I fixed that for you.

What's interesting is that Ubisoft has never cared about quality or a polished day one experience. Day one release on Steam is really just an attempt to get more people to buy the game as a lot of people hate Ubisoft's trash Ubiconnect (or whatever its called) launcher.

I wonder if they're toning down whatever content it was that was firing up the Japanese community. I'm not sure they can afford another underperforming release.
