They have stakes (often majority) in many companies you probably heard of or whose products you even like - GGG (80%), Epic Games (40%), Riot Games (100%), Ubisoft (5%), Activision-Blizzard (5%), Supercell (84.3%), Paradox Interactive (5%), Sharkmob (100%) and many many others and not jus limited to video games.

[@SailorMusicCat]

@ActualCatfish As Doomsday said the video very neatly shows that Lemon isn't for sale. That even with money being paid to him, he's not gonna sugar coat it if your video game is bad. Which tbh it wouldn't surprise me if he's turned away sponsorships who went "no you can't do that" and tried to insist pros or good points HAD to outweight the cons or bad points of the game. Because companies DO try to do that. After all it's one of the reasons sponsorships are required to be disclosed. So we're informed of any potential bias the sponsored may have. But we see here that Lemon has no bias. He tells us straight up. "This video game has a ton of issues, the bad outweighs the good, and it might work as a beginner MMO if they fix those issues." which tbh lbr we all know they aren't. And the good, as Doomsday also mentioned, aren't uh...great good points. Definitely not enough to really carry a game.

[@NoFaceNoName-j6b]

I was curious about that too, but when I actually got to the “bad” part - the criticism was mostly directed at the voice acting, and translations from Chinese to English not being 100% correct… I don’t know about you guys but personally I don’t care about the voices of NPC’s or if they call me character a “he” when it’s a “she” To me, the important part is that the game is fluid, PvP is balanced and PvE is entertaining. Which it is. And the fact that the game advises you during raids or dungeons when to dodge or to nuke adds etc, is great? I personally cant think of anything more frustrating than a raid wipe because of that 1 out of all 10 people in your group is a dummy. Repeated failures and a team disbanding because you rather have them “reading up on the boss prior to the fight” or “downloading a separate add on (like Deadly Boss modes or whatsitsname) like you had in World of Warcraft… So if you actually take the time to play through the video you’ll probably agree that most of his concerns will likely not be any of your own.. I’m actually starting to think that these negative reviews are mainly happening because it’s “trendy” to hate on the newly released MMORPG, rather than legitimate concerns. Like P2W, OP classes, bad game design, graphics or player community game development which actually affects the gameplay experience… I’ve played it for a few days now, haven’t paid a penny and to me it’s a great game. Generally topping the dps charts and doing well in both BGs & Arena. 10/10 would recommend, and 100% agree that there are some improvements which could make the game better, but that’s far from saying it’s not already good. Give it a go, or don’t, up to you of course but honestly best you can do is make your own opinion based of your own experiences

[@prognarrin4307]

Great vid Lemon! I have to say though, that the game including warnings of raidboss skills/attacks/description of mechanics is the same thing as it including the dps and threat meters when you are a healer. (as in most people would just use addons/read the wiki anyways instead of experimenting and learning [it would be great if using these systems were optional though]) On a conceptual level I understand why they did this. If you think of World of Warcraft and its addons and the way people use them then it is evident this game clearly took inspiration, and decided to integrate a lot of the functions that people add to wow with addons. I have not seen people play wow, and do serious raids without some sorts of warning addons, mechanic alerts, consulting strategy guides beforehand etc etc. I think in our pursuit of optimization in mmos we have long since abandoned the player discovery aspect of most content as only a small percentage of very committed players get to feel the joy of discovery, the rest of the playerbase expects everyone to read the guides of these committed players. I am not saying that it is a good or a bad thing that this game includes systems like this. I just wanted to say that conceptually it is appropriate for the game to integrate all of these core/basic supplementary addon systems if it decided to integrate any of them. The other points I made lead down rabbitholes of thoughts that would make my comment even longer. Thanks to everyone who read this far and have a nice day!

I'll be honest, the biggest "WTF" Red flag for me was that the open world enemies were completely worthless outside of quests lol. The reason I fell in love with my first MMO (FFXI) was because the open world was /everything/. Enemies were scary, the Notorious Monsters you could find, exploration was rewarding if not at least satisfying and rewarding. An MMO with a complete lack of discovery just seems like a horrid idea. No gear/weapon skin changing outside of cash shop also seems horrid, cosmetics is the real endgame of most MMOs and I guess they knew that which is why its all behind a pay wall, but sh*t even "Cosmetics: The Game" MMOs tend to always have visible changes tied to their armors and weapons, with premium cosmetics just being a flare above the rest. All in all this game looks... Tencent, and 'mobile'.

