Why can't Japan be into FPS?

It's my favorite genre and it's weird to see that the West is the only one doing fps games, why can't Japan be into it?

Jap storytelling/literature is so shit that they still believe stories in video games are good, so they still prefer RPGs. It doesn't help that the fps genre itself is so fractured and poorly supported.

>fractured and poorly supported
What do you mean?

ever played a japanese made fps? they're all shit. and no, railshooters like time crisis don't count.

Too fast paced

They prefer to see the story rather than be apart of it.

It's too much testosterone for the average jap. They can't handle it.

Dunno, that one dog seemed pretty into them.

Splatoon was good and original. People seemed to like Kid Icarus multiplayer. I'm hoping we'll get a Switch version.

Metal Gear Online was pretty sweet.

Was Dirge of Cerberus something?

I know none of these are F, but they're close.

They never had a gun culture

They love airsoft.

There haven't been many good FPSs the last couple of decades. I'm more surprised anyone in the west gave a shit about the genre (outside of retrogamers) for that long.

Japan really like their RPGs with the same story told for the millionth time with a few changes here and there

Fps’s typically put the player in the role of a macho-man, or at least provide the feeling of such.
That doesn’t mesh well with Japan’s majority demographic of sissy girly boys. Being brolic is seen as homosexual there.

Neither did bongistan but they like shooters

Is there any reason as to why Japanese storytelling is so melodramatic and drawn out? Seriously, it’s exposition dump over exposition dump along with anime grunting.

>bongistan
Sweden?

They know that FPS is a low IQ genre

nice posting third person shooters in an fps thread

Because Japan did not have an FPS boom in the 90s due to them not adopting DOS or Windows until much later.
They had an RPG/VN boom instead with the PC98.

You have no idea how crazy their airsoft scene is, their stuff puts the rest of the world to shame.

All videogames are low IQ, video games aren't for improving your brain.

their eyes are inferior and it makes them sick or some shit I don't know

The problem is the FPS scene in Japan consists of people that enjoy Western FPS and they simply want more around them to be into the same games. There's not too much of an audience for JP developed FPS unfortunately.

You're an absolute moron if you think the FPS genre is popular literally anywhere because of "gun culture".

Neither do Scandinavians who are the best in the world at FPS.

They don't play on PC

This coupled with the fact that only recently nips have been into FPS like APEX is the reason there's no FPS games being produced there.
Give it time and maybe they'll make some geared towards their own demographic

Same reason why "western storytelling" in vidya is some variation of Diehard. Design by committee is shit and publishers want a predictable return on their investment.

the only one i see them the best in is cs where all you do is stare at a corner until someone pops up
are they good in any other fps like cod or halo or apex?

think to myself 'bongistan' surely they don't play fps in the middle east. mfw realise he meant my own country.

>Not pointing quake
You are f tier user. You can't talk about skill in fps

i havent played quake in many years. do they still have esports? the only esports i watch are cs overwatch and starcraft

>"western storytelling" in vidya is some variation of Diehard
Maybe when you're lucky. They're mostly heading down the path of whedon flavored snark gangs. Can't play a western game with more than three playable characters without some flavor of snark.

Is this peak muttshart cope?

Don't take it personally, FPS shitter.

We have tournaments, but they are small.
I want players so i can teach them or have fun.

>balding Western bugman in his 30's LARPing as a high testosterone murder machine
Try having some self-awareness next time, subhuman.

Yeah, that's what I said. Japan, you get TPS.

me personally i'd say modern fps's are harder to be good in
like quake requires you to be good by yourself
while overwatch(which is what i play)requires you to be good by yourself and requires your teammates to be good as well to win

Because the devs grew up with these games rather than FPS games

Ok, Chang.

that is odd that they dont even try making doom clones

I really can't think of any
