You know, it's funny because I hadn't really thought of it before what would have been a one-off post, but it's actually a remarkably similar situation. Beyond both of them potentially being nicknamed Nomie. Both were the stars of beloved organizations who ended up being shockingly removed from their teams just before a new regime came in and turned the franchises around. It's like they were both sacrifices to the video game/ baseball gods (praise be to The Great BABIP)

That's not a bad analogy, sir. Nomura is an example of the Ewing Theory of video gaming.

I'm from Australia so they don't air his shows here at all. My knowledge on him, his shows, and segments are limited.
With that being said, that was quite painful to watch. I guess this is not my type of humor.
I dunno... judging from the reception on Youtube, and a couple of gaming forums, it has been quite poorly received, as in people are shitting on the game nonstop now.
I do wonder if this was a good move at all tbh...

They did that to A Realm Reborn, to Type-0, to Bayonetta 2, they throw assorted brimstone and bile to practically any game that's much anticipated. Official impressions and fan reaction outside the standard forum/YouTube communities has been positive overall, so I wouldn't worry. And as to that Conan bloke, his style of humor is not for everyone. Including me.
Oh, that clueless gamer thing is kinda spoilery, in case anyone was kind of sensitive to it. Nothing, like, major, but a plot pont or two and some adamantoise footage.
And it was funny. I can't imagine anyway to take that but as it being funny. if there's anyone out there taking that seriously (who am i kidding, this is the internet age, someone is out there taking it seriously right now, im sure) then they are just being actively insecure and they'll be fine. Zero real preorders were canceled by this, lol

This is why I am so irritated at this Clueless Gamer thing. Look what the shitty gaming media does with it.

Wait, it's not turn-based????
We're talking about the same thing. It's the ridiculous headlines. It's just that that's the state of journalism right now. It's not just about this game, or games in general. It's everything and everywhere. It's infuriating, but it's a much wider-spread problem than this little bubble.
edit: Well, with a famously skittish fanbase, it might be a little bit amplified in this bubble.
Edit2: I read some of the articles, they were super tongue in cheek.

When you get comments like "The thing is, I actually wanted to get this as my first ff game, but now I don't think I will", which is a direct quote btw with other variations of this appearing in the comments sections, then I guess you can say the Conan gig backfired pretty badly.
I want the game to do well in both Japan and in the West, but honest to goodness, sometimes the marketing team for Square make really strange decisions =(
