The Emporer's New Clothes (New Chinese Exclusive Items)

[GMERC]

I do believe the Japanese version uses the original/partner culture name but for English speakers none would know and none would be incorrect for using the name they were given by the studio. It IS nimbus now (for DBZ at least), even if in another language it's not.

Would be a bit like telling SE they screwed up because they called it Kirin instead of Qilin.

The Kirin / Qilin analogy is closer to Kinto'un / Jindouyun, rather than Nimbus. Nimbus is more like if they had renamed Kirin "Unicorn"

Except Kirin isn't a Unicorn lol (It's not a horse with a horn, its a chimera like creature usually fish, dragon, deer and stuff like that). Nimbus is a modified Jindouyun. If anything Nimbus is probably painting a far more accurate representation of what people want than Kinto'un.

Most people don't know that Wukong can step on clouds or do massive jumps and all that stuff, they're thinking "magical cloud I can ride!". For them to say Nimbus tells me a lot more about what they want than if they said I want to Kinto'un!!

I don't think you understand either.

The Emperor's New Clothes = nudity.

Besides, Korea and China have both been getting region exclusives relative to their cultures regularly. We have not.

no actually i do understand what he meant i was stating that the image suits that of chinese dynasty era

A good business decision, sure. But at the price of excluding a huge chunk of your playerbase. It's wrong, unfair, and if done too much, can really upset the people who are being excluded (and possibly affect profit as a result).

Entitlement
en•ti•tle•ment
/inˈtīdlmənt,enˈtīdlmənt/
noun
noun: entitlement; plural noun: entitlements
1. the fact of having a right to something.
"full entitlement to fees and maintenance should be offered"
synonyms: right, prerogative, claim;
2. the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.
"no wonder your kids have a sense of entitlement" just be happy we got the game and mog store they could have say "to hell with you NA data centers you dont get this." but they didnt they gave you a cookie now shhh...stop being salty

You know that next to being "fans" we are customers? Thus we are allowed to voice our criticisms if we find something not good? I mean this is not charity, we did not get the game for free. We pay for it monthly so I am sorry but this gives us the right to voice our opinion. It has nothing to do with entitlement..

If you go into a shop and buy the same thing someone else did and that person gets a discount for some strange reason and you dont, normally people will complain about it being not fair.

SE can do what they want but in the end they are a company that needs money to survive and if they piss off too many customers with such things than they will loose money . One might not stop paying for this product because of exclusive stuff but if there are more negative points than that...well lots of small things can also get people to stop paying for it. Maybe there are some Square Enix or Final Fantasy Fans that will always keep giving them money, even if SE behaves the worst way but in this world even a big company like SE needs to watch out for their customers. Especially with so many games out there.

(Calling other people kids even though they might be way older than you is kinda disrespectful. You can have your own opinion on this but being rude is never the way to go.)

It has nothing to do with entitlement.

Actually it does. You are entitled to have an opinion of something by default. We call that basic freedom or human rights - you're even entitled to an opinion of something you never participated in, from idle games over work, politics to crimes.
And as stakeholder, that opinion naturally carries some weight in the stakeholder approach of corporate governance.

There's no need to deny the involvement of entitlement. It's just a hollow buzzword.

There are already screenshots of the outfit in the game, I have put in this other post if you want to see them Here!

Looks pretty cool imo, I like beads and and dangling things (..plz no lol). Do the beads have physics? Like the ones on the jacket included, looks like the ones on the hat have a minor amount at least. I would doubt that many items would have physics but that'd certainly be something.

Also no scroll "book" weapon right? I really think that'd be a neat looking glamour ;3

I do belive these are the 'Emperor's Clothes'.
Not the 'Emperor's New Clothes'.

Bit of a difference.

Both the Chinese and Korean Dress have been the same price so far, and while it is more expensive than other cash shop outfits, it's no 30 dollar moogle mount

I'd absolutely love to have this in our version, but tbh, I expect it to look a lot worse ingame xD
Concept Art always makes clothes look so much more smooth and flowy and pretty, and then ingame it's always the same stiff texture..
But yeah. Want it. Gimme.

Just, you know, the actual clothes. Not REAL emperor's new clothes..

Well now I'm just salty. That looks amazing and not too over the top. I'd ditch the hat personally, but the robe and kilt look fantastic.
