I totally trust this channel more than any other on UA-cam. It doesn’t sound like he’s trying to pump up the game or anything. He’s just giving us info on the game.
@@RpgAddict325 Barely. He keeps implying that there's flexibility with the weapon times, but it's just not true. The amount of resources needed to keep two up to date with your progression doesn't exactly allow for you to mix and match.
Every MMO youtuber right now: "Yeah, the game is great, you should try it!" (I want this niche!!!); Every MMO UA-camr in 3 months: "This game sucks, this is why I moved on" (lack of viewers) 😂
I'm super picky on games. I've been trying to find something to complain about in this game but I'm level 38 and literally can't find one single gripe. It's just fun.
I got burned, I should have taken everyone’s advice and stayed away instead of wasting my time in this game. Needs so so so much more time in the oven to cook
Gamers are cynical and entitled, generally speaking. Doubly so for video game commentators, negative coverage simply gets more engagement. And as such creators are incentivized to be cynical.
This game changed so much already (for the better!). The graphics looks great and it feels like there are many things to do. I'm so looking forward to this!!
@@chrbr5768 It is not built to play alone. You can, but you will not be on a server by yourself. Being in a guild, and doing guild stuff will significantly increase your characters powers and abilities. Going solo will leave you severely underpowered and hindered by your characters weakness.
Probably the best video to date that describes with enough detail what the game is. To many content creators babble on and on about nothing, increasing the time for their video's making them unbearable to watch. You did a fabulous job of highlight the most important, and critical aspects of the game. Thank you, other content creators should follow your lead.
He honestly did it so well, he had the facts on point, and I'm going to play it thanks to this video, and give it a try he got the main important things about the gameplay and the mechanics, the game looks really fun, I could see it being one of the biggest MMOs out there eventually
@@KasperSlapsShots I totally agree, moving forward and choosing to play the game was a result of the video making me feel comfortable enough to do so. Granite there's other critical information out there in which you have to drag yourself through watching. His points and how he presented the main sticking points to viewers was on point. Additionally, his video made me less apprehensive about trying the game.
The system on tying "classes" to weapons and skill systems might seem amazing and it would be, if the motivation behind it wasn't to make switching weapons and matching skillsets late in your journey a massive grind and purely designed to get you to spend your money.
Throne of Liberty looks intriguing, but I’m curious about the monetization model. It’ll be interesting to see how the premium currency and store impact gameplay
This game has a paper, scissor and rock system. You can spend money buying some special gears but any f2p player with the correct trait can counter and defeat you. Nobody is invencible and this is very good.
Obviously can't say for sure but Amazon games didn't make this game it's made by NCsoft which has a lot of experience keeping mmos alive. Yea some of the oldest ones that are almost 20 years old have been closed down but Guild Wars 2, Lineage 2, and Blade Soul are still around and well into a decade old. Amazon is the publisher and obviously can drop it and refuse to let NCsoft publish in the west but that wouldn't make much sense.
If anyone wanna buy early access, dont. Yesterday at launch were online only US servers, today msintenance for 6 hours and after that overloaded servers with huge lags, later on disconnects. So I reccomend wait a bit and give it a shot 😊
It says 6 hours but it wasnt really down for that time. I guess that’s for emergency call in case something shit happens. Game was up again in about 2 hours lol.
Ah I see I got the ultimate edition and I can’t even play lol I made my character played for a little bit then got disconnected and now I can’t even get back on it just loads and then goes back to the title screen.
I’m going to give this game a try, even if I’m not usually into free games. I always keep a open mind and never write off anything until I give it a fair chance.
@@ericalexander3816The EA people are in EA servers when the game goes live for F2P players, EA players won’t be able to transfer to our server unless they make a new character. So I think it’s fine.
Your weapon combo turns you into a class. The community refers to the sword and shield/wand as a paladin and so on. Also you’re not actively switching weapons, your character automatically switches based on what skills you use. Only thing switching manually does is change your auto attack.
Don't look a the system as weapons but as a class system... cause in this game you need to really pick your class and stick with it as switching weapons at endgame takes forever to level everything up again and it's not encouraged... you need to pick the skills you like and feel would make you the most powerful and level them up and stick with them. So essentially it's a class system, cause you're not gonna switch weapons for months and months if ever...
@@diggles27 You may want to look up the OG point based profession system SWG had for years. That is what I mentioned. The class system they went to at the end with NGE is when the large majority of the player base left and the game fizzed out. We didn’t want an WoW clone.
The "weapon class" thing reminds me of Elder Scrolls series. Sure you have a "class" but the "weapon skills" are all dependent on what you equip and what you use/skill up.
Curious on why that sounds good to you, honestly, not trying to just pick a fight here. Just off of the top of my head, a free to play game with tradable premium currency is like heaven for RMT bots and hackers/exploiters. This means ingame economy gets trashed and p2w gets jacked up to incredible speeds.
@@XandranxandaCheck out warframes premium currency. I played like 1000 hours of it over the years and only ever got one pack for £20 because I felt like I had to, you can get to the end game naturally very easily.
The game is decently fun. This game will live or die by its community. Amazon may have shot themselves in the foot, launching this so close the New World expansion/revamp.
Is the combat any different from beta? I did not like how the combat felt during beta. Would like to give it another shot if it feels a bit better now.
THIS! I tried the beta and soon as it got to the combat portion I did it for like 10 secs before quitting due to it feeling "clunky" (might not be the right word but that's the best description I can think of for how it felt to me) If it is different then I'd consider giving it another try
One of the things that I like about Fextralife reviews is that he always takes into consideration game difficulty as a vital part of a game, as well as mechanics.
10 minutes in and it sound way too good. The weapons classes and the skill choices, the non punishing equipment uograding snd crafting. NO LOADING SCREENS!! So whilst I'm becoming excited, and its a great snd detisled vid as always fextra but im worried its too good to be true. Well have to see. Ill definitely give it s go tho but im so busy atm idk when ill have time.
It sounds really epic. I’m going to play and see how it’s all in practice with the store, but I’m also short on time so hoping it’s not a huge grind or something as I have Diablo and new world the next few weeks too
@@Fextralife If you wanna be competitive it's a grind but compared to BDO it's less than 10-15% of that grind imho since the game never gives you backwards progression... but you still need to give the game 15-20 hours per week on most weeks to be competitive and close enough to the geared up players to be able to take them down in a fight. But 15-20 hours a week is 2-3 hours per day, so for an MMO I would say it's very very fair allowing you to be competitive even at the large scale PvP with only 2-3 hours per day... especially for a PvP focused MMO. Also, please don't play New World... hasn't this shit scammed players enough? The gameplay is horrifically unpolished and unsatisfying to look at... the combat system was made by 1st year college students in their garage on weekends... it's just a game with pretty graphics and no substance...
