    Default Korean mmos

    Why koreans release so many mmos only for Korea .
    It would be better if they made from the start in Eng language and a global server. More profit for them , and better for players.

    cos korean is their native language, and koreans spend loads more $$$ on games.

    I dont think korea would release one of thier games to america. Mabey they dont like to translate stuff or send the game to other country.

    Cuz their English is bad, like most Asian.
    But then again, the Western can't speak any Eastern language either.

    But most don't. And some know but not good enough to translate the whole game.
    And I'm Asian. So I know.


    Of course, they are lazy and want the Publisher to handle the Localization is also another possibility xD

    The Koreans watch our threads too lol!

    They get mad when other people outside of South Korea want to play their games.

    My username was in there and they even posted the C9 thread with my username in it too.

    I'm not attacking any Asian or race, just stating a fact that if English is not their native language, don't expect them to use it to translate a game <_<'

    Yeah, I remember when Rappelz was still popular, and some ppl played on KR server to see the updates to feed info to English fansites.

    english is taught in most countries now, it's slowly becoming an international language.

    slowly? thought it WAS already an international language~ at least in all the technologically and economically developed countries...

    anyways, why wouldn't the Koreans not bring their mmos overseas? Never played any? Rappelz, Shaiya, Cabal, Dungeon Fighter Online, Mabinogi, Princeton Tale...what other numerous games are out there?

    If you are talking about the recent, high-graphic mmos out right now, its because they are still being developed/fixed/patched/updated constantly atm. Gotta give them credit for putting so much dedication in those games.
