Basically, the studio is ceasing to exist. The staff will simply be dispersed into other teams in Square Enix.
Back me up!

Which either means the cancer has been cut out or is just going to infect other teams now. I guess we just have to wait and see.

Names you can change, bone structure you can change too, but that's much more expensive and the dude doesn't appear to have that kind of money.

So does anybody have intel on this kiryu guy? Everyone is sort of cautiously optimistic, but have no idea what the hell his track record is.
Basically is he hands off or hands on with decision making, transactions and censorship?

That was last year, but well after the point that NFTs had become a dirty word, and I think Ubisoft had already backed away from their plans.

Sápmi(the land of the Same) stretches across northern norway, sweden, finland and the Kola bay of russia. They originated from the northern nomad tribes that wandered around Siberia and the northern parts of the continent and traditionally they had a slightly asian appearance, but different.
This is among the funniest things I've ever seen, news coverage of the Same election. For sensitivity reasons they seem to have attached the microphone to a... How is this not a Borat-like segment?

Some people weren't around when JRPGs were being dragged by mainstream gaming press and have no clue why some devs felt slieghted by the term, so I want you to take this 2006 Baten Kaitos Origins "review" from X-play as an example. Salvaged from the internet archive:

Iirc that time period being talked about, that Yoshi-P is saying when he first heard the term, that was when JRPGs were in a notable slump after the PS2. FF13 was a thing that was obviously hated in the west, Skyrim took the western world by storm. I don't fully remember the full extent of discourse back then, but I do remember people finding JRPGs to effectively be old hat and that stuff like Skyrim or Fallout were to be the next big movers and shakers of the RPG genre going forward.View attachment 4706368

So it was at probably the arguably lowest point in JRPG history that the term was first heard in Japan itself, so I can kind of see his perspective as back then being a "J"RPG was an indictment that it was going be some cringey shitty garbage linear turn based rpg you've seen 700 times, doesn't allow for "meaningful choice", and is too old.
Which that is kind of true today too if you see some discourse around things like newer Xenoblade games for being quirky weeb trash or KH3 being too confusing, but obviously with the somewhat recent mainstream acceptance of anime complaining that something is "anime" isn't really quite the insult that it used to be back then. That and the mainstream WRPGs have to my knowledge entered their own slump too given the state of Bioware and Besthesda in the last five or years.
Beatmania came out before Guitar Hero, and was more of a DDR copy.

Beatmania came out in 1997. DDR came out in 1998. BMIIDX, the beatmania that EVERYONE knows, came out in 1999. Vanilla Beatmania and it's sister series Beatmania III were retired in favor of BMIIDX
Regardless which came first, and this is a point I'm trying to tell @Pissmaster here, they're still not Guitar Hero ripoffs at the end of the day as they came out a decade prior, even if they are rhythm games.

The cancer is mostly the american and english screenwritters they hired. The game was written by 4 westerners.
Hopefully the japanese devs land ok but the japanese executives that made that decision should be made commit seppuku on livestream as punishment.