@@Mikodemuz11 I would say 70-30 towards PvP but close enough... PvP is a little bit more focused than PvE but you'll be doing a ton of PvE dungeons and raids and open world dungeons and bosses to gear up
Just started. No clue what is going on or how the button work. Fought a boss and could t attack for the 1st 20 minutes. Then i started attacking the cut scene and i threw an ax and hit the eye. Never been out of the loop in a game. Hoping it starts to open up.
Sounds like there are many GW2 systems baked into this game. But that makes sense speaking that NCSoft is the parent company to ArenaNet which developed GW2. Expect this game to be really good. Not right away but definitely a year after release when it’s fully fleshed out.
I like how people complain about P2W in this game but are the same players that talk about how cool Diablo III's market used to be. Everything in the game can be purchased with real money but so can literally any other mmo that exists right now. Just trying to keep it real lol
Diablo 3's real money auction house was absolutely despised, and NCShit are notorious for making extremely p2w games. Just look at Aion and Blade and Soul.
Free? looks great? I'm def waiting to get to play ! I'm a mostly pve player, and rather than crying before even playing like most sheep in the comments, I'm gonna make my own decisions.. Can't wait to dive in !
I'm a PVE player too, but when I used to play destiny I was one of few who did enjoy gambit. I'm more than willing to give it a shot, or join a guild who can fuck people up for me lol
@@Perisemiotics there are peace and conflict bosses. In conflict bosses it's an absolute shitstorm. basically you try to do damage to the boss for loot while 200 other people are shooting at each other. Most times you just walk in and die in seconds lol. then u respawn and go back and die again, like 20 times.
@@michaelblue4619 yeah that's the kind of design choice that I don't understand. I mean, I know that's "cool" in Korean games but.... the game does look interesting nonetheless, as a GW 2 player I can see where a lot of the weapon skills and combos are coming from, as well as the exploration and verticallity features which are near and dear to me. I guess I'll dip in but with no expectations given the big question mark on the money model. The video mentioned (but didn't elaborate on) Battle Passes, which have a free track so if the premium track is just cosmetic and convenience I'd be ok with it.
Man i am so curious... visually it looks great but I'm dying to know how the combat feels...if it feels good, the world is rich and rewarding, and the monetization isnt egregious, i may have a new game...🤞🏼🤞🏼
Didn’t think I’d like the auto attack system but it can be underwhelming unless you’re maxing out your cooldowns which is the trade off. One thing I like about this game so far is that you don’t get bullshit armor and weapon loot drops after every monster you kill
@@trentstuhr9354 I've seen that in a few videos now today. Essentially it's super slow and basic at the start but once you get into your specialisations in your skill tree or whatever then it really opens up...🤞🏼🤞🏼
@@fullmetalathlete Well, that's true for every MMO, the thing with this game is that it's tab target but the block/defense system gives it much more substance and at endgame it's stupidly quick and skillful... people who know what they're doing will shit on you big time... Also in this game no class is truly OP... yes, some are considered OP but none of them have zero weaknesses... for example, people love to say this game is Tanks & Liberty since Sword n Shield is considered too powerful and tanks are very very survivable while some of them do great damage too (SnS/Greatsword) or are able to heal and they just don't seem top die (SnS/Wand)... however to be tanky you need to stack evasion which is spread into melee, ranged and magic evasion... however to truly evade you need to stack a lot so all endgame players stack 2 of the 3... everyone stacks melee and then they either stack ranged of magic... so one of them is left very low... so if let's say he's left magic evasion very very low and you're a staff wielder and catch the guy out of position then you'll easily blow his ass to oblivion... plus this game is all about synergy... if you're mindlessly throwing yourself into a guild battle then the organized ones will punish you every time cause they have all classes use their skills at the right time and enemies...
Thanks Amazon games for supporting...:)))) Already a great start. But anyway, at least the game is free to play so even if it's bullshit, maybe it's worth a try.
As someone with over 500 hours on new world, you’re crazy man. For PvP heavy MMOs with semi pve contebr, throne & liberty is atleast X5 better in those aspects. Plus the gameplay is way better, more skills and way better customization.
Great video, thanks! I have been craving a MMO but not this one. Those Eastern games ported into the West always end up terrible. The monetization systems are always discouraging for people who want to play the game without spending money on cash shop items.
This one is not P2W at all by MMO standards... sorry but it's just as P2W as WoW with it's tokens while being free... in this game you can actually keep up with the gear of the top players without spending a penny (you should buy the first battle pass though, it really helps and it's only 10$)... this game's system is very simple, the players that play the most will be rewarded the most which is absolutely fair... you can earn lucent (premium currency) from PvP events and also by selling your best drops to other players... so P2W players if you wanna play this hardcore will literally support your free to play gear up progress with their money... now if you're willing to also spend 15$ a month and pretend this is your "sub" while also playing a good amount of the game then you'll be swimming in gear in no time, but that's another story, there is nothing mandatory about paying and you can 100% be at endgame without paying a dime... this game (unlike other eastern MMOs) doesn't have anything that will give you an edge over other players that you can buy from the store... you can buy only lucent which you can spend only by paying other players... Try it out man, for real... this game has some elements of P2W like all MMOs do but it's not catering to whales AT ALL... being a whale in this game is actually pretty dumb cause if you're not really good at the game almost all F2P players that play the game 15-20 hours a week will beat the ever living shit out of you cause you won't be able to out-gear them anyway just by paying... Anyway, just think it's unwise to pass up on a game that could potentially give you hundreds or even thousands of hours of fun... this one is a REAL MMO... it's not pretending...
Sounds like a reasonably balanced review, but I don't know this guy or if he's in Amazon's pocket or what. It's a good overall detailed look compared to most of the extremist videos that do nothing to communicate what the game IS but rather spend time on what it might become. Thanks for the info, I will drop a like and a sub for your efforts. Meanwhile, I'm very interested in actual substantive input from people who have played the game, not watchers or haters or fanbois. If you like it, tell me why, if you don't, tell me why. I don't really care about monetization, I have never been reluctant to spend good money on good entertainment, I believe in paying for value received. And I don't compete with the whales and couldn't care less what kind of game advantages they're getting. I measure a game solely based on how much fun it is to play. What a concept!
Not showing the actual game being played is very very suspicious. Yes it'll be out in a week and it'll look very very very very very very very very different than what you see here
What about dual wielding? I saw a couple times in the video how some characters were wielding two swords/daggers in both hands, or had them on the back while using different weapons in the meantime.
