I think its really odd when people complain about how long it takes to obtain power in an MMO. The faster they give it to you the longer ur gonna be waiting for the next content patch.
@@marllonluizsilva2556 Maybe MMO's arent for you then.
@@fuzzy-02 As a lost ark enjoyer. I think blue protocol is a nice change of pace. Reminds me of a faster paced FF11 and so does the world but more cartoonish

@@marllonluizsilva2556 genshin has the opposite problem where you either become a slave and do dailies or you don't progress
@@marllonluizsilva2556 And you're literally on Asmons channel saying nobody plays 12hrs a day get help. Asmon used to be the biggest Degen ever before becoming gigachad famous
Japanese MMOs are a lot more grind heavy than US MMOs due to how they were raised on games, a lot of FF and Dragons Quests and both rpgs are insanely grind heavy, it's what they enjoy ( ff14 not included ) I have a feeling a lot of the 'Tales Of' people will love this game and keep it alive let alone popular.
@@cyanmage1 It will be, the game is a Genshin MMO lol.
I've played every tales of game from namcobandai and I can tell you the gameplay and battle is not even remotely close to any of the tales game lol. Even the visuals and certain aspects look more like that online Ni no Kuni game.
because people enjoy doing simple, but fun things e.g. killing mobs
If the combat is fun, that should be the main thing. I don't care about fancy stories, it's an MMO, I will create my own story in my own head.
Most current western MMOs are just boring theme parks.
And yet jp players are complaining a lot
@@hyldrklein451 I was meaning in more of a visual style for the tales of, it looks visually similar to the likes tales of arise and tales of berseria, and the mobile game, the actual game play looks like every other mmo imo, mainly elder scolls online and Tera for me.
The timing on the WoW combat segment was perfect.
Right! And at that very same moment Asmon complains about “auto-attacking” in Blue Protocol! Like dude! You play WoW how are you upset at auto attacking in an MMORPG?
@@camfreed9829 this guy clearly never played wow
@@jgsource552 that was wow classic, at low level.
@@OnlyTidus you’re saying “I” never played WoW?? LMAO dude I played WoW back in the EARLY 2000’s. I probably played WoW when you were still riding in those electric toddler cars. I had all the top tier gear as a TANK, all the way up to burning crusade and was in one of the best guilds on my server. Beat it kid
@@camfreed9829 correct, since you think the autoattacks here are comparable, I've still got my account and my achievements dated.
The closest to this ever happening is energy or rage classes and its for a limited amount of time that you have downtime and you aren't spamming 1 button to do the attack. It's automatic, unlike this game where you literally have no abilities up and still have to spam
"Focus on having fun, exploring the world while you're playing, and when you stop having fun... stop playing."
This is such a big key point. People act like they are entitled to more because of sunk cost fallacy- all the time and energy put into your character being rendered meaningless if you decide to quit playing. At the end of the day if you had fun in the process, isn't that enough?
People also need to slow down and actually take time to appreciate the game instead of rushing through content just to get to higher levels and rewards. If slowing down is not an option, then they need to understand it's not the game's fault if you've spend 12h a day completing that patch's content. Honkai Star Rail is still on the 1.0 patch and you already had people complaining they had nothing to do 4 days after it's release
@@LshowKnows Well, thats true, Im sick of Early Acces crap games, worse if it is a gacha, if you want to release a game, at least put a Endgame mission, I dont want to wait 2-5 years for a final mission that I will complete in Auto.
