You wonder why Sega doesn't want to release to west

[Imjake]

I know the largest reason for why they don't release it to the west is because of money. But, if you actually talk to any of the Japanese players or read PSO2 related conversations (and other MMO forums/discussion places for games that aren't being released here), you will find a couple of other things the native country's gamers notice about us and they confirm those reasons are probably, and thankfully, part of the reason why we get skipped.

Stupid quitters
Stupid people who don't res or what until a boss is dead to res (really, losers, I shouldn't be using close to 5 moons per run because no one else will res)
Stupid weebs who are obsessed with lolis and have made the game population among westerners become 10 to 1 female vs. male characters.

You think companies and foreigners don't notice the pathetic mentality of the western millenial? They do. And they hate us. Nice job, plebs.

No offense but since American's lack any culture besides Thanking the Indians for agreeing to let Americans rob their land since they were getting murdered- the children of the generation will literally grow up thinking their games are their culture. It's an interesting phenomenon really, and why must weebs are overweight pedo's since they latched on to the first meaningful way of living ever since their Momma's bought them a console.

Otaku is an insult in Japan, Weeaboo's love to name themselves after an insult xD

We can't get rid of them, just have to accept that they exist, as long as they're not raping and murdering little children and using loli avatars at age 20+ then they're just weirdo's at best.

I'm so hateful towards Weebs proofreading this daym, met a lot of disgusting ones and I'm sure many people here can relate since they want to enjoy a Japanese game without being associated with them.

[landman]

If you have a good opportunity to deal a good amount of damage to a boss, and you see someone dying, I think you should focus on dealing the maximum amount of damage, and then, if the situation changes, revive the dead player. It also happens most times that 3 or 4 players will throw a moon, so that's also why some people prefer to wait, because 4 people throwing a moon is a lot of time wasted.

And a company couldn't care less for a reason like that if players spend their moneys on the game.

I think everyone's idea of Weeb differs slightly from their experiences of them. To me a Weeb is that fat 24 year old American who talks all cutesy in chat using a big boobed loli character, then you somehow stumble across his irl picture and he is this bug eyed pasty looking creep. They literally obsess and escape to an alternate reality where 2D girls are their waifu's

Everyone has different reasons. I used to play this game when I was in School but quit after I went to college, Summer holidays are over and I'm waiting for the next term so I picked it up to pass time for a bit and have something to always think about and on my mind since there's nothing to study. I've got a month until everyone moves back into the dorms and we start going out again.

Also I'm trying to make a clear distinction from the minority of extremists called Weeaboo's and a person who's interests INCLUDES Anime and JRPG's as well as other things in life.

Don't think anybody here has said Japanese players are perfect. Yes, they can make mistakes, but it doesn't excuse the fact that pugs w/ foreigners are terrible 90% of the time. Although I'm not sure what the status is there on S10, but on 2 it can be pretty bad.

Anyway, Idk why you guys are in so much denial. Japanese players, even some of the worst ones from VITA, are better than the majority of foreign players.

I'm not going to say you're right or wrong (I'm personally in agreement that the general jp player base is overall better; i just dont know [or care] how much better.)

But the biggest issues I personally have with these statements esp when its cross ship is that there is no objective way to measure this shit, or if there is, no one has actually gone through the trouble of actually finding out.

It's always a comparison of anecdotal experiences between players on these boards and as a result all it manages to do is rile people up and turn threads into BAKA GAIJIN threads more often then not, regardless of what the actual truth is.

It almost gives the impression that people actually DO have nothing to do outside of PSO2.

And on top of that, the overall japanese player base heavily out numbers the non-japanese player base, so no matter what ship you're on; you're always going to find a greater percentage of skilled JP players compared to skilled non-JP.

And to keep the ball rolling, there is a lot of "gaijin" self-loathing among non-JP players and the skilled non-JP players will avoid PUGs and lock themselves off publicly most of the time e.g. private MPAs, organized MPAs, teams dedicated to top tier play and high skill players. etc etc, which is going to further skew the ratio of players when it comes to JP v non-JP.

And to add the cherry on top, confirmation bias is fucking STRONG in the PSO2 Western community.

All you niggas who talk shit about "gaijin this" and "gaijin that" are more than likely to be talking shit from a skewed perspective with heavy bias, probably because of personal experiences and anecdotal evidence from their circle of friends.

And this community isnt the community that will make threads praising players, so really all you're going to see is more shit talk threads and it all just keeps feeding into itself.

Ya'll niggas need to chill for real man.

I know the largest reason for why they don't release it to the west is because of money. But, if you actually talk to any of the Japanese players or read PSO2 related conversations (and other MMO forums/discussion places for games that aren't being released here), you will find a couple of other things the native country's gamers notice about us and they confirm those reasons are probably, and thankfully, part of the reason why we get skipped.

Stupid quitters
Stupid people who don't res or what until a boss is dead to res (really, losers, I shouldn't be using close to 5 moons per run because no one else will res)
Stupid weebs who are obsessed with lolis and have made the game population among westerners become 10 to 1 female vs. male characters.

You think companies and foreigners don't notice the pathetic mentality of the western millenial? They do. And they hate us. Nice job, plebs.

[Imjake]

It's cute seeing so many people make up b.s. to go behind the things I said.

The weeb thing, for those of us who aren't morons, has a connotation behind it that isn't just "likes/loves anime". Are you kidding? Although I suspect most people actually know that but needed a counter to what I said.

People saying jP does it too. Bull. Maybe when theyre surrounded by obvious western lolis they do.

Someone said if you have a chance to do massive damage to a boss instead of res'ing, you should. Riiiiiight. Because 90 percent of us aren't super OP and will surely lose or take too long to defeat a boss if we help someone get exp instead of leaving them. Furthermore, although I wasnt extremely specific, it should be obvious to anyone who isn't "special" that no one expects you stop mid-PA and res someone without a thought. Im talking about people who simply don't res or who wait til the boss is dead to res. All Im saying is that it's ridiculous that I, and others, go through 4 or 5 moons because otherwise, people don't res until boss is dead, if at all. Ive seen people left completely, and it's happened to me, as well.

The fact that most MPAs are 8 to 12 "female" - used loosely- chars; most of which are lolis and sad, perverted abominations, vs. the 1 to 4 male chars, is ridiculous.

