For how much I complain about devs like Compile Heart not making the kind of material they used to, I concur with basically everything here. The gooks and chinks will never be able to produce something uniquely Japanese like Neptunia, only imitations. And Stellar Blade is colossally overhyped and overproduced, Eve looks too much like a plastic doll to me, she looks better in Nikke with an anime-esque art style. Everyone also likes to forget how Shift Up went public after Stellar Blade's release and immediately added an ESG/DEI page. Goldfish attention spans, I swear. I always did say the gooks would fold far faster than Japan did if they ever took even a fraction of the pressure. Aside from Stellar Blade, it's all just gachashit anyway, and so it'd have no value to me. So I'll keep sticking to my Compage and other Japanese otaku games even if they become rarer and supporting niche Japanese devs. Even if it's liking for diamonds in the rough now, it's preferable to selling my soul to gachashit.