[@ericb3157]

something you said about the skill choices reminded me of an old MMO called "Rift", by Trion Software. their main selling point was the ability to choose 3 sub-classes, called "souls", then mix and match them to make unique characters. BUT, all skills have power levels based on HOW MANY SKILL POINTS YOU HAVE IN THE SAME SOUL! so, the ONLY effective way to set up ANY character is to max out ONE soul, leaving you with just enough points to add, AT MOST, 3 low-level skills from other souls. my personal favorite was the "Chloromancer", a mage that can also cast healing spells.

[@devastating6143]

Interesting review and I agree with most of it. A few points I’d add: The raids, dungeons etc with the voice saying what to do, I believe, is to avoid people getting third party add ons that do the same thing. For people who don’t want it I think they should add the option to turn it off. I should note that the voice over does not spell out each mechanic and people 100% can and do die on harder raids if they don’t know what to do. The clothing always looking the same was accurate and clearly this is yo encourage the purchase of outfits however there are done free outfits that can be gained and if the choice to pay for clothing that gives no advantage by way of stats allows a game to be mostly free to play… its a trade off I can accept. The energy system while crafting is a huge problem which is once again here to encourage spending unfortunately this one has an effect on your power as crafting is how most get gold which is what will be used to buy upgrades such as gems. There are also the upgrades that you can craft which are hampered by the energy system. People can by the special currency and sell it for gold and then buy everything they need which gives a bonus as well. The bonuses won’t help in PvP but do help when doing dungeons. If you want to be invited into the best challenge raids you’d better have the best everything,(most updated gear, runes, gems etc). A huge issue will be the longevity of the game… new players will get accelerated xp to catch up in level but will be way behind in crafting, gear etc. The issue is that while they will have the necessary level to do the latest raids and dungeons, they will lack the power to do so and unless you’d like to fail over and over, most will kick them from a team they’re putting together to take on the dungeon/raid. They will need to figure out a more effective method for new players to catch up. I played for awhile and was always the top dps on every team I joined but ultimately quit because the content couldn’t keep up and there was nothing for me to look forward to. They need to add something more that builds excitement and anticipation for the future and gives players a reason to keep playing… gaining a few stats isn’t good enough.

Congrats on the money Lemon! Thankfully your content is always good even if its on a game like this. I'll never complain about more Backlogs videos.

[@TruMikuel]

wait, no fingers? Secret lemon lore revealed or something I missed? Or did I fall right into "mate, you took joke too seriously"?

I was asking myself the same question. Sort of a newcomer to the channel so I couldn't tell you

I'm 90% it's the last thing. It's a joke about the style of his little characters having Rayman blob hands, probably.

[@heissenbadger]

Yeah I checked this out literally yesterday, and the only good thing I could come up with was that it pushes you to do dungeons basically from the get go, that's basically just it. Just made me want to play WoW

[@thyrussendria8198]

Yeah... I'll stay with FFXIV instead and get my face kicked in by the mobs in Aurum Vale or Darkhold instead.

~sobs in the tank not eating the fruit when I tell him to in Aurum Vale~ You asked! You asked how many stacks I wanted everyone to eat at please!!! Fun times in Aurum Vale....not even always as healer...

The only reason why I don't play XIV is because I get an error midway the install.

[@sampfrost]

lack of for english audio QA and general giving a semblance of a care for localisation seems to be a trend for chinese games - at least based on wuthering waves and hoyoverse - both could probably have done with some name changes and better direction for the voice actors from what i’ve seen granted it’s for a foreign audience but japanese game companies manage it and they’re using a related enough language and are in the same geographic region so sod knows if that’s an alright excuse

Been playing for a couple of days now and I can honestly say that this review is 100% accurate. I would also add that talents' descriptions can be confusing at times and I think that the action bar shouldnt be filled with all the talents during atleast the first few levels.

Get the bread to keep doing what you are doing with all your other content. Also, who knows, maybe you get an actual diamond in the rough with these looks every now and then.

it's still being made he has been working on it whenever he gets the chance, which is difficult given that he works a full-time job and has literal terabytes of footage to sort through

[@SailorMusicCat]

do...do you realize how much multiple terabytes of footage is to go through? Much less edit? Alongside his day job and still making other content for his channel? Oh and spending free time with his loved ones so he doesn't burn out? And sleeping? There are only so many hours in the day and he needs to take care of himself and his family first. Which means not neglecting his other responsibilities like sponsor fulfillments, making sure bills can be paid, ensuring his relationship with Mrs Lemon is healthy, all the basic healthcare needs, etc.
