You never know ;)
And anime is limited, game offer more scenes (unless the anime is long running like some shounen series).
If you compare 3 HDN to anime, you would see that even the first had more animated scenes (in terms of pure time) than anime =)
I'm talking animation, not animated sprites talking to each other.
This isn't even on point. All I'm saying is that a system filled with games that fill a specific niche but few games for each specific one is far from accessible, and a game that prides itself on cute characters alone is doomed to failure. Sure, there may be people out there who are sold on just cute characters alone, but they aren't going to be enough of a majority to make a game successful.
In fact, the creators of HDN even knew this, that's why they completely changed the gameplay in 2 to be more unique. HDN1 was panned for its gameplay, among other things, and they went out of their way to make the game more fun because, generally, fun drives the experience. Not to mention a large reason that HDN is popular is how game and gamer-savvy it is. People play for the girls- but not because they're cute. They play because the girls represent major gaming companies. That and because the whole game is a not-so-subtle allegory for the game industry.
And, considering the latest crowd fighter and its "costume break" feature, as well as most of the lewd content in Neptunia, I don't think it's the cuteness that they're showing off.
Not that I have any objections.
Has anyone saw the P.T from the new Silent Hill? Damn, the whole atmosphere its just freaking scary o_O
It's made by Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro. I don't even want to touch that, because that specific combo is too dangerous for a Silent Hill game.