From what i saw there is not dual wielding, the daggers and crosbows count as one weapon. The weapon in the back is there because you can carry 2 weapons and switch.
It looks pretty sure, but I wonder how it could scale further down the line, I will give it a while to see later on. Guild Wars 2 is like 10 years old, but is absolutely amazing, steps away from the usual MMO hardlock "big three" classes too and does it really well, along with a non-linear character progression, where a player could choose to play however they want without a hardfocus on the main story or quest.
For people who still hesitate: -barely any p2w, at least compared to games like LA -great graphics with phenomenal optimalisation, even in large scale pvp -abilities feel great -combat might be a tab target but there's a lot of AoE and it's still fast paced, I've never seen tab target this agile in an mmo, overall a 10/10 -movement is nice, nothing feels clunky, everything just flows perfectly As someone who wasn't even gonna try this game, it really turned out to be a 9/10 game, 10/10 for those who love pvp
I'll try to make a request here, I've been craving for a game to play coop with my body, and we're getting nowhere. We played so much stuff together that we don't even know what's left, could you make a video with a variety of coop games to play with a friend? It doesn't need to be local, thanks.
Another excellent video. Will try it since it's free, but doubt it will completely tear me away from Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldurs Gate 3 or the upcoming kingdom Come Deliverance 2 or Dragon Age....but I'll try it. Being a PVE explorer, it will all come down to the story and quests for me and just how dynamic the world feels in general.
There are def so many good games to play! I think because this is free it’s an easy try for everyone. I’m hoping it works out cause I love how combat looks and I’d love to get super into it.
@@Belgarath777 Everyone has their own taste but I do agree with the other guy...That game looks horrible...The old Dragon Ages were wayyyyyy better looking compared to this one..
Game has more swag than it has any right to lol I acidentally walked off a cliff and hit my mount button to try and have it eat the fall damage like you can in some other games. Turns out the mount key is context sensitive so my character instead tumbles midair and turns into an eagle. It's one of those games that's really good at making the player feel like a badass even if they're still learning.
Look, let's be honest... Asians are the ONLY ONES that know what badass means in video games... think about the most badass video games you've ever played, I guarantee you 95% of them are made in Asia... For reference, think about how AAA Western Action RPG games feel and then think about Capcom's Devil May Cry series... if you can tell me you've played anything more badass from the west than being Dante in Devil May Cry I dare you to tell me the game cause I HAVE TO PLAY IT!!! Another example is my favorite game from the last 5 years which is Monster Hunter World... the moment I played that combat system and started those epic 30+ minute battles against the giant monsters of the game my eyes lit up and all I could think was "where the fuck were you all my life??? This is the best combat system and most fun video game I've ever played!!!" Asians man... they know their shit... here in the west we're too cowardly to go all out on the badass meter!!!
@sportschool3537 know they dont. There's a reason why eastern games flopped compared to western games, due to p2w and shit writing. Western games are the ones about badassary and amazing writing. I get it, you guys bashed those two woke western games and so you're attacking millions of massive successful western games, I get it. But don't fall to delusion. Compared to the western game I play, this combat is almost good enough to be called mediocre. Side note, ain't no one more badass than Master Chief and Kratos, or Marcus from gears😂
@@celphalonred1999 Gears of war is badass cause of the narrative, not the gameplay... gameplay isn't something hugely imaginative... it's classic soldier gameplay I'm talking about the GAMEPLAY being badass and at that Asians are unmatched... the fact you're trying to say otherwise means you have no experience in gaming... I've been gaming since 1995 and I've played thousands of games... grow up and learn to be objective... Asians OBJECTIVELY make better video games with more polished combat systems... You're one of those people who call themselves "purists" probably and think the best combat system of all time is Dark Souls which is objectively ridiculous to think... you're the classic "I play only what mainstream media" tells me to play and ignore everything else... Go play 10 hours of Monster Hunter and I dare you to find me a more polished game... but be objective... you need to explain WHY something is better or worse... Now grow up...
I've been looking for an MMO to get into for a while now and just saw this release randomly today. So I had to check it out. It's currently still downloading but I definitely hope it hooks me
Game is great and this is probably one of the best reviews. I honestly miss the days of games journalists giving a thorough analysis of a game. Now there just seems to be endless line of UA-camrs with clickbate videos full of sensationalised talking points.
@@cit9915 Not sure why you think so, but if you play it you will recognize that it´s nothing like what you mentioned. It´s pretty much a modern Lineage or Aion gameplay wise.
I'm actually surprised the comparison to new world wasn't made here. As far as the combat and weapon system goes it sounds pretty much identical being tied to weapons and the whole battling other guilds thing, even the way upgrading gear is handled. I do understand they were made by the same company but this kinda feels like New World 2 which we (kinda) already getting with Aeturnum, at launch new world was really good but we see how that turned out. I have been following this game for a few years and glad it's finally coming out in the US but i'm gonna have to reserve judgement for the first few months. I am excited to see how they plan to distinguish the two games from each other though.
I'm going to save you guys the TL;DP (Too long, didn’t play) 🤣🤣 I played on the KR servers, reached Epic 2 set T2 content/dungeons, and maxed my gear at the time. At endgame: - Endgame will solely depend on the alliance that takes over the server. Both PvP and PvE content are heavily tied to this. - It gets stale, and you’ll notice how lacking the devs are in terms of competence. It’s as if they don’t know where the game is heading. - Yes, it’s open-world, but you’ll mostly use teleporters, and it feels more linear than “open” due to all the content being separated into zones with invisible walls disguised as big rocks or mountains. - You’ll notice how small and disconnected parts of the map are (which breaks the "open-world" immersion, in my opinion). - Gear is heavily pay-to-win . - The game is very meta-centric, both in PvP and PvE, with lots of gatekeeping. - Everyone equips SNS during Node Wars. - Good luck having fun as a solo player! 🤣 - The reason it died in KR is that the devs don’t know how to balance the advantage of big alliances, and it ruins the entire game’s content. TL;DR I give this 3 months tops in the West.
