Hoyo attempts to bring back the Lolicon

>[BREAKING NEWS]

In the latest issue of the *New Fortune Magazine 500 Rich List*, Cai Haoyu, founder of miHoYo, has appeared on the list for the fourth consecutive year.

However, after reaching a new high of 73.8 billion yuan last year, Cai Haoyu's wealth has shrunk by 18.45 billion yuan this year to 55.35 billion yuan, returning to the levels of 2022 and 2023.

Among the billionaires on the list, Cai Haoyu ranked 47th on the list of those experiencing the largest decline in stock market value, with a 25% drop in wealth. It's worth noting that Liu Wei, Luo Yuhao, and Song Tao, also from miHoYo, all saw their wealth decline by 25% this year.

As a well-known game developer with several star products, miHoYo relies heavily on the "blockbuster logic." However, currently, miHoYo's games *Genshin Impact* and *Honkai Impact 3rd* are facing declining revenue, while the development of its new games faces considerable uncertainty. When the next blockbuster will emerge it will directly impact miHoYo's future performance.

In June of this year, a set of recruitment posters revealed miHoYo's strategic new project—a "city-open world" game built with Unreal Engine 5 (UE5). This title, defined as a "next-generation flagship," not only marks miHoYo's first foray into the anime-style gaming market but also explicitly aims for next-generation console platforms, targeting the global AAA market with a "cinematic immersive experience."

Industry insiders point out that the widespread adoption of Unreal Engine 5 requires new games to achieve breakthroughs in graphics and interaction, posing a significant challenge to development costs and timelines.

Currently, the domestic game market has entered a phase of competition focused on existing market share. Data from the Game Publishing Committee (GPC) of the China Audio-Visual and Digital Publishing Association shows that the number of domestic game users grew by only 0.94% in 2024. While game license regulations have stabilized, content review has become increasingly stringent, placing higher demands on games' values and cultural compliance. miHoYo's new games need to find a balance between market demands and player expectations.

Against this backdrop, miHoYo faces increasingly fierce market competition. Games like NetEase *Justice Online* and Kurogames *Mingchao* are constantly diverting users. If miHoYo's new games cannot replicate its "blockbuster" success, the company's revenue growth risks stalling.

>damn trash
at least try to be true to the subculture and stop thinking that femcel devs know how to create anime outfits

the design shown on endfield are trash on purpose so they can sell the limited banner better

>>1884364
>subculture
>20+20+5
mainstreampandering is the new meta gup

>>1884349
>age up several lolis for absolutely no reason
>try to get lolicons back by lolifying one of the worst characters
Too little too late.

Fanying (https://fanyinggame.com/) did its first closed beta test and it was kinda surprising:

>Male MC only
>Affection system, romance scenes with the female characters
>It's quite lewd and apparently there's even a sex scene.
>Not open world
>Combat is a four character team with switching and elemental reactions, testers called it the worst part of the game currently
>Artifact system similar to Genshin
>Really good graphics and animations
>No gacha in the beta, no idea about the game's monetization model

According to their website there are other playable males, so doesn't really fit as a harem game, but I guess it'll be similar to P5X. Basically it's a smaller Honor of Kings: World aimed at only male players, Tencent is even an investor in it.

>>1884391
>aimed at only male players
>has playable males

>>1884394
lol

>>1884391
What's the point of male only MC and sex scenes with the females if they are going to add males units? Same shit as CZN and star drive, destined to flop.

>>1884394
>making non mixed toilet gachage
>Somehow chyna and gook missed the memos
Even Umamusume and Idolmaster thrive because 100% female character only. And yet Chyna and gook still make mixed toilet gachage.

>>1884391
>exit sex scene
>eye to eye with a twink
how dense can they get

>>1884396
Because the devs are icky toward incel fanbases but still want incel moneys

>>1884402
>make incel games
>win incel money
it's that simple. this isnt 2022, incels have become wise to these bait and switch, its the whole reason the "mixed toilet" denomination was created. we will simply not play any game that has male units. seems like only snobble and azur promilia got the memo though

>>1884391
Where's the gameplay bwo

So apparently the Korean game "Eversoul" also got into hot water by making (You), the Savior, incompetent as CZN's captain.

>>1884391
>we did it MLbros, we finally beat those icky japanese femmc trannies and now daddy Tencent will make TRVE ML games for us straight male CN BVLLS
>straight male game in question
AYYY LMAO

Anyone will play where winds meet? I'd heard you can marry other players

>sexy for (You) female characters with huge tits spilling out of their tops
Mongil won.

>>1884417
Big win for MLbros!

