You are right. That kind of content works for games with a constant influx of new players. Also, in terms of view count, the standard deviation is high.
Look at Cuddle Core's Alisa guide on That Blasted Salami's channel; the first part has almost 17k views, but the last part has less than 3000...
Hm. Maybe that's the difference between a character guide and a tutorial. Then there is the middle ground, "[character] from beginner to advanced" videos. For example
I think your TopTierTips guides series is fine, at least for DOA6. You even have a link to it in the description of your...
Well, Squeenix could shut down the project, but there is a precedent in the Tifa versus Yang death battle video. ScrewAttack released it five years ago, and it has more than 8 million views. On the other hand, they became a division of Rooster Teeth shortly afterward, so maybe they had more...
Yeah, TTT2 flopped.
On the other hand, Harada thought that T7 would last two years in arcades and one more year as a console game. It became a live service game, lol.
Who knows what they are after. The article mentions that the foundation collaborated with SNK through a subsidiary in the past. Maybe they saw a sustainable company and decided to buy it. It could be that they want to increase their presence in Asia without overcommitting. Also, they're...
Crown prince of Saudi Arabia's foundation to buy 51% stake in SNK
The foundation has a controversial sponsor, but the purchase probably won't affect SNK’s products.
I hadn't look at it that way. You might be right. Managing brands separately is common practice in the publishing industry (Tekken also has a brand account). But it makes sense since the studio would want to showcase a successful project (Nioh 2 was well-received, DOA6 flopped).
People have been pulling for saberfaces during the last five years. At least Genshin Impact's gameplay is more involved. Maybe it'll push future gacha games in the right direction (hopefully without ruining consoles games). I'm interested in GFL 2:Exilium, even if it's just anime XCOM.
Yeah, I got the impression that Marie Rose was going to be an edgier or morally ambiguous character at some point (like DOA4-5 Lisa), but they chose to make her more vanilla so that people would like her more.
While NiCO is a spin on the young prodigy and adults are useless tropes, at least a few of her lines in DOA Quest enhance the character. I remember reading "Hypocrites like to wear justice as a mantle" (or something like that) after completing one quest of the quests related to Helena. That's...
The franchise has changed in tone over the years. The older games had fanservice similar to Chung's shower scene in the SF2 movie (just before she gets assaulted by Vega and proceeds to tear him a new one, lol). The way I see it, it's a Basilisk/Ninja Scroll versus Senran Kagura debate at this...
The first time I listened to Mike Z in a podcast, I thought: Amazing! This man is even more insufferable than me. So him acting like an edgelord wasn't shocking to me. But eccentricity is not a valid excuse for an adult to be obnoxious after being told to stop.
SFV has cross-play between PS4 and PC, but the game had a terrible implementation of rollback netcode.
Cross-play could work well on next-gen consoles along with properly implemented rollback, although it wouldn't boost sales by much.
