the translations are better than any official translation sega has ever done


they are well known for being absolutely HORRENDOUS at translating anything (esp. french translation in sonic adventure 2 holy FUCK)


there are enough english speakers in the jp servers and if you're polite the japanese often don't mind communicating with very basic english to help you out. aside from the mentality of the players from different cultures there is literally NO advantage to playing a north american version of the game. it'll die faster and lose support, it'll have very few updates compared to its japanese counterpart (level caps, new levels, items, events, etc.) and I honestly don't feel like playing an anemic 2 year late version of phantasy star just so I can hear its awkward voice acting and a complete plethora of b20 weaboo autistic sonic furfags spamming awkward and tragically unfunny picture arts everywhere in game.
