Why are devs only milking old franchises now instead of innovating?

ninentdo is literally based on recylcling, they've been doing it successfully for 30 years despite the quality being average as fuck. thats what being a household big "name" gets you with the average consumer.

what did Arisu mean by this?

Not sure if it's universal, but at the very least Western entertainment seems to be stuck in a death spiral where they try to push new projects every once in a while relying on older properties for reliable profits, but basically none of those projects turn a profit because the higher-ups either intervene too much, or the devs/creators themselves aren't competent enough on their own to create a big project without relying on shitty political writing or silly gimmicks that don't get anyone invested in it long-term.

Even when a project does do well, they'll usually shelf all efforts towards building off it (until they think they can capitalize off the nostalgia for it) unless the project makes significantly more money than nostalgic products make, which pretty much never happens because most people only want to consume things they know they'll like, and that results in them only spending money on things that grant nostalgia, things like gachas that feed their sexual desires and things that they're already playing (Roblox, Fortnite, etc.).

Also if you can find it, Miyazakis explanation why weebs making anime is the worst thing that could've happened to the anime industry. Applies to every other entertainment industry.

Kids these days are retarded and can't find their way out of a paper bag.
DEI kids are doubly retarded and don't even pretend to work, just do except scrum meetings and "yelling to release stress" events.
Everything becoming worse, from health care to IT to infrastructure is the natural consequence of newcomers being retarded.

Creative stagnation is a sign of a declining society.
Unable to promote and discover new concepts and ideas and only capable of imitation.

because innovating is like optimizing it's seen as too difficulty

only male light novel authors do that though.

Well to be fair there is a very notable difference, that that is in fact the intent.
As thats what SELLS.
They're just delivering harem wishfufillment directly to those who want it.
And it works every time.

>The nips who write many of these modern works never go outside or interact with anyone beyond themselves, so their always stuck in their own otaku bubble.
>They base their stories, concepts and characters off of something they've seen in an anime, manga or videogame, instead of their own personal experiences.
This has also been a big problem in Western media. For some reason, everything they teach people in film/art school is through the lens of other pieces of art, so everything they learn is almost entirely abstract, because they've only been taught things within the context of other things, rather than why those things are important outside that context. From what I've heard, often the professors teaching them don't understand what makes those things important themselves.

It's all just trying to replicate what once was rather than figuring out a good template for what should be, which is why most modern Western stories either don't really have much of anything going on during the "plot" or they just rehash a bunch of clichés they've seen in other successful movies and hope it works out (usually the quality of the writing is unrelated to their success).

the games industry, much like hollywood, is incestuous. They don't hire people they don't know. New games come from indies only.

I always hated the framing of calling it a "competency crisis" since it seems to imply that the issue is a lack of competent people, while the real issue is that competent people aren't being placed in the necessary roles. The article identifies this but it blames it on a lack of meritocracy, when it's meritocracy itself that leads to incompetent people getting promoted. When industries become too competitive it's the competent people that are the first to be kicked out since it becomes a game of perverse incentives. The current system of credentialism is completely awful, randomly choosing people for jobs would legitimately yield better results.
As for media becoming an incestuous cycle of being based off of other media, I always think back to this Frank Zappa interview:

Idk if any of you have noticed but the modern economy is literally about minimizing risk at all costs and offloading any unavoidable risks onto the public. Even the entire AI apparatus being developed is done at the cost of the general public subsidizing their electrical costs while they pay peanuts to electircal providers despite offering nothing of substance

>>720747397
This is a problem in modern life in general where everything has become infinitely abstracted from reality most things aren't reflective of what is real.

STOP CALLING HER ARISU!
SHE WANTS TO BE CALLED TACHIBANA!

When you're a small developer, you can afford failure because you haven't invested much into it. You fail, no big deal, start the next project. When you're a medium developer, you can afford to fail a couple of times. You got a couple of projects, some don't do so well, but the others make up for it.
When you're a huge developer, you can't fail. At that point, it's sink or swim.
You notice some of your contemporaries doing well, but you also notice others sinking. You panic. Your last project was okay but not super successful. You see the look of your co-workers faces as they dread having to move back to Wisconsin to start all over again if this next project fails.
What you need now, is a sure thing. You gather some data, you see that your publisher owns the rights to a super popular game that hasn't had a sequel in a decade, but first they want a remaster of the original trilogy to generate interest for a sequel. Perfect! This will DEFINITELY work! WE CAN'T FAIL! WE HAVE TO ENSURE MY FRIEND STEVE FROM ACCOUNTING DOESN'T GO BACK TO WISCONSIN! WISCONSIN SUCKS, UNLIKE OUR EXPENSIVE LOS ANGELES OFFICES THAT WE *MUST* KEEP!
And that's why old franchises are being milked instead of the industry creating something new. Same shit happened in the 80s with the animation industry after all those 60s and 70s blunders.

What an interesting long running series

Can you milk a loli?

Like here, everything makes sense until the conclusion, which doesn't follow from the rest of the argument.

Arisu is doing the job that zoomers are too lazy to do and instead drink their onions latte..