@@magoconcancer99hoyoverse 2 main games rn are for a casual audience, I'm not even a casual gamer but enjoy genshin and of course wish there was more endgame, however I'm fully aware that they target a different audience and I will continue to enjoy the content whenever it comes out. I would just say that if you know a game caters to an audience and you aren't the audience it is weird to complain, it's like if I went to play a barbie game then said it's too girly for me
@@Zythroxes They are for a casual audience and at the same time they target a different audience?
wtf bro
@@Zythroxes You playin two sides and then expect not to be flatlined, bro
3:49 Perfect World Online, released way back in 2006. You could even pick up and carry another player around(bride crossing the threshold style) and if you bought a mount with a second seat, you could sit them in the second seat xD
This gives me a mox sensation like TERA and Genshin mixed together. Sadly the monetization and slow cut on the end game killed Tera. It was such a nice mix of combat with active combo, dodge-parry mechanic with body covering from tanks or others. And yeah sexy too. Sad to see Tera died, hope this is not the case.
Looks absolutely stunning! I'm blown away by the stylized graphics and the attention to detail in the world design. The trailer gave us just enough of a taste to leave me hungry for more. I can't wait to see what kind of classes and abilities we'll be able to play with. Knowing how much care and effort the developers are putting into this game has me feeling really optimistic about what's to come.
Guild Wars 2 also respects your time
By far
I have never played it. It’s like the only mmo I havent tried. Is it good?
@@nointro It's certainly become my favorite mmo and it's criminally underrated. I'm saying this after 16yrs of wow and 2k+ hrs of ff14. So many things it does better.
@@triple1 any examples? I don’t like ff14 despite everyone saying it’s great… I’m bored and it feels like I’m just teleporting around to have different conversations. No meaningful gameplay. And I played wow for about as long as you. Also tired of it.
@@nointro Not gonna speak much about wow and ff then because you already played them. FF14 has a special place for me but I get it, it's a very story focused game and gameplay is mostly focused on boss encounters later on.
Now about gw2 I'll try to keep it short and write about main points;
- There are many ways to get bis items, not just raids or mythic dungeons. Achivements, Open world dynamic events, mythic dungeons (fractals), different map currency vendors, crafting, raids, pvp, open world pvp (which is set in another continent basically (wvw pvp))
- Jumping puzzles can be insane, because the terrain can be much more complex and detailed compared to other mmos.
- Mounts (imagine dragonriding but, there are different type of mounts that have different movement abilities and speed that can help you traverse the world, do quests, find hidden stuff etc. )
- Achivement system is very deep and complicated and directly can contribute as gold or items depending on which ones. imagine trading post x 1000 in WoW. It's deeply tied with legendary crafting too.
- Combat feels GOOD, with mixture of dodge mechanics and tab targeting.
- The world feels alive full of people, wherever you go, even in old maps. Unlike Azeroth.
- No subscription (although I find myself spending more on unnecessary cosmetics now)
- Every activity you do is rewarding in some way, you don't feel like you've wasted your time. (unlike dailies in wow)
- Horizontal progression has become my favorite system. Your items will not get invalidated by another patch or expansion. And gearing full bis set is NOT casual at all :)
If you do decide to try it, just imagine the free base game is a tutorial and the real endgame starts with the expansions. There is a quality leap between the base game and expansions imo. Hope that helps.
Beta looks amazing. I'm excited to see where it goes.
i play another mmo that lets you hold hands and its was so OP that the devs had to remove some "functions", some skills share effect bewteen players and it was so OP( the healer was invisible if it hold hands with rogue class), the mmo i speak ir ragnarok mobile
If this game has cosmetics farming and a cosmetics shop i could see a loyal roleplay community forming around this game
Yes! Diverse and fun emotes and actions paired with a huge selection of cosmetics and fashion. This is something that I've felt has been missing with a lot of the "modern" games lately.
so pso2 new genesis? 😎
@@hyldrklein451 i mean guild wars 2 its not a new game but it has a ingame "fasion wars"
@@caquita402 the problem with pso2 ngs is, gameplay leans too heavy on the group gameplay too much that if you don’t have anyone to play with, there’s nothing to do. Which kinda defeats the purpose of having the diverse emotes and fashion.
@@joyboy6067 i feel like a lot of people didnt get into gw2 because it wasnt f2p on release.