And for those saying the topic has been done, ok. I can agree. Game is down, went out and bought mad max and MGSV, hadn't played my PS4 in a loooong time so I had several updates, then decided to update all my games. So I made a rant. My bad. :D

Japanese players, even some of the worst ones from VITA, are better than the majority of foreign players.I think the issue with this whole argument is that people immediately go to "Well they're bad because they're westerners and have western mentalties" or something like that. While there could be arguments for that being a factor I feel the biggest reason is just the lack of english resources and people taking it for granted that people are going to either, learn a whole language for a game just because it wasn't localized in the west, or spend hours trying to find resources that may or may not be out of date.

I don't see why you think this has anything to do with western players considering most western games I play the majority of characters are male, and even in the animu games it's more even, unlike PSO2 where female characters vastly outnumber the male, and it's not like the foreign players are even that big a part of the population in the first place.

I know the largest reason for why they don't release it to the west is because of money. But, if you actually talk to any of the Japanese players or read PSO2 related conversations (and other MMO forums/discussion places for games that aren't being released here), you will find a couple of other things the native country's gamers notice about us and they confirm those reasons are probably, and thankfully, part of the reason why we get skipped.

Stupid quitters
Stupid people who don't res or what until a boss is dead to res (really, losers, I shouldn't be using close to 5 moons per run because no one else will res)
Stupid weebs who are obsessed with lolis and have made the game population among westerners become 10 to 1 female vs. male characters.

You think companies and foreigners don't notice the pathetic mentality of the western millenial? They do. And they hate us. Nice job, plebs.

Quitters exist in all forms.

I've had people rest me after a boss is dead that were both English and Japanese players.

Because there isn't that many Japanese players that have pedo characters, right? While yeah, a lot of English players have pedo-approved characters, many Japanese players do too.


jP do the exact same thing...

Exactly.


Theres that word again "weeb", what does this word even mean anymore? as soon as someone hears "Japan" "Japanese" "Anime" its like your brain is instantly programmed to call everyone a weeb. Word literally lost all its meaning with todays retards

"Weeb" or weeaboo is pretty much the western form of an Otaku. It varies though.
I've seen "Weebs" that are just those that are really REALLY into a lot of stuff Japanese.
I've seen others that said to me (both to my face and online) things like, "What's it like to be Japanese? Is it offensive to say I wish I could be Japanese for a day?" paraphasing a bit, but they did say they wish they could've been Japanese for a bit to experience how a Japanese person is.
I didn't find it offensive though. Just.... creepy.


OH MAN I SURE HATE THOSE STUPID BAKA GAIJINS IN PSO2

THANK GOD ANOTHER THREAD LIKE THIS WAS MADE

I GET TO RAGE ABOUT THOSE BAKA GAIJINS IN B001 WHO DO NOTHING BUT SPAM LEWD SYMBOL ART (THAT THEY STOLE BECAUSE ONLY THE MASTER NIPPON RACE CAN MAKE SUCH INTRICATE AND AMAZING SYMBOL ART BECAUSE THEY ARE THE GODS OF ANIME AND MANGA) AND PLAY MY (BY ME I MEAN THE MASTER RACE AND I'S) GAME WITH THEIR SHIT GEAR.

THEY'RE SO BAD AT THE GAME TOO. THEY MAKE IT HARD FOR THE NIPPON MASTER RACE TO CARRY ME (BECAUSE IM NOT JAPANESE IM AUTOMATICALLY BAD AT THE GAME SO I HAVE TO BE CARRIED BY MY SAVIORS.)

BAKA GAIJINS CHARACTERS ARE SO DISGUSTING TOO. THEY CANT EVEN DO LOLI CHARACTERS RIGHT.

WHY HASNT SEGA BANNED THEM YET???? EEXCEPT ME BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH IM A BAKA GAIJIN IM ACCEPTING OF THE NIPPON MASTER RACE AND THEIR WAYS THATS WHY I HAVE 3 REAL LIFE JAPANESE FRIENDS FROM PSO2 THAT I TALK TO ON LINE [SO MUCH BETTER THAN FACEBOOK] AND TWITTER.

JESUS I WISH THE DDOS NEVER STOPPED SO THESE BAKA GAIJIN WOULDNT BE POLLUTING THIS AMAZING JAPANESE MMORPGS THAT IS VERY FLAWLESS BECAUSE IT'S MADE BY THE MASTER RACE.

THE NIPPONS HATE BAKA GAIJINS TOO I KNOW TRUST ME I CAN SPEAK THEIR LANGUAGE (NOT PERFECTLY BUT I AM DEDICATING MY FREE TIME WHEN IM NOT PLAYING PSO2 TO MASTERING THEIR LANGUAGE.)

FUCKING BAKA GAIJINS.

Gaijin Buu is powering up, I see. I applaud you.


Sometimes I wonder if people take Filthy Franks videos a little too seriously and thats where this all derives from.

But GH sure hit the point there

People actually like him?


People still complain about resurrecting after boss death?

http://www.memecreator.org/static/images/templates/9.jpg

I used to. Now I make it my duty to try to not die personally when a Boss is near death. That and I always look on my map when a boss is near death to try and resurrect anyone I can.
I don't like being res after a boss and I know those that died just before wouldn't like to either, so I try to help them out.

That being said, I've seen some people seem to have that option clicked on that their icon isn't shown when they're dead. I don't get why they pick that option as sometimes people miss them because of that.
Next thing I noticed in a way is that people usually tend to revive you if you're helpful/contributing/needed. In TD3, chances are you're needed. Challenge Mode you're needed... whether it is to attack or not to cause VR to drop to fail. Fighting against Elder, chances are you're not needed so most are not likely to revive you unless you're maybe a Force or a Ranger or something.


I see you're all enjoying your time away from PSO2 due to extended maintenance.

I was until I wanted to check on why the maintenance was so long. I didn't see much news on the official site so I thought I would check on here... and found this topic instead.


It's because the casuals outweigh the hardcore players!

Matters on the blocks at times. And the hours too.


The fuck did I just read?

Boredom at it's purest form.


It's cute seeing so many people make up b.s. to go behind the things I said.

The weeb thing, for those of us who aren't morons, has a connotation behind it that isn't just "likes/loves anime". Are you kidding? Although I suspect most people actually know that but needed a counter to what I said.

People saying jP does it too. Bull. Maybe when theyre surrounded by obvious western lolis they do.

