The entire thing can be skewed from just advertising by companies. AI sucks balls for legit information. I'm sure there was no actual humans involved in this.

Their "methodology" blurb has so many buzzwords that I'm inclined to agree.

Yeah like I doubt Sam Fisher would even register in the heads of the majority of gamers in the US. Also what does "most loved" even really mean

I had to look up who that was.

I'd bet if they actually surveyed gamers, you'd see more people jokingly submitting "John Halo" than Sam Fisher

If they're just scraping tweets, it's probably looking at mentions of a million and one regular guys in the US named Sam Fisher and not the character.

Sam Fisher lives on in our hearts. Hopefully one day he can live again. Not from Ubisoft though, their last like 4 games have been total irredeemable garbage.
