Heteronormativity

Better yet, just normativity in general

AAA anyway

Actually, even JP games can be awfully normative. But they usually present it with bright colors at least.

Lots of shoehorned hyperpartisan politics in western made AAA games.

Not to mention western dev's obsession with making games more movie-like and frankly boring

The West tends to dislike sex, like angst, and like shooters. Most western programmers can't program a worthwhile boss fight either.

I think Rare was just about the only western dev whose games I actually gave a shit about...

Maybe LucasArts

They're not. At least not for me and millions of other players.

And hey, believe it or not, there are millions of players who love both western and japanese games!

Both types of cultures have great games. Everything else is personal preference.
To each their own.

Ehh I prefer western overall. Not fan of dating Sims and jrpgs.

I only like the Japanese action game like dmc and some of the zelda games.

That's kind of a generalization. You could say the same thing about Japanese games all having an anime style.
