Likely. Mainly because I don't expect the word of mouth to be good given the shallow characters/story/quests/combat

What do you mean? The reviews arent too shabby, or do they not count as word of mouth.

im pretty sure we are gonna be swarmed with "i played XBX and its the greatest thing evah"-like threads, so i wouldnt be worried about the word of mouth not being loud enough. Which is great... No more Splatoon threads hurray!

Nah, Splatoon will sell another million soon and T.Bone will be there every step of the way :)

In my definition (maybe I'm wrong), "word of mouth" is the opinion of the final consumer only

plus Nintendo is really advertising the game here.

Serious question: are they? I haven't seen a single ad for the thing, and we're only a week away from release.


I've seen multiple ads on twitch daily starting about four days ago.

For a JRPG this day and age over 1 million is a big success.  I believe the best selling JRPG this gen to date it Final Fantasy Type-0 with 680k in sales on PS4.

Hundred+ Fetch quests apparently. So why such a big world?

For PS4 maybe, but if you mean the whole 8th generation then it's POKEMON X/Y (14.5 million).

Whoo boy, based on the localization changes, we're also going to see a lot of plot holes and names that don't necessarily fit in.

Taking words that actually have a motif to them - like "Doll," or the acronym for BLADE - and stripping them of all their meaning by replacing them with terms that don't even fit the original meaning is just insulting the audience.

And, don't forget about the music. I listened to the Doll riding music once after I found out what it was, and...let's just say that I was royally pissed off.



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
