JP server player is calling us out. Step up, NA endgamers.

[Whiteroom]

Basically the problem with the NA community in general is that it forged into something that split up the community into something like factions. many different kinds too. Examples:Casuals, Bads/Baddies, Elitists, No-Lifers, etc. With these titles, that's where the discrimination or an almost sort of racism within the community itself.

People cannot clear end-game because people want experienced players to group up with because they want to win(Understandable. Who doesn't?). People don't want to tell people how or teach them because it can take time. People want others to watch videos so they can know the fight and may be irritated or upset if you do not watch the video. Alot of players probably feel irritated that they are almost required to watch them.

I personally hate watching videos and never watched another after I watched a T5 video and learned nothing. It's like studying for a test. And studying doesn't work for me. I just go in. I ask for a run-down inside. I watch the mechanics happen and I grasp it the first time. Now I know everyone isn't like me but, I can only clear stuff like that because they're in DF.

When PFs have requirements for.. A3S that say: "Must be experienced past add phase", They cut out ALOT of people. How can you, as a new guy, get experienced to past the add phase if you can't get into a group that'll let you in because you don't have experience?

And since statics can be very demanding, most people don't have the time or are able to handle them. Lots of statics in PF are made up of random people who you don't know, then you go in and get rekt...disbanded static. (This is based off of static horror stories I've read) Statics don't get their reps by themselves now. Alot of people I know have talked about how they don't have time for statics or they don't want to deal with the... hardcority of a static. That idea doesn't come from no where.

If the general content-doing PF community wasn't so demanding, people would probably get more content done. People already say that EXs shouldn't be put in DF at day 1 because most people probably won't beat it anyway. I find that dumb because there will always be PUGs that somehow beat things. And I bet the majority of the player base doesn't use PF.

And your whole post highlights one of the big problems by leaving it out.

Among all those PF examples, you never mentioned starting your own learning PF. There can be a learning PF there at any time of the day, because you can start one. This is a big problem, everyone wants the super experienced groups, even if they have no experience themselves.

How can you critisize groups for asking for up to a certian phase? Thats so selfish. They already put in all the time to learn the fight to that phase, and want to progress. Why should they go back to the stuff they were working on last week, to train you, when they don't even have a clear? To answer your question regarding "how your supposed to get past the add phase?" Look no further than above, you start your own group, and progress, just like they did.

Your comment about people expecting others to come prepared, via videos and the like is well... I mean people who play on the Japan servers say pretty much everyone comes prepared and with their homewok done of their own accord. And here you would bash that as well. These are the differences I see, no personal ownership here, the want for people to do your work for you.
