Black Desert Online

Korean games are notorious for being grind fests, Even more so than MMO's already are, I'll give it a go if they do a free weekend as the graphics look great :)
 
I don't mind a grind as long as there is great end game loot, and the grind is interesting and enjoyable.

It's looking fantastic to me
 
Looks lovely and all but it's all about the endgame and whether that's anygood or not.

Personally I like tab targeting style a bit too much and having a look at some recent videos (check out Steparu on the tube) it looks like a carbon copy of Tera!
 
Can we stop saying 'next-gen', we had next gen about 4 years ago, and had to wait for the console crew to catch up. :p

All the combat acts the same across the 3 disciplines, button mashing and feels like he's using a paper fan to attack them + they take forever to die.
 
agree it is annoying but its like one of the buzz words that stick and you can't stop using it at times. Shall we go for, visually the game is a notch up on anything we've seen, definitely next level.

Agree, videos are fast paced, but we dont know what camera options are available yet, and looks really close camera, I'd definitely pull it back quite a bit which will help with the such franticness
 
On the subject of grind, PearlAbyss (the studio behind it) have said that most quests won't have XP rewards, so you'll have to grind monsters to level. I don't know about you, but that sounds like the worst type of grinding to me.

If you ever played RF Online, you'll know what monster grinding is like. I don't even want to begin to think about how much time I lost to that pointless grindfest :o

God RFonline had nothing on rohan online.....you could grind half the day and only get 1%

i have no problem grinding at all tbh...stick some music on and grind away
 
Sounds like a few of you would have hated DAoC. Maybe not quite the grind these Koreans seem to like but modern, Western, MMO's are a piece of cake to level compared to DAoC.
 
I don't understand the obsession of character creation. Seriously, changing the length of hair curls? Just seems absolutely pointless.

Game looks nice though.
 

Another vid showing off some of the other aspects of the game such as mounted combat, farming and other crafts, boats, housing. Hopefully the game turns out to be better managed than ArcheAge as it does seem promising.
 
Welcome Excolo..

I really need a new awesome combat based grindy Korean MMo, I feel like re-installing Lineage!!

It bores me when people reach level cap in a day I prefer it old school :D

Crafting your character exactly how you want is what games should be like now, instead of crap generic "Pick from 1 of 6 default faces and change their hair colour/style".

I hope the next Elder Scrolls game has something similar to this level of customisation.

There's customisation and then there's this.

For a friend of mine this character creation is a wet dream. His first 2 hours of DAI were spent creating his character and he scoffs at me taking 2 mins.
