For a long time people who consider them self to be a hard core gamer so on and so forth have been complaining about the sudden outreach toward Anime styled games coming in from Asia over to America. Of course I am speaking of mmo's nothing more because we have had Anime based and styled games in the United States for a very long time, and although people may not like it those who don't are such a minority that it does not matter. Moreover those that don't like it in the MMO community are not聽 really the majority, well they are a huge minority but it was enough complaints to get this article written that is for sure.
A lot of people are very clear on the concept of Supply and Demand. Where the customers what it, or crave it generating a great demand and the Industries and companies come together and grant it, or Supply it in other words. Simple tactic of supply and demand. The more the customers want the more the Companies push out.
American companies are not really all that big on creating Anime styled games on their own, so as of late they have been taking on the more popular games that have been out for a while. Actually this is not something that has happened lately. In fact most of the games we get coming over toward the Global region have been out for years. Even Mabinogi which was an excellent game and still is, was an older game from an Asian country, or Foreign country rather.
Allow me to prattle on and on about this subject matter because people do not seem to understand this concept either: If you don't like it do not play it. Just like if you do not like someone you avoid being around them to the best of your ability. If in fact you do go around them often that is just your own fault. Like if you play a game you know you wont like, and that does not fit your style that is your own fault.
So long as Anime continues on becoming more and more of a trend(which in itself is annoying, I love anime but not it being a trend) and more American youths get into it for the fad or actually just like it the more MMO's based on animes or just styled like them you will see us start to generate and move over to the Global industry. Simply because there is a high demand for it. So if you actually have a lament toward it or some sort of deranged hatred of the genre you are going to have to either ignore the sudden outbreak or just get over it. Sad but true and yes no one likes to be told that, but it is what needs to be said. We need to face the harsh reality of things people.
Even I have to face the harsh reality. For example I do not exactly enjoy seeing adult themed games coming to the MMO community but I will defend their right and reasoning for doing it. Why? Supply and demand. I am positive that there are people out there who have been waiting for something like this to come along, and will get hooked easily. So even if they are F2p or P2P someone is going to sink hundreds into those games. It's called smarts and almost every game company has them.
The masses of full american companies are starting not only to buy out rights from other foriegn companies but they are also becoming partners in some cases. Though I can not think of a positive case that I am sure of right now, but go look through the wonderful site of MMO and you will notice some things. Such as the springing forth of 2D sidescrollers that were once restricted from being global let alone being in America's reach of play. These are almost always Anime styled actually they always are I have yet to see one where it was not. In truth there is one I would love to see become global but it'll be a while before that happens if ever.
Even the game that I praise so much "Lunia" did not start here in America,聽 so it is only appropriate that it gets mentioned here. Besides all of that it still boils down to supply and demand people. Wherever you look you will find companies taking in things that gather items, or any sort of product to make them money. They as an industry may not like the product but they will bring it under their name if it will make them a good product margin.
Since it has been a while since I have done a blog in a while so I hope this isn't too bad of a blog though it is shorter than my usual ones. I beg your forgiveness. </3
