They like games with a focus on modding, plus there's nothing really like CoD for Japan so it fills a niche. It's kind of like Monster Hunter for the West.

Also they like Warframe. I've run into too many Japs while playing and one of the largest clans is Japanese.

Yet most of these incidents are common knowledge and the countries have more or less admitted for past crimes and apologized. Meanwhile if you ask the average person why the Chinese hate Japan, they'll be confused; plus it's only recently Japan has opened up and admitted shit like they were experimenting on American prisoners for kicks. The Japanese did shit on par with the Nazis in their prison camps - using people's skin for decoration, yanking out teeth, beatings, etc. Japan still denies comfort women who were not only from Japan and China, but as far as Belgium. People give a shit because for decades following the war they've vehemently denied their war crimes despite millions of witnesses speaking to the contrary.

If a land invasion of Japan happened, it would be awful beyond understanding. An order of magnitude worse than Vietnam. Japanese were so completely brainwashed, civilians and soldiers genuinely thought American soldiers would eat their infant children. There is footage of Japanese mothers hysterically throwing their children and then themselves from cliffs.

A lot of people don't understand just how merciful the fire-bombings and atom bombs were.

not many, they get motion sickness really easy, something to do with the eyes? its why most asian vidya is turn based, menu based and not really 3d movement and such. also, why they suck at driving. of course, if you mention any genetic differences and they are not positives, your racist.

>>318213247
>movement is motion

uh, i said motion sickness, not movement sickness. if motion sickness ment movement, then people just spinning in circles in front of asians would make them sick, and ww2 would of been a bit easier, or staring at a cars wheels would make you barf. motion refers to your entire view, not individual parts of your view.

its also why starcraft is very feasible. they jack up the movement rate and instead of being in constant MOTION, they MOVE the screen as fast as they can to where they need it, and keep it still. moving it, with as minimal motion.

MOTION.

>>318213697
>Motion
>In physics, motion is a change in position of an object with respect to time.

>Movement
>an act of changing physical location or position or of having this changed

The only difference here is two nouns: Position/location and time. If things are moving, they are in motion. That's how it works. Regardless, games like DMC, Bayonetta, Street Fighter, Virtua Fighter. These games are all very high-motion, with no real concept of "stillness." But the main consumers of these titles are Asian. Mexican in VF's case but that's beside the point. If it were really a case of specifically Asians being more prone to motion sickness, this would not be the case. Hell, we wouldn't have shit like high-detail 3DCG films like China and Japan have been shitting out for the past 4-5 years.

yeah, we went over this. you dont get motion sickness watching wheel of fortune. you get motion sickness reading books in a car. focusing on something thats not moving, while visual or physical input indicates to you, your not.

hence, fighters and stuff and rts being okay because the backround either hardly moves, or moves instantly to the required position.

it moves

with minimal

motion

>Hell, we wouldn't have shit like high-detail 3DCG films like China and Japan have been shitting out for the past 4-5 years.
all these fucking awful comparisons, where you take something thats either moving or not moving, and...not move it in relation to its surroundings. wow. okay, now that youve clarified AGAIN you have no idea what motion sickness is...

again, if motion sickness was MOVEMENT sickness, then simply watching the water in the toilet flush away would cause it.

You literally know fuck-all about the film industry in either China or Japan, then. THere's been a massive surge lately in CG-heavy films with lots of background activity while also focusing on a constantly moving protagonist. For example, check out the recent Sun Wukong movie with Donnie Yen. Everything's moving unrelated to each other - if you were to get motion sickness from a movie, that'd be one.

You're trying way too hard to seem like an intelligent racist.
