The ship has sailed. As people have mentioned, the base game is too far behind Japan now and people are more aware of that as an issue than ever. The people who really wanted to play (i.e. the people most likely to kick in money eventually) already got in on the Japanese release with the fan translation and will either stay there or have gotten their fill.



It's not incompetent because they were so incompetent that there's no way to walk that back, so might as well keep it under six feet of dirt.



It must have been a trivial amount of work to put it on the PS4, because if you're only aiming for Japanese audiences, I can't imagine how it's worth any labor expense. Click to expand...

As for the cross promotion stuff who cares it can be done without it since it's basically just costumes and room decorations I can live without a Miku costume and a 7-11 vendor in the main hub.



This whole thing has been such a big fuck you to western PS fans. As someone who has been invested in this franchise for years this whole thing is such a piss off. Click to expand...

Someone outlined all the Japanese stuff they've done and it's insane. Like after all that, I see why they didn't bring it over. They are probably making mad amounts of money from cross promotion alone, and barely any of it could trek overseas with the game. I wonder how many people here have kept up with the game as feverishly as they complain about it not coming over.To be fair, they could have came up with a plan to make this work overseas as well as Japan, but F2P games are a risky venture, and PS in general doesn't have the power it did years ago.There's quite a bit wrong with starting at the base because of all the immense updates the game has gotten. You are literally missing content. Do you really think people will overlook that just because the current version is alright? And while you might not care about having The Irregular at Magic High School cross promotional stuff, it takes a lot of effort to gut a game with a ton of anime/manga references and items. It's not just a few tiny things here and there. It's amassed a lot.
