I wish they didn't do that because it instantly killed 90% of anons interest, even after I made the guide to making your own VPS which wouldn't get you banned, hardly anyone stayed, not that it would have mattered that much with how barren the game was at the start, everyone would have quit anyway.
Can't believe it's getting another chance.

If they didn't block anyone who wasn't in Japan, they could've profited more.
At least the chinks are smarter. If you jump through hoops to create an account, they don't ban you

Yeah, the chinkdevs even welcome and encourage you to use VPNs or whatever you need to play the game, they're also pretty friendly to foreigners in the game unlike japs who would instantly report you for speaking English.
Shouldn't be surprising in any case, you can't trust Bandai to do anything right.

Some updates for the rentry gearing guide I noticed. Modules seem to go to a combined 15 per module, so like a +10/+5, +9/+6, etc. also with master mode, gems have a chance to slot in with a higher stat bonus. The chances get worse with the most recent tier. So don't blow a ton of money that first week of master mode rerolling gems cause your just gonna do it the 2nd week again. Also also, after refining to 10 you start needing the 2nd tier blue orbs.

Is there animation canceling or super awesome tech like jump canceling or bunny hopping?
Anonymous No.535017918
>>535016880
haven't seen anything of that caliber yet, but there is some animation tech. Aerial style Wind Knight has a talent tree passive that makes one of their attacks generate a tornado on hit of a specific skill. That skill normally only hits once when used in the air as you slam back down. However, when used on the ground, it has a small hit as you jump up into the air prior to the slam down main hit. This makes a second tornado, perhaps unintentionally, and those tornadoes end up being 40% or higher of your overall damage when abused this way. So the trick is, use a specific other skill that forcibly lands you before using the main tornado generating skill. None of this is likely intentional, as the class already has a whole skill rotation and flow to its kit, but its a cool complication that can reward someone for paying attention to their animation state, buff timings, and cooldowns in order to tornadomaxx

Healer meta is healing specs only right now, the dps specs are unusable for on-level content and not really worth bothering with for overgeared content.
You can pretty easily swap between musician and oracle though, oracle is better for healing and musician is better for buffing.
If you want to do world bosses or whatever with more damage you can swap to ice mage, people only care about the skill books and shit for on-level dungeons and raids.

You can't queue for parties at endgame though, you have to use party finder.
Westerners get the wrong impression because they're playing in the middle of night in China when no one is playing, every mmo seems dead when you play at 5am server time.

The game is still healthy but has a tank shortage problem, don't know if culture problem or what, but almost nobody wants to play a tank there, which is why it can take some time to get a party as a DPS.

Fishing (not a lifeskill, is its own thing)
Farm for cosmetics, titles, achievements
Dailies to get bound rose orbs to buy whatever, progression stuff or costumes
Farm chests (kind of a waste of time but I guess if you like exploring the map, there's tons of them, gives small amount of bound rose orbs each)
Housing stuff, pretty limited right now but will be expanded
Farm every mob / miniboss / worldboss for the bestiary points & imagine materials
Season pass / armband leveling, the armband is basically a flex that shows how much of the achievements you've completed
Guild stuff, guilds have their own currency and rewards for doing things
Daily scheduled "raids", different from actual raids, very easy and gives bound rose orbs, it's like PSO2 urgent quests but the current ones are pretty shit
Help friends / randoms for friendship points / level
There was a roguelike mode event which is said to become a permanent feature in s2
Plenty of random casual events/minigames to farm event currency for event shops
Tower which is basically just mobbing/buffed up world bosses to get imagine materials, another weekly content
Lots of little one-time things like the role trials and sidequests
Hang out in town if you don't want to do anything, people usually gather in the tavern you start the game in to show off their characters and dance and whatever, camera mode is pretty fun to play with too

Most of the content in the game will give you bound rose orbs which is nice since you can get some costumes with it, pay for character edits and a bunch of other stuff.
If you don't like raids or pushing high difficulties in dungeons, you don't really have to do it, but if you want to do it without stress you can simply wait a week or two and overgear it.

Whoa. It looks like there is plenty of stuff to do. I hope they're as fun as you made them sound.
It's crazy for a new MMO to have plenty of stuff. Usually, they add over the years, like the most played MMOs do. They have years of ongoing development, after all.

There is a lot, whether or not people find it fun is subjective I guess, a lot of ties into the gear progression and I would say gear progression is the biggest timesink in the game.
Some people may find a lot of these things to be chore-like due to how they have some kind of currency attached to it, I personally think this is one of the strongest MMO releases in a long time and it's really only held back by some of the monetization being too expensive and combat being just okay, and even that is fine as long as the dungeons and raid mechanics are enjoyable.
Anonymous No.535177125 >>535177365

Also I think the reason it has a good amount for a new release is the amount of assets they were able to use from the original, and why the content pacing should be good for a long while, they still have a lot that hasn't been used.

There are few MMOs that can get away with gear not being the main aspect of the game. Even less so in China and Asian countries, afaik. I guess the devs tried to play it safe.
>Some people may find a lot of these things to be chore-like due to how they have some kind of currency attached to it
I can see that. If you need the currency but dislike that content, it becomes a chore. At the same time, if there isn't a reward, most players won't do said content.
>the monetization being too expensive
Imagin gacha aside, as long as there is the option to buy some costumes directly from the shop, I'm fine with costume gacha. Let the whales flex using fashion.
>combat being just okay
Combat has to be enjoyable, but I don't see it as the main part of an MMO. Sure, it must be good, but combat isn't everything.

I do agree, but it still kinda sucks if you really like a costume but it would cost you $200+ to get it.

