I hears blade and soul has a very unique loot system check that out :

So no more I have too much gold and every one is forced to know the market value of the stuff they want to get.

Just a reminder, Blade & Soul launches January 19th. Who's planning on joining the NA server?

[BlubBlab]

I didn't forgot it but I play in the EU
Anyway the client can be downloaded already
EDIT: first pump it has game guard protecting it.

Eww. Game Guard? I feel like dumping this game already, and definitely would never put any money towards it solely from that.

When will these companies learn? Stop attaching malware to your games. Your users don't want it on their systems.

Well they don't want to goldsellers ruining their profit out of the first wave after a year they don't care. I was already suspecting it before it was the same cat and mouse game with DP and ArcheAge. NC soft starting to be a publisher in NA and Europe with managing the games directly for that they bought even Wildstar in NA they have also have Aion and they own Arena Net so Gild Wars too. This way they have higher profit and better feedback.

It is a relatively aggressive stance (similar aggressive like here where some people got sued for posting ways around anti-adblockers functions on some HP's)
Anyway we will see how the game is I don't worry about not been able to bot when I even don't need it. I also play GW2 with some RL buddies so I have nothing to worry.

I agree game-guard and such intrusive piggybacks are malware. I remove them and any game that requires them from my systems. I have been looking at using virtual pc for such games and keeping there trash off my main system. But for now I am just blacklisting such games.

intresting lil game, I made a character using the kitty pet. The game is not to bad to play.

[BlubBlab]

This game is seriously over runned the queue gets longer every day 790+ players before me an we have 22:00 +

[Administrator]

That happens to pretty much every MMO at launch. Within 2 weeks it should have little or no queues.

Well it seems it got better the fighting is nice and very interesting and PvE isn't so hard like in other Asien-MMO's but I found 2 things that bother me :

Originally it was said you can choose 3 ways to play the game or better said equip yourself pvp,pve and crafting.
In the end you don't have a choice other then do every 3 things simultaneously mainly for develop your equip with those stones(crafting) for which you then also needs stuff from pvp quests(tier 3) because those stones are in the AH to expensive for beginner.

The other thing is so far understood it the korea /JP version give you a choice of the path of the Holy light or Darkness in the story.
In the NA/EU version there is no choice you will go down the path of darkness (at least for the moment)

It would be really sad if we miss the Holy Light ending of Chapter 5 later
(spoilers)
