A long video but worth it.
The boss fight at the end is epic.

The boss fight at the end is epic.
I’ve watched a few streams of the game, and from what I’ve seen it looks really good. The voice acting, even if I can’t understand it, sounds good. The graphics are real nice and pleasing to look at, and I love how the combat looks.
Just not sure if I want to sink time and money into the game. Maybe when it’s out in the west.
I really hate those oversized weapons, looks just way too ridiculous.
That alone might make me not play the game, regardless of anything else (no fan of Multiplayer-anything, but I theoretically can overlook that if the game itself is good enough, but it is a hurdle it has to clear that SP does not). Might be an extreme reaction, but I just cannot stand that.
I feel exactly the same.
I get a headache just looking at streams of the game. Too fast, to flashy, to loud. Ugh. And get of my lawn, damnit!
Plus I am so done with running dungeons in MP and dealing with idiots.
These days I can only tolerate one idiot, which is me. ^^
looks like the mmo part is predominant over the arpg part
From what I’ve seen it’s mostly only the two melee classes that have those stupid weapons, the two handed sword guy and the two handed hammer guy, the rest of the classes seem to have normal looking weapons.
I’m pretty hyped about this game but idk if it will come to the west any time soon…I like the gameplay from what I’ve seen, it reminds me a lot of Marvel Heroes raids. I’m not huge into MMOs but MH was my guilty pleasure.
Honestly, I’m skeptical about all the hype surrounding this game. Most of the praise this game receives consists on comments like “Blizzard should learn from this game”, “This is what Diablo 3 should have been” “le diablo killer lol” which makes people’s acclaim sounds rather dishonest. I mean, it feels like you are just praising the game out of spite for Blizzard because of the whole Diablo: Immortal fiasco. You are just using it to shit on them. And this extents to other games like PoE, GD, Wolcen, Last Epoch, etc. It’s like the gaming equivalent of dating other people to make your ex jealous. It already happened when D3 was released. People started praising Torchlight 2 and calling it the true Diablo successor, and it turned out to be just a slightly above-average arpg. I wish that Diablo fans would just shut the hell up about Blizzard when trying other arpg. It feels disrespectful, like dating someone and constantly telling him/her “Omg, you are so awesome and cool and cute. You areway better than my good for nothing ex who totally sucks and I wouldn’t never date again”.
Not saying that the game can’t turn out to be excellent, but knowing how hype culture work, I wouldn’t bet my 2 cents on it.
just looked up a video showing all classes and Blaster has oversize guns, Destroyer has oversized hammers, Bard plays an instrument, regular size, Summoner had no item at all, same for Battle Master and Arkanas, Devil Hunter rifle is just a little too large (not too ridiculous), Berserker has ridiculous size swords, Warlord too has a ridiculous sized weapon, with Infector not having a weapon at all it seemed.
These are not the classes from the Wiki, so it probably was an older video. Trying to merge the two, all Warrior subclasses have ridiculous weapons, all Mage subclasses seem fine (mostly no weapons, have not seen a staff yet), Fighter has too large weapons again, going by its Battle Master subclass (and the example set by the Warriors), Gunner is inconsistent with one subclass with ridiculously oversized and one with slightly too large weapons, with the last two classes unclear (haven’t seen any of them yet).
So most have oversized weapons, but some might be only slightly too large and others do not use weapons at all. Turns out to be an odd mix Still, most of the ones I saw were oversized, which might become maybe about half once I have seen the other classes.
Not sure that makes a difference to me though, as this being MP means I will constantly run into those guys even if I do not play one. If one boss were this ridiculous it would not matter, but players will be everywhere so I constantly see these ridiculous things…
EDIT: just saw the start of the 1h review video posted above and that the females are basically running around in negligees while the males are in full armor (see ‘char selection screen’) also does not help. I am not a prude, women can dress however they want and if they like showing some skin, I certainly won’t complain. In a game I have the same issue with that as I have with oversized weapons however. It is just way too over the top ridiculous to not grate on me. Breaks any sense of immersion. Well, that is Asia for you I guess… fortunately not as noticeable in game from the first few min into the video
With oversized weapons it sounds perfectly normal for a JRPG then, not sure what else you were expecting from any Asian company as it’s the std that almost all their games have… oversized weapons that would be impossible to use, men in full armour with women in the skimpiest of outfits and massive tits…oh don’t forget the girls with the cat ears as well.
agreed, that is why I wrote ‘Well, that is Asia for you I guess…’
I know that is a style they frequently use in jRPGs (and yes, as a consequence I do not play any of them…), was not aware it was mandatory even for a Korean game
Over-sized weps never really bothered me but I am a fan of FFVII so there’s that. And I am a male attracted to females so I’m not going to complain about women showing skin in game or real life no matter how ridiculous or realistic (or unrealistic) the reasons for doing so. There are plenty of women who do it because they enjoy it and the attention and that’s their right as well. Who am I to say they can’t
If femi-nazi’s want to live in a sanitized bubble then have at it but stop trying to force everyone else to.
If they ever make a western localization I may give it whirl regardless of the online-only. I kinda like its flashy graphic style. Wonder if it can be played mostly solo. Hm.

As I said, if a woman wants to dress like that, go right ahead, I have nothing against that whatsoever.
I would still advise against it depending on the occasion (formal dinner, cold winter, going to fight dragons…), but as long as temperature and occasion allow for it (e.g. hot summer day barbeque), go for it.
My problem is one of practicality, same as with the huge weapons you could not actually efficiently wield. The fact that this stuff is so impractical destroys my immersion.
If my wife and I were to go slaughter a bear in the local woods, me dressed in metal armor with a sword, I would not bring one that is taller, wider and heavier than I am and I’d certainly tell her to dress differently if she showed up like that - but she has too much common sense to do so anyway
I already found this guy’s flail too big to not notice
I am not impressed, to be honest. May be there are some interesting gameplay mechanics and you can make interesting builds, but my first impression: it’s very generic.
I might look into the game sometime only out of curiosity.
I’ve checked out a video showing the pros and cons and some of things I’ve seen aren’t really to my taste.
I think 2 years ago i saw a video of this game which looked awsome. Any new regarding a western release?
Looks good, probably wont get a western release
i’m not impressed either. sure it looks graphically good with responsive gameplay. but if its just like any other game from asia it’ll be a massive boring grind with little to show for it and lacking character build diversity.
The oversized weapons look too damn goofy and all the abilities look way too sparkly glowy for my tastes. I could look past those if it plays real well and is loaded with character customization and build diversity.
These f2p (mmoish rpg) games gradually build up massive micro transaction affecting gameplay
