The problem being, based on past PS games, in stead of giving us something different and unique to our region, they either give us the same thing, or nothing at all, that, and the character design wont change, just the available costumes.
Actually the SEA version of the game is getting something basing on their culture (costume-wise) but I don't remember where is the link of the previews but the clothes in the previews looks better than most of what JP PSO2 is having atm. But yea, character design will stay the same because can you imagine the amount of money being put into it to do such a thing when the game is already out? Might as well just a new game instead if that happens.
If there is ever a western version, I'm betting that it'll get the same treatment of "culturalization" along with the seasonal EQs and that's probably bout it.
My main (Kelly) is now 65/65 Gu/Hu.
2nd Character (Archer) is now 65/65 Br/Hu or Hu/Br depending on what katana I'm using.
3rd character (Locust) is now 44/34 Fi/Hu (ohohohooh I love knuckles).
4th Character (Aerial) is now currently standing at 45/45 Te/Fo (Love it).
If I'm ever in-game and anyone wants to hit me up, player ID is the same as my IGN name tag.
I still think a domestic release is more accessible to the general populace not willing to deal with the tweaker (which is awesome, so I donated some money towards).
I will play the US over JP if its ever released. I think my biggest issue with JP PSO2 is it pushed itself to a very anime look and feel. While I do enjoy anime, I prefer the original PSO character asthetics. Another rumor is different costumes and items for a localized version and that's appealing, as characters running around in bikinis doesn't really "do it" for me.
The new 70 Falz is a real PoS, right now: times are not great for people in the US and even with 450% rare boost, I'm not even seeing 10* weapons, much less 11* and 12*.
Yea some people are just avoiding the JP version either: they want it in EN, avoid being banned, macro-transactions is too much a pain in the as, or they don't won't to deal with the Foreign stuffs from story to whatever.
Well Falz gave me an 11* few weeks ago (regular lol) but I've been getting 10*s left and right out of EQs. Also, Falz has shitty drop rates even with boosted RDR even for his 10*s.
