We all agree that western games have been complete trash this gen, but what could actually be done to improve them?

Japan has always had the edge in game development, but things haven't been this bad since the '80s. How do we save the west, /v/? Do you think we'll see western games by big publishers that aren't designed by committee or that actually take risks or that only target a small niche ever again?

Japanese games typically have one guy in charge so they can be horrifically bad if that guy is a hack or masterpieces if he's a genius.

Western games are all made by huge committees and so never turn out unplayably bad, but also lack the singular vision required to be better than an 8/10.

3D World is the most fun co-op experience of all time. The single player is lacking because many of the decisions seem to have been made with this special hybrid-brand of competitive/co-op in mind, but the co-op experience is so mind-blowingly good it makes up for it.

Tsubasa's game is pretty good, you shitter.
Idolshit is the only bad thing. Dungeon crawling and battles are fantastic.

Oh shit, you're right. I should add that and P4AU

Witcher 3 was good. Still missing a ton of games on the left. West is getting btfo by Japan so far to be sure.

This is the most accurate answer. AAA western games have stagnated for the last couple of years and rarely rise above mediocrity. While they look pretty and are decent enough gameplay wise, most western games lack the heart and soul you see put into nip games.