As soon as Stoopz uploaded that video I knew there would be an Asmon react :D
Bamco knocking it out of the park with their projects sometimes...really glad they are staying consistent over the years
This seems like the 10th "finally an MMO that respects your time" video
An MMO that, truly, does not respect your time, but your money!
The best combat system I've ever experienced was in Wildstar. For me what ruins the fun in other MMOs is animation lock, global cooldowns, tab targeting, lack of telegraphing (and missing your target), base miss %, and over-reliance on UI elements (or addons) to maximize DPS.
nice telegraphs TERRIBLE white-damage in that the effects would literally chase you around until they hit you. an anemy would litterally swing a sword and if you dodged away before the animation completed a white "spark" would chase you around like a damned cartoon projectile until it landed the damage.
plus it only had 8 abilities so the combat felt so damned tedious once you found your preferred spec, i had similar issues with guild wars for the same reason as that was another 8-button game (ok 1, heal, dodge, 5 weapon 3 misc-class-spells 1 ult)
Then you should try playing dcuo it has the best combat system I've ever played. You can do what the games player base calls clipping. Which is essentially clipping the animations short for increased dps. Just as a sample look-up, gadgets might dps dcuo on youtube to sample the combat. You can also clip in support roles for faster healing or to negate more dmg as a tank. Certain powers can be clipped by other powers (you have to figure out what works for each powerset), trinkets clip also, or by using your weapon and clipping the weapons animation with powers. Each powerset works differently, so you need to figure out what works when it comes to dpses that use their powers, but for weapon dpses, there's a clear cut meta, which is kind of copy and paste which everyone uses. It has very good combat mechanics where you have to block certain attacks to survive, but be careful cause if you try to block the wrong type of attack, you can be block broken. You also have attacks you must dodge by rolling away. It's an old game that is supposed to be getting a graphical overhaul, but the combat keeps people coming back even to this day. Check it out. Tell me what you think.
Big aspect a lot of mmos do bad is not letting the world grow with you. Often you speed run each zone. This gets more apparent the longer a mmo is out. One thing that makes older mmos great is how much time you spent in each zone and growing with the map actually understanding it and appreciating it.
I domt know new world does a pretty decent job. I really don't want to leave each zone 😂
Imagine how much of the world of Everquest 1 is ignored after 15+ expansion packs, it's sad
I actually think that's an issue indirectly caused by Asmongold aah players, look good combat IS important but because so much energy is spend on making it, the rest of the game is ignored so it's not a surprise so many mmos players demand more end gamr content and rush through early game. People basically just want to play this GamePlay with something tough
This is, visually speaking, one of the best anime style games ever. I’ve never seen a game so perfectly capture the design nuances of anime in a video game.
It exactly look like genshin impact
@Mirouel it looks better than genshin imo. Somehow looks more crisp or something, I'm not sure how to explain it lol.
@@AcidxAnarchy dont lol me
@Mirouel lol but it does!
@@mirouel5253 Genshin looks like an anime JRPG, this looks like a playable 3-D anime world.
Also - lol!
Now i just need time that respects MMOs
The very and only MMO that I've felt like that was Guild Wars 2. It was a very odd game at beginning, but after you discover the huge Quality of Life mechanics, you can't go back.
Edit: AA Classic a 3.0 Private server is coming out by September, there’s a closed beta rn. Look forward to it bois
I just want to play an MMO that is as good as ArcheAge was in Alpha-3.0
ArcheAge was hands down the BEST MMO ever created up to this point. There’s a reason why it inspired Steven to make Ashes of Creation. It’s PVP 10/10, Naval System 10/10, World Bosses 10/10, Trade Pack system 10/10, Interesting Class System 10/10, Guilds being such a huge fun social part of the game 10/10, Gliders 😎 10/10.
ArcheAge literally would have been the next WoW if it wasn’t for Trion’s shitty management and monetization of the game.
