Re: (Nutaku) Milenium War Aigis (English Version)
It's an unfortunately common viewpoint among many eastern developers that westerners aren't good enough to be viewed as much more than extra money for development on the real version of the game. It's been clear from the start that the JP Aigis devs are part of that group.
That being said, the Aigis devs didn't have anything to do with the blog post. IIRC from the stream a couple weeks ago when asked about the negotiations the Aigis guys said that it was a really shitty situation and the person that made the blog post sounded horrified that people assumed the gif was making fun of the Aigis community. So yeah, it's pretty unprofessional but people are reading way more into it than they should.
Though, with the way the devs have made it clear they aren't going to step anything up after taking the deal off the table, I wouldn't give them money anyway.
My personal opinion is that the Dev's enjoy the sense of superiority they get from having the DMM version of the game being superior to the Nutaku version. This opinion is reinforced by the GIF they decided to taunt us with in their 'lolnope' post.
As I told them in a help ticket, I hope that whoever decided to post that enjoyed themselves, as they are paying hundreds of dollars per month for that enjoyment in lost revenue.
