Every day I play west it's almost an 100% chance of getting a pm just saying 'Oi', and it's always the Brazilian players lol

^This, I don't think there has been big increase of them coming to play, they've already been around, ever since Ol' released alot of them have been there(idk if that's coming from classic and vise versa)

I remember a thread on if graal made servers from set places not sure how many was playing at that time but I don't see that happening-although it'd make better imo. Middle eastern are worst for delay/lag, brazilians arn't that bad.

The Brazillian problem? I guess summer is around the corner and it's time to wax again :o

Haha wow I'm glad I'm not the only one who's noticed the influx of teh Brazilians. Yes, balamb island is overflowing with them, as well as under the bridge, parts of Graal memorial, and even recently, all over the front of Taylor Richards.

Since I am able to speak Spanish, I've actually made friends with some of them and a lot of them are actually pretty funny and interesting.
That being said, I've discovered some things about them, and most other Latino players, that I found interesting.
First, I feel this game to them may be like a new fad. It's just a "cool" game to them where they can chat with friends, customize their character, etc, basically just like us. It's part of graals overall magic where anyone can be whatever they want.
Another thing is, a lot of them have no clue how to even play the game at times! For example, I've met long time Latino players who have never even completed the main quests simply because they can't read English LOL. So what this tells me is that many Brazilians and latinos sort of just wander through and play whatever tidbits they can.

I feel eventually they'll just move on to something else. Why play a game that you can barely even read?

I dont mind that theyre here. Theyre people too. But its just so many of them in a concentrated area that the area they infest becomes foreign. That becomes the Brazilian ghetto of Graal. The problem is that this Brazilian ghetto also happens to be where every single new player starts the game

Not gonna lie or twist it, the Brazilians and Filipinos flocking to this game with high speed 5mb/s internet is insane.

Most of them aren't even doing anything, they just stand there with "codeshop lmao".

Are they allowed to embed it though? I can't seem to find any rules on it.

exactly, they arent participating in anything. only a select few spar. only a select few tower. the rest idle and try to get rich from codeshops.

why are they so persistent about a game they cant even read

Really is annoying when every time I log on, the only people at Mod are 100% either Brazilian or Filipino. They all suck, but they all lag like ****.

I seriously don't see the problem, they are allowed to be there just like anyone else.

I don't think the problem with newbies trying graal is the foreigners :\

Its the whole tutorial itself its very boring and plain. A lot of my friends irl have tried graal but they have no idea what to do. I have to physically be there just to explain how to register, how to get the flipper, how to get gralats and literally everything else.

The problem is that people try graal for 30 minutes wondering around not knowing what to do because the tutorial is very lacking :\

So fair. I lost access to my old account and downloaded the game recently to have a look, and the tutorial is genuinely pretty useless. There's no lead in to what you can actually do in the game either - I'm pretty sure the only reason people start seeking out the flippers and the like is from seeing other players use them and asking how.

i see your point, even though i am from brazil, but these solutions are not very good
i know most of you guys think we are a pain in the ass, and i understand it cuz.. i wouldn't like if a lot of players start to talk in a language that i dont understand..
the solution would be speak in english, but you hardly see one that does speak english, most of them are child (just like most of graalians) and doesn't speak another language
but do not generalize it.. i know a lot of very nice and cool foreign players from philipina, or japan, or arabs, europe, etc.. and this is something very very very very cool about graal, meet new cultures and get to know ppl all around the world