After 3.0 the game became a hollow shell of its former glory.
Such a waste of potential..... 😢
I want pirating back so badly ;~;
Rift was good too IMO before the greed of trion. Rift was super fun before monetization back when they teamed up with RAPTR
@@jak2016 yeah rift was what archeage was to this man to me. i was a rank 6 rogue player with a mage alt and i lived for the pvp but i did my first raid which was greenscales blight and i loved it. i loved the pvp and pve.
@@bicyclesalesman1right ?!?! Being able to make gold while doing pvp ..shit was amazing
For me my biggest MMO disappointment was Wildstar. One of the only games I was super active in the betas cause I saw the vision. It just…. Maybe was a little too ambitious out of the gate? Cause it didn’t last long
Vindictus still has some of the best combat in any action based mmo I’ve played
The mobs attacking you when You didn't reminds me of FFXI mob trains! They wont leave you alone until you either exit the map or get into towns. I miss stuff like that, makes you being careful!
I honestly forgot about blue protocol till this popped up in my reccomended, might look back into it
The real problem is that people get burnt out on games before they even come out, and a long release window just exacerbates it
My case is Ashes of creation, game is not even out and I'm already so done with it.
@@BlobBlobkins that makes no sense
@@DrunkenPumpkin626 I'll try to explain. I'm following Ashes of creating news for 5 years. My youtube feed is full of devs vids, 5 years of talking and we don't even know if the game is good. And it will be 5 years more of empty talking. I'm burned out from every MMO video, I don't watch them, I don't believe them, 95% of current mmo's are done for the investors money, not gamers.
@@BlobBlobkins it's not coming out, ashes is a a scam
@@Justanobody8472 I hope it is, they are selling ingame items 5 years before the release lmao
I can see it ending up like PSO2 with strictly cosmetic
i have grinded the infinite hp and mana pot in bdo as well as the compass and leveled in cabal and martial heroes. gimme the grind!
I mean its what having a tank is in the game, they have aggro you dont, the best part about the tank is having aggro on many mobs while players dodge other mechanics!
My opinion on "Pay to win X Subscription" as Asmon said:
A subscription does give you more advantages and some convenience, may be considered P2W, but is kinda limited in a way that you get only a certain amount of "convenience" or P2W material in a month/week/year.
A true P2W system lets you keep shoving money into the game in return for more and more things, in a way that if you had infinite money you could go get everything in the game right here and now.
Asmongold: I want an MMO that respects your time.
Guild Wars 2: Hi.
Asmongold: NO.
Gw2: But I'm literally the guy in the pic
Never thought Klay Thompson would be telling about MMOs
Love watching these videos because it makes me wonder, "Just how did people talk and think when reading the reviews I wrote?!?" and, then I figure it was probably JUST like this, but only among friends as YT still wasn't a big thing back then. And, I love it. I'd love to write or record reviews and have people like Asmongold ripping me, or making constructive responses.
I played animes style mmo since i was a child and i enjoyed them so much, and even knowing that they are technically bad i still can have fun with them and that's why i agree with the final comment of "not taking the game too seriously". Blue Protocol is soooo much better than anything i could have imagined back then and while i think they should listen and fix complains, the game feels already so good and honestly i can't see them not make it a little p2w. I know that i don't care as much as other players because my progression will be slow anyways but unless you want to be top1 i dont know if this monetization really affects that much f2p players.
4:44 thats a DotA health bar huh
3:11 "good performance" instantly the pony tail at 5 FPS xD LMAO xD
Man I've been waiting for Blue Protocol for three years. Lets go!
this game gives me some gw2 vibes for some reason, I think it would go for that chill mmorpg route or I'm wrong?
@@its_foi He doesn't want to try Gw2 for some reason
Vanillabean is a WoW veteran and just reached the third expansion this week for Gw2. Fun to watch him play.