Someone said if you have a chance to do massive damage to a boss instead of res'ing, you should. Riiiiiight. Because 90 percent of us aren't super OP and will surely lose or take too long to defeat a boss if we help someone get exp instead of leaving them. Furthermore, although I wasnt extremely specific, it should be obvious to anyone who isn't "special" that no one expects you stop mid-PA and res someone without a thought. Im talking about people who simply don't res or who wait til the boss is dead to res. All Im saying is that it's ridiculous that I, and others, go through 4 or 5 moons because otherwise, people don't res until boss is dead, if at all. Ive seen people left completely, and it's happened to me, as well.

The fact that most MPAs are 8 to 12 "female" - used loosely- chars; most of which are lolis and sad, perverted abominations, vs. the 1 to 4 male chars, is ridiculous.

And for those saying the topic has been done, ok. I can agree. Game is down, went out and bought mad max and MGSV, hadn't played my PS4 in a loooong time so I had several updates, then decided to update all my games. So I made a rant. My bad. :D

- Um, I don't think because Japanese players are surrounded by pedo-looking English players that they're influenced and make them too.

- Already explained how some people see players of either being worthy or not of resing. There's always pricks and elitists out there.
There's another factor at times is that people sometimes don't look at anything but the boss and will not notice you're dead until after the boss is dead OR at least until the boss move or change around. Like if Loser is far away and about to stop people with his swords... they got a chance then to notice you're dead, but if his Flava Flav clock just broke, they are more focus on doing as much damage before looking around and see who's dead.

- I've see a lot of "lolis" with those um... butterfaces that I think are called baby faces? That or in the most perverted get up possible. I sometimes feel weird when many times I'm the only female in the mpa that doesn't look whorish/slutty.
That being said though, I sometimes in random runs don't see much unique or original male characters. When I do, they're awesome though, mind you.

[LonelyGaruga]

You try reading about the strategies on how to beat bosses like Magatsu and Luther after they've been garbled through gooble translate.

That's what I normally do...

As for classes and skill trees, that's just logic and browsing nico and (to a lesser extent) YT. I'll admit swiki is terrible for this stuff because it very deliberately attempts to please everyone, so it tries to advertise any class combination for its merits regardless of viability.

Point is though, the resources are readily available.

[[Ayumi]]

I wish it was that simple. 3: But then you get people putting WB on the wrong parts of bosses because they think strategies they heard in 2012 are still relevant.

You need to take to account that some of the players playing MIGHT be coming back from a long break and think some of those things are still relevant.

I was one of them.

[Nitro Vordex]

You could always browse and see if anything's changed. Kinda makes sense for an MMO-type game.

[ArcaneTechs]

Long post Ayumi but still to an "extent" that I can even take weeb serious just because people are really into anime and Japanese culture but maybe I could take it into account for the ones that pretend and act stupid on purpose to make front of people who are interested into this stuff.

As for the Filthy Frank part, I have friends and have meet and seen people act out stuff from his videos or take anything he's joking about seriously or that it's fact. Hell my friends think when says Penis in Japanese over and over that thats what the subtitles are actually translated into. I know a small bit of Japanese but I tend to laugh when I know thats not really what he's saying in the subtitles and etc so I try to translate at times that you know "he's this" "nah he isn't".

But ya it's sorta hard to go anywhere without seeing some sort of reference from Filthy Frank or at least know someone is from their fan base

And I can't comprehend why that would HAVE to be something they're used to in the first place.

I was one of them.You missed that reddit post I linked like last week that had a guy vehemently insisting that people who don't try to break all of elder's arms are denying the rest of the MPA useful drops, and claiming that it affected the RDR of actual relevant rares without even a source. >_> I'm not talking about people just getting stuff wrong, I'm talking about those people who will WB fight against the other 4 rangers in the party then get mad that the party is "scrubs" and "doesn't know how to play" without even thinking "oh maybe the strategy changed".

Ive seen people left completely, and it's happened to me, as well.

Probably because they have a "don't care, someone else will do it" mentality. I've also ignored dead players multiple times either because, they're too far (TD), too much of a hassle to run back and Moon them (TD, sometimes Magatsu), or it's their nth death already (if N < 4, then res. Else, ignore).

It helps if you have a hilarious auto-word set when you die.

I did moon someone at the upper left corner of TD: Despair when I was at the bottom right. Only to have him die again. You can imagine how I felt.

Sooooo glad it's not just me.

[Kondibon]

I'd like to add that sometimes I hold off on ressing people because I get tired of seeing a bunch of people waste moons trying to res one person at the same time. I: Nothing is worse than running out of moons near the end of a fight when people would really actually want to be alive.

[LonelyGaruga]

And I can't comprehend why that would HAVE to be something they're used to in the first place.

Because it's a Japanese game, and as such, the best resources for information about it would logically be in Japanese. I really don't see what the big deal is. Either you're willing to do what's necessary to improve or you aren't and don't care about improving. It really is that simple. I never did anything like this before playing PSO2, and the biggest reason I started on it is because of how lacking the EN resources are and how full of inaccuracies the EN community generally is. The failings of EN resources were hindering my ability to learn so I started using JP resources.

Honestly, if the EN community as a whole cared about learning, we'd already have an EN equivalent to swiki. Which we don't. Lack of readily available information cannot even be a problem if there isn't a demand for the information to begin with. You're giving the EN community too much credit here. You don't have to look further than the majority of people who complain about other people. They are most likely just as bad as the people they're complaining about if not worse.

I did it for PSU, PSP2, and PSP2i.
Only because the info was sorted out much better on Japanese sites than they were on english sites.
Hell, if it wasn't for PSO-W, a lot of PSO info or PS in general are horrible out there.

[KLMS1]

I'd like to add that sometimes I hold off on ressing people because I get tired of seeing a bunch of people waste moons trying to res one person at the same time.

I'm pretty conscentious about ressing others so barring people dying with ludicrous frequency, those unwanted multi-moonings are the primary reason I run out during EQs. Not an awful lot to be done about someone licking Loser's floor when that happens.

[Kondibon]

Either you're willing to do what's necessary to improve or you aren't and don't care about improving. It really is that simple.
Except it's NOT that simple, different people draw different lines for how much is too much. My point is that if the resources were more accessible in english there wouldn't be as many bad english players. They aren't bad because they're western players, they're bad because of the language barrier, regardless of what resources there are to get around it.

