According to Pure PlayStation on Twitter, Stellar Blade is the #1 selling PSN game in 19 countries/regions. I will be surprised if it's not very high sales wise in Circana/NPD charts for April even with it releasing at the end of the month.

Side Note: My request to have the 26th-28th off from work was approved so I will be buying the $80 Digital Deluxe Edition of Stellar Blade and will be playing the game that entire weekend. Woohoo!! Let's go baby!!! 😂

I think the Japanese physical sales will be a big surprise for this game, I think it may beat out FFXVI as the best selling PS5 exclusive

I hope that there will be no censorship in the game itself, because Sony is quite famous for censoring PlayStation games.

It might even beat Nier Automata which sold like 8 million

in the west, characters aren't more realistic then in the east. it is just video games, you can do whatever shit you want what you can't in real life. that's simple.

The problem with west is that they give too much importance to idiots in social sciences, my asian mom took out her slippers when I mentioned that I was thinking about to major in history. In college the most useless people with tons of time on their hands were the humanities majors, those in engineering school had no time to waste on pseudo activism of these zealots. This translates to the real world workforce too, its always the useless marketing and hr roles these trash fill up, roles in which they have too much time on their hands doing nothing

A smart/safe take for the studio leader, especially when you realize that he's talking to an industry full of angry nerds spread across the socio political spectrum.

This guy is successful galvanizing left-leaning people to gain notoriety. I guess it's just a matter of time till he launches a YouTube channel.
Don't know much about him but I've seen him here and there.

I think he's some hated middle man from a dev team. He's gone full grifter recently.
Honestly him grifting has at least given exposure to the SBI detected curator list, one good thing to come out of this shitshow of idiots from both sides. I was going to buy a couple of games on the list, saved me from giving money to loons
