BUT the game was effectively ruined by the inclusion of Jedi characters. after that, EVERYONE wanted to be a Jedi, and since Jedi don't use blasters, all the weapon crafters went out of business, and so on.

3:10 Bit late to comment on this, but several ancient KMMOs tend to implement some sort of password/PIN requirement when accessing your storage/inventory/whatever, to prevent tampering from other players when stepping afk in a PC bang. These sorts of preventative measures are almost always entirely unnecessary for the vast majority of an NA/EU playerbase, since PC cafes/bangs aren't anywhere near as popular or commonplace in those regions, yet they're often included when the game gets imported overseas due to sheer laziness from the publisher. (For example, the current-day Global client for Maplestory _still_ requires a PIN input every time you select a character, access your storage, adjust your V-Matrix, buy/sell Meso via the Meso Market, etc.) So yes, the devs of Lucent Heart actually thought people would be playing this thing out in public. Amazing.
From my experience, anything that try to add a dating like aspects while also trying to pull in a kid player base, usually have a lot of nasty people that use it.
I hear the sunken cost fallacy, but what about the sunken social fallacy? The fact that you don’t want to give up on a crap game because the relationships you build are strong and varied.
I feel like that's a lot less of an issue now than it was when this game was new, as most people who play MMOs nowadays can easily just use Discord to connect outside the game rather than relying on in-game social features
I get that, but I mean you guys could all move to another, better game... or write each other letters (yes, I do know that this most likely will show you how old I really am ;p) ... you guys could pretty much find another way to keep those friendships alive... but yeah, no I get what you mean!
reminds me of "perfect world", where it's possible for any male character to PICK UP any female character and carry her around! the female character DOES have to agree to it, fortunately.
@no or maybe yes but Morrowind glasses aren't actual glass as well? I do read somewhere that they mostly grow on volcanic or hot areas, but again still aren't glass.
Many of the games in the Ultima series have glass swords. They are single use magical weapons; the general principle is that the sword hits extremely hard, doing enough damage for a one shot kill on all but the toughest enemies, but it shatters into worthless bits after doing its grim duty. They are rare, and if available for purchase in shops, very expensive. This naturally caused me to hoard them and seldom if ever use them for their intended purpose. At high level, there are spells that are similarly powerful and act from a distance, so the glass swords tend not to be all that necessary anyway once the party is strong enough to go to the bad places where the big, mean monsters are found.
AHHH HE SAID IT! HE SAID THE THING ABOUT the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV that has a free trial, and includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 with no restrictions on playtime!

I think you can play it again on the Homecoming servers unless they closed down. I went there to get my fond memories back but it just wasn't the same as back then, so I quit again and stopped following the news. Sometimes it's better to just keep your memories as illusion of perfection and not test the truth of your sentiment years later.
@@nervsouly Homecoming (and so on, there are multiple servers now with different forks of the leaked code ) are still, technically pirated software, pirated software is bad, m'kay... Don't use pirated software, m'kay... (Homecoming specifically asked not to record or stream any gameplay.) That said, City still has that energy it did back then, at least for me. Revisiting all the golden oldies (Faultline, Mercedes Sheldon, ITF...) was something I always wanted to do.
@@nervsouly Homecoming is still alive and well and doing their own development for updates and new costume pieces, as are several others. We Have Cake, Rebirth, and several other all have their own branched variations of the game now, some servers run it as close to the "vanilla live" experience as possible, others have created new archetypes and costume pieces and powers and run customized setups with boosted xp just for the giggles of it. If you look around you can probably find a server that fits your play style and has a decent community. They're all unofficial and rogue and will forever be such despite a few people trying to talk a big game about negotiating with NcSoft to create official servers, so enjoy it while ya can (if you like there's even standalone versions to play singleplayer people have built you can find, but it loses a lot of the fun of all the madness other people bring to the game)

I wanted to recommend a Chinese browser MMO that literally plays itself to the point where it actually talks to NPCs & accepts quest without you, but for the life of me I cannot remember what it was called. It could be "Kingdom Rift" by R2Games.

