Quantity does not equal quality.

Now, quality is subjective and you may believe that those games have greater quality, but sales would argue that other people disagree.


Quantity does not equal quality but it contributes to the quality of a game. 
Would you rather play one great 5h game or one good 80h game?

The great 5 hour game. I'm crazy busy IRL and would much rather have a shorter, but better game.

Let's be fair to FFXV, they still haven't even started doing the advertising in the stores yet. I expect that to be changing within the next week or two. (FYI: I live in Tokyo, but I follow a band and was in Niigata two weeks ago. They haven't started pushing FFXV yet.0

The Tokyo game shops and the conbinis haven't even put out the placards to pick up the game yet. You can order it online in 7-11, and occasionally you can see a little ad on the register, but they aren't selling the other expected goods yet. I expect there to be an explosion by the end of October.

At big store, as Bic or Yodo, there are ads and some weeks ago at Sofmap in Akiba the front of the building was covered with a giant KINGSLAVE poster. Little shops are worrisome since they started but the space is very small. I supposed a good start for October, but I guess early November will be when Square starts to take this sh*t seriously.

The Akiba was probably because that is right where they decided to put the new Square Enix Cafe. It is really nice and is really pushing FFXV for the next few weeks. I went into my local BIC in Shinjuku and I found a very small space for it with the metal cover of the delux edition and one or two little things, but otherwise nada. Maybe they amped it up since I went in last week, I dunno. I expect them to start losing their minds very, very soon.

Charts are a lot more lively now. Pokemon waking from its slumber and leading the hype.



I cannot imagine toilet-free life.

Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.

Thank you and horuhe for your anecdotes.