You played but you didn't know what kind of game you were getting into... 1. Solo player? This game doesn't cater to solo players and THANK THE FUCKING GOD cause it's an MMORPG... if you wanna play solo go play a solo AAA RPG game, not an MMO 2. Yes, the zerg is powerful but being a good competent guild of geared up players you can 100% fight back 3. Alliances are up to 4 guilds, so an alliance can't be over 200 players tops and a 50 player guild that is coordinated and geared up can get a lot of endgame content done... yes, you might not win the biggest siege or be the one that gate keeps the open world dungeons at night, but you can fight back in most instances. 4. The only gear that is P2W are Archboss Weapons which are insanely expensive to buy with real money while also not guaranteeing you that you'll beat maxed out T2 Epic gear so yeah, have fun paying 2000$ only to be shit on by a better player that didn't pay. T2 Epic is not sellable on the market so you need to PLAY to gear up. 5. All meta classes have weaknesses... exploit them, I don't know what you mean... 6. SnS is powerful for sure but a guild that plays only tanks will get shit on, you're stupid if you say otherwise... all classes have a use IF PLAYED CORRECTLY 7. The reason it died in KR is because the player base was complaining about not being able to get more power by playing... there was a huge wave of whales whining and crying about the game "wasting their money" because they realized in this game you pay to be competitive in gear score but you can't really P2W cause you'll always have weaknesses that good players will exploit.
As usual the super huge, extremely rich amazon games refuses to publish this in Africa amongst other regions. Sigh, they are like the only company that does that
You don’t get armor or weapon drops after every kill which to me is more rewarding. Combat is decent even with auto attack because of all the abilities and customization you can make.
Sheep detected. This is p2w garbage, it literally failed in Korea. Game will die fast in NA. These zombies never learn with p2w cash shop Korean mmos 😂
When the servers don't work perfectly the second they start up with a new load of 50k+ people joining almost all at once or over the course of a few hours, so everyone downvotes the game even though it's been out for a day.
Started good in Korea, but now its taking its path to getting pay to win garbage. Check out Kanons vids. He explains how p2w its going to get. Sadly, the game had potential🎉
No, you can't improve the rate... there is a chance to get more progress with a "critical success" but it's completely random and has nothing to do with payment... also unlike BDO or some bullshit like that the game doesn't have any backwards progress or failure to progress... the more you play the more you progress, plain and simple... The game is fair... yes it does have some P2W but F2P players can be at endgame without spending a dime just fine... the only thing I would encourage you to buy is the battle pass which is only 10$ and it will help you get more enhancement materials... but ONLY THAT... and you can earn the lucent to buy the next battle passes for free 100%... TRY THE GAME... if you like MMOs this is a must play game...
This looks like a really good and Diversified MMO, I'm def gonna try it out, I love the concept of how you can switch animals/beast based on the terrain and situation, and I do actually like the weapon features how it is basically your class it lets you have so much more options you can play 2 main weapons and play around with abilities and create your own style of gameplay, I feel like yes some combinations will be better then others but the options lets you learn your own style and master it that combo
Very nice video with all the info perfectly explain, as usual ;) I think I saw this game in my steam page, and was like, huh.... doesn't looks bad, yeah, I will play it from day 1 and see how it goes, the exploration looks good, but I'm a bit concern about the endgame, if its 100% pvp, or what, but the weapon skill system looks similar to guild wars, and I loved guild wars 1 PvP, so maybe I love the PVP in this one.... thenks for the video keep it up!
Looking at the level of detail in the surroundings and players, the sheer number of players being that it's an MMO, and the immense size of the world.... with no loading screens. And Starfield has three loading screens just to leave your ship. Way to go, Todd. One thing I always liked about Guild Wars 2 was the fact that underwater wasn't a forbidden area with running out of air and what not. And the added sea life pet companions you could get. Because GW2 had some gorgeous underwater areas. Hopefully with the animal transformations this has something like that, too.
For some reason my game doesn’t really look like this on ps5 lol. It’s super zoomed out and you have the little recticle. Makes it look a lot different then the gameplay they show most of the time
Ngl i been looking for a game like this something close to how isekai anime would be exploring,classes,guilds,dungeons and etc all the things that make up an isekai and good story modes and this just about covers it all

Granite there's other critical information out there in which you have to drag yourself through watching. His points and how he presented the main sticking points to viewers was on point. Additionally, his video made me less apprehensive about trying the game.
Just forglt about the pay2win aspect to keep up to date with your builds.
Fextra are on the mount Rushmore of dependable game channels
I'm missing some actually gameplay footage with the HUD UI and everything
The system on tying "classes" to weapons and skill systems might seem amazing and it would be, if the motivation behind it wasn't to make switching weapons and matching skillsets late in your journey a massive grind and purely designed to get you to spend your money.
The music for this game is off the hook as well. Gives you chills at times.
The main theme is legit good
Lowkey a huge selling point for me in any video game
Throne of Liberty looks intriguing, but I’m curious about the monetization model. It’ll be interesting to see how the premium currency and store impact gameplay
apparently it was pretty bad in the korean release but they improved on it now and its mostly cosmetics and some faster progression- materials
@@basst7366 it was not p2w enough in Korea that most Koreans stopped playing. wild but historic moment for the genre. and big win for NCsoft.
It’s not so pay to win now even whales who spend thousands will get crapped on by the counter to their class or someone who is just better skilled
This game has a paper, scissor and rock system. You can spend money buying some special gears but any f2p player with the correct trait can counter and defeat you. Nobody is invencible and this is very good.
@@Vertigo1016 power progression stops around $1500 now. Any more spent and youre getting decimal percentages of increase lol
That's cool but how long until they abandon this game and start another
Obviously can't say for sure but Amazon games didn't make this game it's made by NCsoft which has a lot of experience keeping mmos alive. Yea some of the oldest ones that are almost 20 years old have been closed down but Guild Wars 2, Lineage 2, and Blade Soul are still around and well into a decade old. Amazon is the publisher and obviously can drop it and refuse to let NCsoft publish in the west but that wouldn't make much sense.
Week or so 😂
Good question actually hahah
well it will certainly last longer than Concord...🤣🤣🤣
@@BaeBunni Keeping MMOs alive is a stretch. NCsoft is great at keeping MMOs on life support while they squeeze out a bit more money.
Man.. Maybe it's just the old school gamer in me, but I'm SO lost on a game the second I hear "it has a battle pass"
Same.
If anyone wanna buy early access, dont. Yesterday at launch were online only US servers, today msintenance for 6 hours and after that overloaded servers with huge lags, later on disconnects. So I reccomend wait a bit and give it a shot 😊
It says 6 hours but it wasnt really down for that time. I guess that’s for emergency call in case something shit happens. Game was up again in about 2 hours lol.
Ah I see I got the ultimate edition and I can’t even play lol I made my character played for a little bit then got disconnected and now I can’t even get back on it just loads and then goes back to the title screen.
The 30 fps is what killed it for me
@@SheewdoodleFBconsole? It’s consistent 60-120 on my mid rig
@@SheewdoodleFB oh damn really? That sucks
I’m going to give this game a try, even if I’m not usually into free games. I always keep a open mind and never write off anything until I give it a fair chance.
