Why do Japanese game character names look so similar to Western names? Like FF's Claude, Alice, Sky Rail's Estill, etc., without using Japanese names
Because Japanese names are convoluted, and some Japanese names are like Yamashita Murano, Naka Takahashi Inuzuka Kameda
Waiting for the life of a farmer, a handsome male protagonist Or if a beautiful heroine’s name is Kameda Shotaro, Michiko Inuzuka’s pronunciation will definitely upset the audience’s appetite. There are too many Japanese people with names based on places or occupations. If you want to be beautiful, you have to avoid the problems of local Japanese surnames. It has to be changed to Western style. Furthermore, Japan has been pursuing the pursuit of leaving Asia and joining Europe. After all, developed Europeans are also beautiful, unlike yellow people who have rat-headed monkey faces and are ugly. Especially the Japanese in the island country are really too ugly p>
There is no way to deal with natural disasters, so the games we make have to pursue the Western Baroque style. The local ones are too crude and inhumane, so the characters have to change their Western names. Japan's game industry is mainly for developed countries in Europe and the United States. People in developed countries have money and can afford handheld consoles. How can we Chinese, who have so little income, have the money to buy handheld consoles? Play more crappy online games. Japanese games are generally handheld games. We Chinese people are too poor to afford them. Only people in developed countries in Europe and the United States can afford them. Therefore, the Japanese game market is mainly for Europe and the United States, and the content must be Europeanized in order to arouse the appetite of European and American customers. Then there is the unity of ideology. Japan, Europe and the United States are both developed countries, and they will definitely come up with games that suit the tastes of players in developed countries. This is why the characters in Japanese games look like Westerners.