Random comment not about the game: It's crazy how much that list has grown since your refusal to move from a single slide for the patreon list. It's absolutely mind blowing, to me, the amount of effort/funds people will put in to try and make someone do something. Like your content is great but it's also a genius tactic on your hand and I love to see it being used. I'm certain there's a decent sized chunk of those supporters who are just BUSTING AT THE BRIM to say they were the one that pushed you past your limits. They were the one that forced your hand. They made Josh Strife Hayes give in and do something he said he wouldn't do. Yet you strike me as a person who never relents and it keeps my interest piqued and ready to come back just to see how far it's gone. It really is just a treat for everyone. Bravo sir. As a side note, I also really dig the Worst MMO Ever? Series and your out of 10 ratings. Those also keep me coming back :)
Chinese and Japanese writing systems have whole syllables or words packed into one character; Korean at least combines a consonant and vowel into the space of one letter. They're both a lot more information-dense than English's janky implementation of the Roman alphabet. It's understandable that the UIs end up a bit undersized when they obviously aren't too worried about the quality of their localizations.
The funniest part is that I would have never seen or heard of these games had I not watched your channel. Because my BS alarm would go off like crazy if I found them myself.
As a hobbyist developer, here is some technical insights about some points you mentioned: 1:26 If this is 2010, they probably made the launcher to fit a 2010 monitor resolution and never updated it. I'm pretty sure the whole UI was built to fit smaller resolutions and no one bothered to update it, hence why it looks so small in-game. 8:41 This is how view distance works, actually. They increase the fog intensity the farther the thing is to have the transition between skybox and 3D mesh to be less jarring. What was happening is that at far render distance, the game was rendering all the terrain behind the mountains, which sounds stupider but it's how stuff works if you don't optimize with care. There's this technique called occlusion culling that stop stuff that's behind other stuff from rendering. This is usually done by the engine, but given it's 2010 I doubt they do it, the models are low poly and the textures are low definition for a reason. What? The music cycle being broken? No idea. The sound designer is probably kept in a basement, together with the VFX artist who made those purple flames mismatched with the feet. To their credits, they might have made stuff work back at launch, but then at some point, when they updated something (cash shop items, holiday events, new technologies) someone unwittingly messed these up and didn't knew.
In 2010 I was using a 2560x1440 monitor, I still use 1440p to this day (just 5120x1440 instead) designing for 1024x768 monitors was already stupid in 2010
I remember randomly installing this while browsing mmos on steam and I lasted like a week or so. I actually got to talk to one of the town ildlers, a super chill guy who invited me to his guild and we talked about the game briefly. Still, the actual gameplay was so damn boring I quit a few days after.
so ironically this was the MMO where I met my fiance almost 10 years ago and sometimes we go back and play it. Edit: Did notice Josh closed the window where you pick up skills after changing to warrior and I had a chuckle when he said they don't give you skills think he may have just been rapid clicking on quests

