Moar ports. This generation is the worst.

[kupomogli]

I really fail to see how the existence of these ports offends you. There is no zero-sum game going on here. This isn't the days when Nintendo would limit publishers to five releases a year. A publisher can release as many games as they please, within their own financial and manpower limitations. If you don't like ports, don't buy them. Vote with your wallet and support the kinds of games you do want and don't support the ones you don't want. There are probably more games being released this generation than any prior, and there are certainly more brand-new games coming out than I could ever possibly keep up with.

I don't give a shit about the whole gatekeeping bullshit that people like to claim, I want to actually play some new shit and these ports are stopping new games from being developed.

We're probably going to go the ENTIRE generation without seeing one new Naughty Dog game because again, ports and the cancelled The Last of Us multiplayer.

Another great example is NIS. Aside from Disgaea 6 and Disgaea 7, they haven't developed anything new for a long time. Everything they've released has been ports. I can already play this, people in general can emulate or play these games somehow. Just because everyone else hasn't played these games, they still have the opportunity to play these games.

It's not about not buying anything, I definitely won't buy anything I have no interested in, it's about actually having some shit to play outside of indie games from a large amount of developers and publishers. But instead, no, new games? Fuck that shit, we're just going to release old shit because we're creatively bankrupt and modern gaming is the garbage fire of gaming.

Anyways, done with the rant. While I'm waiting for Ys 10 I guess I'll play this Romancing SaGa 2 remake, a remake, because again creatively bankrupt developers.
