Being a very talented game developer does not make one automatically also a marketing talent. Back at his time at Sega he had his own people for that. Now they have probably not the money to hire the perfect marketing gurus.
And it seems that DS is also quite restrictive in deciding what can be shown and what can't be shown.
The comments at the frech page cannot be taken seriously anyway though. Was reading more of them and as expected a single "genius" said S3 looks like a PS2 game
And that cannot be taken seriously. This people were either to young to really experience the PS2 or have forgotten how games looked. And anway how decides how a PS4 looks.
This a PS4 game
and this a ps4 game as well
The second game looks less impressive technically seen but it is still a ps4 game although this stuff might be even possible at the ps2.
But nobody called it a ps2 like game. It was praised for the different graphical styles.
So it is funny that they insult Shenmue 3 as a ps2 game although there a re many other games out there that look more than ps2 games than Shenmue.
S3 does not look like a ps2 game at all for me. And unlike the funny people that state that I still use the ps2 in 2019 from time to time. And I cannot see an parallels between S3 and a ps2 game. Not even the best ps2 games.
