i love how you white knights the japanese like they are your best friends.
japanese has bad apples.
NAs has good apples.
oh i also dont wake up when the japanese are going to bed, i play on the same timezone as them, just saying before i got accused as haters.
I love this, a complete diaster on XI's launch, then they learnt nothing and did it all over again! woot, now maybe on next game third times a charm
I can understand what you mean. I also used to party with the jp players a lot. I always enjoyed their party style over the typical NA player. They took what they had(at least the ones I partied with) and used it effectively. Even back in the loldrg era I could always count on a jp party.
lol even made some jp friends just using auto translate.
I like the way SE work, trying so hard, never give up, discuss with players and it's enough for me to keep my loyalty and respect in the game and the company
I guess the reason we never heard so much complaints about ffxi on release was because the JP had already worked the worst bits away before we could recieve it. From those notes it feels very much like XIV's release, and my hopes are raised futher =)
Even though the Fxi realease in Japan was bad they still had more content in 6 months of release and they never wanted to redo the battle system. To me FFXIV is way worse. still very very littlle content and their still do not know what direction they want to go in with the battle system.
I played XI up until lv80 and abyssea... then switched to XIV at beta.
One porblem with JP Culture is that they rarely try new "out of the box" type things. I found it was usually the NAs that tried new strategies for exp party or NMs etc. NA, while being dicks, were the ones to go out on a limb and try something new and sometimes strange. JP were good at replicating&improving on what others created.
OP:
I hope XIV gets better like XI did. I enjoy XIV but, like my work shirts, it does need some ironing.
