how many units will shadows sell in Japan given that it was #1 on amazon Japan when the preorder was announced
>>
>>683806924
Won't reach top 10 in its launch week. Only pvt. Ramirez will buy it.
>>
>>683806924
Considering Ubisoft won’t even tell their own investors actual preorder numbers, any sales numbers they relinquish are going to be laughably inflated.
>>
>>683807271
I don't think AAA companies disclose pre-orders before a game has been released. I'm struggling to remember the last time this has happened

How much are these faggot journalist going to backpedal on this game? They’ve moved the goalpost so many times it’s incredible. The fact they keep defending this corporate product speaks volumes about this being purely ideological and biased on their end.
>>
>>683806924
are games "journalists" literally incapable of telling the truth?

This thing has blown up so bad that the professor that underwrote the history of the game lost his position at his university, and his entire curriculum has been wiped from the school.

>>683808208
Yeah, because he wasn't. People seem to think you can be hired as a samurai, while in truth you needed the Emperor to approve it. Nobunaga couldn't make Toyotomi Hideyoshi a samurai, one of his most competent and trusted man, there's no way in hell he could. Hideyoshi only became a Samurai when he got adopted in the Konoe family, which he did by threatening them, and that was after Nobunaga died. Only Tokugawa Ieyasu ended up having the power to make someone a Samurai thanks to his connections to the Emperor, hence why William Adams got to become Samurai while Yasuke, even if he turned out to be as important as people make him out to be on Twitter, never could.

Why should it? It's not a government tier matter.

Then tell the samurai police.

Maybe not the nigger (it is still trying to rewrite history), but the banners they used on the game have copyright, and in japan they are really bitches about copyright issues.
>>
>>683810461
This honestly.

Please understand that in spite of all the mindless whining you do, no matter how much of your free time you dedicate to shitposting about your hurt feelings, even if you pour all your little incel butthurt out onto your keyboard
- this game will still feature the Black samurai Yasuke as its protagonist
- this game will still be critically acclaimed
- this game will still sell tens of millions of copies as the long awaited Japanese Assassin's Creed

None of your hateful parade will have *any* consequence on this game. There is not a single thing you can achieve. Your incel outrage is beyond impotent.

Probably not many. Assassin's Creed is niche in Japan

the government is obviously unbothered because it's a game, universities and historians are though

>>683814408
That's just an archival page with all the published content. It doesn't indicate employment, just search terms, bibliography and subject covered.

The election of Trump in 2016 says otherwise.

Attention whores, Anon. They don't get any irl so they result to farming (You)s through blatant engagement bait posts that are so obviously meant to provoke people and get a reaction.

so you're just assuming all of this based on him deleting his social media? did the university actually say anything?
>>
>>683814672
"Just a game! It doesn't matter!" Cries the disingenuous kike desperately trying to ban or at least censor anything Japanese for increasingly asinine reasons.
>>
>>683814983
It indicates his qualifications, it says "researcher."
>>
>>683815070
Deleting his internet presence is indicative of something wrong. Surely the great Thomas Locksley would maintain his social media if he were not in any trouble.

Your stupidity is amazing:
>THIS GUY JUST DISAPPEARED FROM THE INTERNET
>NO BIGGY HE'S STILL EMPLOYED!
Oh yeah that is totally a move by someone "winning". EL EM AYE OH

>>683815420
either way people are saying his page was deleted but I haven't seen any indication of that. does anyone have a url to the page that was removed? maybe an archive link so we can compare? it just seems like people are saying stuff without any evidence

maybe he deleted his social media because chuds were harassing him

Heh yeah, it's weird how normal people don't give a single fuck about this whole ordeal because they have actual things to worry about.

>>683808208
Samurai were basically the nobility of the warrior class, there was a lot of politics associated with being a samurai and the position tended to be passed down to sons like other kinds of nobility.
Naturally random fucking people didn't become samurai.

Snoy is that dead in japan.
Even GoT right now is #1 with 800 copies this month or something like that.
Literal xbone controller skus people use for PC gaming sell more in japan than snoy games these days.
>>
>>683815767
The position was hereditary. The only other way to become one is to make extraordinary deeds to the shogun or whoever could name someone a samurai, like what happened with william.
>>
>>683806924
>it was #1 on amazon Japan when the preorder was announced
This always happens. The keyword is "when the preorder was announced". 100 people buying the game the second preorders open puts it at #1.
Doesn't seem there were many more people preordering afterwards.
>>
>>683816473
That's usually when people buy preorders though. It's not like a released game where there is a steady trickle of buyers. People usually pre-order when the game is announced and maybe there will be spikes with a new trailer or closer to the game release. An apples to apples comparison would be to look at all preorders and see where it ranks there

#1 in PS5 sales, which is meaningless. It only sold 400+ copies which is nothing. Hell, half of it was actually probably gaijin and ubishart itself.
It's been going down the charts since the gameplay trailer, it is down to something like 50+ on PS5 sales and 14th page on the Japanese PS. The game is sure to flop.
>>683815976
Commiefornia Snoy killed it purposefully. They want nothing to do with Japan and its conservative values
