Watch it be some bullshit that "western audiences only like happy or non-thought provoking media to consume" or something such shit that market research peddles and that's why 90% of modern gaming is non-stop action sequences.

Looking at you; Hoyo, Bandai, Falcom and many manga artists...
At the same time however, what the fuck are Western studios doing? I can't really remember the last a game published by a European or American studio that made me emotional?

Who hurt you? And why do you have to hurt me too! I just wanted to play video games and watch anime, not silently stare at my screen after having my emotions destroyed!
