for the western audience dies down too because I don't want Eastern games trying to be like Western games, it will lose it's appeal and identity.
      I think one problem is Eastern studios having an ethics department, it's not needed and will result in more censorship and force developers to alter their vision and creativity to better match Western studios.

      That last paragraph is true, it got me worried as well. I love capcom but they've been low key following the western politics. Like RE3 remake for example, you know how cringe and unlikeable Jill is as a character?.
      Also the whole "body type" option in character creation. I know it's not much, but this is my point. Instead of naming it "gender options" And give us male or female, they gotta go with body type A or B.
      Man i really hope the Japanese woke up one day and realize they gotta respect their own value instead of catering to the west. I know Japanese are very strict in upholding their values, i just hope it applies to video games.

Li mei, mileena, tanya... they look damn watered down version of their past self. Kitana so far has been the only good looking ones that too in recent outworld trailer she looked really bad.
      Thing is deseggsualizing is not a problem but uglifying them is. Western developers are these days very allergic to produce good looking characters particularly woman.

    I am currently replaying Yakuza 7 for the third time, this time on the PS5 I had acquired after I got out of hospital at the end of May from a nasty epileptic seizure whilst I was playing FFXIV and I just spotted your video here, so I absolutely savoured this one.
    Throughout my childhood during the Noughties, I generally played first-person shooters (007: Nightfire, MoH: Rising Sun), GTA games, every Driver game, Choro Q HG games, NFS Carbon and anything like that, but since I reached my twenties, I've been wanting to play RPGs and what I started with was Okami and Tales of Berseria and those were the starting points of what made not just Japanese, but Eastern RPGs so majestic when you want to examine any aspect of creativity. MMORPGs are alright to spend your time on, but even when I have a favourite one like Final Fantasy XIV, it can keep me away from going back to any of my cherished base games like GreedFall, Nier: Automata, Tales of Vesperia, Tales of Arise, Code Vein and hypothetically* Hogwarts Legacy.
    * I say hypothetically, because since I _did_ buy the game from CeX along with Destroy All Humans! 2 Reprobed, I have not yet started playing it even after installing it on my PS5.
    As for Western game developers that chose their investors over their customers for the long time coming in this decade, no love lost for them.
    If I have to give my personal lowbrow take towards gaming fests like that summer one for this year, there is no other game except for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth that I'll waste tens of quid on, even if they're on 70% discount sale at PS Store.

    Growing up, I never thought of a game coming from the west till morrowind on Xbox. I never played anything that wasn't JP (That I knew of) and from morrowind on, I never cared about anything other then "did I enjoy it". GTA3 was my 2nd non JP game that I knew for sure wasn't JP, but to be fair, I thought it was pure american and not brit.
    Thinking about it now... I've really not played alot of "western" games till recently as I lost all interest in JP games.

    Eastern games are unfortunately following the west like Capcom, Square Enix, and Koei Techmo with ESG. I saw that Like a Dragon Ishin! censored the bath fighting scene by adding more steam covering the backside. But overall, they tend to be decent. I'm still looking forward to LAD Gaiden and Infinite wealth. RGG is still decent but I'm wary of them as well. At least they're not as egregious as the others and I hope they stay that way.

      Yeah, sadly a few Eastern studios have gotten involved with ESG and are trying to appeal to the west, even though we enjoy Eastern games because of how different they are compared to Western games.
      I hope RGG doesn't get too deep into ESG and try to westernize their games, it took them a while for Yakuza to get to where it is now and it was because of fans who enjoyed the series for what it was.
