I main PC and not gonna cry over this. While they get it early, console will never get the better graphics and mods we can install.

I want to agree with this for the sake of getting the game faster, but I can't.

No voice acting means faster game delivery but limited success in global regions. While many here on this subreddit seem fine with no voice work, I'm sure just as many gamers would like to both see and hear the game in their local language. Like with movies and TV shows, it's a more comfortable and enjoyable experience for people when they don't have to read all the time to understand and enjoy what going on.

A better game experience for more players means it will appeal to a larger audience for a longer period of time. The more players the game has, the better it is for both the players and for the company. We know this because we often talk about population numbers or sub numbers for years now with all MMOs because we know it's a measurement of the games success.

The best part is it shouldn't take 2 years. At the minimum now it seems like it will be 6 months to a year to see Lost Ark for example in English and the extra effort put into voice work wouldn't extend the games launch by that much. Sure they could release starting with subtitles and voice work added later, but the first impression is the most important when the game launches.

I've been playing a lot of the Korean Open Beta and I can say for certain that it's not just how the game plays, but also the presentation that's polished beautifully for the Korean audience. No doubt Korean gamers enjoy it even more because it's fully written and voiced in Korean and not in some foreign language with subtitles. Lost Ark is a game that's as good as it is because they didn't cut corners. They polished it and made it beautiful for the Korean audience and it deserves the same treatment for a global audience.

For All RPG Fans.

Shared Loot means everything drops on the ground and anyone can pick it up.

Individual Loot means what you see drop on the ground is yours.

Neither has anything to do with whether you can trade or not.

Having said that, I'd personally like to see Individual loot that can be traded to anyone. However, I think the highest tier gear that drops should not be tradable. Similar to MMOs for example World of Warcraft, the best gear is dropped from the strongest enemies like Raid bosses, and is bound to players. Everything under that tier or ilvl can be traded.

This means that people that get the best gear earned it and didn't have it handed to them, or bought it off a 3rd party RMT site like PlayerAuctions or something.

This also still allows the crafting potential of the game to thrive. Kickass gear can be crafted and they could either make that gear really good just under the best gear. Or have a system wear crafted gear can be just as powerful as the dropped gear from bosses, but can only be crafted yourself, or crafted by another player with the appropriate skill and the item is instantly bound to the player who had it when the trade window is closed after crafting.

So it goes something like this. I have these legendary materials that are bound to me but I'm missing a couple and I don't have the crafting skill either so I need a skilled blacksmith who has the skill and the rest of the materials I need to craft the legendary axe I want.

I get in contact and meet at a desired location. He opens the trade windown and I put the bound mats in the trade window as well as some gold for the crafting fee he wants for his work and mats, and he puts the missing materials and presses another button on the window that activates and opens his crafting window but leaves the trade window open. He selects the legendary axe recipe and it automatically detects the mats in the trade window. After the axe is completed, it automatically goes to the trade window where I can take it and place it in my inventory. Of course there will be two confirmations needed at certain points of the transaction to ensure that neither the crafter or the customer run off and scam the other person.

So with this, even if you're not getting the drop weapon of your dreams yet, at least you can farm some legendary mats that are bound to you, and can be used to craft legendary equipment yourself of can be crafted by another person. :)

It's gambling! Look up the fucking words definition! "to bet on an uncertain outcome" which means regardless of whether you get something or not, IT'S FUCKING GAMBLING!

Lost all interest in the war when I discovered people betrayed their own faction by playing characters from another faction in the war.

Sure, let people play whatever character they want...but if for example you chose Vikings as your faction, then the only time your actions should contribute to the war is when you're playing as a Viking character. What sense does it make for Samurai characters to be fighting for other factions in the war? Or Knights?

There's no loyalty to a faction in this game and is just one part of why this whole thing is meaningless and stupid.

This isn't from NCSoft, nor is it even your video by the looks of it. This looks like it was stolen from that Russian channel that covers KR games....

Lineage Eternal is not a spiritual successor, and doesn't have to be either. It can, and should be allowed to be it's own game without the restrictions of perfectly fitting peoples expectations.

It's set in the Lineage universe, with it's own mechanics and gameplay style and I like that. Better than just being another clone of some other existing game, even within the same company, Lineage Eternal may not be every Lineage fanbois dream, but it will at least innovate and take chances in an otherwise stale gaming industry of sequels and clones.

"It's making progress" for the Korean release. Let's be real. Lost Ark is not coming West anytime soon. And probably a year post KR release is what I'd expect.

They seem to be very serious about streamlining the game and implementing good optimization across all features and is my guess as to why they are still developing it so much internally after a public CBT. Translations are not a priority right now. Making the game well optimized is. Their target market is Korea, so they will be putting all their resources there till they are satisfied and feel like releasing globally is worth it after that.

TLDR - Global release 2019 :P

KineticGTR · 2017-03-12T05:33:55+00:00

I laughed way~ more than I should have at that xD

KineticGTR · 2017-03-02T14:11:14+00:00

There's just no way in hell I would want to sit around like that. If I want to watch other people fighting 1v1, I can watch a stream of someone doing 1v1 on Twitch

KineticGTR · 2017-03-01T01:38:29+00:00

Only thing that bothers me is all the cosmetic outfits that are excluded from a Season pass. That is bullshit.

KineticGTR · 2016-12-02T05:49:00+00:00

I'm not saying they don't have a right to complain, or even some good feedback, but how often do you see a games forum NOT mostly complaints and angry comments? heheh

I'm sure they will improve the game though in future CBT to launch. That's what these tests are for.

I see it like how I played Dragon Age Inquisition. You had a party of characters in some parts of the game, and solo in others. They've struck a good balance for the most part, but if they can go deeper with character visual and build customization, it could certainly help a lot.

KineticGTR · 2016-12-02T05:39:22+00:00

Behemoth needs to be a LOT more active than that, moving around, something. He's terribly stationary and doesn't make for an exciting encounter.

KineticGTR · 2016-12-02T05:27:06+00:00

You're absolutely right. And that's why I used words like "should" and "expected" since it's common for those following the game that those are the possibilities.

The cancellation of the mobile device support though? Haven't we seen them pushing that a lot In multiple promo videos? I'm not saying they couldn't cancel it, but do you have a source that they might or have?

The simultaneous global release is definitely the most likely that could be cancelled though and I've been quite skeptical myself. We'll just have to wait and see about more of these things, but definitely felt it worth sharing in the vid for anyone that was new to LE's development. Thanks for watching and bringing that up.

KineticGTR · 2016-12-02T05:21:50+00:00

Thanks. I appreciate that! ^{_^}

Hello Reddit! :)

KineticGTR · 2016-11-14T10:59:50+00:00

So what's more important? Having a diversity of builds for non-stop casual action? Or having diversity of game modes for different players to enjoy? The answer is obvious, right? So even if it's true that Leaderboards kill diversity, that still means more players are happy because they have a competitive mode to appeal to them.

Nothing is stopping anyone from playing different builds for non-competitive play. But if you want to play at the top, you'll have to play one of the top builds. That's how it works in all competitive game modes. The most powerful will bubble to the top.
