>entire fighter concept is overhauled to be an arena fighter like Dissidia or Anarachy Reigns now
>my fucking original concept has officially become weeb shit

Is there anyway at I can sabotage this fucking project, it pisses me off my cool and unique idea got turned into some faggy jap shit, I wanna see this shit crash and burn. People don't like anime themed arena fighters right? What did Platinum do to cause Anarchy Reigns to sell so poorly, maybe I can get these assholes to make the same mistakes and ruin this shit.

Sorry ideas guy, you can't code so you can't contribute shit beyond your oh so original idea.
Maybe take a computer language course so you can build your vision next time.

Sounds cool, I'll be on the lookout for when it releases so I can buy it.

>>386104183
But the other idea guys can't code either, so why the fuck do they get to overrule me? I did NOT want some weeb arena fighter shit. I wanted it to be a real dark and gritty game and very realistic. This team said its still very dark, but come on its fucking anime shit. Look at thi design I described, that sound fucking dark and gritty to you?

Commercially successful ideas are extremely rare and sought after. The thing is, once you actually give it up, you become expendable to the project.

THe only way a pure ideas guy can make it in the industry, is to have a long history of commercially successful games behind them, so you can point to that when someone will invariably challenge your "vision". Otherwise, you need to either code yourself or be holding the purse strings. In which case, anyone one else brought on to the project knows their place immediately.

I like these threads. Usually the idea is same, but ideas are varied, so it isn't a stale pasta and I find it really funny to see what anon things as a "cool sounding idea that /v/ will totally buy" and how he turns it into something that should trigger /v/.
Lots of creativity goes into this bait and such things should be rewarded.

Only ideas that can be considered "commercially successful" are those that have already been tried and been found successful. Ideas on their own hold no value.

I know it's not real, and yet thar's something I've seen. Original idea gets introduced to a group which then changes beyond recognition and the original author gets mad. The thing is, if what you're doing is a group effort, the ideas are not fully 'yours' already. Unless peolle believe in you or you have an extremely superiour standing (like a director of a stage play), the group will change the idea if you don't defend it. And there's nothing wrong with that.

You can look at it that way, sure. There is no doubting that there are people who are more "in tune" with the "zeitgeist". I know it's probably unfair, but you only really need to look at Infiniminer and Minecraft to see how a slight change in idea can have massively varying degrees of success.
>>
>>386107598
I doubt it. Why would they buy the OP's game when some other games already do the meme anime thing? I think that people would be sufficiently saturated at this point in time.

In my opinion customers would react to this game as follows
>huh, an anime fighter game?
>lol, its another one of those shitty indies trying to utilize the anime fighter game meme
>like with all the minecraft clones, I won't buy this cheap moneygrab and I won't care what happens to it
>>
>>386106763
Because it sounds like the game will be about old ass grandpas fighting wearing their fedora and trench coat. It's boring, sounds boring.
Maybe that's where your problem located, you can't convince people about your ideas.

"Female crime boss with anime style" just that sentence can convince anyone that it can sell because it sounds sexy as fuck. Which is the point, it potentially can sells.

grim, dark, gritty, realistic mafia? who the fuck are you trying to sells it to? Who's your audience? Because I sure as fuck would think that is boring as hell.

Think this, you said "everyone loves your idea" yet it get changed anyway. If "everyone loves your idea" your team would stick to your idea and denied that other person idea, but no, they prefer the other one because it's more convincing and doesn't sound boring like yours.

Why do you like old grandpa anyway, are you gay?

They said they liked my idea when it was a mafia themed fighter, then when I mentioned more details they started changing shit til it got all japanesed up. Andwhat's wrong with mature manly men fighting in the streets? I'm sick of fighting games always having to be fruity ass anime shit with bitches with big titties jumping all around. This was meant to be dark, gritty, mature. Mature men, crime bosses fighting for their stake in the game. Bloodsoaked, rainsoaked streets at night, dirty alleyways, abandoned warehouses, real underground. More realistic fighting, no characters flying around, hurling energy attacks and punching 50 times a second. And they fucked it all up.

Want an idea of what they turned my gritty backalleys and streets into?

But that game looks like gay ass weeb shit. The only jap shit my game was going to have was a yakuza character, and they fagged that up too. He was supposed to look like a badass buff as hell older man covered in yakuza tats and fights with a knife. Instead he looks more like this wacky shit. And instead of being a grizzled hardened badass who survived WW2, he's a fucking "polite psycho" aka some shit anime trope.

Its double sided.
The game and the setting/theme behind it is destined to fail.
However, it is probably gonna be successful as a lewd fapbait.

We all know what they get paid for - for the anime/furry lewd art. Nothing more. I am sure you have seen at least some of those - now, quick, tell me what were the games on those patreon pages. You can't, since they being "games" was just an excuse or just a backdrop for porno.

Couldn't be farther from the truth.
Well, the 1st game is very different from the others. Much more of a true western RPG, but since it's played in real time people judge it as an action game and become disapointed.

But even with it's problem, the story and setting are its strongest points.
And with a gritty, medieval setting where young orphans are taken by a secluded organization to be mutated into monster slaying mutants, it's impressive it took me this long to draw the parallel.

Sure. Just be wary of I just said: it's a true western RPG at its core. It might not be for you. Good thing it always filthy cheap at sales.

The biggest complaint people have is about the combat system, but don't treat it like a hack 'n slash.
The game gives you tactical pause, item shortcuts, hotkeys... use that shit.

It's also not very customizable. Don't try to do a specific build. Be versatile.
The game is very lore-friendly in the sense that you're expected to use all its mechanics in conjunction: alchemy, magic, swordplay and the occasional pacific solution.

If even then it doesn't click, so be it. But if it does, you'll understand why to this date there are more threads about the 1st game than the others, outside of Witcher 3 shitposting/console-war threads.

Honestly some Dissida/GUndam Versus style game sounds much more fitting to mafia members fighting than a tradtional 2D fighter. It makes incorporating guns far easier. Otherwise, you'd have to go for something like Immaterial and Missing Power in which the game is specifically built around everybody being projectile zoners due to being a spin off of a shmp. It seems like the team just went in a direction with the gameplay that fits the concept better.
