Also, I'd like to spend retarded amounts of money on this US server.

Amusingly enough, I knew someone would misread the word block.



And it will be GLORIOUS.

yeah, because, uh, the proper word is blockade

"The Vita Blockades"

So I've only found out that Atelier Totori Plus was localized and released on PSN, even if there wasn't an official announcement, it just popped up and BAM on PSN, I'm going to assume that Sega is going to pull a similar stunt with the international release. An it released so suddenly too, nobody noticed except for a few hardcore players who then passed on the word.

I give it a year or two before they close the servers. "Lack of interest" they will claim.

Lack of interest usually does mean lack of interest. Game servers tend to shut down when they don't make back the money it costs for them to host it. The reasoning for the lack of interests is a completely different matter altogether.

SEGA is working with Valve/Steam on a release schedule.


That's the best thing I can think of for NA release.

I'm pretty sure that was his point ^_^

They are waiting to release multiple international versions at once, including EU, KR, and SEA servers. Since they are doing individual localization work for each region, I imagine that's what we're waiting on.

That and the insane Americanization that's going to be going into the western release. Expect massive censorship on clothing, the complete removal of AC scratch (and thus, an entire rework on the game's loot tables or AC/FUN functions), and possibly the removal or extreme limitations of symbol chats.

Why do you expect so much change? Especially curious about why you expect limitation of symbol chats...
