Sweet Baby Inc. and the Steam Curator Group Conspiracy - The company that is responsible for the diarrheic video game writing.

[TrainWreckWatcher]

Thats what I'm saying though, the dudes fame KINDA just fell into his fucking lap. He was a literal fucking "who?" before they tried shutting his steam group down, and grew kinda famous overnight....and you are mad at him for partaking in that?
I don't get it, what would you want him to do otherwise? delete all social medias? Seems to me you are upset at him capitalizing on drama that was thrust upon him, and if thats "grifting" then grifting doesn't mean much.

Yeah I'd prefer he respectfully abstain from the spotlight, stick to doing his group as he was doing it, and not go around making a mountain out of an anthill if he isn't equipped to handle the shit that comes with it.
I won't deny this was shined on him against his will. But there are better ways to handle it than putting on the clown makeup. End of the day I'm not gonna change what he's doing but I can not like it.
Lets move on from it as we're just going to go in circles.

Its all good, I'm not trying to crucify you or anything, I just didn't get it. I suppose I can see how you mean, but at the same time, when the light is forced on you, simply slinking into the shadows isn't a good look, and would only make the people protesting SBI bs look bad by association. I don't realistically think he did anything bad, sure maybe he was under-prepared in some aspects, But I think him doing as you suggest would of been more negative for everyone, frankly.

Anything named something this harmless is concealing something. "Sweet Baby" means disgusting concealed agenda.

I can't blame a poor BR dude milking his 15 minutes for every American cent.

I hate to break it to you but you’re not his mum.

It's also a blatant misunderstanding of their culture. These people do not rock the boat. They do not publicly state their most blatant opinions, it's always tactful responses and polite by our standards. For somebody that wanted to visit Japan so badly I figured he would have known that.

You're right that he should have gone to arcades and shit asking their opinions. You're more likely to get an honest answer in that scenario.

According to the YouTube commenters, this completely valid explanation is "cope."

Just a simple observation of American street interviews and Japanese (and Korean and other Asian countries) street interviews on YouTube would show there are clear differences between the cultures and the temperament of the people. While the majority of both citizens would be fence-sitters and sugarcoat their opinions, Americans tend to have more outliers who express their opinion without a filter in public (that's how you get all the TikTok clickbaits). Interviews in Japan tend to be more plain/safe/tactful and you're less likely to find the extremist takes.

However, we know for a fact that Asians are capable of controversial opinions.

We see it in the 2ch boards where they talk about Korean conspiracy theories and how they try sniff out Koreans who pretend to be Japanese by adopting a Japanese name. Just like how we try to dig up a troon's deadname, the Japs try to dig up the Korean's deadname. Also similar to how (((White))) people drop their -berg/-stein name for a more White-sounding name.

We also see it in Korean message boards where the feminists are even more extreme than ours, and the anti-feminists in response to the feminazis, also have more balls than ours. Similar to how our leftists here think that the okay hand symbol is a right wing conspiracy, the anti-feminists in Korean think that the "pinch" hand symbol is a feminist conspiracy and have successfully protested game developers to remove it. Good luck finding the extremists of either side in a street interview though.

Bringing it back to the topic, just because Kabrutus couldn't find anyone that disapproves of Assassin's Creed Shadows does not mean they don't exist (we already have a few criticisms of the tatami mats etc)

There are a few Japanese YouTube channels that would go over Western PS3 games and make fun of Western portrayals of Japan. There's no English subtitles but you should get the point from the visual.

I just remembered, pretty sure you can be sued for saying anything mean about a company in Japan. I imagine that also throttles their opinions.

As a leftist simp for billion dollar corps, I think we should import this law.

Not exactly. You can be sued if you say something that's considered to harm the reputation of another person or business, even if it's true. Libel laws are insane here.

"Truth as a Defense: Japan’s libel laws do not recognize truth as a defense, meaning that even if the statement is true, it can still be considered libelous if it causes harm to the individual’s reputation".

yeah the people in the video basically told him that this is a joke, but i guess people can't read between the lines anymore.

the same is in jurisdiction too. the most heinous laws usually have the most harmless names.

It operates on the same logic as music festivals. Hellfest or whatever might be relatively safe but in Woodstock or any music festival ran by hippies, the love and peace crowd will start slaughtering nearby cattle in drug influenced frenzy the moment they run out of munchies.

