My favorite thing about these kinds of topics is that when NA launched and had cut all the old-type weapons people were fine with that. Even if it's led to a weird balance issue where we're vastly over powered and there's almost no upgrade content for us for the entirety of episode 4. Not many people complained.

But height limitations and a cut story scene from what has since it's JP release been considered the worst part of the entire game? People crawl out of the woodwork again and again to cry about how the game is missing content and it's been censored as if being able to jerk off to little girls is the single most vital piece of "content" the game had to offer.

It's hilariously transparent.

@ZorokiHanuke said in Episode 4 story is disgusting:

Ok, I keep hearing the story is bad, but the part OP mentioned about age difference, I think it has to do with how Japan sees things like the mixing of age, romance and even sex. Americans will most likely never get to terms with what the Japanese writers can come up with. Many manga/anime stories I've seen come with stuff I wouldn't have included and from my view, seem either excessive or just not plain fitting the rest of the story. But I put up with it because I know the media was not made for me, but for people who understood and live daily with such tropes.

Like an hypothetical example, having a cute slice of life anime with a bunch of kids or something, whose purpose is mainly to calm and relax the viewer, but suddenly adding pantsu, little girls in compromising situations, and pervert/sex tropes in the middle of it, just to switch back into the first theme about calmness and stuff. We will see this a lot in Japanese writing, so I suppose those watching/reading, should try to get used to it, because that's pretty much their norm based on their own culture.

Remember we are just watchers of something not made within our shores nor for us, so differences are to be expected.

The Japanese are not literal aliens my dude. They are not a monolithic whole and just because you see some weird shit in anime meant to cater specifically to pocket miners doesn't mean all of Japan is into that garbage. That's like saying everyone in America absolutely loves to bone down with their siblings and it's completely okay because you watched game of thrones, and clearly it's a norm in this culture.

This is the inherent problem with weebs: you don't ever seem to realize that Japan isn't Anime: The Country and take everything you see in a cartoon as 100% face value fact about a place you've never been and people you'll never meet.

Also fetishising underaged girls and their underpants is really gross, regardless of whether or not you're compromising an otherwise competent work of media to do so.

It cracks me up how people in the NA community don't seem to realize that it's inevitable that we will get better gear. Yes Saiki would get outclassed eventually. Eventually our nemesis/slave weapons will be swapped out for more shit, so will our ray units. That's how MMOs typically work. You can't expect to keep charging people top dollar for items that are worthless.

Well I mean if you wanna look at it that way, inevitably all your gear will be worthless when NG hits, so why even bother at all.

Because I still want to play the content before NG comes out, so I'll continue to get gear so I can get stronger so I can do more content.

@Nuebot

despite most of that, I commend Bananas for being a hefty contributing player to the game. That's the reason NG will have future commercials in the west, online or offline and so on its our contributions that keep this thing running strong along with Sega keeping it afloat.

There are ways to support the game without pissing it down the drain on SG Scratch though.

Wait so let me get this straight: You rolled multiple times on the SG scratch and got nothing of value, made a thread about that, and rolled more on the no good awful SG scratch despite your poor experience that it's clearly been terrible, complained again, and then despite having two hefty batches of awful experiences you then thought "Well, maybe it'll be different this time, I might have spent one hundred dollars on this and gotten literally nothing to show for it but maybe if I spend another hundred things will be different?" And much like the shocked pikachu meme you stare aghast, mouth open and eyes twinkling at the result it's not different at all, is it Steve? It's not different at all!

I dunno man, you want to know why the SG scratch sucks so hard? It's because people keep spending on it. They won't listen to complaints as long as people keep blindly spending money.

@Sephlock said in Summer AC scratch with school swimsuit tanlines but not the swimsuit itself:

The desperation in this thread is palpable.

"Sukumizu (スク水), short for school mizugi (スクール水着, sukūru mizugi, lit. "school swimsuit"), is a variant of swimwear intended for use by school students during swimming lessons in Japan."

People are expressing their deepest most shameful weeb in this thread.

luv 2 fetishize children's fashion

Who are you and why do you matter?

This AC scratch is two combined together with added bloat so lmao have fun.