Plenty of players here have things about the game they don't like doing and still manage to do fine. The problem isn't that people don't want to learn, it's that people don't want to teach. If we're gonna talk about people half assing stuff maybe we should talk about how Taiga doesn't actually bother spreading his guides outside of PSO-W, or how the only response to "how do you exit burst?" is almost always "it's easy, figure it out yourself". Maybe we should talk about how all the people complaining about how uniformed everyone is won't take the time to inform them properly and just assume that everyone has the time and resources to learn and practice a bunch of mechanics in a game that isn't in their first language.

If the JP players are doing anything better than the western players it's bothering to share information instead of acting like anyone who can't be bothered to figure this stuff out on their own is garbage.

LMAAAOO

[Gama]

imo sega wont release pso2 to the west because where all there already. so why waste monnnnnnney.

[The Walrus]

why release a crappy game that would fail gosh

[Kokurokoki]

To be honest, it's Sega's fault for allowing players to create loli characters.

However it all depends on the approach you make to character creation.

Like, creating child characters are totally fine. I usually try to associate backstories to each and every one of my characters when I create them. Other people just want to make a loli to dress up in clothing. It's creepy.

Being an Otaku isn't necessarily bad, it's just that a lot of low-lifes become Otaku because it allows them to live out their sick fantasies. There are plenty of respectable people who fall under the Otaku category.

Anyways, it is because of the large amount of sexual content that SEGA is not going to release it to the west. The internet is already chock full of social justice warriors, I'm sure SEGA doesn't need a lawsuit up its ass because people can't understand the differences in cultural norms between nations, even if that one is fairly high on the creep meter in order to make money.

I see no problem making small characters to a degree.
I myself got 3 child-like characters that I made as partner machines... but the thing is that they're not dress in anything revealing at all (one of them is male) and their character is meant to be the ages of 11, 12, and 13. So pretty much mine are meant to be children.

[Kokurokoki]

And this is why I'm enjoying PSO2 the way it is now. The fact that its complicated to sign up and install will prevent most of the annoying players from signing up, leaving most of the western community consisting of people who play Phantasy Star for... Phantasy Star.

I'd rather not deal with people harping on your ass because you chose to craft a 6-star weapon to max level and are therefore a scrub because you've lost out on like 15% of damage in a PvE game.

My character Maenara is only 4' 6.75" tall. Canonically, however, she's 19~20 years old, she just has proportional dwarfism, a rare, but real thing.

Point being, just because a character is short, that doesn't make them a loli. You can see Mae in my signature image. Despite being short, clearly not a loli. Embiggened signature image: [spoiler-box]http://i.imgur.com/tWLBxBh.jpg[/spoiler-box]

[Kondibon]

Tell that to Norasuko... also don't google Norasuko.

[Thienien]

No offense but since American's lack any culture besides Thanking the Indians for agreeing to let Americans rob their land since they were getting murdered- the children of the generation will literally grow up thinking their games are their culture. It's an interesting phenomenon really, and why must weebs are overweight pedo's since they latched on to the first meaningful way of living ever since their Momma's bought them a console.

Otaku is an insult in Japan, Weeaboo's love to name themselves after an insult xD

We can't get rid of them, just have to accept that they exist, as long as they're not raping and murdering little children and using loli avatars at age 20+ then they're just weirdo's at best.

I'm so hateful towards Weebs proofreading this daym, met a lot of disgusting ones and I'm sure many people here can relate since they want to enjoy a Japanese game without being associated with them.


No offense but since American's lack any culture besides Thanking the Indians for agreeing to let Americans rob their land

.......SIGH*...Just Sigh*... Firstly, there was no such thing as "americans" back then. There were only pilgrims and the natives also known as the children of ISRAEL who came from the eastern lands of babylon (ancient) escaping captivity (they were actually set free by this king) by way of the red sea from captivity in the persian medes empire. They made it to this land called Arsareth which we know as america today named after amerigo vespucci. It was known as Arsareth or "the untouched lands" until that faggot stole it.

The first so called tribes were Reuben, Ashurr, Zebulon, Manasseh, Issachar, Naphthali, Gad and Ephraim

lastly, they didn't AGREE and the people that robbed them were European rapists and genocidal freaks and pedophiles(Christopher columbus, Washington, Ponce de leon, Cortez) whom their descendants inherit today with their strong lust for underage girls in fantasies (lolicon and junior idols). Just google the Taino indian massacre (indian means savage or slave from the latin word indos)

Lastly, if i get flamed for giving a history lesson my reply will lie right here

lol no.

We have a fully translated client. We have a wiki in English. We have several guides and skill trees on PSOW. The information resources are there.

But people are still very bad...

Why?

It's because a lot of players in our community do not give a damn about improving themselves. it's as simple as that.

"Fun_Fact: Almost none of the "elite" English players know Japanese, so how come they became good? Because they had the desire to do research and get better... which seems extremely rare in this community."

Even if I told all of you how to do all these tricks and play the game "good", its still left up to you whether you want to do it or not.

Just google the Taino indian massacre (indian means savage or slave from the latin word indos)

The problem isn't that people don't want to learn, it's that people don't want to teach.

Oh, really now? Look, the people that are in a position to teach sometimes snark at others. I'm not gonna deny that, and I'm not gonna deny I do the same thing a lot. But do you know why? Because people aren't willing to listen, and that's frustrating when you want to teach people. Dunno if you noticed, but anytime I'm not being a condescending jackass or having a neutral conversation, I'm teaching, giving advice, answering questions, anywhere and any way I can. Did the same thing on the previous forum I hung out on. And there's a number of other people that do the same thing with varying degrees on the condescension/helpfulness scale (usually leaning on the latter).

I'm only speaking for myself when I say this, but the sense of gratification is almost nil when there are people that ask the same question four times after being properly answered three times, when the same people that are at the top helping people are bashed as elitists and tryhards, when efficient play is actively demonized, when people complain about the failings of others while ignoring their own shortcomings because they're convinced they're excellent players, when people who absolutely don't know what they're talking about talk shit to the people that do...I could keep going on for another two paragraphs about this. There are many nice players, and there are many skilled players, and there are a good number of players who are both. But the majority is toxic. I enjoy helping people where I can, but the majority of people here I would prefer to have no other contact with, if that at all.

