Alicesoft, like essentially all similar companies don't sell there products outside of Japan and by extension don't do localizations. The whole Rapelay incident a while ago demonstrated why they don't perfectly, they don't want to sell to western customers because they know it will start a shitstorm with western governments and thus it's not worth the effort.

Not like it really matters because people outside Japan that want to play it will just wait for the inevitable fan translation and pirate it.

No no, /jp/ is saying that they are xenophobic because they are blocking non-Japanese IPs from their site.

[Anonymous No.]

they want to prevent all foreign traffic to their site to prevent another moralist starting another moral panic

Oh. I was expecting them to be pursuing action against fan translators and pirates, rather than that. No reason to speak of xenophobia on those terms, that's just common sense...

however, it's not an uncommon or original parody either. so it fails either way you look at it. it's incredibly lame as a normal title, and it's still lame as a parody.

Japanese nationalists burned down theaters showing "The Cove"(A shitty bleeding heart movie about dolphins)

Lionsgate doesn't block Japanese IPs

But that doesn't matter now that you changed your stance. Okay media then?

How bout back during the madcow bullshit where the japanese(also corean, but no one cares) media raised such a stir that they banned all imports of beef from the USA, nevermind that the outbreak happened in one state and that they kept importing European beef when Europe had an even more deadly outbreak.

What did the Omaha Packing Industry do? Invite Japanese inspectors over for years and push continuously for the ban to be dropped.

because of this line, all i'm left with is an image of what it might look like if alicesoft tried to do the same thing with rapelay.

actually, i can't even begin to imagine what that would entail.

>Lionsgate doesn't block Japanese IPs
Maybe because that doesn't fucking prevent them from burning any more theathers down. Japanese porn game sites blocking foreign IPs do, however, prevent in a way or another the attempts of western media trying to raise a stir about something so stupid.

Judging from your way of trying connect things that don't even vaguely resemble this incident, you sure don't even seem to know the relative issues concerning this whole rapelay thing. How about getting a clue before spouting random shit?

Oh wow, is protectionism a new concept for you or something? Every country does this to protect their local market when/if they find a loophole. Knowing Japan's and USA's economical competition, that's not weird at all.

They wouldn't need to, since Rance has such an aversion to loli, they're not even grey-area stuff and are 100 percent point-to-common-rape-porn-in-defense legal.

The "theory" behind the bullshit is that if they ban foreigners, this kind of stuff won't make it stateside, and possible moral guardians won't see it, and won't possibly make a stink, and won't possibly come back to them. Nevermind that it will come stateside if they want it to or not and what they should be doing instead is defending themselves in their own country(which they run, not the american association of women).

So basically they're either xenophobic or retarded, I think /jp/ is being kind by assuming the former

[Anonymous No.]

The difference is that the Japanese keep their bullshit in their own country instead of telling others what to do.

Oh really? How so?

Does blocking non-japanese IPs magically make it impossible for such content to leave?
Well no because it's legal to import that.

Will it make the media ignore it?
Well no, because it was never about the companies in the first place, it was about the distributors.

Will it stop legislation in Japan?
Well no, because metropolitan areas will(and are at the moment) always easily influenced.

I could, if I wanted to, recreate the rapelay scenario right now by importing a game and selling it on Amazon or Ebay. Feminists would fly into a rage. Amazon would pull the product. Same thing that happened last time. What has this block accomplished?

Defending one's right? Ha, Fuck that! That's for losers.

Real men just let activists outlaw their work while they ignore it and pretend nothing is happening.

Oh by the way, despite blocking foreigners, Tokyo's legislation is still moving along. Funny that.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7229047
Ever heard of "better say than sorry"? Also your reasonings are shit, because it's only the Japanese porn game companies that block the IPs, not normal Japanese sites. I wonder what the reason could be, I really do. But hey, at least you tried to justify your reasonings with the some random cow disease incident!

I already did. They're playing extrasafe because of all the hysteria surrounding rapelay incident, even though it doesn't fully prevent from accessing their websites, which is why I said "in a way or another". If you can't make even the slightest connection between these two things that only occurs with porn game companies that have rape and gross porn then I don't have anything further to say to you. It's just so mindnumbing arguing with someone whose arguments stem from "baww the nips are so racist they blocked our IPs!" even though it's clear as hell that it is only the Japanese porn game companies block IPs. And for a reason that should be clear as day.

