Do not call me a facist. I never really called you anything, and I ask you to do the same. I don't support fascism, and I can't see how you got to that conclusion. All I said is that there is/was never a true capitalist country. I do, however, think capitalism is great. By the way, stop thinking that you are right. I have said that piracy is needed to an extent, I do understand your viewpoint. Stop being so arrogant and see the other side too. Thinking that I have 'zero stock' in my idea that piracy is wrong is ridiculous, it is a valid point that it should not be done. How can you believe in something that is illegal and wrong with such conviction?

By the way, if I'm against gaming piracy, I'm not a fascist and I don't suck someone's dick. You are the one that actually insulted someone for what they believe.

It can't be avoided in any country. But whatever, I'm done. I'm tired of coming here and thinking "What did he post this time."

Piracy is both vital and non-vital to capitalism. Pirating just redirects where the money you would spend goes to. Which in turn takes money away from a company that SHOULD have gotten the money. So, with people doing this at mass, it actually turns into a mass form of regulation. Which is what capitalism strives to get away from. So really, there is no true market driven capitalism, I don't really know what you were referring to.

I don't know what it was about Silmeria but I didn't like it. It felt too.. artificial for me. I only played the first one on the PSP and it was pretty decent.

Well, going partially against what I said before about not responding, the red 'new post' icon pulled me into read. I never said you wanted a PS2 or you should get one, I said it was a bad idea if you live in the US and to only own a PS2 that isn't even US coded, read the post before you reply.

I didn't really judge you as a person. You said you pirated games, I used that and chose my stance on it. I really didn't have any thoughts about you as a human being other than you liked to pirate games and not shell out the money to get a real copy the way Atlus intended you to get it, import or not. But whatever dude, I can't stop you from pirating, go pirate all the stuff you want.

Plus, it's a gamefaqs forum. 99.9% of the things posted there is crap.

No, you just don't want to take risks when buying games, which could possibly speak more about you, but who knows?. Then you cover it up by pirating and trying to justify pirating when confronted about it. If you didn't buy a US region PS2, then I don't really know what to say. That was just a bad idea, if you actually live in the US. You have a real skewed way of looking at things. Regardless, import the game or whatever, I just don't really care anymore and won't really respond to the thread. This will just turn into another useless argument where someone doesn't realize they're wrong.

Your S-links don't transfer over when you start a new game. But, if you fused a high end persona from mastering that S-link, you can get them from the compendium.

Just because I'm against piracy of games, doesn't mean I blow Atlus' localization team's dick.

I highly doubt that pirating a game can't be harmful in anyway. If you can't afford it, or don't want to give 50$ for it, then you should wait till you have enough cash or you shouldn't be playing it in the first place. There is no ethical reason for pirating, there is no mutualism going on. You are basically stealing the developing team's life by pirating it. They took their time to make this game, so pay for it god damn it. It's not the fact of 'if P3 blows' it's that once you've played the emulation, chances are you're not going to buy it. Every time I've bought a game I've liked it. It could be that I was lucky, or that I actually read about the concept of the game from the main site. Even if I didn't like it, there's always a 7 day return policy for opened items.

Man, justifing piracy. That's a real good one.

It'd most likely be one of the special personae, like Thanatos or Messiah. If I'm not wrong, the rest I've seen in other SMT games. Though they are very unique, I've grown accustomed to to their looks and want to see something different. So, the most intriguing design for me would have to be Thanatos, Lucifer or Satan. I know the last two come up in Nocturne, but I haven't really seen them. My second run through of Nocturne I will, though.

Funny how you talk about piracy of this game casually, yet turn around and show some form of sympathy for Europeans when they have to pay extra. Why don't they all just pirate it? Problem solved.

--AtlusUSA obviously doesn't care about the completeness of the game. If they knew about Festival etc, it should've been included as a second disc, if they didn't want to do another release.

There's so much content that even with another Aegis branch, which we don't really need because she plays an extremely pivotal role in the story and we get multiple facets of her personality and major development, it wouldn't really matter. I for one am satisfied with the fact that I played the game for 110 hours on my first play through, got 91% done on the compendium and only maxed out a few S-links. That alone justifies at least 2 more playthroughs to max out other S-links to see how everything else plays out. After that, another S-link and a couple of quirps here and there won't mean much.

Is it that people cannot be satisifed until they know they have everything in the game? Or is it just wanting for the sake of wanting something when you already have enough? I know that P3 is enough for me already, and am in no rush to get FES.

Well, if the skill isn't kept in check, go in with an egg and do it twice. There you go, she's dead.

I honestly don't see why people aren't satisfied with 100+ hours of gameplay in the first place. Plus, where have you heard these rumours? If it isn't from a credible place, then I don't really care. I don't see any such info on Koei's site, unless I'm went over something.

Yeah, I can see Atlus getting bigger, but only in the RPG scene. Maybe like one of those other series that are relatively well known, like the Tales series. Or some other game name that I'm forgetting that has a small community that is bigger than normal niche games.
