Not the same Chris Perkins. I would love to see what kind of MMO that guy would make tho. A new MMO built from tabletop RPG foundations instead of the last 15 years of WoW derivative shit might be interesting.

Those outlaw rapiers are what got me to resub before the pre-patch, one of the best weapon models in the game imo and the only tower mog I wanted for the classes I play. Not many rapiers in WoW (I was using the gnomeregan executioner's leg before) and I agree, they are just ornate / fancy enough...

that video is actually looking pretty good for what they are advertising as a 'true beta' - not sure if that archer PC is rubberbanding or if they just haven't implemented a dodgeroll animation yet. performance looks really solid if the netcode is there, this game could be a lot of fun

Sounds like it's time for a new Lost Vikings game boys!

players on the subreddit and steam forums are reporting refunds over 2hrs denied since this afternoon - the grace period might be over at this point. Could be these guys aren't writing anything reasonable in the request though.

It is 100% true. Zerk is the only class with the feature currently enabled. The rest of the classes didn't 'feel fun' with the feature so they are taking time to fix it. The 'action combat' isn't even action combat in any true sense - it's tab-target with permanent mouselook and mousing over...

after seeing Basel Canyon (the much hyped open-world pvp zone with contested elites) completely empty, no arenas/battlegrounds implemented yet, being asked to pay blessbux to teleport to dungeon after accepting a queue, utterly terrible performance in a small-scale pvp encounter (7-9 people...

The combos end up working a lot better once you unlock more starting skills and the other stances - you can swap around mid-combat and the extra starters make sure you don't end up standing around doing nothing. I do still see a lot of paladins complaining about mana in chat though.

most popular server is Tanara (or maybe Lilyanthes at this point) but both are locked for character creation atm

There are quest hubs and dungeons, but also 'hunt quests' that are basically grind 50 mobs in an area for a small xp reward. I've been questing and knocking out hunt quests as I go and it's been fairly quick. However, I'm hearing that dungeon spamming is faster xp and I'm 90% sure that endgame...

I think the combat is pretty fun tbh, coming from BDO I didn't have very high hopes for it but the combo chains are a nice twist on your standard tab-target fare. Granted I've only gotten to level 15 so far, who knows how it will play in endgame dungeons or PVP - I could see it being pretty...

This is my main concern as well. I don't see the game having legs. Game's like 5-6 years old on UE3, cost an assload of money to make that's not been recouped, no significant expansions, failure in other regions, still incredibly poorly optimized (probably something to do with Unreal Engine 3)...

The peace dove (pvp immunity item) isn't as retarded as it seems. You can't heal or assist other players or attack Elite mobs, the main open-world contested resource, with it activated. It seems to be mostly for people who are getting griefed and want to get away or finish a questline or...

Well, Kakao added 15-day Book of Combat (the 24hr massive xp buff book) and Kamasylve's Blessing (+energy regen and item drops) to the pearl shop for 1,250. That brings the monthly pearl cost of maintaining a competitive account to 6500 pearls/30 days with the value pack, or many many hours of...

The real overt p2w in BDO centers around Artisan Memories, not directly selling pearl items for quick silver. Memory frags are permanently sold out (though you can easily buy scrolls and run them for mem frag drops, it's soulcrushingly boring) and probably one of, if not the most important...