You need to start turning names vertical to fill in the space between the horizontal names and organizing the names by length. Just absolutely fill the patreon screen.
Yeah but at least in Skyrim its not the first thing you learn and it explains how it isn't the glass you think if you read the light armor forging book
@@SchlauSchafe it was a joke but thank you. I truly cant bring myself to play any of the modern final fantasy games. Maybe I'll try the newest one since the protagonist doesnt look like a k pop star.
That waterfall noise unlocked some weird distant memory of mine involving a website or game with chooseable sound-effects, including a waterfall noise. I have no idea what game or website it might've been, and I'm going insane. It wasn't just a stock sound-effects website because I was choosing them for a purpose.
The information cramming is a cultural thing. Chinese characters, which can be found in pre-hangul Korean (which most of these mmos come from), Japanese, and obviously the Chinese languages, are information dense. So apps, websites, etc from these countries made for these countries tend to be visually information dense as an aesthetic
Ooh I remember this game! The issues with the small UI and text might be because of your screen resolution, a lot of these older low-budget mmos have troubles dealing with high res in Windows 10. I'd figure it would look normal on a crappy old laptop, funnily enough. You'd have to change it in the properties tabs of the game's executable.
I just had the image of this in my head. Picture your old days playing FFXI - Remember all those times you were dead and shouting for a raise? Well, in this game, you stand by the roadside and beg people to come make out with you. You know, so you can continue your adventure as a mighty hero....
I’m really hoping he covers MapleStory at some point... a lot of the problems in these Eastern MMOs are especially prevalent there, the only difference is that MS came out way earlier
It's weird to think that old MapleStory had the same types of problemas as this type of game (e.g. being a "Potion-chugging" game, having low HP restore rate, being a slogfest, being punished for leveling up before updating your class, etc), but they eventually solved them and now have a plethora of other issues (Most of the maps being empty, ther enot being a reason to do PQ's anymore, nor most quests, and that the game only truly begins after level 200).
Happy and sad emotions for battle abilities is actually really immersive. So immersive, in fact, players used their immense amounts of sad IRL to distance themselves from this game.
oh, lucent heart...... the fondest memory of this game that i have is the fact i was in the beta for it, and i had a lot of fun talking to my fellow beta players. in retrospect it really wasn't the best or most interesting game though (especially since i fell out of playing it within the first month of its release, lol) but at least i can say i was in the beta for it
Suggestion regarding the name slides: Don't just organize them alphabetically, organize them by name size first, so you can have narrower columns take up less space then wider ones, instead of just doing it haphazardly. Granted would take more time, but would make them more legible lol
Wow.. Okay, yeah, this. You've finally hit the nail as to why I kept coming back to Josh's content in the last couple of weeks, first thinking "Oh, what's that? Okay, I'll watch it, not subscribe though", and then... just kept doing so, and not subscribing, because I was like, I *kinda* like the guy, but I dunno... am I going to stay interested enough beyond just watching a few videos? Then, I saw this comment, alright, I'm subscribing, because, yes, you're right.
I'm late... sorry. But I was thinking this the other day while watching one of Josh's videos on 40K. Just, MAD nostalgia from how he presented it, things he said, etc.
Yeah, Its actually really refreshing and great. I like that his critiques of the games are actual ones instead of just nitpicking everything, As well as naming all the positives and negatives without being overly generic about it. Very Totalbiscuit-like indeed Sure do miss him though, I grew up watching him
All of these bring back so many memories of hours spent playing games like FlyFF. Looking back now I’m so glad that I’ve moved on to so much better games.
These were the days where every new upcoming mmo was exciting. I remember hyping up for months for this back in 2010? or 2011. We even made a guild before the game launched. The game was ok back then but didn't really keep me hooked for that long
Yeah there was a period of time where there was a new low budget MMOs were seemingly coming every other week. Fun times during the late 2000s, early 2010s.
"This game has lovers emote tab" Ah, so they"re yabe "It has an emote with a girl standing on a boy's head" Ah so they're cultured "That says get stepped on by your queen, did you like it?" Ah so they're cringe.
I just started FFXIV, after Jesse Cox did a video on it a little while ago (and a whole bunch of other UA-cam channels before that). You don't need to tell me to get it anymore Universe!
I feel like there needs to be a distinction between game developers and game publishers. Suba didn't make Lucent Heart, they published it. I know publishers can be blamed for the cash shop, they typically can't be blamed for the world design though? I just think it would be good to add a "developed" or "designed by" line in your script.
