Why the JP community mentality is superior to the EN community mentality

Well, you’re always welcome to join a JP server. :P

and I can't wait for him to come back crying wondering why he can't join any group whatsoever later because he kept letting his "individuality" slip out like he does in these forums.

This right here is honestly why our country won't survive. It's the typical response. Speaking from an American point of view. And I always found it funny.

It's like, if you're on a ship that's sinking, and someone points out that the ship over there is cleaner and is actually staying afloat and will get you to your destination safely, and you respond with, "Well, you're welcome to get on that ship!", I'm like...



Uh...okay. The ship you're on is literally sinking. You are literally going to die. Welp! Okie doke! Have fun in the afterlife!

... what? This analogy makes absolutely no sense. They're simply saying go to a JP server if you prefer how they handle pugs than trying to force their preferences onto us.

It's typical for a reason - when people live their lives, there's rarely just a single answer on how to do so. Games are not much different.

Okay, so Japan clears content a bit sooner. Maybe their clears are more consistent. Big freakin' whoop. When players on non-Jp servers enjoy the game their way, I hardly see how they're a 'sinking ship.'

So yeah...if you really believe that the way Jp servers conduct themselves is far superior, then join them.

Here's the thing. The response I quoted is pervasive in nearly every facet of American culture. "Love it or leave it!". It applies to politics, sports, movies, video games, etc. And it's been illustrated in this thread.

Now if someone just wants to post how [insert country here] is just so superior than the US in almost everything they do without offering any constructive feedback about how we can implement similar things in a way that benefits the country and fits with our culture, then yes, by all means, move to that country.

But the response of "You're welcome to join them," is the go-to retort. Even to constructive criticism. Hence, the sinking ship analogy.

Well, we DO have a Lightwarden as our President. We need us an EXARCH.

Spoilers...

Well, we're certainly doing a fine job of setting up a doomed future for him to come back from.



...oh wait, wasn't there that joke theory about Greta being a time traveller...?

Funny. I thought internet forums about online games were where politics were not supposed to be brought up.

You know that you can quote multiple persons in one post? It's a lot better than 4 seperate posts back to back.
