These numbers explain why Koei Tecmo isn’t prioritizing more Ninja Gaiden games. 7.5M puts the series near the bottom of their catalog, and the fanbase is hopelessly divided—veterans who love the games too much to criticize them, versus Itagaki diehards who only support the OGs. We’re a mess.
Koei Tecmo Series Sales Numbers! • Dynasty Warriors - 24M • Nobunaga’s Ambition - 11M • Dead or Alive - 11M • Romance of the Three Kingdoms - 9.5M • Samurai Warriors - 8.5M • Nioh - 10M • Atelier - 8M • Ninja Gaiden - 7.5M • Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty - 8M* (*users)

Mushoku Tensei has reached the heights of popularity as Frieren. However Official Sources would say you're a "Pedo" for watching it. This is a huge victory for anime fans, showing we don't want sanitized anime. The tourists are upset about this news youtu.be/Ii4sHVou1qc

Finally after 18 years I finished original Ninja Gaiden 2 on master ninja difficulty. And I got the beautiful gold outfit for Ryu Hayabusa.

This is a major reason your store can’t compete with Steam. Who trusts a CEO that calls basic transparency a “hate campaign” and equates it to forced political essays? Only fanatics. The rest of us avoid Epic because you treat consumers like children who can’t handle knowing what’s in the games they buy. Steam doesn’t.
There is a real economic cost to Valve’s foray into forced political disclosures. Besides taking 30%, they’re also taking a potentially even larger fraction of developers’ revenue and livelihood by undermining their business with these AI hate campaigns.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Steam requires disclosure of generative AI for player-consumed content via its standard Content Survey (alongside ratings), shown on store pages for transparency, not as political statements. Steam's base 30% revenue share matches major console platforms. partner.steamgames.com/doc/gettingsta… eurogamer.net/steam-revises-…

if the developer cannot make the player love his game even if its using AI, then that's developer fault, i am game developer and i vote to keep the AI statement there, because it doesn't matter for me.

chinese devs will spend 6 months perfecting ass physics and somehow still make a better game than western studios with a $500 million budget.

Replying to @ChibiReviews
Puritanism is ALWAYS violent, no matter what form it takes. Punishing those who defy the will of Go-, I mean "sexually exploit women & girls" (transphobic dog whistle by the way) goes hand in hand with Puritanism. Witch Hunts were the original cancel/consequence culture.

Bro don’t drag Metroid into shitty Castlevania design.
the absolute worse design trend hollow knight inspired is indie metroidvanias never ever letting you feel "overpowered" or fully outscale the enemies when that's supposed to be a core appeal of IGAvanias and 2d metroid

Agree with some of what PandaKingEX is saying here. I have yet to play a boss fight where color-coded attack mechanics, posture systems, or stamina bars actually added to the fun. As for parries, only Metal Gear Rising has handled them in a way that felt positive. Most others disrupt the flow and turn the fight into a chore — the only rewarding part ends up being the pure challenge, not the fun itself, which I care about more.
People had great appreciation for boss fights before they became progressively worse in modern gaming. Boring boss mechanics, ignoring hitstun, color coded attack mechanics, RPG mechanic influence, posture, stamina, parry, etc.

The entire statement is disingenuous. Some bosses suck. That doesn’t make “a lot of games would be way better without boss fights” a real take. You only say that if you wouldn’t have been a gamer before it went mainstream.
having the sad realization alot of games would be way better without boss fights