>>1884409
>there are suspicious that person in charge received money to ruin the game by sabotaging it
>suspicious that MC was forcibly changed for the purpose of the production's team malice and intentional insult to the players
Are koreans mentally ill?

>>1884430
I'm suspecting all gacha devs are mentally ill.

>>1884234
Endfieldbros, our response?

>>1884417
>Mongil won.
>
also they are doing damage control and deleting the youtube comments, there where like +300 comments and now there are only 128 comments

>>1884462
lmao

>>1884462
A new ML mob has been born
Only Japan is left

>>1884462
Xhey won the dogshit flop award (lots of feminist gook games were in the race)

>>1884462
kek

wuwa has set the precedent that any mixed toilet can be ML now and corpos are just following suit

>>1884462
I don't get it.
What's the problem with including one male characters in a 99% female roster game?

>>1884478
The problem is the bait and switch. Thus far most if not all of their marketing had no male characters, which led potential players to believe it was a female only cast (except MC).

>>1884396
>destined to flop
CZN is doing good thought

>>1884481
Being below the big fishes isn't doing "good" tho

>>1884478
Two problems:
1.The twink in that pic is 5 start character so you can get spooked by him frequently since he is probably in the standard banner (something like this happen with lingyangin WuWa)
2. The devs only show playable female characters in until now, if you don't believe go and check the previous trailers. promotional art and even the gameplay footage of the CBT

>>1884462
>people seething and shitting when Mongil has playable male
>while ignoring endfield for doing the same

>

>>1884486
Endfield didn't bait people showing only female characters until the last moment and everyone already knows Arknots is mixed toilet game

>>1884485
Is still a waifu game, as it is being marketed as such

>>1884491
nice pits

>>1884486
Enfield isn't trying to pander to the ML crowd

>>1884489
they baited people by having good lore and an indepth factorio system. Ended up having neither.

This is Nikke's current audience.

>>1884430
They unironically believe the
>evil feminists made us write a bad story we dindu nuffin
Every single time.

>>1884498
is nikke the gachage with the most NUANCE right now?

https://youtu.be/oEjiuXXpG8E?si=uhhbib4JtVrNLHEd&t=609
It’s kinda insane that they achieved this level of 3D quality with Unity. It makes me wonder what the hell mihoyo is doing with their flagship Unity games.

>>1884491
>chocolate shaped turd is still chocolate, as it is being marketed as such
ok, LMAO.

>>1884391
is this the new gacha trend? "waifu" games with male mc only and other playable males

>>1884498
THANK. YOU. Only people like Mikha'el can spread the brave message.

>>1884506
BLOODY BASTARD DONT YOU SEE THE BIKINI IT IS AN EM EL BITCH PERISH UNDER THE COW

>>1884496
>by having good lore
LMAO!!!!

Really bro? also >>1884524 nice "waifus" KEK

>>1884521
>21 watching
God damn... I unironically feel bad for them

>>1884531
>b-b-b-b-but we sneaked in some males

>>1884531
Why? this is the modern audience they are trying to appeal, let them have it

>>1884430
This happens too often to be a coincidence.

Go mixed, get axed.

>>1884524
kek I hope they enjoy their mixed toilet audience. I wouldn't be surprised if this makes less revenue than Aether Gazer.

Good day sirs what game is today ML

>>1884542
The game that starts with M and ends with L yes

>>1884542
Wuwa

>>1884542
>>1884544
>>1884547
what's up xister

xwe just didnt try hard enough add more male and waifu with lives next time surely

>>1884537
doritranny...

Chaos Zero Nightmare is succeeding tho despite it's controversy while the waifuslop flopped and slopped. Gookcels are irrelevant.

this came to me in a dream btw

Can m*h*** and k*** replicate this SUCCEED??

>>1884352
zzzookeks, our relaunches are taking up so much money from wealthy chingdong!

Trickcal SWEEP!

Sometimes I wonder if you guys just shitposting everytime a new game with playable male appears, or actually seething like those chinks and gooks?

>>1884534
what a fucking weird decision they went out of their way to not add a femc because they want the game to be ml but then added other playable males for the 1 fujo who might not even know about the game, czn also did the same except czn is being hard carried by the westoid

>>1884575
>Mostly shitpost.
Us (ML/harem lover) ignore that (mixed toilet) gachage, and play snowbreak (and other certified Harem game check Harem game thread). Mixed toilet dev can fuck yourself.

>(ML/harem)
lol lmao
ML has the harem elements
But harem doesn't have or traditionally goes against ML guidelines
think your choice of words better next time

>>1884583
>Us

>>1884583
Wuwabros our response?

