Hello, I know I'm a little late/early but I wanted to make this poll because I came into this series thinking it was video games Shirobako (I still like the show). This show does lean more on the C.G.D.C.T side than the game making.
I was wondering what other people thought.

I'm satisfied with the direction of this show. Although they don't show the technical aspects of their work in detail, you can still have a general idea of what the video game creation process is like.

But where this show shines is the characters and their interactions with each other. Everything is too damn cute in this show and that's just the way I like it.

Since it's my favourite show in the season, I wouldn't want it to be anything besides what we've got.

Don't get me wrong, I still like the show, but moments like tea breaks make New Game feel like it cares more on cute girls than video games which makes the video game devlopment setting feel a little superficial. I came into the show with wrong expectations because I love Shirobako and I would love to see a video games version of it.

It does have both. There's even a line "the part timers can't work on weekends because they would get paid more than you", which is pretty interesting. I'm not sure if the anime has gotten to that part yet, though. I personally loved the manga and while it does have a very CGDCT feel, what it does show about the video game industry is interesting and fun to watch. It's written by someone who used to be in the industry and, like K-On! and Comic Girls, is sort of a moe version of his experience (the mangaka are usually men). Write about what you know and make it cute so it will sell. I think that's a pretty good way to go and in my opinion he does a good job of that.

It's just another boring CGDCT, only difference is that girls are adult (yet they still could pass as schoolgirls).

I heard there is some more developments later on with characters (for season 2).
The game making itself won't go that detailed and that's fine, cause it would be boring since they are on the pc all day.

only focusing on game making would be so boring to watch. even shirobako involves with alot of comedic moments. also new game's original work is a four panel manga which in general four panel manga=a popular manga format among moe genre

There's no need to change. I get mostly of what I expected, which is a CGDCT with typically mediocre comedy, and I don't expect too much about the technical aspects about video game making. I expect more about character interaction. I don't expect Shirobako-type bombarding of info.
The only things I don't expect are the high amounts of fanservice and the yuri-ish tendencies.

it probably would have been better with more work scenes. the characters and CGDCT scenes aren't enough to carry the show for me.

As much as I like the CGDCT parts, I want to see more of the game-making parts, it feels nice to learn something new in anime, as doing that via reading books or watching tutorial video is boring

I'm satisfied with how things are and it is exactly what I expected. Cute characters, SoL, comedy, and great animation.

Focusing on the game making I personally would find boring.

Well, we won't get in depth knowledge of game making, for sure. So it's mostly... 80% of cute things.

Maybe they focused in game making at 10-12 episode

If you think it have too much moe,i'll be agree with you but too much moe is from the source itself .So please blame the mangaka ,not this anime

I'm fine with it as is. I actually would have much preferred if it was full out yuri and not subtext as that is just a living hell to deal with specially when they throw it in your face so blatantly.

Yuri + Game making = perfection.

As it is now though, it's a really fun anime and quite possibly my favorite of the season along with the Danganronpa(s).

I like it the way it is now
it could use more Yuri tho

Umm.. I'm fine the way it is now. Well, from the cover alone I could tell that this series is going to be mostly CGDCT. Not to mention since it's an adaptation of 4 koma manga from Manga Time Kirara Carat.

Seriously though, by reading some reviews I could see that some people just have an over expectation. This is not going to be Shirobako nor based on real life company. This is a fictional anime of girls doing cute things in a game company.