@@Ignazo1he probably doesn’t want to because it’s old.
@@icepenguin7278 WoW and FFXIV are even older than GW2, I don't think that's why he doesn't want to play it
@@Saint21558 I think I saw comments about his friends trying to push GW2 (to exhaustion) and then GW2 had many of the original WoW developers on it (mostly gone into individual projects currently but funny cuz they still check on the game as regular players currently).
Maybe it will happen like FFXIV, I think the video is still around about him roasting both games from what you can notice was his loyalty to WoW... at least he was open to try FFXIV.
as GW2 and Genshin player... I feel the haters make him stay away even if for some reason want to try, his regular viewers will cry out, I feel if he ever want to try them, he need to do it offline. (also to avoid stream-photobombing)
edit: Forgot to add, even to the sync dancing... yep BP sounds heavily GW2 inspired... and won't be surprised if someone in the developer team went to the ANET private showrooms for developers.
MMORPG games have always been about obtaining low RNG items and grinding for them. Asking them to increase RNG rates for high value/rare items is dumb tbh. And then people will complain there’s no endgame and that it’s too easy...
All in all. Solution. Increase RNG for low value quest items and keep RNG low for high value/rare items
to touch the subject of loading screens, its related to the fact that graphics are getting very expensive memory wise and texture streaming is causing issues like the ones we saw with The Last of Us' launch.
it was their smart way to deal with this issue, the same way old MMOs did in order to simulate an open world with way less powerful hardware. its just a matter of optimization and time until it gets improved. the way they approached it seems very modular and easy to change where the lines that divide the zones are and can eventually, with time, make loading screens fewer and faster.
Do we have some accessibilty options to set colorful skill icons for the action bar? The default setup is really not my forte as a hyperactive person with little to none attention span and everything looks the same to me.
Minor thing: I would like it if the auto sync when dancing in groups had randomized ranges of delay between group members so that it feels less robotic. Not important at all but still, little things like that just make for an overall better sense of polish.
Then it wouldn't be auto sync
A very slight desync to make it feel more like a bunch of random people got together to dance would be fun.
i'll never understand why mmos have never adopted an ARPG Loot system. If you make an MMO with a gear system with crafting like in PoE and action combat you have an absolute banger of an MMORPG
they... did not have the technology at the time
@@GameMa5Ter2O01 new world, destiny, hell even WoW could adopt this system if they really tried. Nobody seems to want to adopt it. Combine runescape, ARPG system + Modern MMO Technology. WIN

I don't get it. Is there really still a huge demographic of players that enjoy grinding their entire day everyday for that 0.000001% of progress that developers are still being incentivized to design their games this slow in progression?
Yea its called all of Asia. Go play any KR MMO and you will see what I mean, most JP ones as well outside FFXIV.
Lil bro didn't get to play Ragnarok online 😭 that's so sad
@@bullettime1116 to be fair we literally have a condition, it's why we're very much a minority in the mmo scene
@@JathraDH "outside of FFXIV"... I drifted away from FFXIV in part because of the gear treadmill. The tombstone system is a slightly less rigid daily task checklist on top of a weekly time gate... Near the end it felt little different to me than earning summons in a gotcha game. The daily tombstone bonuses should just be the normal rewards, it's already weekly capped anyway, don't make it a daily task... Yeah sure you could technically grind it out in one day as is, but a lot more time than doing the daily bonuses.
Before I stopped playing I was largely just buying gear off the MB even though it wasn't best in slot or even max ilvl and accidentally getting tombstones whenever I ran dungeons with friends rather than trying to cap them each week. If I get back into it again I'll probably try and finish leveling my crafter jobs and make my own gear rather than grinding tombstones. Seems potentially more satisfy than running 1 of 2 dungeons at random each day, every day just to tick off a daily bonus checkbox, and I could sell stuff or make stuff for friends, vs the tombstones grind being purely your own gear that can't be sold or benefit your friends.
