    Yes, because amazon reviews section is such an unbiased and authoritative source to use in determining the mindset of the entire JP playerbase It's about as good of an idea as it is to use 4ch to judge the intelligence of the human race.

    Nihonjinron, terrible translation technology and general culture... I can see it happening.
    Of course there were those who were against global server on the JP side, just like there were those against it in the NA/EU side for various reasons, some more valid than others - neither side has a monopoly on a-holes.

    Wanting to play on a regional server doesn't make you an a-hole.

    Which is why I specifically said there were valid and non-valid reasons, the a-hole is reserved for those who were against it due to racial inclinations.
