There is a difference between JRPG and RPG

Anyways, since we're talking about RPGs might as well add JRPGs into the conversation.

Mine is

Chrono trigger
Final Fantasy 9

Definitely too young to play at that time because i can't finish anything except final fantasy 1, asdivine hearts and chrono trigger

What are you on about? You essentially asked why none of these orgs are in franchising and he answered it for you.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, God knows how many errors I've encountered just trying to get valorant running.

Valorant slightly edges cs out, but it's nothing to write home about. Mobile games reign Supreme here.

wait till they got replaced by AI, then they will start complaining.

Funnily enough Artists will survive AI more than any other job because of these people you call “artists defenders” , no one will go out their way to defend accountants losing their job to AI.

There is no "takeover" once you realize that manga manhua and manhwa all suffer the same problem, all of them have that one genre that's ruining the whole media
isekai and power fantasy with manga, isekai power fantasy and revenge fantasy with manhwa
And Wuxia with manhua.

Even though manga suffers this problem too, but manga are a lot more diverse than the other 2.

That said, it does open more opportunities for other works to be adapted, but clearly it's not those power fantasy bullshit manhwa And manhua, manga has tons of them alr and they don't need to look outside for that haha.

Funny you put reconsidered MIBR because they "invested a lot", while you consider Zeta to be out. Zeta is willing to put in more money than DFM ever will and that alone is enough to put them out of the equation.

How tf am I mad at you talking about Tier 2 shit? We're talking about Tier 1 all the goddamn time. Now I'm "all pissed off" because you're accusing me of talking about something I didn't even try to talk about.

Riot can get away with tampering with T2 since barring few regions no one watches those anyways but what you shouldn't do is to anger your most loyal fanbase. This is what I meant with PR issue.

I literally said this. Do you even understand what it means??

I kept stating the argument that Riot doesn't really care about the lower tier 1 teams. it's not a good thing, but they're going to keep doing it.

At least we have something to agree on.

I suggest you reread my whole post

You should go back to school since your English is so horrible.

Here, some fucking clarity to mr illiterate

Regional = AMERICAS , CHINA , PACIFIC , EMEA
International = masters and champions

posted 5 months ago

It is no wonder that Mr Biostar here thinks this way, you only think viewerships can easily swings with dramas and other shit like that.

When I said PR risk I'm talking about Riot. I'm sure you've heard about segmentation. Since you and riot care so much about those oh-so-precious international games I will fucking spell things out for you:

No matter the language , region etc, there are 2 types of viewers, international-regional viewers and international only viewers. And both have the same sub-segments , just start your way from the earliest game all the way to grand finals i.e; first stage watchers+ quarters only + semis only + grand finals only. Regional watchers is still a huge chunk of international viewers.

The same applies for international only viewers.

International viewers = international only + international-regional viewers.

Now remove one from the equation ( more importantly regional ones) and you get a disaster. And how to make sure that one does not remove themselves ? By not making them upset. How do you not make them upset ? Stop tampering with the region.

Riot can get away with tampering with T2 since barring few regions no one watches those anyways but what you shouldn't do is to anger your most loyal fanbase. This is what I meant with PR issue.

Or do I have to enlighten you what will happen when riot loses a huge portion of their international viewers?

posted 5 months ago

While it's true that international games are what makes riot money. It is false to think that minimal care should be put to regional franchising.

Long story short it's a PR risk and that will snowball all the way to international games

I think thats harder to track than tracking premier teams 😅.

But the easy way is just go to leaderboards and find them manually, which I always do everyw week or just when i feel like it. And some only played for 2 -3 acts.

I dont think he will leave anytime soon tho, his japanese is good.

posted 5 months ago

To sustain those viewerships you need regional franchise , those numbers aren't just going to magically appear out of nowhere. If riot cares so much about cost then riot wouldn't even consider letting global esports as a franchise partner. Hell, there wouldn't even be 10 main partners on every region. The fact that riot doesn't reduce the number of regional franchise teams means it's not entirely about cost

Long term gain trumps over short term gain.

posted 5 months ago

While that is true, it's not the one and only metric.

Number of radiants is important. This is where is see Japan is starting to improve, indicating a rise.

Every amount of players = 1 radiant that means playerbase is increasing.

posted 5 months ago

The latter. #14

People are focusing on the wrong things

posted 5 months ago

Number of premiers dont matter, there is a noticeable amount of jp radiants who never play premier. And they are good enough for that but chose to not join premier, yutaro is a good example.

Also cademy players offset the need for premiers

posted 5 months ago

Uh oh, I can see this either end up greatly or poorly

posted 5 months ago

That can only happen on the assumption that talent pool isn't growing. But that's not the case.

Anyways it's not as if hiring imports help japan either, no, Sc0rz is not a good example. Call it fluke or past glory, but to date Zeta went deep with full japanese, imports never achieved that.

posted 5 months ago

It means they realize that it's time to stop relying on imports and actually grow, those are short term pains. Japan should've ditched imports right from the start, if they face the problem head on they can fix it early before it became too late.

Rephrase that please 😅

posted 5 months ago

It made Japan T2 grow slower if franchising exists, and that slows Zeta and DFM( half affected) down. The amount of orgs choosing to ignore domestic talents and going for imports instead is enough to make me want to abolish franchising.

posted 5 months ago

I'm in favor of removing franchising entirely tbh.

But realistically I just prefer riot to audit one more time.

posted 5 months ago

That means they are the performers, each region should have 3-5 of them, the rest? Probably not so good.

posted 5 months ago

Free rider problem.

Just imagine a group project where the outcome is viewership and bundle sales, 5 members, a and b are doing great, the rest are shit. But the a and b are doing well enough that teacher don't give a shit. This misled the rest into thinking there is no need to improve.

This is the case with franchising every region.

Tbh we can even say EMEA, PACIFIC and AMERICAS are just free riding off of CHINA.

posted 5 months ago

I think one of the reason why is because of stability, viewership isn't in a safe spot, and losing one of the orgs especially successful in terms of viewership and bundle skin ones would make riot shit their pants.

posted 5 months ago

This is the main reason why I said organically haha

posted 5 months ago

Imo this feels like a half assed move from riot. Either you force the org's hands telling them to get serious or just abolish everything.

posted 5 months ago

Then it's time for riot to find someone organically.

People who downvoted you don't know shit, you spoke the truth bro.

posted 5 months ago

This is a likely explanation why franchising is like this, but this explanation provides 0 solution unless we're talking about riot removing franchising completely.

posted 5 months ago

Viewership and bundle sales.

Except masters, VCT matches viewership hasn't been impressive at all.

Bundle sales, this is most likely the reason why Riot is even thinking about reducing franchise slot.

If y'all can't even fix this, then y'all can forget about "fixing franchising".

posted 5 months ago

Less viewership obviously.

posted 5 months ago

It exists, but not exactly as VCLs

Xylitol_WU explained that there is National championship which offers ways to participate through college, internet Cafe, live , and club tracks.

Tbh I have no exact idea what he's talking about since 18 yos can't join live event. but what happen when a u18 qualify ? But here is the link