Good point. The only kr mmo I've managed to reach "endgame" on was BDO and once I learned how the gearing progression there worked, I basically noped out of there as soon as I hit a hard wall on story quests that I could take. Learning through research that Lost Ark more or less ran with the same template instantly killed any interest I had in playing it but it did make me curious if every other kr mmos ALSO used the same philosophy of RNG upgrades.
i still havent played anything online better than Vindictus combat wise and its a 2010game.. Vindictus was so ahead of its time its a shame it didnt get the recognition. both gameplay and the loot system.
7:02
This is why tanks tend to be the most engaging role in mmos. Especially so in games with a holy trinity
Am i the only that LOVED BeS combat system? The interactive of the stun and all was really good, no one even do it on other games... miss that days
@@dumbodum Blade & Soul 👍
Blade and soul had the best combat in all mmo history. Unfortunately it had dogshit monetization, shit netcode which doesn't allow for proper raiding, and many other engine problems. Honestly, combat and character creation/graphics is the only reason that game could even live, despite all the dogshit around it.
Best combat in any mmo and its not even close playing KFM in that game was a dream come true
How the game going? I saw a lot of new classes and UE upgrade, and the story is keeping going... My last char was a Lyn Warlock, very funny shit was there, like the faction wars and the raids oh my God absolutely one of the best f2p mmo ever played in my fucking life dude
@@ragnabloodedge9772 Oh i haven't played it in years
I always find it interesting when people complain about how long or short it takes to progress in an mmo or I guess any live service like game. Worried that they will run out of content or something. Like bro just play a different game for the time being it will be okay, you'll be alright. When they add something new jump back in, complete it and come back later. People really want to play just one game their whole lives. No thanks lol.
@@BigWheel. Graphics are great but the grind to make progress is like a job. 3/10
@@BigWheel. can’t kill people and fight giant bosses kinda cringe
the gathering or mob farming for asian MMOs are the heart of it. That's why Ragnarok was so successful back in the day and until now people are still playing it. the gathering helps you with the grind and the difficulty of some mobs kind of "forced" you to rely on other players, therefore, making you socialize and interact with other people. that's why i didn't like some newer MMOs because you can just solo everything and everything gets to feel like a routine in some instances.
the downside of this is that in social communities, cliques are bound to be formed, it could be through guilds or permanent parties, and as a solo player, this can be a bit hard. especially when the guilds "require" you to be online almost 24/7, it's so annoying when i see guilds like that and they kick you for being inactive for just a few days.
i just hope that the progression and equipment farming won't have a big wall between old and new players. BDO is great, but this big wall of playtime is such a big problem for newer players. regardless of how much you pay or farm, older players will always have the edge and it's so hard to catch up especially when, like BDO, everything gets so dull (to me at least) after a long time. the guild wars are fun and it gives life to the game, but again, so much guilds kick you out after just a few days of you being offline.
i hope they implement a great pvp system just like how Ragnarok did it. they had solo pvp, royal rumbles, and the top player is always displayed in the website. BDO didn't have that much great pvp events and my old guild before we disbanded, we held pvp events in our guild a lot.
I'm still waiting on Odin Valhalla Rising to release hoping later this year
If anything is tradeable, then it would be a matter of how many people can you get to farm an area over and over, then trade the "rare" drop between all the guildies.
Idk about others but ive always wanted a fun, but functional grind guild.
Most of the time guilds like this are "hacker" guilds or guilds that exploit, because its easy and literally game changing.
While I'm not really a big fan of anime, I can recognize that the art style and general graphical polish is just stellar. I might have to try this one purely because it looks so damn crisp..
10:02 Anyone else remember killing 15 Zhevras just to get 1 Zhevra Hoof?
The problem with combat is that melee spams evade to get into attack range or to dodge. Action combat can be cool, but it has to be done right and making melee not be able to keep their chain up while the boss does his 10th "get away from me" attack within 10 seconds is not good design.