I get the sentiment he was going for in doing street interviews, but it's one of those things that not everyone would be aware of, or even give a shit about if they do in the first place. it's not like literally every single person on a japanese street corner gives a fuck about some samurai game. for this to be effective he'd have to go somewhere game related. whether a store, or arcade or a gaming cafe or something and ask those dudes they're more likely to have any sort of opinion either way.

reading the comments on the Japanese trailer translated is hilarious. you can tell when it's probably a pissed off westerner pretending to be japanese, and when it's actually japanese people who are angry. the actual japanese guys say insane funny stuff like ARE THEY DECLARING WAR ON ALL MEN IN ASIA?! BLACK SAMURAI FICTION BULLSHIT! and westerners say talking points about DEI and stuff that your average japanese person would never probably bring up because that isn't something they deal with as systematically as us to know the specific terms to use to talk about it. they'd just say they replaced us with a black guy, they wouldn't be rambling about cultural appropriation or whatever.

the general consensus from them is overwhelmingly negative though on that video. they aren't pissed they're making a negro samurai game but they're pissed that they finally got a japan set assassins creed and their choices of players are a nigger and a woman. alongside the fact tons of them are offended the creators said they used a black guy because they don't get asian perspectives or something.

I forgot to link the Ubisoft Japan AC so here it is:

A few foreigners have invaded the comments section but they're mostly transparent about their character.
I'm just scrolling down and you've got:

スウェーデン人です。a Swede
私はベルギー人 a Berugi? dunno
俺は台湾人 a Taiwanese
私は韓国人です a Korean
中国人です。a Chinese
私はフィリピン出身です。a Filipino
日本人です。a Japanese
私はフィンランド人で a Finn
タイ人です。a Thai
アメリカ人として an American
私はトルコ人として a Torko?
イラン人として an Iranian

I'm actually surprised this diverse group of people found their way to the Japanese trailer.

It's safe to say that most of the commenters are Japanese because:
1) they have Japanese sounding usernames
2) their username is @User-textandnumbers because their actual username is in the Japanese text and YouTube can't show them
3) their bio, playlist, subscriptions and profile pic/banner pic are related to Japan/Japanese

because you know, just in case leftists/wokists claim that all of these commenters are astroturfed or bots.

Allow me to help here:

"Berugi" is Belgian.
"Torko" is Turkish. A Turkroach, if you will.

My Japanese fairly sucks, but something I found funny here:

This part here -> 私は <- is "watashi wa" (I am/As a), they're essentially saying what they are, or what they're speaking as, & it is the most basic-ass greeting one can refer to himself with in Japanese. As seen to be used by the Belgian, Korean, Filipino, Finn, & Turkroach.

But, the American, Iranian & also the Turkroach use this -> 人として <- (Hito to shite), which roughly stands for "as a person", so the Turkish one is the most formal by literally saying "I say this as a Turkish person".

Meanwhile, the actual Japanese just casually says (nihon-jin desu - I'm Japanese), same with the Chinese (chugoku-jin desu), the Thai (tai-jin desu), & even the Swede. They all use -> 人です <- (hito desu), alongside their nationality.

But, the Taiwanese is the most blunt of all, with the -> 俺は <- (ore wa), that's rough informal self-adressal. This was one blunt chigga here, like, a real mean chigger.

IDK why, I just found it intriguing.

 

[David Kirk Ginder]

indeed I will

I think it's just the way Japanese is taught. One of the first things you are taught is watashi wa amerika jin desu (I am American). But if you think about it, why do you have to specify yourself? We know who you're referring to when you say American. So we can get rid of the watashi wa part completely. The closest you can get to shortening it in English is "I'm American."

Another thing you are taught immediately is watashi no namae wa david desu (My name is David). If you see someone say this, there's a 100% chance they are non-Japanese. You can just shorten it to David desu (I'm David).

Maybe the machine translation is forcing the watashi wa onto everything. Same with to shite. People on message boards always say "as a Black person," "as a woman," "as a Democrat voter" etc so the machine translation also picks up on this.

Depends on formality. Theres like a stack ranking based on age, social standing, profession, and more you need to tailor speech to if you are doing it properly.

Sort of like calling the law "USA PATRIOT" when it was an act of blatant treason.
