Well, then my point stands. Shimbori is not an English speaker. Any quote that didn't come from his own mouth can be subjected to translation and interpretation of unknown reliability. With the continuing existence of clickbait culture and past experiences with games like FFXIV I've seen how much English speakers are willing to go to bend stories to the narrative they want to uphold.
So the same interview procedure everyone else does: finding the subject and talking to them. I don't see what makes this particular guy more credible than the others.
That's also what I heard, but people who dropped DOA6 because of "what's going on" are the same people who got introduced to the series through DOA5 and "bought" it on 3dmgame while making chest-pounding forum posts about how they cleverly conquered its inhumane, money grubbing DLC scheme. These people dropping the series effectively translates to zero lost sales.
1. Here's my idea: Just record the guys doing the interview, then if they say anything that was against what you said and published it, you leak the audio to everyone, like what happened when Mike Wallace interviewed a guy and lied about what the guy said a while back. And quite frankly, Billy D IS well-versed with Japanese, and he even managed to post his tweets in the original Japanese text. If you actually looked at the articles, you'd know that.
2. Actually from what I've heard, these guys were also the same guys who stuck around for DOA since before DOA5, and yes, it DOES entail more lost sales. You want zero lost sales? Try absolutely NO lost sales at all, no driving off customers, nothing. I go by exact literal words. And when you drive off customers of ANY sort, you lose money and sales, period.
Either way, let's get off of this to prevent locking this topic. For Xtreme Venus Vacation, basically, from what I can state, Fiona basically asks about dancing again. Will leave it at that until January 25. And let's hope Toda Erica's going to do Leifang soon.
