A Korean Game in a US Market

Shaiya is your typical PvP Korean grind that is just another copy of Guild Wars.  In Korea, the dominant "side" of this game with the most players is the Alliance of Light (AoL).  In fact, it is so dominant that the game designers provided the opposing faction, Union of Fury (UoF) with many advantages in:

Terrain

Stats

Armor

PvP Guard Positioning

PvP Guard Logic (they dont attack unless being attacked from certain directions of the map)

Defensive Tower Effectiveness

In the US market, however, the dominant "side" is the  UoF in numbers.  The problem with Shaiya is that it is just a copy of a game with translations and now the dominant side also has the copied "weaker side" benefits from Korea. 

Result= Shaiya is a 1 sided game.
