    Thought this was funny comparison

    I laughed when I went to the JP technical support forum where there are literally only two posts-

    http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/f...83%BC%E3%83%88

    I'm pretty sure they are experience problems as well, but I find this stark contrast between NA forums and JP forums hilarious. Perhaps all these errors during beta and the subsequent (or lack thereof) NA customer service is finally getting to me.

    maybe because they do not feel the need to whine and cry as much as the rest of the people on here do? it's a thought, considering their servers have just as many issues.

    Perhaps they're used to getting a shit sandwich when they clearly paid for a tuna on rye. I've been not playing since the open beta, their servers have had considerably less problems.

    To answer both of you, I'm pretty sure it's because of two general reasons-

    1st- Japanese people use blogs / micro-blogs more often to voice their opinions. If they're pissed at the login issues, they're probably voicing it on their blogs.
    2nd- Japanese culture is geared towards patience as a value. Roots in shinto and buddist culture developed this throughout Japanese history. Not that this is any better since you end up with a culture of complacency.

    Also many them may, have been taught the english language. And just see are threads , Also if you notice there is a post. That they got on one there forums, that got like 430k views and not many pages on it , and I google translated it and it them complaining about the logging issues. Like one dude said they tend not to use forums and post all the time somewhere else, but seem to just view the post. Also there issues with the account stuff, Has been getting fixed quickly Since different customer service unit, Plus it sounds like the NA/EU version of the game, Sold a ton of copies, I would bet the NA/EU version sold 5+ to 1 or more since NA/EU world wide compared To how many copies that sold in Japan.
