BB Producer quits ArcSys

https://nichegamer.com/blazblue-creator-leaves-arcsys/

Oh no what ever will they do without him
How will they pump out shitty games with moronic mechanics like danger time, wall-breaks, > 40% average damage after like 3 hits and copy pasted outer boundary clone girl storylines without him
How will they make shit games that suck (every series but BB) now he's gone

    They have no design philosophy anymore, sure you may argue that they never had it in the first place but their games used to be fun. It's like everyone there was forced to watch Core-A videos, create a twitter account and follow influencers and their opinions
    It's the fighting game company for the people... The dumb people
    Right now the only games worth it are published by Bandai and Capcom and I don't see that changing in the next 30 years frick ArcSys

        It's generally better when people don't just credit one single person with the creation of a game or franchise but sometimes it gets pretty damn close.
        Mori was the director, writer and artist working on Blazblue - a fighting game which is for the most parts a fricking visual novel. This isn't comparable to someone like Molyneux who did next to no actual work on most games he "worked" on besides being "the idea guy"

      >implied in how they will handle fanservice
      the two series have wildly different audiences, though. BB's main audience are in Japan, where skimpy outfits aren't as big of a concern in their media, and especially since mori himself is an otaku, why would he risk it given that it's half of what keeps blazblue selling in the first place?

    Mori was probably welcoming Guilty Gears success at first. Believing that this would allow him to expand Blazblue into more directions than fighting.
    But yeah, BBTAG should have been a 20 dollars fillter title instead of 50 buck excuse for RWBY characters to get made. And the mobage being in development hell for so long also didn't help his case.

          That's the most anti-troony thing you can do in a genderbender story. The idea that your sex is set in stone and also part of your soul is something trannies would never accept.

    Mori """"quit"""" (got fired) because hes a fricking moron who bet it all on a Blazblue FGO clone, in 2020 when even titans like Cygames and Delightworks were struggling and Squareenix and Bamco were killing their gacha left and right aftwr a year. I cant believe we live in a time when people would actually put MORI on a pedestal and pretend they always liked Blazblue when 75% of the internet shat on the series and larped being a Guilty Gear player since 2009. Absolutely baffling.

      Barely anyone thinks Mori left because of Bridget troony memes. The gacha flopping was also only the final nail in his coffin. Not the entire reason.
      Mori was always a diva who loved sniffing his own farts. BBTAG flopped and only happend in the first place because he needed an excuse to get RWBY units into a game. Because Arc Sys weren't willing to let him sign up a true RWBY game - a series only he gave shits about.
      The XBlaze visual novels also didn't perform very well and Blazblue hype generally faded away in the west when Guilty Gear started get new games again. The US made the sales so nobody gave a frick about Blazblue still being somewhat more popular with the japanese. His games didn't sell anymore and after the gacha he lost his position as a director which is basicly the same thing as getting sacked in Japan. Him leaving is the only logical thing to do - Someone like him would never accept a low ass marketing position.

        Funny to think that a fricking gender bender ecchi manga spinoff was the MOST successful spin-off series. Es and Naoto didn't stand a chance against good ol' fanservice and fetishes.

        This is Japan. IPs are still very much connected to their creators.
        KONAMI tried to get something new out of Metal Gear without Kojima with Survive but thats the limit of what the fans would tolerate at best. If they ever decided to make a Metal Gear Solid 6 with a new director in charge people would lose their shit.
        Blazblue can't lose its creative head and main writer and still be the same thing. Not like its a priority for ArcSys in the first place. Again: ArcSys are all in on the western market now and Blazblue was always only really popular in Japan.

              Kojima is not comparable in terms of ego, fame or stolen (by claiming all success is a result of purely his own work consistently) to any other dev in the industry.
              Not even Iga or Moloneux.
              Its not a remotely fair comparison.

                Sure. Different levels exist.
                Still: Mori was a diva who believed he could do no wrong while he was carrying ArcSys in the absense of Guilty Gear. Otherwise he wouldn't have gotten away with all those weird ass side projects for so long.