Good stuff, you're not a mindless drone that forms their opinion based on the majority. so rare to see these days
The game is fun give it a shot when it drops for free, if you don’t like it that’s fair you got to see if you like a game or not for free!.
You are not in to free games? wa?So if this game was 60 dollars you would be in to this? lol
@@Mikodemuz11 its made by koreans. its possible that this game will have extreme monetization
@@Resilience93 No this games bad lol its legit typical you can buy raid gear in the AH so buy gold buy items = You win
Looks good but the monetization model will make it or break it.
Yeah… I’ll try it as a F2P for a week. If I like it, I’ll buy the BP to help with some progression and support the company.
Why?
It already have P2W as you pay $40 to have a 5 days head start.
@@ericalexander3816The EA people are in EA servers when the game goes live for F2P players, EA players won’t be able to transfer to our server unless they make a new character. So I think it’s fine.
@@ericalexander3816head start is not p2w, it’s also pretty irrelevant
im a little concerned about a video titled "should you play it?" and " thanks to amazon games for sponsoring this video"
😂😂😂😂
This game would have been a 10/10 for me if it had classes instead of this double weapon system. Classes are my favourite thing in mmos.
Your weapon combo turns you into a class. The community refers to the sword and shield/wand as a paladin and so on. Also you’re not actively switching weapons, your character automatically switches based on what skills you use. Only thing switching manually does is change your auto attack.
Don't look a the system as weapons but as a class system... cause in this game you need to really pick your class and stick with it as switching weapons at endgame takes forever to level everything up again and it's not encouraged... you need to pick the skills you like and feel would make you the most powerful and level them up and stick with them.
So essentially it's a class system, cause you're not gonna switch weapons for months and months if ever...
its like runescape
Think of it as multi-classing instead of simply a weapon system
Classless system is almost perfect! It’s scale is just too limited. Star Wars Galaxies OG system still has yet to be matched or surpassed.
You could only have 2 classes in SWG, get your memory checked
@@diggles27 You may want to look up the OG point based profession system SWG had for years. That is what I mentioned. The class system they went to at the end with NGE is when the large majority of the player base left and the game fizzed out. We didn’t want an WoW clone.
The "weapon class" thing reminds me of Elder Scrolls series.
Sure you have a "class" but the "weapon skills" are all dependent on what you equip and what you use/skill up.
Love to hear that premium currency is tradeable. Reminds me of Warframe's monetization.
Warframe has the best monetization system.
Curious on why that sounds good to you, honestly, not trying to just pick a fight here. Just off of the top of my head, a free to play game with tradable premium currency is like heaven for RMT bots and hackers/exploiters. This means ingame economy gets trashed and p2w gets jacked up to incredible speeds.
@@XandranxandaCheck out warframes premium currency. I played like 1000 hours of it over the years and only ever got one pack for £20 because I felt like I had to, you can get to the end game naturally very easily.
Are you talking abkut warframe or T&L ?@@Xandranxanda
Greetings Tenno 🤝🏾
I subbed and used your link to play solely because of the drum and bass outro
The game is decently fun. This game will live or die by its community. Amazon may have shot themselves in the foot, launching this so close the New World expansion/revamp.
No one gives a fook about new world anymore 😂
@@wingsofunlimitedpepsi6817A crazy amount of people played the beta on consoles 😂
And new world is not p2w just fyi
You think amazon is stupid?
@@wingsofunlimitedpepsi6817servers are booming
Is the combat any different from beta? I did not like how the combat felt during beta. Would like to give it another shot if it feels a bit better now.
THIS! I tried the beta and soon as it got to the combat portion I did it for like 10 secs before quitting due to it feeling "clunky" (might not be the right word but that's the best description I can think of for how it felt to me)
If it is different then I'd consider giving it another try
This actually looks really fun, I miss MMOs.
One of the things that I like about Fextralife reviews is that he always takes into consideration game difficulty as a vital part of a game, as well as mechanics.
I didn’t hear anything about that and specifically wonder about it. What did he say? Is there any challenging content?
10 minutes in and it sound way too good. The weapons classes and the skill choices, the non punishing equipment uograding snd crafting. NO LOADING SCREENS!! So whilst I'm becoming excited, and its a great snd detisled vid as always fextra but im worried its too good to be true. Well have to see. Ill definitely give it s go tho but im so busy atm idk when ill have time.
It sounds really epic. I’m going to play and see how it’s all in practice with the store, but I’m also short on time so hoping it’s not a huge grind or something as I have Diablo and new world the next few weeks too
@@Fextralife If you wanna be competitive it's a grind but compared to BDO it's less than 10-15% of that grind imho since the game never gives you backwards progression... but you still need to give the game 15-20 hours per week on most weeks to be competitive and close enough to the geared up players to be able to take them down in a fight. But 15-20 hours a week is 2-3 hours per day, so for an MMO I would say it's very very fair allowing you to be competitive even at the large scale PvP with only 2-3 hours per day... especially for a PvP focused MMO.
Also, please don't play New World... hasn't this shit scammed players enough? The gameplay is horrifically unpolished and unsatisfying to look at... the combat system was made by 1st year college students in their garage on weekends... it's just a game with pretty graphics and no substance...
@@sportschool3537 Good thing I dont do pvp in these kinds of games. I am a pve player and this looks awesome for pve.
80% pvp
@@Mikodemuz11 I would say 70-30 towards PvP but close enough... PvP is a little bit more focused than PvE but you'll be doing a ton of PvE dungeons and raids and open world dungeons and bosses to gear up
Just started. No clue what is going on or how the button work. Fought a boss and could t attack for the 1st 20 minutes. Then i started attacking the cut scene and i threw an ax and hit the eye. Never been out of the loop in a game. Hoping it starts to open up.
I like that you can transform into animals really awesome
Sounds like there are many GW2 systems baked into this game. But that makes sense speaking that NCSoft is the parent company to ArenaNet which developed GW2. Expect this game to be really good. Not right away but definitely a year after release when it’s fully fleshed out.
I like how people complain about P2W in this game but are the same players that talk about how cool Diablo III's market used to be. Everything in the game can be purchased with real money but so can literally any other mmo that exists right now. Just trying to keep it real lol
Not entirely true. Ff14 doesnt do that
Diablo 3's real money auction house was absolutely despised, and NCShit are notorious for making extremely p2w games. Just look at Aion and Blade and Soul.
amazing video, you got me as a sub thank you.
Free? looks great? I'm def waiting to get to play ! I'm a mostly pve player, and rather than crying before even playing like most sheep in the comments, I'm gonna make my own decisions.. Can't wait to dive in !
I doubt it'll be fun for a pve player as this is a pvp centric game.
