Given the size difference between Korea and the US, one would have to wonder how Korea manages to compete, but they do. I really don't see it being a problem for Taiwan. There are games with a world wide population of 25000 + an additional 20000 in Taiwan.

Korea only holds up (and well) because Koreans Pwn our (America's) very soul at MMOs..

The only reason anyone "pwns" anyone is because they dedicate themselves to what they do. Can be said of anyone who sits down, wastes half of their life at a game. Welcome to the world. It's about to be bulldozed =)

Hooray! I am going to tell my friends in Taiwan! He's been playing D2 for so long... it's about darn time ti quit that game! His girlfriend is so pissed at him doing baal runs every night. lol (Yes, the girlfriend is horny)


Taiwanese people love online games. I am pretty sure they will be good after a while. There are a lot of skills in this game and need to be learned first.

I wouldn't doubt many of them have been living off of none to 2 hours of sleep a day since the release.

Japaneese are in tombs. My guild has ran into a few of them. Also faced them in GvG. That was a very close match.

I expect the japaneese to take over this game once they get the hang of it. Which doesn't take long. They usually dominate every team based games.

Well, according to this thread *screen proof*:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ighlight=Japan

Japan HAS in fact, been in tombs, and won. As for Taiwan, I've seen mainly Taiwan teams with 4 players and 4 henchmen, no structured build..YET. My only problem is I can't distinguish the text characters of Taiwanese,Japanese etc.Though Japan and Korea I know have a few distinct characters that can make it easier to know which nation it is..

Anyways, I welcome the time when those other "newb" nations, get their "Powa" up, and become a real force to be reckoned with >. With as many nations playing now, the fun in the word "challenge" will DEFFINATELY have a big rise =). I know I look foward to exchanging blows with a good group hehe.
