The subversion of all the male leaders being evil or cowards, or turning all the good male figures like Merlin, and such into evil, while making classically pure evil characters like Morgaine into anti heroes who have no accountability for their personal evils. Every "good" leader is female. It's garbage. With all the women running things, it's no wonder the world fell to shit. It just feels like me as a man am just doing the things all these women can't.

Bless unleashed in its state of play right now is good if not great over all for a free to play game. the reason why it failed so hard mostly was bless online it was a bugy pay to win mess and people just could not forgive the IP for it mostly and to add insult to injury bless unleashed was just bless on the unreal engine 4 there was very little changes from bless to bless unleashed same game just fixed all the issues mostly and that made the pc gamers very unhappy so much so they did not even give bless unleashed a fair chance and left at the first sign of trouble with the cash shop witch was the pets and bags that are more or less pay to win in most peoples eyes even though it was not game breaking levels of pay to win. the bad blood was very strong because the way they did the consumer it would have been fine if they did a rework of the story/the combat/the endgame/ but instead of that we just got more or less the same game with bug fixes everyone on pc was very irritated and seeing how that is most of the market the game failed even though if bless unleashed launched like it is today it would have held up way better than what it has done for its self. I don't think it would be doing very well but at least never winter level of success with a chance to have an elder scrolls online level of success if they reworked there gear system with no upgrade system and reworked there storyline to make it more engaging without buggy cutscenes. is it worth playing today. yes the combat is good the story is workable the quests are fun the gameplay over all is not bad at all. its hard to compare it to anything because there are bots in zones to help with group quests and open world raids so the game feels alive even though its half not alive. I have never seen a game go so far out of its way to make its content fun without changing its content the short of that is it was the right call to make I think because the last time I played it I had a blast. I'm a game hopper if its a mmorpg so that is high Praise

It's so interesting cuz I remember them being proud that there weren't anything like a quest board. But like a lot of old school mmo designs, they realize that these things were introduced for a reason, and that some of it was left behind for a reason. No one remembers waiting a half hour to an hour just to get into a dungeon. Or waiting forever looking for a healer for your raid. There was and is a lot of stuff in old school mmo's that wasnt fun, and there was a lot of stuff that has been lost in the ether. For instance, you could actually solo play a lot of old school mmo's as that was my preferred play style and I achieved success from Everquest to Mortal Online 2. Hell I am playing Project Gorgon and one of the reasons I am leaving is cuz they refuse to change up their formula even though it chases off most players, me included. It's a fun formula but basks in the pride that you have to find out how to do every little thing yourself. Im a level 40 and don't even know how to get a mount in the beginner zone. Everything boils down to, "google it." Or, "just ask another player." As you can imagine that gets rather old quickly. I was looking at this game to shift over to but it seems it is also suffering from the, "old mmo blues." Seriously why does every new, "old school mmo experience' have to adopt all the bad stuff along with the good stuff?

To remove the tool tip quicker, you can press tab and right click, but yes it is frustrating. The centering of the map really bothered me as well on Tutorial Island, but if I recall, it is better on the mainland. My biggest issues are the POWER of bleed from all animals (wolves, boars and bears) simply due to the stacking - up to 3 levels. 3rd person combat is jenky at best right now. The other big issues I have is the grouping and quests. When doing "kill quests" in a group, only the person that gets the final killing blow gets credit, even if you are in a group. I understand your frustrations, but I am still looking at this as an Early Access game that the developers have been fixing and addressing various issues over the past few months. There is still a lot to be resolved for population to be strong enough to maintain a good PvP challenge for sieges.

I skipped to various sections of your video to hear you saying 'fucking' in nearly every sentence. Your review takes place on Rivulet Island (Starter Island) and you've played 23 hours of RoG according to your Steam account. [You made this YT video public in the steam discussions for RoG]. First of all, Starter Island is a mistake. Players should be starting on the mainland, and the Island should become an Event-Zone. Get your character off the Starter Island. You can do this from a fresh character in less than 8 hours if you use the correct weapons/dusts against the correct monsters. The game is Early Access and yes, does have a lot of missing content as far as character development, but you haven't even gotten to that point yet in your review because you haven't gotten to that point yet in-game. Do yourself a favor, re-create your video to include 99% less angry swearing but only after you're put 50 hours into the game and are on the mainland.

There are quite a few quests in the city, you just cant all get them at lower lvls. The academy has a lot of lore and is where you can do emberstone upgrades. Class trainers also there to start your specific class quests at lvl 6. There is a monolith in the city also near the academy that the server works to together to unlock a portal to city and cheaper travel rates. Also vendors for foods, teas, recipes, dyes, potions, arrows, etc. Also two banks that you can use a shared box with your alts. At 20 the npcs provide crafting quests also. Ratman also in city to help with bag runs (but he can be quite expensive). Rangers guild there has nice long quest also. There are several quest lines that bring you back to the city, The Kings quest for example specifically provides different style of weapons depending on who you side with.

Thanks for the video. The armor weight system adds a sense of progression. You will eventually be able to wear more pieces as you get higher up. The weapon cooldown when switching is logical as you would want some penalty when switching between a bow and sword for example. You certainly have to network in the game. Build your friends list, join a guild, find people who play similar times you do. There is tons of content in the game and they have made improvements to the combat quite a but over the last year, Faster execution timers, cheaper alchemy costs, added vfx to the combat.

@@chrismj4676 there are people telling me they cant wear full armor sets even at level 24. System is, truly, pointless. I'd be 100% sure that community would be against that system if devs ever actually did a poll. In a game where it can take you a YEAR to get to lvl cap, locking something behind a level is pointless. Levels should be adding some stats and the only thing locked behind levels should be dungeons and quests. Ofc gear too... but just level based equiping. Seems like idea behind making this game was just one big "penalty" ... Should be named Penalty Online. Why ppl enjoy defending obvious flaws is beyond me. Like if there is ONE thing that nobody can defend is logoc behind every weapon having SAME EVERYTHING. Same skills, same global cd, same individual cd, same icons... Like, who am I even dealing with here lol... Ppl that can stand behind these systems deserve to play Penalty Online. They should start thinking on how to actually keep ppl stay with providing more meaning and purpose behind systems and less thinking about penalties.

@@gamingcave5882 Well there are 50 levels so I wouldnt expect everyone to be able to wear a full set at 25, thats part of the progression. It does not take a year to level cap, I have several max lvl characters and even know someone who maxed level's a character to 50 in 4 weeks aoe killing. The weapons have different stats and the skills do change based on weapon utilized. Nobody flips between 2 weapons constantly so if your referring to that cooldown then thats a minor gripe and one i've never heard of someone complain about. Swap weapons sometime and watch the damage - IT CHANGES BASED ON THE WEAPON... Levels do add stats, from hitpoints to armor weight and unlocking and improving your skills. The devs did make changes to armor sets to allow more folks to use them but thats not till later on. There is a ton of content in the game. Certainly work on your emberstone, get alchemy... I'm sorry you are struggling with the game, its difficult. The Ibax guild is very helpful as is the community as a whole. If the game were easy and not challenging then you dont get a sense of reward. Lets talk about how the devs have REMOVED penalties based on community feedback. They added fast travel roads, a magic system, a mail system and reduced mailing costs, instant execution skills, solo loops, easier bag recovery, increased xp rates, more travel options, made pulling multiple mobs easier with the investigation system, made nightime less dark, decreased the cost of alchemy (magic), added portals inside dungeons for easier escape, and introduced a leveling system to allow lower lvl players to group with higher level players.. These were all very much community driven enhancements to REDUCE the punishment to the player.