I'm a PVE player too, but when I used to play destiny I was one of few who did enjoy gambit. I'm more than willing to give it a shot, or join a guild who can fuck people up for me lol
@@michaelblue4619 so I guess it features open-world pvp along with all the nuisances that come with it?
@@Perisemiotics there are peace and conflict bosses. In conflict bosses it's an absolute shitstorm. basically you try to do damage to the boss for loot while 200 other people are shooting at each other. Most times you just walk in and die in seconds lol. then u respawn and go back and die again, like 20 times.
@@michaelblue4619 yeah that's the kind of design choice that I don't understand. I mean, I know that's "cool" in Korean games but.... the game does look interesting nonetheless, as a GW 2 player I can see where a lot of the weapon skills and combos are coming from, as well as the exploration and verticallity features which are near and dear to me. I guess I'll dip in but with no expectations given the big question mark on the money model. The video mentioned (but didn't elaborate on) Battle Passes, which have a free track so if the premium track is just cosmetic and convenience I'd be ok with it.
I actually like the game. A lot of customization. Obviously, there's a lot that can be added, but the foundation is great!
Man i am so curious... visually it looks great but I'm dying to know how the combat feels...if it feels good, the world is rich and rewarding, and the monetization isnt egregious, i may have a new game...🤞🏼🤞🏼
Didn’t think I’d like the auto attack system but it can be underwhelming unless you’re maxing out your cooldowns which is the trade off. One thing I like about this game so far is that you don’t get bullshit armor and weapon loot drops after every monster you kill
Combat felt VERY slow during the beta. They'd basically have to completely overhaul it to make it feel good to me. Just my opinion though
Combat feels good. Starts off slower and as you level up you abilities and traits, it gets way better.
@@trentstuhr9354 I've seen that in a few videos now today. Essentially it's super slow and basic at the start but once you get into your specialisations in your skill tree or whatever then it really opens up...🤞🏼🤞🏼
@@fullmetalathlete Well, that's true for every MMO, the thing with this game is that it's tab target but the block/defense system gives it much more substance and at endgame it's stupidly quick and skillful... people who know what they're doing will shit on you big time...
Also in this game no class is truly OP... yes, some are considered OP but none of them have zero weaknesses... for example, people love to say this game is Tanks & Liberty since Sword n Shield is considered too powerful and tanks are very very survivable while some of them do great damage too (SnS/Greatsword) or are able to heal and they just don't seem top die (SnS/Wand)... however to be tanky you need to stack evasion which is spread into melee, ranged and magic evasion... however to truly evade you need to stack a lot so all endgame players stack 2 of the 3... everyone stacks melee and then they either stack ranged of magic... so one of them is left very low... so if let's say he's left magic evasion very very low and you're a staff wielder and catch the guy out of position then you'll easily blow his ass to oblivion...
plus this game is all about synergy... if you're mindlessly throwing yourself into a guild battle then the organized ones will punish you every time cause they have all classes use their skills at the right time and enemies...
Best explanation I watched so far, gonna download right away when I get home 🍻
Thanks Amazon games for supporting...:)))) Already a great start. But anyway, at least the game is free to play so even if it's bullshit, maybe it's worth a try.
Hey for free, worth a look. 👀
Nice video, made it sound far more interesting than I’ve read elsewhere.
I definitely like new world more so far. Throne and liberty hasn't grabbed me yet but I'm willing to keep trying untill Oct 15
You enjoyed those bullshit quests?
ur just onother sheep
As someone with over 500 hours on new world, you’re crazy man. For PvP heavy MMOs with semi pve contebr, throne & liberty is atleast X5 better in those aspects. Plus the gameplay is way better, more skills and way better customization.
@@cainsalem3544 I guess I'm crazy too as I definitely enjoyed new world more as well.
New world costs money, this game in the video will be free on the 1st, it only cost to play now for early access
Was just thinking about getting this on PS5 right now, perfect time to catch your video!
Free is free, I'm gonna check it out on launch for sure
Is this just gonna be on pc? Or is it coming to consoles?
Great video, thanks!
I have been craving a MMO but not this one. Those Eastern games ported into the West always end up terrible. The monetization systems are always discouraging for people who want to play the game without spending money on cash shop items.
This one is not P2W at all by MMO standards... sorry but it's just as P2W as WoW with it's tokens while being free... in this game you can actually keep up with the gear of the top players without spending a penny (you should buy the first battle pass though, it really helps and it's only 10$)... this game's system is very simple, the players that play the most will be rewarded the most which is absolutely fair... you can earn lucent (premium currency) from PvP events and also by selling your best drops to other players... so P2W players if you wanna play this hardcore will literally support your free to play gear up progress with their money... now if you're willing to also spend 15$ a month and pretend this is your "sub" while also playing a good amount of the game then you'll be swimming in gear in no time, but that's another story, there is nothing mandatory about paying and you can 100% be at endgame without paying a dime... this game (unlike other eastern MMOs) doesn't have anything that will give you an edge over other players that you can buy from the store... you can buy only lucent which you can spend only by paying other players...
Try it out man, for real... this game has some elements of P2W like all MMOs do but it's not catering to whales AT ALL... being a whale in this game is actually pretty dumb cause if you're not really good at the game almost all F2P players that play the game 15-20 hours a week will beat the ever living shit out of you cause you won't be able to out-gear them anyway just by paying...
Anyway, just think it's unwise to pass up on a game that could potentially give you hundreds or even thousands of hours of fun... this one is a REAL MMO... it's not pretending...
Is there any crafting or gathering systems?
Sounds like a reasonably balanced review, but I don't know this guy or if he's in Amazon's pocket or what. It's a good overall detailed look compared to most of the extremist videos that do nothing to communicate what the game IS but rather spend time on what it might become. Thanks for the info, I will drop a like and a sub for your efforts. Meanwhile, I'm very interested in actual substantive input from people who have played the game, not watchers or haters or fanbois. If you like it, tell me why, if you don't, tell me why. I don't really care about monetization, I have never been reluctant to spend good money on good entertainment, I believe in paying for value received. And I don't compete with the whales and couldn't care less what kind of game advantages they're getting. I measure a game solely based on how much fun it is to play. What a concept!
Not showing the actual game being played is very very suspicious. Yes it'll be out in a week and it'll look very very very very very very very very different than what you see here
I’ve been waiting years for any new mmorpg that fits this style. I’ll play it 100% downloading now
This game looks fun.
What about dual wielding? I saw a couple times in the video how some characters were wielding two swords/daggers in both hands, or had them on the back while using different weapons in the meantime.
From what i saw there is not dual wielding, the daggers and crosbows count as one weapon. The weapon in the back is there because you can carry 2 weapons and switch.
