Japan has long been known for shit tastes, why does this surprise you?
I assume its because Japan absolutely has nothing like it, and PC shooters don't take off. So when one has teams so friends can play, and a different style than anything available, it takes off.
Because you can make girl characters with schoolgirl uniforms
Aren't LoL and PUBG both owned by Asian companies?
Probably why
Maybe it has something to do with this.
>hey vee why do people like dis game huh!?!?!?
>"BATTLE ROYALE THEME PUSHES PUBG TO #1 IN JAPAN" literally the 3rd sentence in the post
sometimes people on here confuse me.
Japan has every shooter we've ever got, really. It's not like they don't have access to the same games we do, they just don't really like them much.
noone in japan plays on p except for westcucks. Its obvious those peolle will have a similar taste to the west.
Japs have no taste
Very few people use PC in japan as a gaming platform and most people who do only play these simple online games or VNs on them.
Just because this game dominates the nonexistent PC market in Japan that doesn't mean the game is popular there compared to other games.
good for them, at least they don't have to play nip garbage games
>Why do japanese love PUGB so much?
How many other shooters are 3rd person with multiplayer?
Japs like most asians can't play FPS due to motion sickness
yall might not be aware of this, but modern young japanese culture is not much unlike ours. We have an almost identical spectrum of values (from far left internationalists, to the far right nationalists)
it's actually really cool meeting japanese socialists/communists. I guess that's one of the cool things about being a leftist: no matter what country you're from, if you're a leftist, you'll have an amazing time with your international comrades
anyway, im not surprised at all that PUBG is popular in japan
You realise that the game is still very unpopular with the Japanese audiences right? PUBG is only the top PC game in Japan because people there in general don't use PC for other games than visual novels and f2p online games with low requirements.
It's almost like its a video game that is
>easy to pick up
>played in bite sized chunks
>played in social groups
>fun
It's perfect for pcbangs and shit.
>motion sickness
this meme needs to die
it was literally one Japanese guy who said that FPS games make him sick and then he was referred fucking everywhere as "why Japanese don't like fps games"
>easy to pick up
Riiiiight.
I refunded that shit because it was impossible to kill people, every time I got in a gun fight RNG was always in their favor.
because they only play pc for westaboo games and doujin vn's
probably also because the original battle royale movie was really big
>I refunded that shit because i'm shit at the game.
FIFY

Everything I've read proves my point
You're the only one saying otherwise
>people playing pubg in Syria
Couldn't they just go outside for the real experiance?
nips love it and i hope they get more into PC in general. all nips on steam playing EDF 4.1 are great teammates -- but most people just are in the EDF
youtube.com
seethe OP is fucking misleading
For example, take a look at store.steampowered.com
Japan has 1.9PB while Sweden, an incredibly depopulated country in comparison, has 2.4PB
That works out to a sort of Steam GDP of 15MB vs 250MB.
...
Hope those slant eyed fucks make an anime bootleg of pubg
Oh I wasn't talking about that
I though you were talking about the whole
>people there in general don't use PC for other games than visual novels and f2p online games with low requirements.
thing.
...
You just want someone to post the webm again.
they have to
well, that's actually also true
seePC market is pretty niché in Japan. It's literally around 10 times less popular per capita than in the west.
Japan invented the battle royale concept these games stem from
Fucking anime this season has a PUBG reference in its intro...
I thought it was more to do with cultural differrnces, similar to how they see weapons as a symiotic part of the player avatar rathern than a self-contained tool like the west does.
wait, which one?
Gamers!!
pubg is NOT popular in Japan at all
Dragon Quest is popular
Splatoon is popular
Monster Strike is popular
Puzzle and Dragons is popular
Monster Hunter is popular
Pokémon is popular
but not fucking pubg, you guys are taking this shit too far. pubg will never be on the level of popularity of the games listed above in japan
see
FUCK WEEBBROS
WE SAID THAT JAPAN WOULDN'T LIKE THIS WESTERN SHIT
WHY ARE WE WRONG AGAIN?
Goddammit I'm on your side
I thought you were disputing that claim because you replied citation needed to the post that said PC gaming is dead in Japan
What fuckin chinese cartoon is this?
>currently the most played game in japan
>not popular
what did he mean by this
They don't though
there is a reason why they lost WW11
Install Sup Forums X and hover of the "title" thing or open the webm in your favourite media player and look at the title.
