    • @Idcenoughlmao
      @Idcenoughlmao Рік тому +22

      Bullshit, that's a mindset that's expected when you play most MMOs. But BDO's progression is so mind-numbingly boring and number oriented that I can't, in good faith, recommend this game to anyone. Do you want good pvp? Bdo has it in the form of AoS, and you don't need to mindlessly grind to enjoy it.

    Well made video sir and couldn't agree more. I would like to add that as mentioned with it being a marathon, it's okay to take breaks. It doesn't have to be the only thing you play and spend time on. Yes it impacts the speed of your progression but the devs have shown that they give helping hands all the time to help players with their progression. Be it J Hammers, crons, free t9 as of late lol. Just remember that it's a game, not a job.

    I remember playing BDO very, very carefully and optimizing every step that I took and no-lifing it pretty hard like leaving my PC on for 24 hours a day to squeeze an extra 20mil silver. It burned me out horribly. I came back last week and realized, none of it really matters so long as I don't demolish all of my gear and break down crying. They've done a better job now providing players with a functional baseline with the seasonal Tuvala and guaranteed PEN boss gears that it's much more relaxing to play BDO as the sandbox it was intended to be. Ofc, tap some Blackstar gear here and there and be sad that it failed, but hey, still have usable AP/DP sitting on those guaranteed gears :) Plus all of the extra QoL they've been introducing, reworking of farm spots so there's a bunch more variety now, seasons and gear copy letting us try new characters, it's just fun.

Definitely a fair shakedown of the game on where it started to its current state. For sure a marathon game and would highly recommend any player like you said looking to scratch that MMO itch even if its only for a couple months. Taking a hiatus and coming back to it is a well known thing players do for sure. Currently on a bit of a hiatus myself (casually playing) but still love watching the content and creators in the community. Bit winded of a comment but really do appreciate the hard work and effort you put into your BDO content as always man. I think the video will be very beneficial to new and returning players.

  • @The_Bink14

    Couldn't agree more man. I quit playing in December of 21 after pen after pen fail. I originally started the week of launch on Xbox, but my guild broke apart and quit playing after about 6 months to a year so I was all by myself for the rest of that time. I think I did a decent job keeping myself entertained for as long as possible. Leveling up a Ninja Valkyrie and sage to 61 and about 12 other characters to 55 to 60. But after failing for my pen 24 times with how long it took to grind up to get the chances for those swings.. It took its toll and finally broke my motivation.
    For no apparent reason, I decided to log back in a little over a week ago and holy crap I'm so glad I did. Just on the festa coupons alone and returning player rewards, I now have pen kzarka, pen dande, and made a pen muskans that I sold for 15b within 10 hours. I knocked out the old moon quests to reform my kutum up to IV and finally entered the 261k bracket.
    Then they dropped a free dream horse on my head. Holy crap what an upgrade over my t5 courser I've been riding since I first started.
    I'm back to watching hours of content and studying all I can. It really feels like that first year of playing the game when progression still came at a reasonable pace, and there was a good amount of stuff I didn't know about the game. I know this explosion of upgrades will slow down again eventually, especially when I'm going for black star and fallen God and whatnot, but with just the sheer amount of things to do now that aren't go here and grind for 10 to 12 hours.. I'm confident BDO is going to stay fun for the foreseeable future and I'm going to actively try to recruit some of my friends that in the past, even while I was still playing, I told to stay away.

  • @austinboyd5363
    @austinboyd5363 10 місяців тому +1

    Yes it's absolutely worth playing, it can be a bit overwhelming though especially for new players because it's item and storage system is more in depth than any other mmo I've played, granted there is a bit of a learning curve but once you get the hang of it it gets much easier.
    The combat itself reminds me of Tera but without the hitboxes displayed on the ground.
    As far as leveling your character you will need to balance slaying monsters, doing main & side quests, talking to literally every npc, and endless exploring, gathering, and crafting. The more knowledge you have the more perks and quests unlock.
    The game rewards you for meeting specific requirements though and I almost think leveling is too easy early game and needs some balancing to help slow people down to encourage people to explore slower. There is a lot to miss if you go too fast and then you will have to backtrack at some point in order to progress. And a lot of items become useless once you get your main character to a high enough level to farm high tier equipment. Most of the gear isn't level or class locked so you can load out level 1 characters with end game gear for a huge starting boost to your AP and DP.
    They have added a lot of quality of life features since beta, however some of the features could use some minor reworking.
    As someone who plays the mobile version there are some features that could, should in my opinion, be added in.
    1. Altars of memory for fast travel are available from the start of black desert mobile and are in most towns as well as near certain world bosses and dungeon there is no need for a horse even though you will still get one lol. Bdo has horses that can teleport, granted its slightly limited by the fact that you need to complete a questline to get it...
    2. Crafting, enhancing and gathering are easier on bdm compared to bdo because as long as you have the items for it you can put a near unlimited amount of upgrade materials into it to get your success rate up to max.
    3. Bdm you can start as an ascended character on any class from lvl 1.
    4. Your camp in bdm is a combination of the workshops, residency, and a variety of other quality of life things that are almost completely separated from each other in bdo.
    5. The pearl market in bdm is far more in depth and has more items to purchase. Granted its more expensive than bdo by almost double for some stuff the tradeoff is you get more items and there are more items available for silver or for milage than on console.
    7. Amity in bdm is connected to special quests and is easy to figure out, amity in bdo is is stupid and way too complicated at first.
    Regardless of which version you play they are both fun and definitely have some differences. Both have a steep learning curve and they don't explain things in a way that makes things easy to understand. The game doesnt tell you a lot... Though BDM has full auto which is sorta cool.
    Ninja in bdo and Sura in bdm are the same class but sura is less wiggly and doesn't use throwing weapons.