A market place based on premium currency... yeah, that'll definitely not go south....
People keep calling me stupid for saying the same thing. It’s Amazon 😂
yeah literally "how to kill your new MMO 101" type shi right there.
I hate releases in the middle of the work week 😭 gotta wait until I get home after 10pm and then download it
I am so glad the "tik tok captions" ended very early, it's so annoying.
Thanks for the review! I’m gonna try to play :)
It looks pretty sure, but I wonder how it could scale further down the line, I will give it a while to see later on.
Guild Wars 2 is like 10 years old, but is absolutely amazing, steps away from the usual MMO hardlock "big three" classes too and does it really well, along with a non-linear character progression, where a player could choose to play however they want without a hardfocus on the main story or quest.
So pumped to have something new to play before VoH drops. I hope I dig it.
Lineage 2 with a huge upgrade
Nothing compares to L2.
@@MrTheBestSweeperthis. The art, difference and buffer and well formed party could make. I miss it.
How does one go about communicating with Fextralife in regards to joining the staff as a contributor?
For people who still hesitate:
-barely any p2w, at least compared to games like LA
-great graphics with phenomenal optimalisation, even in large scale pvp
-abilities feel great
-combat might be a tab target but there's a lot of AoE and it's still fast paced, I've never seen tab target this agile in an mmo, overall a 10/10
-movement is nice, nothing feels clunky, everything just flows perfectly
As someone who wasn't even gonna try this game, it really turned out to be a 9/10 game, 10/10 for those who love pvp
Game is good but not for casuals
@@redrepublic5557 not for casuals, how so?
Comparing it to other p2w games to tell this is less p2w 🤣🤣🤣
thats a nice comment main thing was pushing me away from this was ncosft so youll say pay to win wont affect pvp??? thats my biggest concern
saying TnL combat a 10/10 is actually wild 🤡
I'll try to make a request here, I've been craving for a game to play coop with my body, and we're getting nowhere.
We played so much stuff together that we don't even know what's left, could you make a video with a variety of coop games to play with a friend? It doesn't need to be local, thanks.
Another excellent video. Will try it since it's free, but doubt it will completely tear me away from Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldurs Gate 3 or the upcoming kingdom Come Deliverance 2 or Dragon Age....but I'll try it. Being a PVE explorer, it will all come down to the story and quests for me and just how dynamic the world feels in general.
yeah if you enjoy those games I'm guessing the exploration in this wont hit the spot
There are def so many good games to play! I think because this is free it’s an easy try for everyone. I’m hoping it works out cause I love how combat looks and I’d love to get super into it.
Dragon Age looks terrible
@@milessak1738 I don't agree
@@Belgarath777 Everyone has their own taste but I do agree with the other guy...That game looks horrible...The old Dragon Ages were wayyyyyy better looking compared to this one..
I haven't heard much about this game until now. I'm really liking the art direction in what I'm seeing here, and the weapon based skills.
Game has more swag than it has any right to lol I acidentally walked off a cliff and hit my mount button to try and have it eat the fall damage like you can in some other games. Turns out the mount key is context sensitive so my character instead tumbles midair and turns into an eagle. It's one of those games that's really good at making the player feel like a badass even if they're still learning.
You can pretend you did it on purpose lol
Look, let's be honest... Asians are the ONLY ONES that know what badass means in video games... think about the most badass video games you've ever played, I guarantee you 95% of them are made in Asia...
For reference, think about how AAA Western Action RPG games feel and then think about Capcom's Devil May Cry series... if you can tell me you've played anything more badass from the west than being Dante in Devil May Cry I dare you to tell me the game cause I HAVE TO PLAY IT!!!
Another example is my favorite game from the last 5 years which is Monster Hunter World... the moment I played that combat system and started those epic 30+ minute battles against the giant monsters of the game my eyes lit up and all I could think was "where the fuck were you all my life??? This is the best combat system and most fun video game I've ever played!!!"
Asians man... they know their shit... here in the west we're too cowardly to go all out on the badass meter!!!
@sportschool3537 know they dont. There's a reason why eastern games flopped compared to western games, due to p2w and shit writing. Western games are the ones about badassary and amazing writing. I get it, you guys bashed those two woke western games and so you're attacking millions of massive successful western games, I get it. But don't fall to delusion.
Compared to the western game I play, this combat is almost good enough to be called mediocre.
Side note, ain't no one more badass than Master Chief and Kratos, or Marcus from gears😂
@@celphalonred1999 Gears of war is badass cause of the narrative, not the gameplay... gameplay isn't something hugely imaginative... it's classic soldier gameplay
I'm talking about the GAMEPLAY being badass and at that Asians are unmatched... the fact you're trying to say otherwise means you have no experience in gaming... I've been gaming since 1995 and I've played thousands of games... grow up and learn to be objective... Asians OBJECTIVELY make better video games with more polished combat systems...
You're one of those people who call themselves "purists" probably and think the best combat system of all time is Dark Souls which is objectively ridiculous to think... you're the classic "I play only what mainstream media" tells me to play and ignore everything else...
Go play 10 hours of Monster Hunter and I dare you to find me a more polished game... but be objective... you need to explain WHY something is better or worse...
Now grow up...
I've been looking for an MMO to get into for a while now and just saw this release randomly today. So I had to check it out. It's currently still downloading but I definitely hope it hooks me
Game is great and this is probably one of the best reviews. I honestly miss the days of games journalists giving a thorough analysis of a game. Now there just seems to be endless line of UA-camrs with clickbate videos full of sensationalised talking points.
The frame gen does not seem to work, any tips?
So it’s basically bdo and new world
Eso x never winter.
@@celphalonred1999That is what it looks like to me too. ESO gameplay with Neverwinter’s predatory p2w.

@@cit9915 Not sure why you think so, but if you play it you will recognize that it´s nothing like what you mentioned. It´s pretty much a modern Lineage or Aion gameplay wise.
@@celphalonred1999definitely better combat than eso
I hope that solo players and those not interested in pvp will have something to do. the game looks wonderful!
i wonder if theyll add a katana :)
And a ninja sword
I'm actually surprised the comparison to new world wasn't made here. As far as the combat and weapon system goes it sounds pretty much identical being tied to weapons and the whole battling other guilds thing, even the way upgrading gear is handled. I do understand they were made by the same company but this kinda feels like New World 2 which we (kinda) already getting with Aeturnum, at launch new world was really good but we see how that turned out. I have been following this game for a few years and glad it's finally coming out in the US but i'm gonna have to reserve judgement for the first few months. I am excited to see how they plan to distinguish the two games from each other though.
The game is amazing
Y is all fighting and animation feels they are running on fast forward? Is the video running x2 or its the actual gameplay?