You can tell me people are willing to learn but don't have the resources, but I don't have any experience that corresponds with this. It's almost a contradiction by nature, actually. I am quite serious when I say that anyone who was willing to go to the lengths necessary to improve themselves would be willing to read a Google Translated website. Saying they shouldn't have to is like saying a person who wants a six-pack shouldn't need to go to the gym since they can just do sit-ups. Whether you should or should not have to do something is completely irrelevant to the reality that is now.

Could these be more accessible? Sure, they could be. But they exist and anyone who wants them is perfectly capable of seeking them out. That's what a competent person does. They recognize what they need and seek it. Could the people that make a point to help others be more helpful? Sure, of course. Any aspect involved can be improved. The question of "what's the problem?" is not solved simply by saying that any one thing is at fault because the one thing at fault is affected by multiple other variables.

People aren't willing to teach? That's because people aren't willing to listen. Neither side is faultless, but far as I can tell the source of the problem lies in the people that instill that sense of unwillingness into people who would otherwise be actively helping players out.

Several guides that exist are outdated, or not updated at a fast enough pace to cover new equipment or class tweaks, and several guides are scattered among several threads here, making it a bit of a search and always being unsure if its working or not. (also some of the guides are just bad) As an example, for finding out a lot of new weapon abilities, its mostly been random word of mouth or having to go to the jp wiki, and hoping google translate doesn't make it too nonsensical.

On top of that, people may have joined from places other then here, and don't have the links to the guides here/contacts to direct them to it. playing ingame isnt much help with 12 player random Mpa's and their lack of coordination.

Best use of help I've seen so far is when i invite people I know are joining the game to teams and everyone in team chat is more then happy to help teach and they're always asking questions and getting help.

yes there are stupid people, yes there are lazy and stupid people, But saying every bad player is just "people who arent willing to learn" is a lazy and stupid excuse.

[Kayarine]

@why the average foreign player sucks

I think this problem has several layers. The base is that the game is originally in Japanese, the english database is a little slow to update, guides are a bit difficult to find - although there's plenty of useful info lying around on PSOW, much of it is scattered and it can be hard to tell what's still relevant. Time investment is required, which not everyone may be willing to put in due to wanting to relax after a tiring day, etc.

The next part is that, when the good players DO share information, there's the issue of people not wanting to listen and accusing them of being tryhards or elitists, etc. People get tired of things like that, you know? So it ends up in jaded responses over time, which just worsens the cycle.
From what I've seen from lurking, many times, there just seems to be a lot of dissonance in personal goals in discussions. Person A questions why person B says build X is bad, using arguments that come across as 'I use it, therefore it's not bad like you're saying!' Person B is just talking from an optimal build standpoint, comparing it to alternatives, but person A gets offended because they don't share the same viewpoint as B, seemingly takes it as an offense towards their personal playstyle and so on. If person A was more understanding, I believe there wouldn't be an issue.

'But this is an easy PvE game, why bother lol'
Well, it's relatively easy to clear any quest in the game, sure, but there's an undeniable difference between a C rank and S rank in TD3 in terms of rewards, for example. Person A may be content with just going out there and defending towers using their favorite playstyle, but person B might be more interested in getting the best chances at rares and cubes from 30-45 minutes of EQ; or even just not timing out any waves to get max EXP. B might also not have enough friends online to make an organized MPA with. So why not come up with a compromise between what's personally fun and helpful to everyone else in the group? That way everyone has fun, regardless of what each one finds fun.
Nobody needs to minmax or 'try hard' in order to contribute, just have some standards.

Another thing, which is more of a personal observation, is that maybe not many enjoy spoonfeeding - which is perhaps where the 'go try it out yourself' comments come from. Basic directions and proof of concept may be provided, but not a detailed lengthy explanation because it'd probably be easier to understand by seeing it in action. Also ties in with the possibility of people not caring/wanting to listen even if properly explained.


tl;dr: I think both sides could use some improvements to avoid attrition. Casual players could benefit from being more open minded and understand that it's not the end of the world when someone tells them the way they play isn't the best, or that it would be good if they put a bit of effort to improve average quality of PUGs so that everyone can get nice rewards. Constructive criticism isn't an attack on one's playstyle or personal attack.

On the other hand, I think being more patient when sharing information would help with people listening to it. Even if one gives good info, if people misinterpret the tone they may not listen at all.

That's, of course, just my take on it. Feel free to ignore my wall of text. :-?

[TwistedShaerk]

People aren't willing to teach? That's because people aren't willing to listen.

Reminds me of someone who used to be in my team that I gave suggestions to for Jet Boots, and they ignored my suggestions for species latent boots by endgame because they all looked ugly. They were also incessant on using Fo/Bo, Bo/Fo, I forget which combo but I know it was those two classes.

This was at a point where 13*s were available, but at the time 13*s were something even I didn't consider that much just due to RNG of Anga.

[Yukipon]

On the other hand, I think being more patient when sharing information would help with people listening to it. Even if one gives good info, if people misinterpret the tone they may not listen at all.

This. In pretty much every teaching opportunity, ever.

Being courteous and understanding would help too.

Must be why people who work hard to get to certain positions in the Job Field or be picked for Major League sports was because they're "all equal" I mean hell, they might as well give trophies to everyone win or lose, it doesn't matter, we're all equal.

Race wise ya we're all the same but when it comes down to competitiveness (which this game barely has) in anything, theres always going to be people who are on top and some are willing to teach but again it all matters if that person is willing to learn to improve themselves or just make excuses and start calling everyone a bunch of elitist just because they suck

a lot of build defense I'm guessing is sunk cost fallacy or just a natural resistance to change. Its a long grind back to the cap, and expensive if you need to buy a new mag or such, so someone telling you that all you work you did was for something thats not evne the best option, can be a bit hard to swallow.
I mean I started as a techer/fighter, moved to techer/braver and im not exactly looking forward to leveling hunter now as well. That's a lot of leveling, mag raising, and equipment to start over on. so rather then start over and all the unfun work that entails, some people might rather just justify it as "their style" and keep going with what they got, because the alternative is unfun grinding.

It's not a justification, but something to consider when people seem to resist ideas for thier character.

