Dear all SEA player (VITA & pc)

[DestinyWings]

How is Sega not at least partially at fault for offering this either offering or accepting the terms of the license agreement with Asiasoft? Both companies profit from the IP block not just Asiasoft.

Taiwan didn't get IP blocked, Asiasoft asked for it.

And Sega accepted it cause they like money. It's still a contract that benefits both sides. Don't forget, Sega keeps logs of people's IPs who log in. Taiwan may not access PSO JP much and therefore didn't warrant an IP ban while a good number of SEA people access it and therefore it does. We don't know the details of the license agreement but we do know that Sega is one of the parties that signed it cause it would be profitable for them to do so.

Sega has been lenient to us for a long time, that's why I don't blame them. If Asiasoft didn't get involved there would be no problems.

And Sega is a business, why wouldn't they accept money?
It could also be one of the requirement for Asiasoft to buy PSO2, to have IP block.

I think it's an added option if they pay extra money.

Blaming a business for trying to make money 0.0...LOL
IMO, Asiasoft paid SEGA quite a hefty sum to IP Block the SEA players since it would have not benefited SEGA to just IP block the players just because they have access to their own server as everyone is a potential paying customer.

That's the thing though, becoming a potential paying customer in PSO2JP requires you to jump through a lot of hoops if you're not living in Japan. The main benefit that Sega gets for the IP block is that someone is paying them for the hosting rights to their game. They're getting the money from Asiasoft instead of the potential money from the SEA players which apparently weren't paying enough for Sega to care otherwise about the block.