Lol this game made me a bunch of friends that I still talk to today, and the girl cupid matched me with we still talk and play a bunch of different games together. I played this hardcore like 10 years ago.
God bless your heart for the FFXIV Free Trial meme, the whole community just embraced that shit. (Jokes aside, do you actually have a FC on Omega for the community? I'd gladly join, my kitty is there)
There are a lot of things I could put on my list of traits for the ideal partner. A penchant for really bad MMOs that look child friendly but have excessive adult content and monetization is not one of them. (edit: autocorrect correction correction. Thanks @DarthZ01)
"I would play the crap out of a MMO where I beat my enemies to death by summoning benches." This should not have made me laugh nearly as hard as it did.
I tried this game once and made the mistake of playing a healer. They clearly intend for the guys to all take knight and the girls to take the mage. My only 3 player interactions were male knights who after just randomly healing them and starting to run off was told that they're not (slurs for gay people) and insulted for healing them. The problem with a "dating mmo" is that everyone thinks that every small interaction is an attempt to have sex with them.
Always fun to watch you break the game down and analyze it in these videos. Kinda hoping one day you'll do an episode on the Eternal Lands - it's an old indie MMO I remember playing excessively with my friends back in school. Curious what you'd have to say about it.
That "dumbest feature ever" of an inventory 2nd password is very similar to the bank pin in runescape lol infact many player have asked for the ability to lock your inventory like your bank since their 2fa is a joke.... hmmmmm thonking face.
This MMORPG is for that one kid in high school who wears a wolf tail, growls at random passerby & runs with his arms stretched back yet for some reason he always has a date & is always biting them.
I heard what he said and was like, "whoa now, don't go bagging on The Rasmus!" Then again, I think it's been almost ten years since I last binged their music, but still...
As a developer that launcher looks hardcoded and they're dumping logs, so no real effort was spent there. The ui layout looks like some lazy translation/migration perhaps. The instant level up looks to be a cheap game stat check - how many people who installed the game actually played it for more than a minute. The rest of your points are excellent and rage-inducing as always. Well done.
I think a lot of foreign games are simply translated "as-is" and any graphical assets like window sizes aren't changed from the original, fitting, japanese ones. Often the japanese characters take far less space than western script and for some reason they either don't, or can't, change the font size. Cheap ports don't employ all-new graphics designers. Just translators and voice actors (maybe).
We need to start a go fund me for Josh to get a new pc since most of his gameplay footage is always low quality and laggy lol good video as always though mate
He's mentioned in previous videos that it's due to his recording software settings. I think its to save on space when recording footage - he plays some of MMO's for extensive amounts of time despite the short videos. I know for the later Otherlands videos and other MMO's he removed these limitations and you can see the footage in what seems to be 1080p at at least what looks to be 30 fps, maybe higher.
that password for inventory is probably because a lot of people in Asia still play in internet cafes and the last thing you want to find when you come back from toilet is your anime inventory empty
actually, Lucent Heart was marketed as a dating sim mmorpg. So that's why those features and tabs and whatnot are there. That was literally the purpose. If I remember correctly, you could dance with your date partner/spouse as a mini-game for buffs as well. Also, if I remember correctly, once you hit a certain point you were given some weird zodiac armor form that buffed your stats and whatnot. Was pretty cool at the time. Also, you got a level up box for every 5 levels that constantly gave you better gear. So you were supposed to be demolishing those wolves. Lol. of course, the level up boxes made crafting and whatnot 100% useless. In fact, you could craft like, 10 different weapons every crafting tier that all had the exact same stats. They just looked different. It was weird and pointless.
Let's not forget that the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV is not only a great game but also a better place to meet people and they generally won't step on you (unless you go to Limsa Lominsa, but what you do with cat/bunnygirls hopefully away from prying eyes is up to you) 😄 Good to see you're a fellow Chaos datacenter dweller, Josh ❤️
17:42 I heard a completely different line in my head than the one he used. "And the first thing they try to sell me is glass, because someone played Elder Scrolls."
"The meta is making out with someone before charging into battle" is one of the most anime things I've ever heard
reminds me of an old Star Wars themed game i read about where watching someone Dance would restore your health...and Dancing was a SKILL, which counted toward the limited number of skills any one character could learn!
other non-combat skills included weapon crafting. it had a pretty-well made player-run economy...

