This is another rehash. The opening of this game is JP’s favorite. 😆 I also love how in this game it’s all ages but there’s still a sex scene!! That’s how all otome games should be! Just for the record the DX pack (and this OP movie) comes also with Kare to Kare White Labyrinth which I will post in a separate post from this one (possibly tomorrow). This game is specifically to the high school arc and the wedding bonus arc. Continue reading “Otome Game Review: Kare to Kare no Hazama De”
Pangya US Update: Let the grind begin!

Wow so I guess the 3 week wait gave us a massive update. Haha lol everytime I bitch about Ntreev they give me an awesome update, coincidence? 😆 More update info after the cut.
Edit2: Due to popular demand (and my harassment) they added a 3rd server Titan Boo (about time). But then when I was playing a 6 hole game with friends, they said 5 min before shutting the server down that titan boo will be shut down for a bug fix. Like geez could you tell us this maybe 30 min in advance not 5??! WE used time boosters and made it with like 60 seconds to spare =_=; No consideration. Also the alpha is still messed up. Oh well I only bought Kooh’s outfit since there’s no problems with it, and it’s probably the only one I’ll buy.
Get your free aisp@ce poster!

If you login to Aisp@ce for the next couple days, you can get a free Really? Really! (Some stupid Shuffle spinoff) poster if you go to the Shuffle Island school. Come to the fountain there’s a girl there with pink hair and a Shuffle uniform who will give you the poster if you talk to her. My room is starting to get pretty filled up with posters, I guess I’ve been on Aisp@ce for a pretty long time. A few months ago I recall logging on and talking with random Japanese who were surprised that I had been playing for that long (if you whois someone you can see how many days they have been on aisp@ce since they first logged in.) Too bad they don’t know that I hardly ever log on unless there’s an event like this. ^^;
Brief Pangya Japan update

So if Arin as Luka wasn’t enough, this week Japan is bringing back Miku, Rin & Len outfits for sale once more for those who missed them. This way you can collect them all. Maybe it’s a good thing I don’t play on JP anymore or I’d probably be completely broke ^^;. Actually I haven’t really been playing Pangya recently because of the following reasons:
- Papel shop rates are still low with nothing in sight of them being changed or any bugs being fixed.
- We’re still in beta without any updates since May 22nd
- Apparently Rookie server has turned into Ronaldo-aff land, but don’t quote me because I can’t get in there anyway.
- Hackers are still at large, albeit they are sneakier now so they fall under the radar 90% of the time now
- Personal shops are still disabled with no ETA on when they will come back (if ever at this rate)
- Apparently people with stolen accounts still have not gotten them back.
So since Ntreev hasn’t done shit in almost 3 weeks (I doubt there will be an update this week either) I’ve just been playing Otome games. I’ve got one I’m playing and 4 on the waiting list so that will keep my mind off Pangya for a few weeks. (-ω-。)
Prius Online hates foreigners =D

Looks like the comment someone made on my post a couple days ago was not a lie. Gameon is indeed against foreign players. It appears that multiple English speakers who formed an English speaking guild all got banned. While there is currently no non-JP IP block (like Pangya), I saw their terms of service and found this:
(禁止事項)
26.本サービスに対して日本国外からの接続行為、及び日本国外からの接続であると疑われる行為。
27.本サービスに対して日本国外からのID取得行為、及び日本国外からのID取得であると疑われる行為。
So basically if you register an ID outside Japan and play this game outside Japan, you are breaking their TOS. It’s only a matter of time before GameOn does what Gamepot did with Pangya and just completely ban foreigners so we’re forced to play on a VPN. Of course playing this game without a VPN is laggy enough, but with a VPN it will be even more unplayable. I’ve been lagged to shit to the point of getting completely kicked off the server, and JP kept getting lag-killed. I have a funny feeling that they must have some kind of IP throttle in place so that JP IPs get top bandwidth while any other IPs get crap.
Because I never spoke in English publicly and never joined any English speaking guilds, (as well as having a JP nickname) I was not banned. However the game has become so laggy and unplayable that after all this new information, this is a good time for me to quit playing. While this game was enjoyable, and I do not regret trying it out, all good things have to come to an end.
Not sure what I’ll be doing now, Pangya? 😆