Asian MMO and "Respect your time" don't belong in the same sentence. The gacha predatory system in MMO is strong there.
there's hope, at least in this video no ssr gacha bs is mentioned yet
Blue protocol will be another game that will be fun for awhile until it becomes a pay2win slog. I enjoyed Lost Ark, and then it refused to let me play anymore, so I quit.
I will likely enjoy Blue Protocol, and then it will not allow me to play anymore and I will quit.

this game reminds me of Tera. while tera was bit stiffer in the dodging and attacking it was the game that ruined other mmorpg games for me, but what ruined Tera was limit on crafting you could only craft a certain limit a day or buy AP I think it was to refill the bar so you can craft or mine or any other type of gathering.
Same here, TERA's combat was top tier. The only caveat is that you could only really see it shine at max level, and pretty much everything besides combat was trash (the characters were cool though)

I've just seen - when comparing MMOs that are subscription based as opposed to F2P - that the botting issue isn't nearly as bad
even in more recent MMOs like Lost Ark economies get destroyed in 1-2 months once players nail down the grind patterns enough to automate them
the permanent solution would be likely initial game design related in having numerous human verification checks seamlessly interwoven into the gameplay
well, uh... this aged like milk, isnt it?
Wildstar had the best combat I've ever experienced in an MMO, and look what happened to that.
coz maybe only you and few thought its the best combat or maybe you did not experience much.. really hate Wildstar combat with the graphs on everything.
@@ging3815 I finished the game and all the late-game raids. Every game has telegraphs, wildstars were just clear and avoidable. Combat was so fluid and so was movement. They nailed the parkour.
"I'm kidding, not that, but I'll touch more on that later"..... I am SURE he will.
After playing Genshin I realized why I play MMOs then would quit after some time. I like the world exploration but not the interaction with other people. In short, I like open world games and not MMOs.
I personally like how Genshin manages to be f2p while making $4 billion usd annually via making the gacha characters so attractive that people would just pull for them even if the game only requires you 4 characters fully built to progress through the game (also 100% all the hardest content), since majority of the players love collecting characters regardless of whether they needed them for anything or not since B tier characters in the meta tier list is enough to beat the game; Genshin's an easy casual game where your 5* gear/artifact sets carry you more than owning a 5 unit.
BP has that progression paywall, players can progress exponentially faster than the rest of f2p because they can unlock advanced quest earlier than them, so it's definitely going to be p2w even if the devs expected it to be f2p.
That's what I also like about Genshin, nothing to force you to play everyday, just play the game when you have free time 👍
What he said at the end of the video is so true. Most people take MMOs too seriously and are nothing but small cry babies. 😁
Coming from Asmon, that's hilarious. Go watch any of his Warcraft content. Dude breeds a community of complainers
bruh its because we are sick of mmo pretending to be something its not. Bring back the hardcore mmo where you actually gotta grind months to get a "PIECE OF GEAR." Most mmos nowadays are cash grab pay to win and then dies after a year or two. Make mmos where freaking noobs are scared to venture out unless they meticulously plan stuff out and get correct gears or they would die. And please bring back death where you lose a week of experience after one death. Games of the past was massively fun because of its difficulty level. Now they cater to spoiled kids who want it easy in life. Give us that game where we have no life AGAIN!
@@bobjohnson6131 that won't happen if a game's not for the casuals it's basically abandoned and ignored (or simply not made) anymore. every time there's bene even a hint that a game may have some good group based play or need a level of organisation it's dumbed down to the point it becomes yet another WoW/diablo/Phantasy-Star-Online clone. Or worse a mobile/multiplatform game that end up ruining it's control scheme and UI to work on touchscreen/controller (e.g. elite dangerous, DC:UO).
