Cliff Bleszinski, the creative director of Epic Games and the man behind franchises like Gears of War, has shared his thoughts on the current stage of Japanese games and revealed that many of them should feature some sort of multiplayer mode in order to attract Western players.
While Japan dominated the gaming industry back in 1980s and 1990s, the last few years haven’t been so kind to games coming from the Asian country, which are now overshadowed by many Western titles.
According to Epic Games’ Cliff Bleszinski, this is due to the reluctance of Japanese developers to implement multiplayer modes in their creations.