>but combat isn't everything
Yep, I'm fine with the combat the game has, it's not amazing, simply "good enough", but everything else makes up for it for me, while other games with amazing combat are ruined by their terrible systems and lack of other content.

Someone has to pay for the server. Jokes aside, if the costumes aren't more beautiful, cooler, and/or have more effects than ordinary costumes, the whales can't flex. I believe that with time we are going to get more non-gacha outfits for every type of taste. However, the whales (and maybe leviathans in the future) still need their exclusivity.
We all know they bring a lot of money. We can't dismiss this. And the devs aren't retarded enough to not want to get the whales' money.
>simply "good enough"
I don't know anything about SR combat. I heard it's half action, half tab-target. This is good enough for me to have fun.

It's like Genshin or WuWa had a baby with a tab target MMO, uses their auto targeting system, but also uses typical tab target class mechanics like stack and gauge management, not as many buttons as a tab target game but no GCD so the pace is faster.

You don't need to do anything, just look at or walk near a mob and you're automatically targeting it no matter what, you can use a button to lock it onto one enemy so it won't change, maybe some other settings but I haven't tried them.

>Is it like Tarisland? It only has six buttons, irc.
Basic attack, a subclass skill, 4 skills you choose from (but it's not much of a choice due to your subclass talents basically choosing for you), an ultimate skill, and your imagines.
Basically 6 buttons you'll use frequently and 3 more you'll use infrequently, haven't played Tarisland so idk how it compares.

Almost the same thing. There you have:
2 generic skills you choose from many. You must change them accordingly with the dungeon/raid/PvP.
1 Ultimate buff (needs to build gauge)
1 Buff
1 Buff or skill (Depends on the class)
3 Skills

But alternating between these 8, you usually use 5~6 skills. It looks like SR is the same, but faster

Can't really give an exact price because it'll vary based on which packs you buy, the current rates for the currency exchange, whether or not prices will be the same as CN or not (pretty sure it'll be more expensive), whether or not they change how much it takes to get them etc.
But in CN right now it costs $200-$300, reason being you need to get the base costume from gacha or market first, then buy the "better/different" version from the ticket shop for 5 tickets, the tickets come from gacha but you're probably better off buying them from the market which would cost you ~$30 each, so if you used currency exchange for everything it would be $~250
There are also mounts that cost over $1000 which is pretty funny.

It's not a great targeting system for ranged combat when there's several enemies, you can manually aim some aoe skills though, the mage has one that sucks enemies in so you can do that and aoe them, in dungeons enemies usually get pulled together so you don't really need to target a specific one, every skill can aoe mobs more or less.
I don't play ranged classes so I don't know how much of an issue it is really.

>>535183771
I'm not actually sure, the gacha gets rotated out but I haven't seen anything about the shop, I would assume it stays since it's a generic currency used to upgrade it, not really any reason to get rid of it, will know in a few days when the gacha changes.

>nobody gets any keys on the 15th
>they get confused and flood discord to ask about it
>there's no news about it, nobody said anything, you had to find a specific message from one of the unpaid mods saying they're not doing shit until the 18th now
>they still haven't given a concrete date, just a calender teaser with a date that lines up with their irl event leading to even more confusion with people unsure about whether that is the CBT date or not
I don't understand the silence, what's the point? Everything could be solved if they just did @everyone Plan changed, keys being sent on the 18th-20th instead, also CBT starts on the xth.
Instead they set up a bot to spam the chat whenever someone says "key", what is this retardation?

Seen several people saying they already took the weekend off. We don't have a cbt date what did they expect here
>>535370373
you're right. no clue but it's also very funny. I'm thinking they're genuinely retarded and actually manually sifting through entries (!!) as of the 15th and didn't realize how long it would take. Good omen!!

It feels like the one mod who does anything is trying to tard wrangle an entire publishing company by himself, whenever there's any news it comes through him

Are outfits 100% pay-gated or can you get them by trading or do they give out currency to roll the gachas(?) sometimes?

Depends on the outfits. Some you can get for cheap using resources gained in game, one outfit they gave for free as compensation for server instability, others are direct pay with premium currency, some are gacha and others cost generic tickets that come from gacha. The gacha outfits and tickets can be bought and sold on the auction house for in game currency.

You can get 3 costume gacha rolls a week for free, not a lot but I guess you'll eventually get something from it.
Some are free, from events, drops, ingame currencies, or through achieving things like life skill levels or other random things like the armband system.
Season pass gives a costume if you buy it.
There's a few costumes you can get with bound rose orbs, which makes them effectively free if you choose to spend them on that.
Rest of the costumes are either bought directly at varying prices, or through gacha shit.
The costumes and tickets you get through gacha can be bought through the market. (Except the purple rarity ones which can make them harder to get than the main items lmao)

NTA, but if I understood correctly, if you want a purple cosmetic, you must pull in that gacha banner, right?

Yes and the pool is bloated so the chance of getting the exact one you want is very unlikely, they need to make them tradeable too.

I can't imagine this publisher doing anything based on how little effort they've shown in general

Unless they use the remains amazon version because it was already mostly translated.

The game is so fundamentally different from that Amazon version that basically nothing AGS did is usable. The entire story and cast of OGBP is wiped from the game. There isn't anything to use

Not gonna try to keep the thread up anymore since sign-ups closed, if it dies I'll remake it when they give us the date or shortly before server opens.
/vm/ thread is linked in op, can chill over there until then.

What was the point of the vg thread then? Anyways I'm waiting for beta to actually talk about the game so it's my fault it's ded sorry

To get more people to sign up before it closed, we already know how it goes with beta tests, everyone starts pouring in after the test goes live and starts begging for keys because they missed the sign up window.
Everyone is waiting now and it doesn't matter if the thread goes under for a few days.