[Maenara]

Yet it's not really as bad as people think it is. One of my characters started as a Fi/Bo but I eventually got tired of the class and took the time to level Hu so I could play Fi/Hu instead. I don't regret taking that time out to grind another class, because it allowed me to learn a playstyle that I found more fun by the time I was done.

Now leveling Gu solely for the class bonus on the other hand...

[LonelyGaruga]

Expecting "competent" people to "recognize" what they need is giving people (humanity, in general) a little too much credit.

I mean it in the same sense that a sick person might recognize that they need to take medicine, or a hungry person might realize they need to eat food. Nothing groundbreaking or anything.

Now leveling Gu solely for the class bonus on the other hand...

The problem is that it depends on the class, imo. Back when FoFi, and later on FoBr, was relevant, it was such a pain to level Fi and Br because they're melee classes... on a character with t-atk mag and gear. And without Hu to go along with them, leveling them as melee classes would be more work than it's worth. So all I did was use a multiclass rod, but I wouldn't call playing a gimped Fo fun.

Nowadays I just play almost every class, but at the beginning it's understandable to not want to go through all that effort.

[LunaSolstice]

Now leveling Gu solely for the class bonus on the other hand...

I feel like I'm probably the only person who actually enjoyed leveling Gu the entire way up to 75 lol I dropped the class at 50 to level up others then picked it up again when the class bonuses were announced and ended up liking TMGs alot

It felt a bit similar to Bo jet boots playstyle wise with me being in the air majority of the time so that's probably why.

You probably don't know (or care) who I am. I often complain about EN people being rude shits.
I've led groups playing JP games, and I always tell group members to keep a low profile and be polite.

Anyway, you're preaching to the choir. Most of the people here don't seem to act like rude shits in-game.
That's why I don't direct my complaints towards people on this forum. I just generally express frustration.


Stupid quitters
Stupid people who don't res or what until a boss is dead to res (really, losers, I shouldn't be using close to 5 moons per run because no one else will res)
Stupid weebs who are obsessed with lolis and have made the game population among westerners become 10 to 1 female vs. male characters.

These are all things I see JP people doing as well, though.
Nowadays, JP people quit as soon as they see EN names (which is understandable).
The game in general is designed in such a way as to encourage people to quit (ie. EQ time, boost tickets, Weak Bullet, etc).
I've seen plenty of JP people fail to throw Moons. I know this, because I blacklist people when they intentionally ignore my corpse and leave the area.
Been blacklisting those people for years, and there are a lot of them (both JP and EN).
However, I'm sure part of the reason is because there's no subpalette space, and they're too lazy to access items via the crappy GUI.

And I'm certain most games have a much larger female to much lesser male ratio, especially in Asian countries.
Why? Because females look nicer, they have nicer clothes with much more options, and are treated nicer. Just like in reality.
Asians tend to be more understanding of these facts, whereas Westerners tend to have this big thing about "play as your gender, or else you're automatically homosexual".

That's one of the reasons why Western games tend to have much higher male ratios.
Back in PSO1, I've heard that most JP players were lolis, while most EN players were Sephiroth clones.
I sometimes see JP players openly making fun of JP lolis, too.
Never thought it was considered a "foreigner-only thing".

Now, realistically, most companies don't give a shit if their game has a toxic community.
Some companies (Nexon) like to piss their community off and treat them like shit.
I don't think that people being stupid in PSO2 is much of a factor for SEGA not localizing it in the West.
If there's a lot of money to be made, they're not going to care about toxic community.

THEY'RE SO BAD AT THE GAME TOO. THEY MAKE IT HARD FOR THE NIPPON MASTER RACE TO CARRY ME (BECAUSE IM NOT JAPANESE IM AUTOMATICALLY BAD AT THE GAME SO I HAVE TO BE CARRIED BY MY SAVIORS.)

BAKA GAIJINS CHARACTERS ARE SO DISGUSTING TOO. THEY CANT EVEN DO LOLI CHARACTERS RIGHT.

WHY HASNT SEGA BANNED THEM YET???? EEXCEPT ME BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH IM A BAKA GAIJIN IM ACCEPTING OF THE NIPPON MASTER RACE AND THEIR WAYS THATS WHY I HAVE 3 REAL LIFE JAPANESE FRIENDS FROM PSO2 THAT I TALK TO ON LINE [SO MUCH BETTER THAN FACEBOOK] AND TWITTER.

JESUS I WISH THE DDOS NEVER STOPPED SO THESE BAKA GAIJIN WOULDNT BE POLLUTING THIS AMAZING JAPANESE MMORPGS THAT IS VERY FLAWLESS BECAUSE IT'S MADE BY THE MASTER RACE.

FUCKING BAKA GAIJINS.[/SPOILER-BOX]


[SPOILER-BOX]I'm not going to say you're right or wrong (I'm personally in agreement that the general jp player base is overall better; i just dont know [or care] how much better.)

But the biggest issues I personally have with these statements esp when its cross ship is that there is no objective way to measure this shit, or if there is, no one has actually gone through the trouble of actually finding out.

It's always a comparison of anecdotal experiences between players on these boards and as a result all it manages to do is rile people up and turn threads into BAKA GAIJIN threads more often then not, regardless of what the actual truth is.

It almost gives the impression that people actually DO have nothing to do outside of PSO2.

And on top of that, the overall japanese player base heavily out numbers the non-japanese player base, so no matter what ship you're on; you're always going to find a greater percentage of skilled JP players compared to skilled non-JP.

And to keep the ball rolling, there is a lot of "gaijin" self-loathing among non-JP players and the skilled non-JP players will avoid PUGs and lock themselves off publicly most of the time e.g. private MPAs, organized MPAs, teams dedicated to top tier play and high skill players. etc etc, which is going to further skew the ratio of players when it comes to JP v non-JP.

And to add the cherry on top, confirmation bias is fucking STRONG in the PSO2 Western community.

All you niggas who talk shit about "gaijin this" and "gaijin that" are more than likely to be talking shit from a skewed perspective with heavy bias, probably because of personal experiences and anecdotal evidence from their circle of friends.

And this community isnt the community that will make threads praising players, so really all you're going to see is more shit talk threads and it all just keeps feeding into itself.

They're about minimum height whether they were trying to achieve loli with huge tits, hips and whatever else is beyond me but they're offsetting so screenshot.

