JP Question & Answer

May 08, 2009 13:49

Erecia posted these questions to his blog and essentially relished the opportunity to express his attitudes toward the JP player-base. I'll agree with him that the questions are exceptionally one-sided but I do not think they are totally baseless. I'm no expert in Japanese culture, but I do recognize that there are some significant differences in ( Read more... )

Ahhh, you're always so fair. I always have hopes that you'll go off the handle. One of these days, one of these days...

Interesting fact about campaign: when it was first released, NPC allies were so weak and mobs so strong that EVERYONE teamed up. That was the situation; work together or die! I still remember an entire alliance of people from different endgame linkshell members fighting on the slopes of Rolanberry Fields to fight the quadav. Good times. Campaign's been changed a dozen times since then, and in my opinion mostly not for the better. SE is so whack with what they "update" sometimes.

Well, it's been known to happen but I'm trying not to relapse into full-out asshole Shadida that stepped down as AXI leader lol.

BtL state of mind is still there but more than half of the JP players were already gone by the time you hopped on our server lol. I missed the days waking up at 4AM with nothing but Japanese spam on the LS chat. :x

Also, you don't like SCH Artifact on Female race?(TT Female excluded).

A bunch turned out for big events though, like ZNMs and PW and stuff. I do realize there were fewer than there used to be though, but it's just further proof that a bi-lingual can and has been successful.

But what about the SCH Artifact!

I had no idea what you were talking about cause you had ninja edited this and I replied from the e-mail notification, lol. As for SCH Artifact, it looks way better on Hume female than on Mithra. :P

I never had an issue with JP players so hard to comment on any of their responses. I understand the differences in play styles and respect theirs. Their loss if they don't respect others. I do remember one party I had with 5 JP players, all tarus and mithras, in Boyahda Tree. It was 3-4 hrs and fun. They made an effort to auto-translate and communicate with me and I appreciated that. Some times I do think they were making fun of my 'amazon' elvaan just by some of the smileys they did with my name inserted in the text...I'll never know tho LOL ( ... )