[Anonymous No.]

[Anonymous No.]

Here, I'll try to provide one final analogy that's as close to the current situation as I can think of, since you're too dumb to realize why this is retarded.

Flashcarts are getting banned in Japan left and Right. Flashcarts are already questionably legal in the US, the more countries ban them, the easier it is for the US to point to them as example.

Does cyclopsds/team cyclops ban japanese IPs? Nope. Hell, you can usually find advice about how to get around the bans if they're illegal where you live.

Why is this the case? Because they're legal in the US, people have fought to keep it that way, and other countries don't fucking matter.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7229112

Right on man
Let's just sit back and watch them become illegal.

The ball is already rolling. Banning foreigners achieves nothing. Hiding achieves nothing.

If they wanted to live on through obscurity, they should have practiced it from the get-go. It's too late now, and doing it in response is just closing the barn doors after all the cattle have left.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7229113
You're fucking retarded for even comparing some flashcarts to something of much more sensitive nature.

>Does cyclopsds/team cyclops ban japanese IPs?
Oh lol'd, why do you keep bringing up this stupid shit? Look, I can throw in some random bullshit as well: moot once banned Japanese IPs, and even moogy banned Japanese IPs from accessing tlwiki IIRC. Why do you keep bringing up some random events that don't even make sense. Actually I know why: "baww the nips are so racist they blocked our IPs!"

>Because they're legal in the US, people have fought to keep it that way, and other countries don't fucking matter.
No. That's because no one butts in US's issues. The US, however, butts in other countries issues, such as Japan.

I'm sorry, arguing with you seems to be pointless and a waste of time at this point.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7229120
So why do you even care about banning some foreign IPs when there are much more grave issues that surround this incident? I sure as hell don't, and your average weeaboo doesn't either.

>Let's just sit back and watch them become illegal.
Porn games will never become illegal in Japan. Your whole assumption relies on the fact that they didn't stand for their rights. Are you saying people and companies didn't stand against the tokyo bill for example?

[Anonymous No.]

Wasn't it the UK that got all buttpained about Rapelay, not the US?

Because Apologists like you stand up and defend this retarded shit either out of retardation of your own, or Japanophilia. I don't like retards browsing my favorite board, nor do I enjoy weeaboos.

>Porn games will never become illegal in Japan. Your whole assumption relies on the fact that they didn't stand for their rights. Are you saying people and companies didn't stand against the tokyo bill for example?

My assumption lies on that fact that this is retarded. I respond with sarcasm to the Japanese not standing up for themselves because I know that they can and have, numerous people stood up to the Tokyo bill, most not even involved in porn. So your first statement is 100% correct
>Porn games will never become illegal in Japan.
Therefore the main fact that my argument lies upon. Take this statement and realize. "Then why bother to ban foreigners?"

Suddenly you're struck with the realization that there are only two(Actually three, really) answers.

1: Xenophobia
2: Retardation
3*: They're lazy and don't want to deal with the controversy

*This is a pretty scummy reason of it's own, because it's very easily tied to 1

this makes my head hurt. what kind of garbage statement is that? regardless of the veracity of your overall point, your skills of expression, debate, and general construction of a logical argument and analysis/response to points are god awful, as is your opponent's.

I fucked outlined it for you. I'll go over it one more time.
Banning Foreigners accomplishes nothing.

I proved this factually incorrect.

I proved this wrong with the man's own words.

But I already said I don't give a shit about that. Why should I feel victimized if some shitty eroge company bans foreign IPs? Aren't you the weeaboo one since you're taking this at a personal level? A weeaboo that got mad because the Japanese they so much worship turned their backs at you? Or are you perhaps a Korean?

>1: Xenophobia
I really don't care whether or not the bans are due to xenophobia, but leaving websites open that features images of rape is really retarded. Banning IPs is the fastest and easiest way to prevent from people viewing said images, and it's understandable why they did it instead of coping with foreigners. You'd have to be pretty foolish for thinking otherwise.

[Anonymous No.]

yeah, nothing to see here.

Just for the record, Xenophobia can lead to serious problems than just banning IPs.

You're not supposed to feel victimized, you're supposed to stand up and realize "Oh well that's dumb." and not post passive aggressive shit in response to people pointing out how stupid it is.

Also no, the fastest way to make sure no one sees the images would be to take everything down. I'll leave it at that since you seem to be realizing my point at last.
