Genuine question, I have fun with the games but the UI’s of the are so horringly bad and not user friendly. Whats the philosophy there? (See Dragons Dogma 2).

    It’s not just the games… trying browsing around on the web on JP-specific websites, LOL, it’s like going back in time to 2001 internet.

    JP (and other Asian) UI/UX design is starkly different from Western, so much so it’s a documented thing UX designers study.

      As someone who lives in Japan, I can confirm it’s painful whenever I’m forced to use a Japanese website for anything. Mobile apps are even worse. I really don’t understand, how hard can it be?