    As a casual player with over 9k hours into the game, i think this game is worth trying if you’re willing to spend more time in the game. P2W is only the naphart campsite, pets, fairies, maids will come to you through events as i got full t5 and t4 pets now without buying pets. I’m at 695 gear score now and i progressed mostly by grinding my silver and doing my jetina weeklies (my armors are entirely from jetina pens) however, i struggled a bit nowadays with no way to upgrade my gear beside getting a tet bde or pen accessory 😅.
    Overall, amazing game but a little harsh on the end game side.

    I bought it in 2016 and really didn't like the cash shop implication at the time despite appreciating the life skills emphasis which is why I was keyed in to begin with. The combat threw me for a loop at the time as well and I just didn't vibe with it.
    I started a Musa season character maybe 2 weeks ago, put about 50 hours in on that toon which I've leveled to 59 with PEN Tuvala gear so far and I like it. I will keep playing. I don't love it but I do like it. The new player experience is so incredibly overwhelming in its pacing and bloated items/mats that come without really clear and concise significance (or just being completely irrelevant) but once I hit that second monitor groove it did begin to make sense. There are admittedly far too many obscure mechanics to be a friendly and casual recommendation IMO but it feels much better, looks pretty good and does provide a TON of horizontal progression options which I appreciate.
    It's a 7/10 for me in the MMO sphere and I could see that going up with time. I'd recommend it but not to someone who doesn't like having to look up guides and wikis. It's still far too obtuse at times in terms of progression and outright confrontational at select moments (particularly for new players who hit the higher 50's without any knowledge of the MSQ ramp up).

      1bil a day is like an hour of grinding at decent gear (~293AP) at the elvia spots or gyfin. Full Tuvala and journals is 252AP/315DP so right after season (about a 2-3 week grind casually and getting used to the game) you can start grinding Centaurus, Kratuga, Thornwood, or Lower Sycraia and start making 400-600M+ an hour according to Garmoth.

    • @Mekose
      @Mekose Рік тому

      The game throws so much free shit at us and so many free attempts for gear that there's always a constant influx of enhanced gear from lucky players. I have dozens of free 100-150 failstacks and countless stacks from 40 to 80 that I never use because I don't like enhancing, but sometimes I'll gamble a tri or a tet accessory and it'll go and I'll sell it.
      The point is, you don't have to enhance to get YOUR gear. People already in full pen will gamble or use free crons or j-hammers to supply the market. The people in the DEEP end-game like biohack are enhancing dozens of TETs and PENs a day for profit because they already have fallen god and full pen accessories. I've been playing since launch and I haven't had to enhance a single piece of gear in like 4 years and the market always has PEN items, even fallen god and blackstars, sitting on the market.

      Speaking from personal experience - the new girl Succession Maegu (or Maeglue as I like to call her) is really chill to play. Longer animations, huge AoE nukes and ranged, on the lower end of APM, overall quite simple, so she should be very high ping-friendly.

    • @KingJerbear
      @KingJerbear Рік тому +1

      I think unless you are trying to be ultra competitive in high end PvP it shouldn't be any concern. High ping will certainly change the delay in which you are going to input your skill combinations but whatever class you play, as you get more comfortable with it you will figure out how to get your skills flowing smoothly together. So yeah basically just pick what looks cool to you!

    While all of this is true for PC and is a pretty good take from my favorite Ook, if you start this game on console because you don't want carpal tunnel from the PC controls you should be aware that console players only have about 80 percent of the experience PC currently has, with no roadmap for future progression.
    In addition, the 'negative progression' style enhancement system is absolutely brutal, and somehow feels more unfair on console. I once failed 17 pri crescent ring attempts, going from a 20 to a 38 stack. The math behind doing that is almost as rare as getting hit by lightning.

But in the perspective that if someone joins today and has 20k to drop on the game, not only are they heavily timegated and could possibly take maybe more than a year of pure buying, they still won’t reach anywhere near 700+ gs probably.
