JP Only

[DNO]

It's actually pretty known it's not discrimination or anything but people always state it as such so their point can be stronger, anyone who's played XI or even followed it knows a lot of Japanese players explained what they meant by 'JP Only', majority are wanting people in the same time frame or speak the same language. I've seen a great deal of "French/German Only" In my time in FFXI as well, were they discriminating against everyone else? More than likely not, people always take something the most negative way possible.



Then we'll have complaints x time period is a lot less lively versus y time period. Also this sentence was kind of confusing, the language barrier only exists because despite playing a Japanese Game most people don't even attempt to learn at least basic Japanese to communicate, it goes a long way, just like people of other nations are usually forced to learn some English.

The good thing about XI and XIV is that they're international games that actually mix servers, all MMOs with segregated servers only see English servers with most population (surprise) and the rest are fairly low and generally less cared for by Admins. Also, I see a lot of people who don't just speak English playing on 'English Only' servers because it usually has higher population, so in the end it does absolutely nothing.

I LIVE, WORK and play my video games in AMERICA. Here ALL products released are in ENGLISH. We are playing the ENGLISH version of a JP game.

With that being said why the hell should i learn basic JP? to party with people who want nuthin to do with me? If anything in AMERICA if we chose to learn a second language its OBVIOUSLY spanish. thats a stupid thought. Every other MMO has servers based on language. SE is BEHIND on this and that is why they are changing it.

Im FLOORED that you think its confusing for a product sold in America that people want to play with ENGLISH speaking people. Im... i ... i can't even comprehend that logic.

EDit:

People in other nations learn ENGLISH because more people speak it. Schools in America know this and are not required to do so. no one needs to learn JP im sorry.
