Yiiiikes ok, so the different package name was clearly done on purpose. There's some weird shit they're doing with the US version where we're not getting a free character that literally every other server will get, and we have to work for it instead on some future event
The worst thing is, JP version has an English option lmfao. So... yeah... I mean this was clearly done on purpose, and they're just lying out their ass. A package name can't be changed out of what technical reason lmfao? The only reason I can think of is that they accidentally published an earlier version on the US store under a different package name, and there was some advertisement issue. Even then, a different package name doesn't somehow interfere with... anything lol. The package name in an Android app has nearly 0 effect on the actual coding of the game. It's literally what dictates under which name the game is saved in the folder and just about nothing else. It might also affect what directory certain assets are saved under? But why would that affect handing out rewards and shit lmao. That shit should be entirely done on the backend anyways.
They're just lying lol, and hiding it under some bullshit jargon that has nothing to do with anything. What they actually mean is that US is just getting a different version, and they're planning on nickel and diming people.
Yeah, and being a different version, theres no telling what other crap they might pull. Censorship? Skipped content completely? Let's not also forget how some games fold only certain versions in certain areas, but of course only after they duped people into spending on the already condemned servers. (Literally can't even be arsed to give a freebie, they want you to toil or whale for it instead? That's not a red flag at all, nosiree.) ---
