Companies are greedy, at least in TN's case. They care about making absurd amounts of money and tits perpetually, and even if they have the time/resources to easily make things that would please their other fans they don't, even when money isn't an issue.
Not saying I agree or disagree (I honestly don't give a shit either way about the inner workings of a distant Japanese group, but I have a healthy curiosity on certain topics so what the hell I'll play devil's advocate) with what your saying, but what is
backing your quite frankly bold claims?
Companies are
greedy in general yes. Nothing new to discover here. They
have to be to survive in this modern capitalist environment with plenty of competition present, otherwise decreased profits happen which result to pay cuts/lay-offs on employees to cover the difference. Some would even go as far as
praise greed(see meaning of "Greed is Good" explanation in the original Wall Street film) as a motivator for increased production and innovation.
Now back to TN case specifically. TN should naturally care about making money for reasons stated in above paragraph. TN should care about making tits (I personally don't care about the video game tits, but I won't deny they have the existing demographic who consumes for it at least in the Japan region) happen since its their trademark image of the DoA series at this point whether we like it or not. TN tried to tone down the sexuality, but they received an uproar backlash for their troubles.
Now how do we
know again if TN the game dev group (
Not Tecmo Koei company as a whole) is making "Absurds amounts of money"? This implies that it's common knowledge TN
must be making remarkably high profits (Not just base revenue because that doesn't matter) to the point where even after deducting necessary expenses they still have enough money to do reckless things.
Is any of us on this site their personal ledger keeper? Have insider information (employee) that witnessed their financial dealings? Did TN publicly announces their finances in detail to the public? If no then this is all mere speculation, nothing more and nothing less.
On the "even if" assumptions of
even if TN had the necessary resources to do X thing to please Y group of fans when money isn't an issue (capital holdings is
always a constant issue)
why should TN take the risk and invest on that when in contrast doing Z thing to please Q group of fans would yield much more favorable results? Doing this does not make them inherently greedy, but practical instead since their livelihoods are on the line.
Stories of Japanese game companies laying off waves of people is a common sight whenever shit hits the fan. Its great to try to please as many kinds of fans as you can....as long as its profitable to do so since that is
always their #1 priority no matter how hard a company tries to maintain the guise of being pro-consumer (Sony with how they campaigned the PS4 recently).
Before people say the "You are a X employee!" statements...I'm not a pro-buisness guy, but I'm not one of those pro-consumer guys either who would blindly wave a sign around occupied Wall Street and expect an economic revolution to happen overnight because of a ruckus.
