I refuse to believe that this is really what the people at Capcom think is the reason. Because if this is TRULY what they think, then they are insanely out of touch, and will most assuredly never understand the actual playerbase of the game.
Very bad look for Capcom to say this.
[3/4]

- He cited time-zone differences as a major reason and said it reinforced the importance of holding events in US-friendly time slots to grow global viewership
