That's one way to lose business.

 

[Pics_nao]

Well, I'm pretty sure they aren't far off the mark.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Whoooo boy this going to be good.

 

[LiK]

dang

 

[Sai-kun]

that definitely sounds like what fans of doax3 will say

 

[TriAceJP]

Both sides of this are ridiculous.

 

[Bladenic]

Who?

 

[Andrefpvs]

That's one way to lose business.

Or to sell a few extra copies from all the quotes that tweet with the purchase link is gonna get.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Jesus that is savage..! I saw the other tweet too

 

[tehfryguy]

Was there a tumblr campaign against this game?

 

[BakkaGames]

Now I know where not to buy a game of I ever need to import something from Japan.

 

[Giever]

I doubt they'll lose business over it. Rather, it's probably a somewhat calculated decision to pander towards that demographic.

 

[kswiston]

Did anyone even buy the second game in the west?

 

[RMI]

glad I ordered the JP version from amiami.

 

[TimmiT]

Time for Play-Asia to fire their social media guy.

 

[CronoShot]

Social Justice Warriors, for those who don't know.

Spoiler

I had to look it up.

 

[DNAbro]

Childish

 

[TheGeniusArcana]

Yup. It's those dang SJWs. Totally not the fact that DOAX2 sits at 245k sold WORLDWIDE.

 

[antitrop]

Controversy leads to more sales, they're just making up some fucking bullshit boogeyman.

 

[Usobuko]

It's ironic that Playasia don't understand that 'SJW 'is probably helping the almost non-existent of Asian representation in Western media and is also one of those rare retail outlet that benefit from stocking the DOAX3 english edition.

 

[Lothar]

Why would they lose business?

 

[hwy_61]

I'm offended.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Well I won't be buying from them again lol
Who actually using "SJW" in a non ironic way?

 

[Tomat]

Did anyone even buy the second game in the west?

Unfortunately.

It was shit.

 

[jabuseika]

Both sides of this are ridiculous.

Both sides?

One side prevented the other from enjoying a video game. A video game.

Spoiler

Not like it was going to sell much anyway.

 

[James Scott]

I wonder if he'll lose his job or if it's just Play Asia catering to their audience.
The replies dont seem to indicate that, though.

 

[KZXcellent]

Alright the kyaaa at the end of the last tweet made laugh way too hard.

 

[BY2K]

Well, I'm pretty sure they aren't far off the mark.

How can you even say that...

 

[Monado Blade]

That pic... are those sour plums?

 

[Warxard]

AmiAmi it is, then.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

I doubt they'll lose business over it. Rather, it's probably a somewhat calculated decision to pander towards that demographic.

The shitbrian demographic.

One side prevented the other from enjoying a video game. A video game.

Nope, but please, keep beating that drum. I'm sure the female incursion will happen one day and you'll be able to tell us all how you were right.

 

[batrush]

Lmao

 

[Sai-kun]

This is probably as good a time as any to remind people about the 'SJW to Skeleton' google chrome addon lmao

Both sides?

One side prevented the other from enjoying a video game. A video game.

source?

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Alright the kyaaa at the end of the last tweet made laugh way too hard.

Haha i just saw that!!

 

[johnnydrama]

I just looked up that game, and even though I find some of the stuff like FemFreq a bit annoying, I'm not comfortable with what I've seen at all. Get fucked, Play-Asia.

 

[RM8]

Uh, it's better for their business that this happened.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

I wonder if this is just so they'll get more exposure.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Both sides?

One side prevented the other from enjoying a video game. A video game.

Do you HONESTLY believe that's why it's not coming West? Some Twitter complaints?

 

[partyphone]

Both sides of this are ridiculous.

wait what are the sides?

 

[Crossing Eden]

Well I won't be buying from them again lol
Who actually using "SJW" in a non ironic way?

An alarming amount of people on the internet.

How can you even say that...

Because literally the last thing that would stop a game from coming to the west is the devs themselves. Nah bruh, it was the evil sjws and feminists all along! /s

 

[Its Quite Toasty]

The shitbrian demographic.

who is this shitBrian?

 

[Kindekuma]

Ooooooh man. Here we go.

 

[mgs2master2]

damn....


still got it preordered on play-asia, but thats kinda vicious

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Yup. It's those dang SJWs. Totally not the fact that DOAX2 sits at 245k sold WORLDWIDE.

To be fair Vita market was not a thing back then.

 

[Aeana]

Better alternatives to Play-Asia:

HMV Japan
Amiami

Pay Japanese retail prices, and considering the current exchange rate, you get an even bigger advantage.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

AmiAmi it is, then.

I don't see why you wouldn't go with AmiAmi for new releases anyway. Prices are so much better than P-A.

However since AmiAmi is a Japanese store, I'm not sure they'd have the Asian English version.

 

[KZXcellent]

kyaaa aside even though it's a pretty dumb series of tweets this won't stop me from buying the occasional thing from PlayAsia. I didn't even know they HAD a twitter account, haha

Also, DOAX3 is coming to the West. This is all a big marketing scam I just know it!

 

[nckillthegrimace]

who is this shitBrian?

He runs the play-asia twitter.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Well, I'm pretty sure they aren't far off the mark.

And you know this how? An episode of South Park?

 

[AcademicSaucer]

BRB pre-ordering from Play Asia