These sorts of preventative measures are almost always entirely unnecessary for the vast majority of an NA/EU playerbase, since PC cafes/bangs aren't anywhere near as popular or commonplace in those regions, yet they're often included when the game gets imported overseas due to sheer laziness from the publisher.
(For example, the current-day Global client for Maplestory _still_ requires a PIN input every time you select a character, access your storage, adjust your V-Matrix, buy/sell Meso via the Meso Market, etc.)
So yes, the devs of Lucent Heart actually thought people would be playing this thing out in public. Amazing.
I still wouldn't play this on my own home.
Did not know this! Thanks, very informative

Actually, Lucent Heart was released in 2008. Not 2016, that was only the year it was added to Steam.
At the time, the MMOs were all pretty much similar to each other. Wouldn't say they copied from one another at all.
From my experience, anything that try to add a dating like aspects while also trying to pull in a kid player base, usually have a lot of nasty people that use it.
Pretty upset that I didn't get to see the "step on me emote".

i felt like something interesting for social interaction lol.
I hear the sunken cost fallacy, but what about the sunken social fallacy? The fact that you don’t want to give up on a crap game because the relationships you build are strong and varied.
I think that's called peer pressure
That's also sunken cost. Just not monetary but social.
I feel like that's a lot less of an issue now than it was when this game was new, as most people who play MMOs nowadays can easily just use Discord to connect outside the game rather than relying on in-game social features
I believe it's "sunk-cost fallacy".
I get that, but I mean you guys could all move to another, better game... or write each other letters (yes, I do know that this most likely will show you how old I really am ;p) ... you guys could pretty much find another way to keep those friendships alive... but yeah, no I get what you mean!

Josh: mocks glass being in the blacksmithing
Me playing skyrim: *cries in glass weapons*
'Glass' in the Elder Scrolls is apparently just a colloquial name for Malachite. It's not actually supposed to be glass.
@no or maybe yes i need to replay that game
@no or maybe yes but Morrowind glasses aren't actual glass as well? I do read somewhere that they mostly grow on volcanic or hot areas, but again still aren't glass.
Not an MMO but Fire Emblem has glass weapons too.
Many of the games in the Ultima series have glass swords. They are single use magical weapons; the general principle is that the sword hits extremely hard, doing enough damage for a one shot kill on all but the toughest enemies, but it shatters into worthless bits after doing its grim duty. They are rare, and if available for purchase in shops, very expensive. This naturally caused me to hoard them and seldom if ever use them for their intended purpose. At high level, there are spells that are similarly powerful and act from a distance, so the glass swords tend not to be all that necessary anyway once the party is strong enough to go to the bad places where the big, mean monsters are found.

@@nervsouly Homecoming is still alive and well and doing their own development for updates and new costume pieces, as are several others. We Have Cake, Rebirth, and several other all have their own branched variations of the game now, some servers run it as close to the "vanilla live" experience as possible, others have created new archetypes and costume pieces and powers and run customized setups with boosted xp just for the giggles of it. If you look around you can probably find a server that fits your play style and has a decent community. They're all unofficial and rogue and will forever be such despite a few people trying to talk a big game about negotiating with NcSoft to create official servers, so enjoy it while ya can (if you like there's even standalone versions to play singleplayer people have built you can find, but it loses a lot of the fun of all the madness other people bring to the game)

Random comment not about the game: It's crazy how much that list has grown since your refusal to move from a single slide for the patreon list. It's absolutely mind blowing, to me, the amount of effort/funds people will put in to try and make someone do something. Like your content is great but it's also a genius tactic on your hand and I love to see it being used. I'm certain there's a decent sized chunk of those supporters who are just BUSTING AT THE BRIM to say they were the one that pushed you past your limits. They were the one that forced your hand. They made Josh Strife Hayes give in and do something he said he wouldn't do. Yet you strike me as a person who never relents and it keeps my interest piqued and ready to come back just to see how far it's gone. It really is just a treat for everyone. Bravo sir.

Binge watching this series means you get to watch Josh's patreon list expand and shrink to ridiculous proportions at the same time
Chinese and Japanese writing systems have whole syllables or words packed into one character; Korean at least combines a consonant and vowel into the space of one letter. They're both a lot more information-dense than English's janky implementation of the Roman alphabet. It's understandable that the UIs end up a bit undersized when they obviously aren't too worried about the quality of their localizations.
The funniest part is that I would have never seen or heard of these games had I not watched your channel.
Because my BS alarm would go off like crazy if I found them myself.
As a hobbyist developer, here is some technical insights about some points you mentioned:
1:26 If this is 2010, they probably made the launcher to fit a 2010 monitor resolution and never updated it. I'm pretty sure the whole UI was built to fit smaller resolutions and no one bothered to update it, hence why it looks so small in-game.
8:41 This is how view distance works, actually. They increase the fog intensity the farther the thing is to have the transition between skybox and 3D mesh to be less jarring. What was happening is that at far render distance, the game was rendering all the terrain behind the mountains, which sounds stupider but it's how stuff works if you don't optimize with care. There's this technique called occlusion culling that stop stuff that's behind other stuff from rendering. This is usually done by the engine, but given it's 2010 I doubt they do it, the models are low poly and the textures are low definition for a reason.
What? The music cycle being broken? No idea. The sound designer is probably kept in a basement, together with the VFX artist who made those purple flames mismatched with the feet. To their credits, they might have made stuff work back at launch, but then at some point, when they updated something (cash shop items, holiday events, new technologies) someone unwittingly messed these up and didn't knew.
In 2010 I was using a 2560x1440 monitor, I still use 1440p to this day (just 5120x1440 instead) designing for 1024x768 monitors was already stupid in 2010

