Are We Wasting Our Time?

[Laraul]

It's not their way of designing games which we question, but their lie about giving us a vote in the matter. If they simply shut us out and did their own thing, or reserved forums for bug reports alone, no one would be bitching here. But this is very much bitch-worthy.

I have two words that need to be said. Grow Up.

If you really want to simplify this issue down to 2 words it seems to me that paying customers are being told.

Bend over.

This is a joke right? I seriously suggest you translate whatever you "translate" into Japanese back into English before posting it to understand what kind of nonsense you are going to spout.

The development team doesn't speak much (if any) English. Everything from non Japanese speaking players has to be translated by a person before they can understand it. This is time consuming process and honestly a waste of resources.

Also the vote count is meaningless. The reasons behind a decision matter more than an actual vote count. What's wrong with a Hyppoglyph. I think it makes more sense than a Scorpion.

In the case of a simple vote (ie. "scorpion") google translate would work just fine. Single JP words ussually translate very easily or you could just copy/paste from an english > jp dictionary. Also you can use google translate to find a vote by someone else and just copy/paste that. It's not really out of the question.

Do you even play bst? How does it "make more sense" - and which vermin jug do you usually use? Cause there are so many awesome vermin jugs amirite?

Actually no I don't. I do beleive the Scorpion model is too large for a Jug... where as the Hippoglyph is a better sized. To elaberate too big = bad for game play. I think that's what the decision boiled down too. Better game play mechanics. Not favoritism.

But the small Adamantoise model isn't too big? >.> its bigger than most scorpion models. Your logic is flawed.

I'm annoyed and irked by this (the having a vote and ignoring it) but honestly not surprised.

Have you even seen ChopsueyChucky?
I'll go with the benefit of the doubt though and assume you meant "too big = bad for NEW gameplay"

Several things to note:
You are talking about a JAPANESE game, BASED in Japan, STAFFED by Japanese. Even if it's not intentional, there will be favoring towards the Japanese. This is a fact of the game and hasn't changed in nearly 10 years.
Like I just said, this problem is nothing new and barely affects anything. A random BST vote (that they didn't need to give us anyway) and maintenance times? Who cares...

I wouldn't care if they blatantly told us they perferred JP over NA, since they are providing me a service I find enjoyable regardless. If "racism" was an issue for me, and I perceived this as "racism" then I suppose the way to protest would be to quit and stop giving them your money. Not run to there own forums and start whining about a decade old issue you have with it.

People need to stop acting like they are entitled to equal treatment. This isnt the US Supreme Court, its a video game THEY OWN and can do anything they want with. SE is allowed to be as racist or fair as it wants.

Maybe NA players don't get a say in anything all because of the bad things we say after changes are made? lol, probably not...but I understand you guys. There was a similar issue dealing with BLU's heavy strike if I remember correctly.

Some can take their criticisms too far, sure, but extracting the kernels of truth from all the noise isn't a bad thing.

Far as the jug issue goes, I don't really see a problem why they can't add all the suggested pets, if not all at once, at least eventually.
