    I mean NA has such a different culture. It's crazy.

    I was doing Eureka back in the days on both NA and EU and coming from EU to NA was a culture shock. Like on EU all players waited before pulling notorious monsters, often up to 5+ minutes. On NA it was always pull on sight no matter how many players are on the way. JP can also raid perfectly fine with macros via the dutyfinder. They don't complain about having to run old extremes in mentor roulette while NA players cry their eyes out about it. Same with the shout chat, on NA it's a mess in big hubs and on JP and EU it's all quiet.

    NA is just a different world.

    I agree about the cultural difference.
    There is a reason as to why I hear that the NA culture is more about "me" where JP is more of a "we" culture.

    That hasn't been my experience. My experience has been that people typically wait reasonable amounts of time before pulling on NA servers, like 5 minutes or so, longer if it's Pagos.

    Definitely wasn't how it was at the height of Eureka's activity. Outside of the big NMs like Pazuzu, Cassie, Penny, Louhi and PW just about every NM was pulled within seconds of spawning. The big NMs all but required a small army which means people waited. Usually didn't have to wait long though.

    I see. I started during Shadowbringers so my experience with Eureka would have been significantly different than those who played it when it was current.

    That sounds boring and kind of cold and impersonal. I rather enjoy our shout chat. We sometimes have whole conversations about random things. Or someone asks for help and like 10 people are happy to pipe up. Or someone starts singing the Pokemon song and gets everyone started (We do that with our PFs too). Sometimes people get salty about something and get into slap fights in shout chat. But for the most part on my server it's pretty positive. And it makes the community feel like a community.
