[@aesirgaming1014]

I have enjoyed the global release very much, just as I enjoyed playing in KR. However, I am afraid that the same issue will hit after a little while on global servers. On KR, the game really lost popularity when people realized that the biggest alliance on most servers (not all, but most) could simply gatekeep the best items at endgame. This meant that either players had to a.) be in the biggest alliance, b.) spend a bunch of real world cash or c.) spend a ton of time grinding less efficient items to make income to buy the best items on the AH. This caused the game to lose a lot of its casual fanbase and a lot of players that were hardcore, but just not into hardcore PvP. It also caused a lot of builds to become less viable. Basically, if a build wasn't powerful in PvP (usually large-scale PvP), it was a lesser build because the builds need to maintain/break a gatekeep pretty much had to fit this mold. Thus, if you wanted to take Option A and have access to top tier items, you pretty much had to be running a meta PvP build and be into PvP. I am a pretty hardcore PvPer and even I had a lot of issues with this model. After falling out with the leadership in a top KR guild (because I dared criticize the guild leader's little brother for not following instructions during large-scale PvP), I was basically blacklisted and progressing became either impossible or consisted of running in circles, killing the same mobs over and over and over again. This isn't fun for most people and so I left. I came back to the global release because I really, really want to like this game. It's a beautiful game with modern graphics, yet a throwback feel to gameplay. As someone who remembers the days when MMORPG's were a brand new genre, I absolutely love this feel. I am hoping against hope to find a server where the top alliance behaves responsibly and gives most on the server a chance to have access to top-tier gear so that everyone can push the endgame. To guild leaders out there, if you want to keep this game alive and healthy, I highly recommend that this is what you do. I'm not saying give people a free pass at stuff, but don't gatekeep it so hard that everyone but your alliance and a few RPers quit the game.

They'd have an instant hit on their hands. They could do it, they have multiple teams with cookie-cutter engines just waiting to build a game on. It's just sad that monetization ruins the experience of all these games they make. They should use Arenanet's Guild Wars 2 as the blueprint for their mmos, and they could save themselves a lot of investment in their failed games. Or they could hire someone like me as a consultant with executive authorities to point their devs in the correct direction for massive success.

From KanonXO stream. Just hit subscribed. The in depth analysis you did here is so Gigachad. Thank you

Stop swiping bro!

[@SkarneZ]

Im gonna check this one out. What class ahould i play coming from a restoration shaman.

[@Crazywhitie]

The enemy lock on is horrible, the Map is horrible, Quest tracking is bad and they need to fix the menu issue with the conteoller.

[@ximonwhhatt3796]

If they allow you to level up without fighting monsters but doing crafting or fishing like in runescape that would be insane.

[@DavidSchleigh]

bro everytime maplestory osts start playing i get so freaking nostalgic.

[@oScRuFFiE]

Major QOL change I'd love to see is 3 skill pages PER GEAR SET instead of only 3 TOTAL. There are SO many builds I'd love to make and be able to have on hand as opposed to having to recreate them every time I want to play them. Also the game is pay to lose, you buy gear so that you essentially no longer have to do the content that drops said gear. You are paying money to remove parts of the game that you could be playing through and enjoying.

Mmos should never cater to solos, ever. Thats not an mmo. Thats not why people play mmos. Period.

[@Akodi]

People hating on the game or the P2W aspects aside. Great video, and very informative.

[@ABazsi]

There is something like this on the market with better polish. That is Guild Wars 2. They stole many things from it. I like both, but i ll be always there if this will be dead. Thanks for the great review! Nice job!

[@doomshaman5853]

Regarding guilds, it is beneficial to be in the top guild on each server, unfortunately, rest do not really matter. Epherium, SYN, Focus, Elysian, Reborn etc.

[@MrMightyZ]

Firstly, you look just like The Fonz from Happy Days which is very cool for you. Secondly, great video! Educational for me. Thirdly the guild system is beautifully designed for jerks who enjoy scamming other players. The guild leader gets to apportion loot?? What backwards pageantry is that? Custom made for slimy cheats to take advantage of the unwary and by all accounts many scumbags are having a lovely time encouraging new members to grind their butts of then just keeping their earnings. Devs need a check-up from the neck-up.

[@timjo5956]

Will eventually try the game after the Hype Phase and see if its any good in a couple of weeks :D

[@Looneytokk]

Imagine getting an amazing drop from a dungeon and ur guild leader decides who gets it. Such bs.

[@meriwidget3474]

Had a lot of fun in the character creator! ... Then I started playing, got bored pretty fast and haven't had any urge to log back in. PvP focus is always a negative for me as well.

