That's both funny and sad. I guess I didn't realize just how much of a religion Playstation worship has become. The data is the data. A person could love Nintendo, but they had to accept that the Wii U was a total flop. Now it's obvious that PS5 is not doing well at all in Japan, Playstation fans are going to need to come to a similar realization. I guess the saddest part is that a mod chose a side. |
Agreed.

I thought I made one here too. It was on Resetera. I basically was saying lifetime (ship+digital) but it was in the Famitsu threads and I made a thread asking everyone what they think would win. It’s a good read I’ll post it here 🔜 edit: https://www.resetera.com/threads/what-will-sell-more-in-japan-demon-slayer-or-metroid-dread-teamdemon-vs-teamalien.487282/ |
That's an interesting thread. I don't have a really good sense of how Demon Slayer will do though (at least on PS4). It could sell somewhat less than Metroid Dread, or it might blow it away. It feels like a wildcard.
I am shocked by the number of people who think the PS5 version will outsell Metroid though. Demon Slayer is a mainstream IP and not really for hardcore gamers. It's not going to sell well on the PS5. It will probably be 25% (or less) of lifetime sales of the PS4 version. The PS4 version though, might do really well. I wouldn't be shocked to see a hardware bump for PS4 the week Demon Slayer is released.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6
My Threads:
Master Thread, Game of the Year/Decade
Switch Will Be #1 All Time
Zelda Will Outsell Mario (Achieved)
How Much Will MH Rise sell?
My Bet With Metallox

I talked with them, there is like 4 people I think doing the applications and doing a dozen or so a day? There are currently almost 400 members with I think 500+ waiting to get approved o.O

Butthurt definitely played a big part in the fallout. The PlayStation community on ResetEra had rallied hard against the Media Create threads and its community because the sales numbers didn't put PS in a favorable light. The trolls got backed up by the mod team under the guise of MC threads being a toxic and unwelcoming place, which then led to heavyhanded moderation of all the wrong people. Once the dust had settled and the PS community could have it's supposed more welcoming Media Create discussions, it turned out that there's no interest in discussing Japanese sales numbers among the PS community and so sales threads on ResetEra have lower activity levels than on Install Base despite Era having hundreds of times more users than the new upstart. But the mission was accomplished and the PS community on Era can live in its desired bubble that shields it from reality. |
Well said

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
Hopefully the new upstart can drain resetera a bit. The latter really is one of the most toxic gaming forums out there, which is saying a lot.

Ouch, and this is the reason why we have the forum. Butthurt is it? Nah I think it’s something else, but what can it be I wonder |
Yes it is. The OP got a one day ban and couldn't handle it (lmao). Apparently the MC thread thought they were above moderation, despite countless infractions and other community members complaining about them (even mods said this).
Whats even funnier is the whole hostility came from Tales of Arise. For weeks before the echochamber was confident that Tales of Arise would flop. In reality, ToA became the fastest selling Takes game of all time. Similar to MHW, this just showed the rest of the forum not to take them seriously.
Have you not read threads outside MC? Everyone dunks on the MC crew.

You don't know what you are talking about.
The MC threads, really even during the Neogaf days, were seen as a joke by the rest of the forum as an echochamber of Nintendo delusions. Bringing great threads like WiiU is going to dominate Japan, MHW is going to sell less than MH Tri etc .
MHW was really the breaking point, that showed the entire forum which was dealing with their takes for months, how biased and wrong they were.
Ahh yes, another dozen pages on why Harada is concocting an anti-Nintendo cabal, or why the Nintendo fan thinks every JP game should be on Nintendo. Such riveting discussion. 99% of those threads were useless. There was at best 1% data driven analysis. Really the only use was posting data.
Which is why a collated database that can be queried is far more useful than another MC thread made by the same people who made the prior echochamber
Fun fact they actually did an apology in the end for the moderation, which makes your story invalid once again, stop talking shit
Just took ages because of the mods have the biggest ego i have ever encountered, and seeing as i experienced ssj12 that says enough

No more like the moderators behaved disgracefully and so a lot of people wanted nothing to do with the site anymore. If it was just being upset about being banned then 2 moderators wouldn't have had to quit over the incident. When you have moderators calling users "cunts" and "manbabies" and saying that they have a user in mind they are hoping they can ban you know it's a pile of crap.
The moderator that banned him was literally shit-talking him and gloating in discord before the ban. Completely unprofessional and I wouldn't want anything to do with the site either if I was involved in that.
Moderators should not be insulting users and hoping they can hand out bans. It's 100% their fault.
Acceptable mod behaviour: ?
I suggest we make a deal, for each BS story src you deliver, you take a ban but for each normal post we will not mock the shit out of you hell ill even drop the cliff narrative
