But world tour and in game content are not what he was referring to at all. Gaming culture. MMO Culture. That is what he is saying. They are vastly different between Korea and North America.
And honestly, how could you fix that? What changes could GMS receive? I don't think that's the problem with the game but that's why we all have opinions. [MENTION=1747]Grey[/MENTION]; good point, nexon KR does care about the pc bangs and quite a lot, I think there could be alternative content/mechanism replacing that though although not physical one.
But I will admit, PC bang is a different experience, it does reward you for various things, and that's what I meant as alternative content, they could've been given based on a different factor I guess.
This is a very difficult topic honestly, how can you take care of this. I don't think that this is fundamentally flawed however, I really see no alternatives or catering to be exact.
I don't think these mechanisms impair the gameplay/flow/whatever though, nor make the versions incomparable.
And with that being said, I don't believe that saying both versions are incomparable, when you lack experience with one of them is very possible, I've played KMS for a longer time than GMS but by no means I don't know how GMS' community is.