Pretty sure there are over 400 hours of One Piece episodes- not including movies, games or the manga (which is uncensoree compared to the anime, which censors some crucial content for proper perspective of situations)
I hope this mmo is actually one large world and no instances. Like old school mmo if i wanted to go meet my high level friend I had to walk from where I was alll the way to where he was. Thats when teleporation isnt unlocked yet. And I heard towns are capped at like 400 players? Man it should have no cap so make more lively
i want a soulslike mmorpg
That would be dope
I’m so excited for this game, as a Genshin enjoyer. I hate ToF but I still play it occasionally because I want that open world. I’m “done” with FF14 (for now). I quit WoW a while ago. I need something to take my free time that is not a pay to win hell. I am on the verge of breaking my f2p. Just release in NA please :(
Isnt it a common thing as well where if your under leveled for an area the mobs will focus you?
If this gets full released def have to add it to my back log
meanwhile i want to try this game because it looks very similar to dragon nest in terms of gameplay
i believe not much people play that game before but that game was pretty good
Me who played a MMO that took 18 months to reach level 50 ,
Every one else : it’s too grinding to get to 50 in a few weeks 🙄
lmao, sad for you
It's mainly the western audience / playerbase that complains lol. Asian MMOs are more grindy but that is how the culture is.
@@skychen5476 asian mmo that region blocks most of asia sadge
@@ronank2432 Actually so true lol
the thing is if devs always listen to people the game gets worse, they have to filter to what they will listen, cause everyone know a lot of players will cry about something ridiculous cause they're bad as heck and dont know the basics and if they listen to that the game will get worse, cause the thing is who will be your playerbase and I mean your real playerbase is the real thing you need to know, otherwise you change the game to reach someone that will not give a lot of time to your game and the people that where gonna give a lot of time will leave cause the game doesnt fit their needs anymore
Tera had best loading screens when switching zones. They were invisible.
those social interaction mechanics are incentive enough to sink a year into the game assuming the P2W is capped
In my opinion any game with vertical progression that resets with new updates doesn't respect your time.
When comes to anime, if the details are hand drawn, it would definately takes up a huge chunck of disk space n pc performance to pull it off
12:55 best example I have ever heard
asmon looks much better short haired
@@SmokeWiseGanja oh I didn't know that. still looks far better than his regular look
they shouldn't reduce the cooldowns, they should make the skills more powerful to give them value for their cooldown so you can feel that the skill you used actually mattered.
Fuck no, long cooldows is one of the worst things any game can do.
@@Kyle81290 not at all, i'd rather 1-hit a boss doing massive damage for a 1-hour cooldown than spam-clicking skills that barely does any damage. wtf
besides, if you think 18s is too long, they could add chain-skills like they had in Tera, where using one skill reduces the cooldown and increases animation speed of another skill... then all of a sudden you have a minigame of mechanics to learn too. now that would be an interesting blend...
also the running animations should be more reworked as it stands now from what i have seen in the video it feels clunky or unsmooth i had the same issue with tower of fantasy when it dropped,something like genshins for example
“We’ll touch more on that later” - Ya we will, a lot more.
I'm super excited for BP can't wait I built a new PC to be able to play it with friends and meet new people :)
I was unaware of this MMO before seeing this video. I have now added it to my Wishlist. Thank you.
What is the name of the mmo?
@@zacharyfitterer5154 watch the video dude
@PaistyM well I am sorry I can't properly spell because of the cc just not telling which is which but ty for being really nice 😊
@@zacharyfitterer5154 Blue Protocol
My biggest concern is Amazon censoring stuff, changing things, race swapping characters, etc.
I’m not into anime looking games but I have to give it to blue protocol the world, enemies and classes look fun and fleshed out.
Mmo that respects ur time is like saying apple is an orange
I'd play WoW classic reforged in this style
It would be hit for few months for sure, the question can it maintained the number of player to not leaving after that?
Basically tera. It's super fun 1v1 but a bam with others when your range is pretty mid.
