The fact there was such a community backlash in the first place is incredibly annoying, given Atlus have gone out of their way to give practically no reason you should import it in the first place. Paying for the price the regular price inflation has set for games isn't that ludicrous, and there's STILL local or online deals for every region some way or another if that hurts so bad.
Every version has English and Japanese voice acting and text, far as I know the online ISN'T region locked so you can play globally, all releases are within a very short time of one another (less than 2 weeks in the case of JP/US), and there is no exclusive content specific to any region.
