"worth it" is always subjective. I am a "casual" player of BDO on console. I bought the game, I enjoy my time in the game, so it is totaly worth it for me because my time is not wasted. I don't throw much money on it, I don't chase gear or "success" in videogames, I simply have a good time. Doesn't mean I'm "bad", I just don't sweat it, I rather enjoy it. So yes, totaly wotth it for me. Others may have different opinions, who cares.... it's YOUR time, YOUR money, YOU decide what to do with it, others must not approve. Subjective ;-)

by the time you progress only with fishing, you would have couple grandchildren tbh:)

The content have been revamped. I started a new player and I have just finish Calpheon. They had Videos on the questline, and You could see Calpheon being in war, with many Boss inside. They changed many things in the game. It's still RNG but with a max try, and auto-succes on the next step. So you could predict the end of your Suffering from RNG. And if before, people complain about not having guide, now you have many informations on any object you can get on the game, there are many webpage to help and there are so many video by streamer for how doing optimal things. I stopped playing this game many times, because of RNG... OVERGRINDING... Not for casual player... But right now, i have fun doing main quest (even it's not as good as FF14). YEAH it's worth it.

[@duskowaiki]

I agree with you saying this game is event driven game, I dont agree that it is sandbox, you can do everything but you will not get to endgame just doing one thing, you need to combine events, quests, lifeskills and grinding, so no sandbox but event and quest driven game is the right description in my opinion

[@Justblaze444]

If someone is considering playing at this point - don't. The game lost it's direction and all fun it had was sucked out. It's a nice trip to play it for a couple of weeks, but don't get sucked into the grind cause it's currently completely pointless and they made it that way, paired with an awful monetization system you will just regret loosing too much time.

[@mostupdate8802]

...and too much money sadge

[@ricestrike7937]

yup. Imagine how you would feel if you spent the 1000s of hours grinding out blackstar or t9 horse, and then they just start handing it out.

[@Hateious]

I recently got into it after owning it for years. I must admit I'm enjoying it, however it is overwhelming and it tells you nothing. I can already see what people mean by the grind but ima take my time on it as I'm in no race and I play many many games. Guess I'll play untill I'm bored lol.

[@Hateious]

​@@ricestrike7937This also I'm hearing people grinded like hell and my guess it's the seasons that dish you out loads free crap, even though I'm a noob to game I admit it's unfair for others.

[@tysean0816]

I definitely wasted a couple hundred

[@godly5541]

I'm gonna give this game a try because for some reason I own it and never played it even though I know damn well I never spent 10 bucks on this

[@1Maverick2]

I'm in the same boat lmao. Been playing Throne and Liberty but I'm just not sure I like what I'm seeing in the endgame so far. I've had BDO forever and I know I never bought it lmao

[@idk8964]

I swear I downloaded this game for free like 7 years ago lol, never played it tho

[@anon3118]

If you like grinding, its worth it. If you like AoS, its worth it. If you like group content, its inconsistent. If you like lifeskilling or crafting, its not worth it

[@tipzycake8146]

Game's amazing. I loved every single hour of it even tho my progress was on par with my own goals it was never something "big" in the grand scheme of things considering the hours people put into BDO. As someone whom as of late has lost the love for games that don't respect my time what so ever, I've sadly fallen out with BDO. I Want to reinstall it, I want to love it, but I can't put myself to it. On top of that there's all these patches coming out, lifeskilling getting cucked, pvp getting removed from areas and whatever else and it really just kills it for me. Esp seeing how PA is just snorting coke and throwing mumbo jumbo out there. So many youtubers like Blue, Uni, Pansy and many more voicing their concerns as well as the community as a whole yet nothing is changing in those areas.

[@eliteladieswrestling232]

If you dont like grinding, then you won't like most mmos, since that's how it is towards the end game.

[@Vxerses]

Love these videos

[@blackairforceenergy4055]

I've had bdo for about 5 years now. I'm not the best player but I got 2 characters awakened and on end game. It's not worth it. It gets boring once you get to end game. The game does a horrible job walking you through things. Which is why we have a community of KZbin making the same videos to explain everything. It is very microtransaction heavy even though you do not have to make any. You'll be grinding for weeks of not months to progress even the slightest. Maybe that's part of the feeling of accomplishment but it's gets boring and redundant at some point. If you like brainless combat and running around for hours. This is the game for you, if not. Look elsewhere.

[@MrBulldawg6]

Man just be honest about it, dont beat around the bush about the p2w. It is 100% p2w and is by far the most p2w game in the pc/console market just as bad as mobile games however is the game fun and yes it is and admittedly one of best MMO's out there but everything you buy has some sort of buff applied to it. Buy cosmetics has buffs, buy Pets have buffs and collect loot for you, by ship cosmetics has buffs, pay for enhancemnt material to save you hours from grinding, pay for xp or loot increase scolls and thats just the tip of the iceberg. So there is no "yes and no" to the p2w its just yes but can you obtain everything with out paying and yes you probably can but will take you a very long time compare to a whale

[@tistats]

It is not worth playing anymore. There are far better alternatives that have clear visions for new players.

[@tomlecshitposting7180]

Guild Wars 2 just released maybe its best expansion yet. It really rekindled my excitement for the game.

[@urnaanyamaa1449]

Where do you grind most silver wise?

[@adriennefyrestorme]

After what i just experience in Throne and liberty, if i dont hear that Bdo is finally coming with a next-gen update, it is NOT worth it😂😅😂

[@vewyscawymonsta]

TnL feels like crap. Especially when comparing the combat.

[@KenSiTruePW]

@@vewyscawymonstacombat agreed. But TnL is more intuitive and less confusing than bdo. More engaging, social and p2p oriented. I tried to love BDO so many times but I just can’t. It’s too grindy and the grind isn’t a satisfying process, it’s a lonely process of running in circles and killing packs of mobs.

[@testtickles8878]

should i play eso or this?

[@Jonlaw98]

they're different styles of games tbh

[@alexluzier2782]

If your PC I’d say ESO but I just left ESO because servers are so dead on console. It will take 20-30minutes to find a group just to run a dungeon

[@roberttakacs65]

Bro just set the standards of what KZbin videos should be like!

[@eneateneggi5274]

Thanks to the honest comments, i ll Stay away from the game 🙏🙏🙏

[@DemonSyde]

I don t think BDO is worth playing anymore it was in old days.Let s keep it short NO role sistem NO pvp balance NO dps numbers NO team play NO sea content. WHY? pay to use central market and others WHY ? enhancement WHY? when you die from mobs lose gear WHY? gear matter and no skill needed WHY? grind 24/7 for months for gear and after a time new gear come WHY? BDO is like your second job.

[@zoologic1190]

You just described how an addicted video gamer see things. Just play for fun or get a life, don't complain about your 24/7 grind.