Point being, just because a character is short, that doesn't make them a loli. You can see Mae in my signature image. Despite being short, clearly not a loli. Embiggened signature image: [spoiler-box]http://i.imgur.com/tWLBxBh.jpg[/spoiler-box]

How.... how does one fight with that chest?


PSOWorld associates Lol characters with B001.

That is the curse you have you accept you Baka Gaijin.

All of my females are tall and don't wear heels. As a result I get random compliments and friend requests.

Here I though niggas don't like black girls but I was wrong kek.

Actually wish there were more dark characters in the game.
Hisuiren will be #1 best though. Always.


I've seen plenty of JP people fail to throw moons. I'm sure that's partly because there's no subpalette space.

I can relate to this... on my bouncer subpalette I have no room for moons at all. So I usually have to rush to my inventory to moon when I can.


Nowadays, JP people quit as soon as they see EN names.

I've seen people join runs, see the names, and then quickly run to campship and then the mpa before the teleporter go from whatever number it was minus 1 to 4 (matters on if their party was full)


And I'm certain most games have a much larger female to much lesser male ratio, especially in Asian countries.
Why? Because females look nicer, they have nicer clothes with much more options, and are treated nicer. Just like in reality.
Asians tend to be more understanding of these facts, whereas Westerners tend to have this big thing about "play as your gender, or else you're automatically homosexual".

"Nicer clothes with much more options."
Yet, most of the time the outfits I want are male only... Hell the update coming up for clothes, I want the male outfit which I'm sure females won't bloody get.


That's one of the reasons why Western games tend to have much higher male ratios.
Back in PSO1, I've heard that most JP players were lolis, while most EN players were Sephiroth clones.
I sometimes see JP players openly making fun of JP lolis, too.
Never thought it was considered a "foreigner-only thing".

I thought the reason why most people on PSO1 were males were because they wanted to be Sephiroth or Trunks or Gokou. It's always those names with those hair and then the clothes matching their colours.
Or hackers like Optimus Prime making a RAcast looking like.... well Optimus Prime.

I've only had this happen to me recently. Japanese player called me cute loli-chan LOL.
Could have just been a foreigner with a JP name but I take more pride in calling them a JP player. We did some UQ and then they sent me a friend request lol.

Also, correct me if i'm wrong but aren't you the groovy gal with the Afro :wacko:

[TaigaUC]

There are MMOLoda images where JP people make fun of lolis.
I've seen random JP people complaining about it openly in lobbies before, too.
They make fun of the huge heads, tiny bodies, big tits.

I dunno about everyone else, but I feel uncomfortable being taller than other people.
So, I have a habit of picking low heights in games.

I tried to make the anime-style deformed faces work several times, and they always come out shit for me.
They really don't work well in PSO2's visual style.

And yeah, I just play with my friend and the rest are all JP players.
I do help EN players via my friend partners. Sometimes, I run into them during EQs. Some are strong, some are weak.

@Ayumi
I have one male character, and I sometimes get stuck trying to find a decent outfit.
There are just too many long coats. Or the few nice outfits have colors that can't be changed.
To be fair, I get stuck trying to decide on female outfits too, for similar reasons.

That might be the thing. I want the coats. I want the pants. I want the jackets. I want the decent size shorts.

Females 99% of the time get barely decent coats or jackets. And if they do it's showing off so much that there's no point to it.
Females almost never get pants. I said pants. Not hot pants or tight pants or skanky pants. Normal decent pants.
Shorts is the same thing. I like every single one of the male's beach outfits. I hate all of the female versions.

I requested more casual clothing on the enquete (survey).

@Ayumi
I'd link you the images making fun of lolis, but I don't remember if I even saved them.
And yes, more dark-skinned characters would be nice.
It's awkward often being the only dark-skin character in multis. Or the only male character.

@Maenara

Less work. People get upset over clipping issues when mixing outfits.
Some games bother to try and reduce clipping. PSO2 has clipping even without mixable outfits.

PSU, PSP1, PSP2, PSP2i all had the option of choosing your top/bottoms/shoes.

I think Sega got rid of that because certain people
*raises hand*
were upset that some parts worked with certain ones while wanted the freedom to combine anything with any piece I wanted.
Was also mad that I could not have long hair with a hat on. I always thought, "I could in PSO... why the hell not here?!" Which was one thing that I was really happy for in PSO2.

PSP2 and PSP2i I just wore the Pizza Hut outfit/hat in black as it was the only actual outfit that kinda looked like something I would wear without the game screaming "CAN'T COMBINE! MIGHT CLASH AND SUCH! CLIPPING BAD!"

I think this is more a problem that Sega doesn't care enough to address the fact that everything clips with everything. Oh, you got a cool 13*? Probably clips with your outfit.

I don't know about you guys, but if I see loli with twin tail hair etc in my PUG, my scouter tell me their power level is above 9000.

Because those tickets are really expensive, and to have it would mean at least a competent player.

This is one of the only game I play where character customization (with no stat) tie so closely to player power level.

[TaigaUC]

@SolRiver
I dunno about that. I have to balance my in-game money between aesthetics and upgrading gear.
I rarely buy AC, so nearly all of my money is earned from doing orders or selling stuff.

There are also a lot of people who just play dress up, and are terrible at the actual game.
And I'm sure there are people who spend tons on upgrading, but still can't play very well.

I'm a little proud of the fact that, in many games my gear may not be the best, but I play well enough to make up for the difference.

Yes, I expect your type of player will be above average for sure.

Some players with certain customization is so out there that they pop my scouter when I see them. Since this thread mentioned loli, I thought I would share about that type of players. Certainly they aren't the only good player.

Since you wrote guides, you must be good, you pop my scouter too. I just won't be able to identify you in game right away.

And then we started talking about how everything clips with everything, which it does.

The people who rage about lolis don't have a proper definition themselves.
Sometimes they use the word loli describe the type of character you talked about and sometimes they use the word loli or lolicon for people who are into children or rather young characters.

[[Ayumi]]

I don't see why they'd do anything to the bunnygirl suit. The skimpikini or wet bathtowl I could see though.

Wet bathtowel was in PSP2 I think.
A lot of skimpy outfits too.

[Vatallus]

I'm just going to steal a definition from Urban Dictionary because to me a loli is just a young girl in anime or video games of certain styles. I'm also going to black box some of the other stuff due to context even though I doubt anyone cares. Everything in the black box deals with sexual content. Just saying.


