Well, to be fair, if you're going to quote me, you should actually quote what I said. I never said SEGA was NEVER good.
But I was a bit vague. SEGA is no longer good. They were good. But that was decades ago. What's good about them now? Their old IPs that they have all but abandoned don't make them a good developer today. Sonic games have been received very poorly in the last 10 years, and what else have they developed? Publishing Bayonetta for the PS360 isn't the same: they didn't make the game.
So my question again, what was the last good game that SEGA developed? Aside from Valkaria Chronicles, which admittedly, I forgot about (and I'm not even sure they developed it), there isn't a single one.
Appreciate the clarification!
As I said in a prior comment, subjectivity is obviously a factor that comes into play. It also depends on what you mean by "recently". If you mean games that came out last year, yeah, their releases were severely lacking (
only 3 games have their names attributed to the company). One of the main games that seem to be on their plate nowadays, aside from the Sonic series, is the Hatsune Miku series which is more likely targeted towards people in Japan. For reference:
"The [Hatsune Miku] series has been popular among fans in Japan, having sold over 1 million copies as of April 2012 in Japan alone. In July 2014, Sega announced that the franchise has sold a total of 2.5 million games within Japan. As of November 2014 the franchise has sold 4.5 million units at retail and downloads."
So at this point, that series is one of the main things, aside from Sonic, that keeps the company afloat. I don't get the appeal of Hatsune Miku, but Japan does, so eh.
