Why do all Asian MMOs have to have so many fucking things happening at once at any given time. So distracting.
I suppose it might be a cultural difference, their advertisements also seem overloaded for most western people
to distract you from none of those mechanics being particularly well fleshed out or optimized
It's not every KMMO that looks that way. By comparison, the recently announced DFO3D looks stylized in a nicer way https://youtu.be/1RG8Y254L5Q
Love how 40 seconds in you can see a player lagging out. Speaks volumes of performance for average gaming PCs. Other than that, Archeage 2 is looking good.
From my admittedly limited experience, I always got the impression Eastern MMOs tend to be more spectacle than substance.
When the main thing you do while playing is grind you need things to distract you from the monotony.
yeah, TERA runs like dogshit which sucks because the combat at 60 could be phenomenal
You've got a few games that strive for deep mechanics or following some trend other than the FFXI formula, like Mabinogi or Dungeon Fighter Online, but that describes the vast majority of them.
Most Eastern MMOs has no where else to go when it comes to gameplay innovaitons so the best they could do is buff up the graphics so they can say its something new I guess
What I wouldn't give for a K-MMO that isn't cursed. Always been a fan of the stupid over-the-top aesthetics, but like every last one seems to fail in similar ways. Even long before the whole mobile game and micro transaction craze in the west, these have been the most unashamed and unwavering in their desire to push mediocrity. It wouldn't be so bad if they weren't the only ones to still make new MMOs on the regular.
Looks lame.
eastern mmo's are all about aesthetics/cosmetics, massive pvp battles, and the technicalities that come with actually being a top tier player in those battles. A good east mmo will have good mechanics, good balance, no pay to win, no real huge grind, tons of other content, and always having new content. But you can't have all of these if you want a game to be profitable AND balanced for literally all players.
Oh shit, how did I miss this? I played the fuck out of the original DFO. Can't wait to see priest gameplay, that was my favorite thing. Too bad the game pissed me off too many times with ridiculous weapon durability (in the wrong direction) with repairs constantly sapping the FUCK out of your gold and resources, and zero character customization, not even visible armor, without dropping real money on gachapon style shit. Hoping this one won't have the same garbage because the gameplay in DFO was so fun I didn't even care about the grind. Too busy homerunning goblins with my massive cross.
this isn't TERA 2 :/
Let me guess, this one also has a race of lolis, which of course means there's also going to be degenerates who will dream about their, ahem, liquids.
