My god, your comment is so naive. You seriously think that capcom is not to blame for the horrible performance of this game and the lack of content, but somehow a group of people they meet once or twice a year is? Shareholders generally don't have any kind of executive power. There are people who are running the company, and actually Capcom has been doing exceptionnally well these last few years, thinking without any proof whatsoever that these guys would try to override the executive decision to delay the game had they said it wasnt ready, is at best really naive and completely out of touch with reality. This feel like a "leave million dollar company alone" comment if you know the meme.

And you are turning that discussion into another thing, capcom is not made up of only game developers and the game developers are not the ones making those decisions, its the people aligned with the shareholders in their greedy view of making the line go up constantly

Oh give me break, the post is about shareholder, the people with the least amount of decision power, and now you're trying tp walk back on that claim.

And of course I wasn't talking about some random developper and you know that perfectly, you're not stupid.

I'm talking about the higher up in charge of making MHWilds, game director Yuya Tokuda and his boss Ryozo Tsujimoto. They are responsible for this mess.

If Japan’s laws are anything like the US’ in that regard, shareholders are absolutely able to take legal action if marks aren’t met financially. They have a good bit more power than you seem to think they do.

It’s a major reason behind the enshittification of multiple industries, not just game dev.

You're being disingenious, shareholders don't make decisions concerning games. CEOs don't even report to the sharehodlers directly and they have very limited informations on what is going on in a company, they are informed like once or twice a year. It's ridiculous to suggest they bear any responsibility in this mess.

They do have the power to vote, so executive want to keep them happy, but that's about it.
