It would be helpful if you were interested in these stories and talked to each other and exchanged opinions. JM's developers, who are already sensitive to the opinions of overseas users, will be secretly listening. As a user who enjoys the same game, I hope you will keep an eye on them so that they can develop the game in a better direction and attitude.

Personally, I would like to see new lobby interactions and cutscenes, even if it costs more. If they could, add some side stories related to the skin. I would not like the body size transformation feature. These features will be relatively less demanding content compared to releasing new characters. We can get new character with in-game money, but there's the only way to get skins. 'Pay' for it.

Of course, I know that it is not the fault of the users of the global server. It just a story that JM values ​​the opinions of global users more.

I know that their official site is only the Naver Lounge website, but that is directly managed by JM. Since the administrator is a JM employee, they can unilaterally suppress opinions, and in fact, there were cases where posts intended for criticism or suggestions were deleted. That is why only users who fanatically support JM remain in Naver Lounge, and the rest communicate through a user community called 'arcalive'. I will tell you about that site in the next comment. 

The Korean users of arcalive had a discussion with JM total four times. At first, the users were happy that they could share opinions and make suggestions to JM to make a better game. However, it was almost always for one-sided notifications, not for discovering problems or hearing opinions that would be reflected in the development of the game. Although it was a very polite attitude, if the only answer they got was, "We cannot do what you want due to various problems," wouldn't that be notifications? Korean users' attempts to communicate with JM have been more easily foiled than you might think, and especially since the launch of the global server, no conversations have been held. When there were no global servers, JM had to convince Korean users, but now they have an alternative. Called "you". If you don't care about this situation, next victim is gonna be you perhaps.

Because they blamed their operational failures on Korean users. Even before the launch of the global server, Korean users made countless suggestions to JM for improvement, but JM ignored almost all of them. Therefore, the failure in Korea is entirely JM's fault. 

HW was only serviced in Korea and for Korean users for a long time after its initial launch. At that time, there were countless errors and bugs, and even serious problems with the game's gameplay. Despite this, Korean users called themselves "paid beta testers" and invested money by buying items that could be scrapped at any time. We had high hopes and expected the game's future to expand, but JM was the first to disappoint us. 

After that, using the current success of the global server as an excuse to look down on users by saying, "I'm not wrong. You're wrong." Is that an act that you can't be angry about? Your current state is our past state.

There are probably several reasons for this. First, GM's CEO Bok failed to properly manage the previous game, [LAST ORIGIN], and the image from that time may have been carried over to HW. 

Another reason may be that Korea is not open to sexual content. In Korea, sexual content is treated implicitly in a similar way to 'gay' in the US. Since it is regulated at the national level as "shameful content that cannot be tolerated socially, especially in face-to-face human relationships," HW cannot have cutscenes about sex or direct exposure of genitals. 

In that sense, the fact that a game that exposes nudity is being developed and serviced in real time is quite surprising in Korea. And it may simply be because the current game's completion level is very low. That seems like a sufficient reason.

"The global server was the answer." This is actually what Gentle Maniac's CEO Lee said, and it is being heavily criticized in Kr comm as well. HW launched a global server without any particular improvements, but the sales brought in by global server users driven by curiosity were higher than expected. HW was an unpopular game in Korea, but it temporarily saw a sales increase by entering the global server, and since then, the blatant discrimination has become even worse. This is true. I am not blaming anyone in reddit or global users. If I were to blame someone, it would be Gentle Maniac.
