It will go the way of so many of their titles. They've never publicly released stats on their games, the way DMM does to drive hype, which all the more makes me leery of spending any money or time on new releases. I hope they NEVER get their hands on KanColle, because they don't ever deserve a cash cow like that, seeing how they've been running fraudulent paywall schemes.

I know what Nutaku is after, because so many tech companies have tried (and failed) to do ... they want to do things, even if it's downright scummy, to drive up the green on the ledger sheets, to entice acquisition, so that their founder(s) can make millions cashing the whole thing in. And if you think it's bad now, wait till whoever buys them out runs the show. There'll be tsunami of tears clogging up ethernet cables all around the world.

Yet they are running $2 000 000 (and now $10 000 000) investment funds into english developers willing to do naughty games... Curious ways to drive ledgers to green, huh?

Besides, Nutaku doesn't develop any of their hosted games.


Doesn't make this version any less scammy. I'd would hope there won't be that many idiots who would support this bullcrap paywall policies and players would show devs behind this that such things are unacceptable, but not gonna delude myself. People with more dough than common sense will happily open their wallets anyway.
Well, b!tching on fan forums won't do much regardless. If any of you want to take it out on devs, take it to them, on social media outlets or something

You do know that they are after licensing, because if you take their "investment", your IP belongs to them. In short, yes, this is a way to drive up their "shareholder" value before ever going public (or attracting an acquisition). Think of it this way: If you were in a brothel, and you were competing with 9 other women, being displayed like an object for sale, and some rich dude walks in, I'm sure you're going to pull out all the stops you can.

Many tech companies have done this before, under the guise of "fostering nurturing or budding development", but all they were after was some no-name basement dweller who had this brilliant idea, and they wanted to own the next "Facebook", "Snapchat" or "Twitter". I know a lot of people in the investment community, so these kinds of things are quite common. I'm interested in knowing who exactly is pulling the strings behind Nutaku (and not the public face of some PR dweeb)

Wow, our pre-reg really is horrendous compared to what JP got. Like, no comparison at all.

I got really lucky today, got one 4star and nine 3 stars

Yeah same...

If i don't get a 5* through luck i won't try that game...No way i am spending Money on this shit^^

from what I'm reading this is looking super greedy and things we need long term are behind paywalls

....I think I'll try on release but I'm not even sure on that