Derived from the Japanese lolicom/lolicon which, itself, is derived from lolita complex - from Nabokov's novel "Lolita".

1) (Noun - plural: loli or lolis) A prepubescent girl; especially in Japanese anime/manga.

2) (Noun - plural: loli or lolis) Hentai porn depicting prepubescent girls. Sometimes extended (erroneously) to adolescent subjects.

3) (Adjective - not comparable) Of or pertaining to lolicon pornography.

Note A: while the term can be used for either real or animated girls, it is rarely used to refer to pornography depicting real children (cp).

Note B: often the term "loli" (like related terms) is misused to refer to infant, adolescent, etc. girls. Strictly speaking, however, the term refers only to prepubescent girls (primarily ages 4-12)


People often confused short as loli and some people even go as far to claim their characters are "legal lolis" because they really have no idea what they are talking about.

We also need to remember Japan has a legal age of 16, like half of America and some other countries. While some countries/states are 18+ or 21+

Oddly enough 95% of the characters in PSO2 are above 18.

[Zorafim]

I define a loli as a sexualized young girl, in an anime style. Since most of the outfits in this game are sexual in nature, this kinda extends the definition of loli over any young girl character.

I should note that, if I'm not mistaken, the phrase came from the act of dressing a young looking woman in youthful, doll like clothing for sexual purposes. So since lolis never have anything to do with real children, I suppose a better definition may be the a person or character sexualized by use of childlike imagery, specifically in a japanese style. I don't think dressing 18 year olds as school children counts, even though it's almost the same thing, since it's a western style and normally focuses on the woman's mature body anyway.

What I meant is I've seen in a lot of things, especially sexualized crap, where in western things, they try to get/show/view of those that are just above the legal mark.
The only difference is in most of the western world the legal age is 18 so they push it to that age (even though I heard some places in the US the legal age is/was 17 and 16).
Japan is no different. The only difference is they're pushing near the borderline legal age which is 16.

Lolita Fashion (http://cdn.okccdn.com/php/load_okc_image.php/images/1x1/500x1000/0x0/0x0/0/17504376190381501821) is (usually) actually about modesty based off victorian styles and isn't really meant to be sexualized... That's not to say people don't sexualize it, but that's like saying Furries are all about Yiffing. Lolita fashion usually does emphasize a youthful dollish look, but isn't really about actual kids and most real life Lolitas are adults. That's not even getting into the whole subculture that goes beyond the appearances, but I don't know as much about that.

Lolicon however is short for Lolita Complex, and is in refrence to the book lolita (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolita) and refers to a sexual interest in underaged girls or girls who look underage. Usually in japanese media the term Lolicon is used to refer to people who are interested in, or percieved to be interested in underaged girls or girls who look underaged (again, either seriously or in jest). I've RARELY heard Loli on it's own used but like in the west I think it's used to refer to characters or people who are underaged, or look it, usually to mock someone else's interest in them. If I remember correctly at least. Either way, Lolicon has nothing to do with how they dress or act, only if they're treated as a potential object of sexual attraction while having physical features usually associated with being underage (flat chest+small height+baby face).

The problem is a lot of Lolita characters in games an anime have childlike features even if they're sexualized so there's a lot of confusion between the terms.

Lol at this entire thread.

[yoshiblue]

I'm telling you, it was quite the field trip.

[Zorafim]

I only read the last page, what did I miss?

[Kondibon]

I only read the last page, what did I miss?Nothing honestly. Anyone who's been on these forums more than a week has seen everything in this thread before.

That lolita vs lolicon thing is important though. I need to protect the sanctity of appropriated street culture in japan. :wacko:

[Zorafim]

I do really like the... lolita? style. I find it visually striking. And it works very well when modeled by japanese women, who can easily make themselves to look young.

I, for one, approve of this thread hijacking. I have learned something today.

[Zorafim]

Seriously, considering how much more interesting the hijacks are than the original topics (which normally die out by page five), I often wonder why people complain about threads being derailed.

People only complain if there's an actual topic. This thread never had one.

Yeah but when does that ever happen? And isn't it more beneficial to just continue the topic yourself than to complain about it being derailed?
Oh. I think I just got why people don't like PSOW.

[Maenara]

Just drink the koolaid.

[Vatallus]

Seems relevant.

[Zorafim]

I don't know why you'd subject yourself to that.

My posts are simply too SJW for him to comprehend, because I corrected him on my gender one time and then another time I said it wasn't cool to make fun of people with serious mental illnesses.

Lolita fashion and Lolicon are seperate things, and I think this is where a lot of confusion comes from (because there's a TON of overlap in anime in games).

Lolita Fashion (http://cdn.okccdn.com/php/load_okc_image.php/images/1x1/500x1000/0x0/0x0/0/17504376190381501821) is (usually) actually about modesty based off victorian styles and isn't really meant to be sexualized... That's not to say people don't sexualize it, but that's like saying Furries are all about Yiffing. Lolita fashion usually does emphasize a youthful dollish look, but isn't really about actual kids and most real life Lolitas are adults. That's not even getting into the whole subculture that goes beyond the appearances, but I don't know as much about that.

Lolicon however is short for Lolita Complex, and is in refrence to the book lolita (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolita) and refers to a sexual interest in underaged girls or girls who look underage. Usually in japanese media the term Lolicon is used to refer to people who are interested in, or percieved to be interested in underaged girls or girls who look underaged (again, either seriously or in jest). I've RARELY heard Loli on it's own used but like in the west I think it's used to refer to characters or people who are underaged, or look it, usually to mock someone else's interest in them. If I remember correctly at least. Either way, Lolicon has nothing to do with how they dress or act, only if they're treated as a potential object of sexual attraction while having physical features usually associated with being underage (flat chest+small height+baby face).

The problem is a lot of Lolita characters in games an anime have childlike features even if they're sexualized so there's a lot of confusion between the terms.

I don't think Isn't the victorian look considered gothic lolita and not simply lolita?

[Kondibon]

;3289256']I don't think Isn't the victorian look considered gothic lolita and not simply lolita?Gothic Lolita is simply a subset of Lolita that has dark/gothic themes.

EDIT: It's also worth mentioning that Lolita fashion isn't meant to be straight period dress, just inspired by victorian fashion.

[Sayara]

They wont come to the west because of forum posts like these.

Closed.