PLAYERUNKNOWN'S WEEBSHIT
overwatch has one of the worst UIs that probably can actually give people motion sickness, but koreans are the best at it
sorry dude but they're already referencing it in anime....looks like we lost, fellow weeb lardaass :(
The anime in question
It's a cringeworthy shit show with a super beta lead that doesn't want to join a gaming club because he only plays for fun and is too nervous to actually play with other people.
meant to quote
oh, i see. i should have guessed because i assumed either that one or new game. i should probably watch gamers
>PUGB
>player unknown grattle bound
>because he only plays for fun and is too nervous to actually play with other people.
So it's really about the average Sup Forumsirgin
>currently the most played game in japan
no it's not you retard
it's the most popular PC game, which is a dead platform in Japan
It's actually significantly worse than that. He only really plays mobile games. Has like 3 girls ready for his dick but is too beta when they're literally throwing themselves at him and apparently the whole thing is sponsored by Arc System Works because they're in every fucking episode with Guilty Gear or Persona Ultimax
>most popular pc game
>not popular
huh??
Japan is starting to like shooters.
NORWAY AND ICELAND STRONK
Japs switching over to PC is pretty gud news because it might incite jap studios to do the same
>He only really plays mobile games. Has like 3 girls ready for his dick but is too beta when they're literally throwing themselves at him
they aren't
it's just korean/chinese students
It's "misunderstandings" the anime
The show drops vidya pretty much altogether and it becomes a romcom by episode 3,with the occasional vidya reference sprinkled it
Right now however,beta MC proposed to be the boyfriend to the love interest and she says yes.The title of the episode even has "good end" in the episode like VN route
In the manga,Chiaki is a jealous cunt that breaks up MC and Tendou because she's an insufferable bitch that should've stuck to shitty mobile games
keep bargaining with yourself, fatass
No. The protag actually plays and likes vidya.
Dropped.
It's not even him being beta. It's a shitty trope of harem anime where the MC is clueless as shit which in recent years has been overdone to the point where he doesn't seem to have any interest in getting his dick wet at all.
Is this an edit or do they actually play pubbyG?
I can't believe this got an anime adaptation instead of High Score Girl. I gueess it wasn't sexy-moe enough.
The Japanese and to a lesser extent the entire Asian population of the world have a weaker inner ear on average making high speed shooters disorienting to them. The fact that PUGB of all things would get the entire nation interested is amazing in itself.
"most popular PC game in Japan" is like saying "most popular Xbone exclusive" or "most popular Battleborn mode"
>making high speed shooters disorienting to them
That's exactly why they love PUBG then, it's pretty slow
Probably because drop in drop out, and I'm guessing since it's a nobody dev/company, it's incredibly easy to get away with hacking on it.
Just two guesses.
Koreans are masters at knowing what addicts the Japanese.
you should really read the thread
High Score Girl was being adapted though and even entered production. It was just put on ice because of the law suits which made everything go to shit. So who knows what'll happen with it now.
what's with koreans and idolmaster, though? they even have a shitty live version and the girls are ugly
The anime also has xbox references in it. Doesn't mean it's popular in Japan but that the animes like to refer to every kind of niché stuff.
Koreans are even more addicted to idolshit than Japs. They're not allowed to make porn so they stick to this instead.
PC gaymers in japan are westaboos that like call of duty and battlefield so they eat this shit up
Japan has had socialists and communists since WW2. Impotent anti-americanism does that to you.
nips will never have the PC audience the rest of the world does because nip publishers want to keep gaming on consoles and region lock all their steam games to not work in japan
The last Rainbow Six has always been decently popular over there so your theory is wrong. Not to mention BF and CoD.
You forget Sup Forums is underaged and has not seen this masterpiece, but they rather blame it on shit taste.
>seen
Fuck, sorry
>"seent"
Happy now?
>calling Sup Forums underage when underage yourself
It's a book you fucking philistine.
>post yfw you didn't fall for the pubg meme
who the actual fuck cares? why do you retards keep making these threads
I know it's ALSO a movie, retard.
I fell for the battlegrounds meme. One of the worst games I've ever played.
But you got a refund, right?
Because people respond to them
Afraid not.
