    Say you're upset. Just don't be that One Person that has everyone shaking their head.

    I vote in favor of removing this thread.
    The title is a play off "Give me liberty or give me death." - I thought that would be obvious - and between that and the hypothetical reset to level 50, I clearly know what seppuku is.

    I'm not actually advocating for the dev team to implement ritualistic suicide - I thought that would be obvious - I'm merely saying that the 6.1 changes to samurai are egregious enough that if I could reset to level 50 as a means to protest them, I would.

    "Just don't be that One Person that has everyone shaking their head." Good advice.

    I vote in favor of you heeding your own advice.

    For what it's worth I thought it was funny. And I got the reference too. I blame the American school system; nobody knows who Patrick Henry was anymore.

    In all probability, I knew who Patrick Henry was before you were born.

    "Give me liberty or give me death" was not used as a joke back then, and it shouldn't be used in that manner now.

    Say what you mean. Do not use what you consider clever euphemisms. I know what you meant, and I didn't like your flippant reference, especially due to the fact that this game is written first and foremost for a Japanese audience.

    Kaiten is not liberty. The Seppuku reference was in bad taste at best.

    I have reported it, and hope that the moderators remove this duplicate thread from the forums. You've already registered your complaint. Your words were not funny.

    If you knew what I meant you wouldn't have thought that I didn't know what seppuku was, so you're either lying about knowing what I meant or you're failing to take your own advice again re: "Say what you mean."

    What part of "There is no such thing in this game, nor should anyone be advocating for it." did you not understand?

    What part of "It was a joke" did you not understand? He's explained that it was a joke, and a riff on the phrase "Give me Liberty or give me death." If you continue this, you're going to keep going round in circles, so I suggest backing off and letting it be. You've made your point, you've done your report and if the moderators agree with you, the thread'll be deleted. If not, you'll just have to get off your high horse and deal with it.

    Hate to break it to you, but there's concepts known as subjectivity and diversity of opinion. Some people like dark humour like the OP, and some take offense to it like you're doing now. You can butt heads all you like but neither of you are going to change the other's mind. Now if we could get back to critiquing the new SAM changes that'd be suuuuuuper!

    None, but you can't understand no one actually advocated for that. Go touch grass.

    I'll advocate for it if someone has to. I'd rather my SAM fell on her sword and went out with some honour and dignity rather than living with the shame of not having Kaiten.
    There, I've done it.

    *FOR LEGAL REASONS, THIS WAS A JOKE. A JAPE. A JEST. A QUIP. A WITTICISM. A WISECRACK AND/OR A GAG.*

    I don't think even grass can save him at this point