>>1884583
>Thinking ML can be compared to harem
Also snowbreak is literally a tranny game. Sells it's soul by genderbending it's NPCs and pretending it's ok.

Literally the Fire emblem of gacha.

good morning sirs we hating what game today?

https://suno.com/song/3871243c-5279-4c67-9a42-495ab9e8499b

>>1884582
Lmao, you don't even know what are you talking about, tardie. Just spitting out nonsense.
It was a femc as well.

>>1884595
>genderbend
>tranny game
Sure, sure. Umamusume is tranny game if you say that. beside snowbreak is genderbend npc only.

>>1884599
The umas are og females in their characterization snowxister.
Genderbending for pandering is peak soullessness.
>BUT BUT IT'S ONLY NPCS
And?

>>1884583
>Us

>>1884531
Even if the game was ML and full waifus, i wouldn't play it; only a crazy people would give their money to Netmarble.

>>1884583
>snowbreak
im not gonna play your borderline porn game with forgettable characters, mlturdie

>snowseethe unprompted
R-r-r-rent free

>>1884604
So true, xis! we need more NUANCE

where is the anon that plays WWM on CN server?

>>1884613
>unprompted
What is this then>>1884583

who will become THE yasuke of mihomo?

>>1884624
ZZZ is becoming the Yasuke of Hoyo. So many relaunches can't be cheap to maintain.

>>1884624
It's already happened.

>>1884626
>killed Michael after 1 patch
funny

>>1884625
ZZZ crearly covers the costs and earns something, but mihoyo obviously wants more

>>1884632
ZZZ is the only one that lost more players in less than a year and monthly downloads are shit too.

>>1884595
>tranny game. Sells it's soul by genderbending it's NPCs
>those "troons" has to suck my dick and bear my children like good submissive waifus
>somehow le bad
xisters are just jealous and seething that r63 males are more female than them IRL

>>1884630
>after 1 patch
No, not even 1 patch. The patch hasn't even finished.
Less than 1 patch, kek.

>>1884630

Seriously, they fired him? But that doesn't solve anything. I mean, now they have to update that milastra shit thing for at least a year before abandoning it, because otherwise they'd be admitting it was a failure, and the filial son has this false belief that mihoyo doesn't make mistakes.

the serenity pot isn't updated much anymore; for example, one or two pieces of furniture every two or three patches, when in 2022-2023 they gave it a lot of importance lol

The serenity pot was also much easier to maintain, and there are enough autists that love that shit. They could've expanded it with the minigames crap without pouring so much resources to the milastra thing.

>>1884640
And it's still makes enought money

>>1884654
Source?

>>1884664
Disrupting the narrative during times of hardship will result in additional social credits being drained

Mint pickers are pivoting to endfield... and wuwa drama farmers too

>>1884672
Not suprising. Endfield is literally just edgy and chuuni Genshin.

>>1884674
Anything harder than Sesame Street is edgy compared to Genshin.

So how is HG gonna do "devs listened" if they never make mistakes?

>>1884674
WuWa is also an edgy and chuuni clone of Genshin so what's the point?

>>1884681
They make mistakes in AK once in a while, but they always seem to fix the things that actually need to be fixed. I’d say they’re pretty good at ignoring loud, stupid opinions too.

>>1884682
>b-b-but W-Wuwa!!!
kek

>>1884664
It makes as much as wuwa and both still didn't EOS

oh yeah this wuwa livestream better be hype or its fucking over

Babu babu

>>1884651
I mean no one admits TCG was a failure so...

>>1884691
What wrong saar? You no like new female with problem for rover to solve??
She schoolgirl, very very hot. Will reward with seductive gaze and 60 asstrites. Go now, spend money!

>>1884693
sex with goat...

what is wuwa thinking not teasing 3.0?
not only content is fucking dry we dont even have something to look forward to

Why haven't I seen anyone seething about this game being pandering incelshit

>>1884715
because it's all fake

wuwa's general is still dead as fuck

>>1884717
censored patch

>>1884717
How's this shit even possible when /akg/ is alive 24/7 but /wuwa/ is dead as fuck? do they don't discuss gameplay at all?

>>1884717
Chisa having censorship spats halted the momentum.

>>1884719
those old generals thrive because of 2-3 autists who never left and just keep posting

>>1884722
I’m sorry, but that doesn’t make any sense to me. Every general has its own autists

>>1884715
PGR is not popular and has no drama, so browns ignore it

>>1884531
it's net fucking marble

they're worse than both turdcent and shitease combined

>>1884715
>m*le
Yucky
