You're the one telling people that their anecdotal evidence is rubbish here, stifling discussion in a thread based on anecdotal evidence.

Perhaps you should actually read what you copy and paste. Or is Nioh being on sale "anywhere" also somehow equally relevant? So hypocritical.. even after the fact.

An anecdote is a short account of an incidence. Amazon has hourly, monthly, and yearly rankings. A month and a year are not 'short' accounts by any means. Therefore, Amazon's rankings are not anecdotal evidence. Ultimately, the one who is stifling the discussion is you since you have incorrectly understood what an anecdote is.

You're right about that.

It's still a very vague system of just rankings with no hard numbers. A ranking system which, if you can confirm, has absoloutly no bearing on the estimation methodology of this very site. Still absolutely no point in dismissing anecdotal evidence as "rubbish" in the first place.
