how is eso handling the launch of the game in japan
ok so will there be a japanese server if so will aussys be able to transfer to it ... will the server tech be better than the hamster currently running the na server ....
if no new servers for japanese server will the current server tech recieve a much needed upgrade instead of having 1 hamster wheel will you employ a 2nd or 3rd hamster

✭✭✭✭✭Like all other mmo companies that release all over the world, it's just a way to make more money. Don't expect anything groundbreaking or new as that would cost more money and this is all about releasing an established game at the lowest cost possible in order to maximize profits.
This way if it flops, they will not have spent tonnes of capital getting it set up.0 -

It will probably flop because of the weaboo and waifu culture. Players in those region expect their characters to be a slim muscly bishonen guy with unreal hairstyle, or a big-boobed fair-skinned lolita girl also with unreal colorful hairstyle. A game where a quarter of the population are two-leggged lizards or glum-faced dark-skinned midgets would have trouble getting a foothold there.
But hey, at least there's the Khajiits. Japanese like cute things like cats, so perhaps the Khajiiti can be capitalized upon. I don't care how ZOS do it, as long as I get an Asian server

I play from Aus and the ping difference from NA to Japan is literally 20ms in games. Ontop of that I don't speak japanese so I doubt ill be transferring over, not to mention the other issues I have with this game.
I also predict it will flop pretty fast in Japan, they tend not to put up with buggy broken western games.
Edit: because you can't abbreviate Japan...Edited by Thornen on June 16, 2016 5:02PM0
