Is FF13 still a good excuse for FF15 poor performance in Japan?

Japanese core gamers hate squenix, but squenix games are still some of the best selling games in ps4, vita, and 3ds. Dont you see the problem there? ppl dont buy things that they hate. You wanna knw a real good example of hate? Take a look at NMS and refunds.

Oh wait, maybe i misintepret your comment. Anyone that doesnt hate squenix must be a casual gamer.

okeydokie. lol

who would've thought. declining sales numbers is seen as a smashing success for some. you believe what you want ok? lets move on.

There are many factors that contribute to that, but we'll leave that on other thread.

I dont think japanese really hate squenix. They just hate anything that damage the image of their country (in this case FF13). Remember those japanese journalists that were killed by ISIS. Japan actually scorned those journalist. They were labeled as troublemakers putting japan into world news for all the wrong reasons (source: TIME). FF13 and japanese gamers realationship is kinda similar with those two journalists and japanese countrymen
