STEAM | July 2014-3 – Let Off Some STEAM Bennett

Status
Not open for further replies.
Seems like most Japanese PC users are stuck playing Western games due to domestic DD services being so limited. That's one of the reasons Falcom hasn't been doing PC ports for the recent Kiseki titles.

And then you have Japanese games being released on Steam that aren't even available to purchase in Japan...

That'd also explain the shift from PC first, handhelds later to handhelds first and foremost. PC Maybe.

Even when DOS gamers got Sorcerian thanks to Sierra's patronage, the original soundtrack got absolutely gutted in order to work for MIDI devices, and most players had to deal with lame AdLib music if they hadn't purchased an MT-32 deck by that point. I'm honestly amazed they put Vantage Master V2 up online, for free, with a half-decent English translation. They might have been let down by inconsistent localization in the past, but the company's not going to abandon PC after seeing how accepting Western PC users are.

Not quite Falcom (though certainly inspired by), Zeliard kind of made up for that in the soundtrack department in the Japan via Sierra series of Game Arts games. Even the basic Adlib synth was so good.

I wonder if Valve's even paying attention to the Japanese PC game revival happening on Steam. They didn't select any Ys games for flash sales or dailies this Summer Sale, and their last trip to Japan ended up putting Japanese pubs off instead of giving them good reasons to promote the service on their end.

Sierra favored the Game Arts ports for sure. I'll also say that SoftEgg's port of Princess Maker 2 to DOS is remarkably faithful with the music, despite using a different sound chip.

Who knows? I wanted to say that publishers set their pricing in those situations, but I guess Valve is the one who still sets which titles actually do go on sale or not.

Precisely the problem. Maybe they see what Capcom does and think that reflects on the whole situation, even though a company like Falcom is waiting for good reasons to port to digital distro. I bet GOG is more accepting...Falcom's given them the go to distribute worldwide at a fair price, which is new.

Yup I got like 14 games I need to idle just from the recent bundles and hoping it'll knock the price down enough to where I only have to spend 10$ on it. Game surprised me out of nowhere when they made the annoucement early on this week.

I was surprised that the announcement was so sudden. I sort of expected it to arrive by fall at the earliest. It's a pleasant surprise, but I'm just glad that I had so many games left to idle.

Seems like most Japanese PC users are stuck playing Western games due to domestic DD services being so limited. That's one of the reasons Falcom hasn't been doing PC ports for the recent Kiseki titles.

To be fair, it's probably mostly western games and eroge.
 
Why? What happened?
I don't know if it's the case right now, but Steam Japan doesn't have Japanese-text options, which makes for a big user-end barrier to purchasing and managing a library (Gamastura).

Never mind, there's a Japanese-language option up now. I'm thinking of another article outlining Japanese devs/pubs' complaints with the service, probably back in 2013.

That battle system is pretty fun and seems a bit more fresh than your average turn based RPG. Also the jazzy feel the music has is amazing. Really cool to have this come out on Steam since the only other way to play the game was via PSP or Vita since it's a PSP game. Love that Falcom has always done PC versions for some games like this and yS and that Xseed has actually decided to bring us this version. Hopefully we get to hear more about the Second Chapter soon!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56RmwwKxPzE

Oh my! That song just completely sold me on the game. I can always trust the falcom sound team to put out sweet tunes. Thanks for the info.
 
Aha, it's the Edge article covering Valve @ BitSummit, where the company offered stuff to doujinshi developers in particular.

Major complaints seem to be that Greenlight's the only option for smaller devs, which means more work on their end preparing a good first impression (means hiring a translator friendo) and more risk in their home country if the Greenlight fails.

Totilo edited a Kotaku article on Kamiya refusing PC support, noting that most Steam games don't have Japanese-language options ready yet, and that games can only be searched for in English characters. I'm sure some of this is old news, but it's worth repeating. There's no getting past the reputation that PC gaming gives someone in Japan, too, since salarymen only see PCs as business consoles and nothing else. I guess there's no fun allowed except on mobile or in an arcade at that age, huh.

Point is, Falcom's most likely going to do PC ports if they start earning lotsa royalties from XSEED's Steam and GOG sales, regardless of who's buying. This consistent relationship of theirs is doing good for both.

Greenlight is a huge problem and will hopefully be scrapped soon (although, valve time..) not only is it preventing Japanese indie devs from trying to get on Steam but we all see what has become of it in the west...

Guys I don't really know where to post this, I'll try my luck here.

The thing is I got a code for Watch_Dogs (already played this on PS4), and I'm willing to trade it for a code for Batman Arkham Origins cause I've been itching to play this and didn't buy it in the last Steam sale.

Please send PM me if you're interested.

Hey, guys. Would you guys be offended if I did a giveaway for a bunch of bundle games just so I can get the mega-giver status?

How about if I threw in 1/2/few actual games from Steam?

The motorcycle sections are at least much better in Tomb Raider Underworld, I hated the one in Legend, reminded me of Bayonetta...

Since today is my birthday, I thought I would give a little token of appreciation to you guys. Thank you for making my time at SteamGAF a wonderful experience. There have been tough times and even more wonderful moments. You guys are an awesome group of people, don't ever change.

happy bday shadownet

Go ahead, Ventara. Remember, though, we're doing this at Shadownet's bequest. That'll teach some to be more proactive.

Coolsies! I'll make sure that they're good bundle games that I'd enjoy myself. And I guess I'll thrown in a few actual Steam Gift games, too.

Kinda feeling lazy right now so maybe I'll do it tomorrow.

Man...the online in Injustice is really bad. It took me and Frosty 63 minutes to do 3 matches. Lots of waiting around in the lobby, constant crashing when inviting a friend, dead online. Blah.

I really really hope the MKX pc port isn't a mess like this. :|

also nice giveaway Shadow, and happy birthday!

If people are going to be doing a lot of giveaways just for the sake of getting to that 25 point, rather than filling this thread with them, may I suggest and remind people ModBot can be used in other threads?

I made one a while back to avoid clogging up the sales threads. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=840818&highlight=
The FREE to a good home thread is always welcoming. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=460878&page=125

Edit: Oh for those that have played it, how is Freaking Meatbags? I really like the name, but I'm not sure if game stands up as well.


The motorcycle sections are at least much better in Tomb Raider Underworld, I hated the one in Legend, reminded me of Bayonetta...

It can't be any worse than the experience in WET. Still the worst level I have ever played in videogames, I felt such anger at it.

Since today is my birthday, I thought I would give a little token of appreciation to you guys. Thank you for making my time at SteamGAF a wonderful experience. There have been tough times and even more wonderful moments. You guys are an awesome group of people, don't ever change.

Happy birthday mate. I do hope you know that your time here with us with all your sense of good humour and enjoyment has helped make a good experience for us as well in this thread.

Now remember as it is your birthday, you are allowed to do something silly for the sake of being silly. Don't let this right go unused,.
