I hope Capcom one day at a staff meeting has a long think about what they're doing to their franchises. How could a great company go so wrong? When you saw the logo years ago you knew you were in for a good game, but now-a-days you're skeptical about what you're about to play.

That's true. Their quality has dropped. I personally think it's gonna keep going on because of the fact that they haven't been bringing in as much revenue as they used to. Plus questionable choices on the directions they take their series in (Resident Evil, Devil May Cry.) Maybe they need the right people to start making decisions? It seems like forever ago when we were getting games like RE4, DMC 3, Okami, God Hand, Viewtiful Joe.
That report about the new development cycle they're gonna start using makes me think things aren't going to get any better soon.

I think the ship is going to keep on sailing to be honest, money speaks louder than peoples opinions. I heard they fixed some issues with RE6 due to feedback, but that still didn't make it feel like RE4.
That's a good example of a modernized game. 5 & 6 not so much. Reminds me, didn't know us 'western' folk find swearing and edginess more appealing. Even my mum commented on DmC looking different and 'not' right when I played the demo (she's played the first game) if a 40 year old person who doesn't really play games knows something's off about what she's seeing then surely that means something isn't right. |

They're trying too hard to appeal to western audiences. Forgetting what made the titles work and desperately trying new things. I'm all for trying to branch out and trying new things to appeal to a new audience but don't forget about what made your previous games unique and good.

Though considering how consoles are going in Japan (Vita 6th week >> Wii U's 6th week... L O L) you can see why Capcom console games are now more aimed at western markets... They have pretty much got one of the biggest handheld guns in Japan with Monster Hunter anyway...

@Westlo True, and they should try new things but just don't forget what works for their established IPs Essentially kinda like what they did with Resident Evil 4. Tried new things but also looked at what worked in the past and kept those elements

I say DmC crapped because no one cares about the series in capcom anymore. They could farm it out to someone who does. Honestly, judging from initial designs, I think Ninja Theory did, then Capcom told them "NO". then fanbase backlash and the whole crew were stuck in a hard place. So they were like "Whatever, let's just pump out whatever and slap on DmC name on it.".
Lock-on is definitely a casual gamer's must. Why they remove it and expect to get casual gamers is very mind bending. How many games can you count to be easy to aim with without lock-on? @_@ |

what's sadder is that Inafune said that when he wanted to get western devs, he said that his work will always be for the enjoyment of Japanese gamers as well. It seemed DmC lost this kind of thinking and just went with western devs = western audience.

That is sad. When Capcom was making quality games they appealed to different types of audiences. Now they're alienating an established fanbase by trying to appeal to a new crowd without having much for established fans.
So far the sales and fan reception that DmC is getting is proof that this was a bad move.