I'm going to save you guys the TL;DP (Too long, didn’t play) 🤣🤣
I played on the KR servers, reached Epic 2 set T2 content/dungeons, and maxed my gear at the time.
At endgame:
- Endgame will solely depend on the alliance that takes over the server. Both PvP and PvE content are heavily tied to this.
- It gets stale, and you’ll notice how lacking the devs are in terms of competence. It’s as if they don’t know where the game is heading.
- Yes, it’s open-world, but you’ll mostly use teleporters, and it feels more linear than “open” due to all the content being separated into zones with invisible walls disguised as big rocks or mountains.
- You’ll notice how small and disconnected parts of the map are (which breaks the "open-world" immersion, in my opinion).
- Gear is heavily pay-to-win .
- The game is very meta-centric, both in PvP and PvE, with lots of gatekeeping.
- Everyone equips SNS during Node Wars.
- Good luck having fun as a solo player! 🤣
- The reason it died in KR is that the devs don’t know how to balance the advantage of big alliances, and it ruins the entire game’s content.
TL;DR
I give this 3 months tops in the West.
You played but you didn't know what kind of game you were getting into...
1. Solo player? This game doesn't cater to solo players and THANK THE FUCKING GOD cause it's an MMORPG... if you wanna play solo go play a solo AAA RPG game, not an MMO
2. Yes, the zerg is powerful but being a good competent guild of geared up players you can 100% fight back
3. Alliances are up to 4 guilds, so an alliance can't be over 200 players tops and a 50 player guild that is coordinated and geared up can get a lot of endgame content done... yes, you might not win the biggest siege or be the one that gate keeps the open world dungeons at night, but you can fight back in most instances.
4. The only gear that is P2W are Archboss Weapons which are insanely expensive to buy with real money while also not guaranteeing you that you'll beat maxed out T2 Epic gear so yeah, have fun paying 2000$ only to be shit on by a better player that didn't pay. T2 Epic is not sellable on the market so you need to PLAY to gear up.
5. All meta classes have weaknesses... exploit them, I don't know what you mean...
6. SnS is powerful for sure but a guild that plays only tanks will get shit on, you're stupid if you say otherwise... all classes have a use IF PLAYED CORRECTLY
7. The reason it died in KR is because the player base was complaining about not being able to get more power by playing... there was a huge wave of whales whining and crying about the game "wasting their money" because they realized in this game you pay to be competitive in gear score but you can't really P2W cause you'll always have weaknesses that good players will exploit.
Everything is incorrect. You definitely haven't touched the game😂
@@celphalonred1999 Ok, everything I say is incorrect... whatever honey boo boo...
I just started playing this morning, seems okay so far.
As usual the super huge, extremely rich amazon games refuses to publish this in Africa amongst other regions. Sigh, they are like the only company that does that

I thought that earning premium currencies from in-game trading has gone extinct. This seems too good to be true by today's standards of mmo.
Looks almost like New World but more fantasy based.
Except for the lowass old tab targeting combat…
You don’t get armor or weapon drops after every kill which to me is more rewarding. Combat is decent even with auto attack because of all the abilities and customization you can make.
Guys, this game is literally a mobile game mmo but on console instead. Not saying it’s bad but that’s the game
I'm so excited for it to come out of early access
I'm assuming this is going to be a P2W game, since this is NCsoft.
No. Pretty much cosmetics.
Yes it is 😢
Sheep detected. This is p2w garbage, it literally failed in Korea. Game will die fast in NA. These zombies never learn with p2w cash shop Korean mmos 😂
this is honestly much more better than i thought it was on the surface
When the servers don't work perfectly the second they start up with a new load of 50k+ people joining almost all at once or over the course of a few hours, so everyone downvotes the game even though it's been out for a day.
Started good in Korea, but now its taking its path to getting pay to win garbage. Check out Kanons vids. He explains how p2w its going to get. Sadly, the game had potential🎉
Is this the new Lineage 3? I see a lot of things similar even some of the zones in the game are kinda straight taken from Lineage 2?
Thank God for Asia keeping women beautiful
any idea if its playable in SEA region ?
Just play Guild Wars 2. Enough of this amazon games/korean bull p2w "mmos".
So you grind stones and books to enhance items and skills? And I bet you can pay to improve that rate?
No.
No, you can't improve the rate... there is a chance to get more progress with a "critical success" but it's completely random and has nothing to do with payment... also unlike BDO or some bullshit like that the game doesn't have any backwards progress or failure to progress... the more you play the more you progress, plain and simple...
The game is fair... yes it does have some P2W but F2P players can be at endgame without spending a dime just fine... the only thing I would encourage you to buy is the battle pass which is only 10$ and it will help you get more enhancement materials... but ONLY THAT... and you can earn the lucent to buy the next battle passes for free 100%...
TRY THE GAME... if you like MMOs this is a must play game...
This looks like a really good and Diversified MMO, I'm def gonna try it out, I love the concept of how you can switch animals/beast based on the terrain and situation, and I do actually like the weapon features how it is basically your class it lets you have so much more options you can play 2 main weapons and play around with abilities and create your own style of gameplay, I feel like yes some combinations will be better then others but the options lets you learn your own style and master it that combo
Very nice video with all the info perfectly explain, as usual ;) I think I saw this game in my steam page, and was like, huh.... doesn't looks bad, yeah, I will play it from day 1 and see how it goes, the exploration looks good, but I'm a bit concern about the endgame, if its 100% pvp, or what, but the weapon skill system looks similar to guild wars, and I loved guild wars 1 PvP, so maybe I love the PVP in this one.... thenks for the video keep it up!
pvp game 80%
Looking at the level of detail in the surroundings and players, the sheer number of players being that it's an MMO, and the immense size of the world.... with no loading screens. And Starfield has three loading screens just to leave your ship. Way to go, Todd.
One thing I always liked about Guild Wars 2 was the fact that underwater wasn't a forbidden area with running out of air and what not. And the added sea life pet companions you could get. Because GW2 had some gorgeous underwater areas. Hopefully with the animal transformations this has something like that, too.
For some reason my game doesn’t really look like this on ps5 lol. It’s super zoomed out and you have the little recticle. Makes it look a lot different then the gameplay they show most of the time
This looks awesome I have a feeling that I am gonna lose a lot of life hours to this xD
Gives me WOW vibes while playing it! Definitely one of the better MMO’s I’ve played!
Ngl i been looking for a game like this something close to how isekai anime would be exploring,classes,guilds,dungeons and etc all the things that make up an isekai and good story modes and this just about covers it all
Your explanation alone gonna make me download it
Game is so much better than I was expecting