That waterfall noise unlocked some weird distant memory of mine involving a website or game with chooseable sound-effects, including a waterfall noise. I have no idea what game or website it might've been, and I'm going insane. It wasn't just a stock sound-effects website because I was choosing them for a purpose.
The information cramming is a cultural thing. Chinese characters, which can be found in pre-hangul Korean (which most of these mmos come from), Japanese, and obviously the Chinese languages, are information dense. So apps, websites, etc from these countries made for these countries tend to be visually information dense as an aesthetic
That's a very interesting point.
Ooh I remember this game! The issues with the small UI and text might be because of your screen resolution, a lot of these older low-budget mmos have troubles dealing with high res in Windows 10. I'd figure it would look normal on a crappy old laptop, funnily enough. You'd have to change it in the properties tabs of the game's executable.
UI wise I imagine it has the issue of being designed for resolutions that these days are more commonly seen on watches...
I just had the image of this in my head. Picture your old days playing FFXI - Remember all those times you were dead and shouting for a raise? Well, in this game, you stand by the roadside and beg people to come make out with you. You know, so you can continue your adventure as a mighty hero....

I tried this game once and made the mistake of playing a healer. They clearly intend for the guys to all take knight and the girls to take the mage. My only 3 player interactions were male knights who after just randomly healing them and starting to run off was told that they're not (slurs for gay people) and insulted for healing them. The problem with a "dating mmo" is that everyone thinks that every small interaction is an attempt to have sex with them.

As a developer that launcher looks hardcoded and they're dumping logs, so no real effort was spent there. The ui layout looks like some lazy translation/migration perhaps.
The instant level up looks to be a cheap game stat check - how many people who installed the game actually played it for more than a minute.
The rest of your points are excellent and rage-inducing as always. Well done.

I think a lot of foreign games are simply translated "as-is" and any graphical assets like window sizes aren't changed from the original, fitting, japanese ones. Often the japanese characters take far less space than western script and for some reason they either don't, or can't, change the font size. Cheap ports don't employ all-new graphics designers. Just translators and voice actors (maybe).
Those dog/wolf mobs at the start look pretty nice though actually.

He's mentioned in previous videos that it's due to his recording software settings. I think its to save on space when recording footage - he plays some of MMO's for extensive amounts of time despite the short videos. I know for the later Otherlands videos and other MMO's he removed these limitations and you can see the footage in what seems to be 1080p at at least what looks to be 30 fps, maybe higher.

actually, Lucent Heart was marketed as a dating sim mmorpg. So that's why those features and tabs and whatnot are there. That was literally the purpose. If I remember correctly, you could dance with your date partner/spouse as a mini-game for buffs as well.
Also, if I remember correctly, once you hit a certain point you were given some weird zodiac armor form that buffed your stats and whatnot. Was pretty cool at the time. Also, you got a level up box for every 5 levels that constantly gave you better gear. So you were supposed to be demolishing those wolves. Lol. of course, the level up boxes made crafting and whatnot 100% useless. In fact, you could craft like, 10 different weapons every crafting tier that all had the exact same stats. They just looked different. It was weird and pointless.
Let's not forget that the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV is not only a great game but also a better place to meet people and they generally won't step on you (unless you go to Limsa Lominsa, but what you do with cat/bunnygirls hopefully away from prying eyes is up to you) 😄
