that's just lame. That would be like releasing gears of war 1 in europe but not 2. Or releasing mgs 1 in europe but not 2. Or releasing metroid prime 1, but not 2 in europe. What's next? No tales of vesperia to europe?

If they say no , then it's no . bandai namco is inflexible when they decide stuff like that , despite people still hoping for tales of destiny 2 (the real one) and tales of rebirth in the us/eu on ps2 , psp , Live or PSN .

Remember also that Namco kinda blames people when their misguided and failed attempt of translating a game fails . Like the first one tanking in europe on gamecube , with them neglecting as usual promotion , and living it to nintendo , on a console with already a feeble success there ...
And then of course releasing a much more successful ps2 version of symphonia 1 in jap , and despite the obvious success , decide not to do a us/eu ps2 .

It's evil , it s*x but any rpg die hard fan should know that EU versions = more waiting or no chance to see some games . Unless it's a really rare occurrence of a game being only released in europe .

It's a constant back and forth dance wich will continue until jrpg devs start releasing the japanese versions with translations from the go .
Wich itself is unlikely to happens until jrpg sales dwindles so much they get forced to cater as much to the west than asia . It could happen in the near future , but it's far from it .
