it is a tacked on mode, not a e-sport ... it was trash in JP and it will remain trash in NA. Just accept it.

PSO2 PvP is not an e-sport, it doesn't have the greatest netcode, it is just a tacked-on time killer. Sometimes its lag, sometimes its latency ... Rarely is it a hacker ... I repeat you are not going to get E-Sport netcode quality out of SEGA in this mode, they only threw it in there on a kind of because. It wasn't super popular in Japan either.

@Mattwo7 Sorry my friend I honestly lost the attention span for this. Not your fault, i derailed myself. My POINT was that the censorship is all around and the goal post keeps getting moved. The moment "it" hits the NA filter it has already been mangled, period. The only way to get the "Authentic experience" is to learn Japanese and get the raws. Im not defending NA companies, never have, never will. In some ways I think we are saying simular (but not the same) things but keep missing a common ground. Anyway :fistbump:

@ZorokiHanuke l m a o ... okay this was screencap worthy for me.

@Mattwo7 okay so what are we arguing about? I am now lost.

@Mattwo7 I commend your faith sir ... That is not sass ... I just don't have your optimism when I have seen so much censorship and virtue-signaling in places that have no reason for it. To me, nothing is "sacred" anymore. I wish I had your optimism. PS Disney (who owns Marvel) is the biggest offender in this, the good news is they are hemorrhaging cash so they may not have that much power anymore by the end of the year.

@Mattwo7 Im not talking about the book itself or the anime. That is separate. Im talking about the LN being sold in books stores, as in bookstore sales. Not the author or the author drama. It fell outside of the classification laws of the AU and thus was banned. Yes. And the politician who got the book banned is bragging about it, what am I supposed to think? This is recent not, 7 years ago. Besides NA could care less about that, all they care about is Manga and LN overtaking the comics market and thus needing to be controlled. Censorship lets you do just that. Its profit that is driving this, not morals .. the moral police tack on "Think of the keeedzzz" so everything fits the narrative.

@Mattwo7 Australia took an axe to her (The books are banned) so did Amazon, it is only a matter of time before NA follows suit; incoming bans ... Just you watch. When they need another smoke screen they are coming for your animu.

@Xaiyeon Only after people stop making every counter-argument about "You must be a degenerate" or "Go play p0rn games" or "You must be one of those people" ... This counter-argument has no basis on reality (other than a self-constructed fantasy) and is just as bad as the reposts, additionally it is just a shabby way to debate. Wee-man is not a kid and Brad Williams is not a child. Context is not a vacuum you can fill with whatever you want.