[@WRSTxPumbaa]

The main channel is alive pog

[@JRz-76]

This game has the feel of those cheap crappy Chinese mobile MMO games. This is like when mobile MMO meets a console

[@Willias]

It's been a long time since we've gotten a decent kMMO. Fully expect this to die out in a few months once everyone hits level cap.

[@NirEfrati]

the maplestory background music my man

[@XenosFFBE]

I freaking hate conflict events. In a pay to win game, pvp is just not fun.

[@intelligence6900]

That “off” feeling is why I uninstalled maybe they will fix it at some point

[@Vandakai]

I am sorry they cant here your issues with all the credit/debit cards chinging in the background. . . NCSoft never fixes anything you will get what you get and they will milk the players they have now and then in the future they will start to milk even harder and harder just like they did their other MMOs.. NCSoft is like MMO Vampires. . . Not to mention the their greediest p2w mobile phone publisher in the known world. . .

[@Orsiex]

Did I hear maplestory in the background?

[@legitlvl10]

I want to try it but I notice there’s no warlock type class I would love to have a curse class

[@ximonwhhatt3796]

The wand weapon uses curses

[@johnsuni6224]

Im just glad it allowed the character name DigOleBick

[@uglyfoox8964]

Love there that the teleport is instant.

[@MikkiZHskDK]

What threw me off after a few hours and left me uninstalling is the terrible ui for questing and tons of systems bring introduced at lvl 5-12, from different crafting and upgrades etc , i dont wanna be bombarded with quests, if i want a quest ill take it, dont throw do many world objectives and appendixes in my face ontop of the story so early

[@Deiwulf]

Can't wait to not play the game and buy everything instead~

[@Lancerris]

This was great, i like this, more of this, well structured, nice charming smexy man voice, ty for video Mr streamer

[@raizovile]

I'm rly enjoying the game as f2p player currently guildless on karnix sadly and i work 40 hours a week just taken my time learning the game.

[@gsofficial]

This game is great for people who haven't played any other MMOs.

[@Corusame]

Great to make them avoid all other MMO's in the future you mean lol. Once players start getting gatekept from raids it'll dawn on them all those many hours grinding were worthless when you're up against someone who opens their wallet.

[@coldchillxi]

Its a solid start for an mmo, time is always the final test for the genre

[@australienski6687]

I'm actually disappointed they went with separate servers. It's 2024 I don't care for the "old school" feeling, nobody talks since half the people are on console anyway. Should have just made a mega server with sharding/phasing, inevitably we will end up with dead servers, there's no reason for it in 2024.

[@Lukasyo1337]

I would really love to play this game, but as i get older my time is fairly limited.. Grinding seems to be a big part of the game. Thats why i returned to WoW, which is heading towards a more "play at your own pace" style

[@Timmandude]

The El Nath background music ❤

[@Sublight77]

ill prob hold out for new world, but will definitely keep my eyes on this. ive tried ESO so many times and i cant pinpoint why it just doesnt catch for me, its awkward or something. i wish for warcraft on console, or even guild wars 2 would be cool.

[@philippf5594]

I did my first dungeon today and learned about these stupid tokens. They really limit you in how often you can open a f*cking dungeon chest per day in an MMO? My feeling about this game was already mixed, also because the mount system is not really good, especially when like 80% of the free obtainable ones are just different kinds of wolves. But now this token thing... man this will be hard to go on. Currently on Level 21, not a good MMORPG. Hope it gets better.

[@mategido]

yoo damn I miss your videos man, hope this one doens't sour too quickly

[@PressureLV]

The last game I played like this I think would be Star Wars knights of the old republic 2 this is definitely my first mmorpg in awhile

[@kolokoura]

Thank god for this review! Great job man, now i know for sure that i'll pass. Saved me tons of wasted time, thank you!

[@MrMightyZ]

If it’s rock paper scissors who destroys magic users? Or are they just top of the food chain?

[@SirKevok]

Very fun game. As a mmo veteran. Playing since the 90's. This game is definitely worth a try and some of your time. Im enjoying myself and will be playing possibly for a very long time.

[@baddaysbasil5376]

I'm the same kinda dude and also enjoying it...this is an impressive MMO to me compared to most other modern MMO's... FFXIV is a snooze-fest, GW2 5v5 arena battles are toxic, ESO is uninteresting, and WoW is so played out it makes you feel dirty to go back to it. This, though... it's just fun so far, and there may come a time when it requests that I pay cash to do better, but for now, I'm grateful to be playing for free, especially with this level of polish and design. Kinda sad that other Amazon-published MMO's have lest a bad taste in peoples' mouths and they just don't want to enjoy it because spite, I guess.

[@Corusame]

I call these types of MMO's sunken cost fallacy traps. You go through the honey moon phase where everything seems great but when the real grind kicks in and you realise its essentially just a progression hamster wheel you've invested too much of your time or money to want to quit.
