The subtext is pretty obvious here. The recent success of Asian games in the west is a direct result of western gamers seeking refuge from the cultural Marxism that has overrun western game dev. Western developers are floundering, so why would any foreign developers copy those failing woke blueprints?
Here is hoping a lot of them listen and keep making great Japanese games and not fall for the "global audience". I kinda miss the really whacky games, we don't see any LSD dream emulators or mystical ninja anymore.
Damn, I forgot about Disaster Report. Been ages since I last had someone talk about it. Jumping Flash did not even occur to me that it was a bit different, probably one of my first PS1 games ever. Yes, I want more of those games that are super creative.
Disaster Report 4 is on Switch and PC, somewhat current. I always lump Jumping Flash in the group just because it's so off the wall. PS1 had some real magic. First time I played the demo for Wipeout, total game changer.

Money and middlemen telling them that is what the west wants.
