What's the problem with grown and mature protagonists on Japan?

Asians are low test and can only identify with children and women

It's Taro autism to release different game on different platform.
Why is Papa Nier's game Gestalt when he was created after Bishie Nier? Shouldn't the titles be reversed?
Because they can't self insert if they are mature adults.
Older, more mature adults in Japan are basically senile old people to kids.
They see age differently. Anything over the age of like 25 or a bit under is basically elderly to them I think.

Literally this.
wasn't it because the brother/sister relationship was seemed as incestuous in the west? while dad/daughter had no sexual undertone implications in the general subconscious?
younger people have room for character growth while "perfect" adults are stiff boards

There was both a Replicant and Gestalt Bro Nier, and a Replicant and Gestalt Papa Nier.
I don't think the choice for the different version titles had much significance.

Nier Gestalt is xbox exclusive in Japan. At the same time Xbox is mainly otaku console in Japan. Maybe Taro was drunk again.

They are not in highschool.

No, I mean the version of the game with bro Nier is titled Nier Replicant, and the version with dad Nier is titled Nier Gestalt. There is no version of Nier Gestalt starring the brother or vice versa.
Japan values youth, where as the West values age and experience. At least in men. In women both countries prefer young women for the most part. It's not good or bad, it's just different cultures appreciating different things.

So Nier Automata doesn't have Nier at all.

People really never stop growing as a person, there is always time and room for change given the right situation.
A thread about the first Nier? Am I dreaming?

Father Nier was created first, but Square Enix wanted a pretty boy design
>>376552774
Father and daughter relationships is prohibited in Japan so they released it on xbox for otaku only.

I do have a problem with "mature" protagonists that act like fucking idiots at least child nier had the excuse of being 10,

>I do have a problem...
Of course you have one
>>376554501
I know. But in-game, there is a Gestalt Bro, and a Gestalt-Papa.
So I'm saying that naming one version Gestalt over the other was probably random.

It's all a dream.
