I'll wait until Open Beta or maybe even launch to try it though. <br /><br />It certainly does sound more appealing than I found Blade & Soul, I really disliked the gearing system in B&S. Also the option of WASD movement is great, I'm a bit tired of mouse-look MMOs at the moment, I want my keyboard strafing...Telwynhttp://gamingsf.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-18819249577599789582017-01-23T09:28:35.038+00:002017-01-23T09:28:35.038+00:00Yes, I was wondering about "RO" as short...Yes, I was wondering about "RO" as shorthand, too. I didn't think of Ragnarok Online but I have covered Regnum Online (aka Realms Online) here before and might do again and I already used RO for that. Might have to think of something else for Revelation.<br /><br />I also need to keep reminding myself that Revelation Online is a Chinese MMO not a Korean one...Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-91882177204032228432017-01-23T07:33:49.523+00:002017-01-23T07:33:49.523+00:00I, on the other hand, got into the Chinese Open Be...I, on the other hand, got into the Chinese Open Beta of this. It was interesting, I went with the Black Scythe Lady class and you get wings at L30. It's a pretty world, well worth exploring, and maybe this release will let me know what the plot actually says :) I don't read a word of Chinese alas.<br /><br />Oh, your use of 'RO' as the initialisation keeps reminding me that Ragnarok Online got a mobile remake that's remarkably good (again, I'm in the Chinese Open Beta, but again I can't read anything) :)Lady Bhaalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10704636209322792074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-75784425186407781192017-01-22T23:28:33.843+00:002017-01-22T23:28:33.843+00:00I play them so you don't have to!I play them so you don't have to!Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-51996484412486984342017-01-22T23:27:11.166+00:002017-01-22T23:27:11.166+00:00Almost every Korean MMO I've played has the sa...Almost every Korean MMO I've played has the same storyline, pretty much. Your character is always an innocent student or junior in some organization; you always discover you have some secret power; there's always a young mentor and an older mentor, at least one of whom dies; there's always an older brother or sister or frenemy who teases you... it's like they work from a handbook. Black Desert is sort of an exception in that it's a lot looser and weirder but even there some of the tropes are in place. I bet it does reflect a particular type of anime but since I've only ever watched about three in my entire life I wouldn't know...<br /><br />I like the storytelling in general but often - mostly - the translation is so poor that whatever subtlety there may be in the original is lost. Either that or the translation is fluid and idiomatically sound but so surreal you suspect someone is having a laugh at the original writer's expense - Digimon Hunter is like that.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-92110863697264574532017-01-22T20:52:20.917+00:002017-01-22T20:52:20.917+00:00I think you made it sound pretty interesting, desp...I think you made it sound pretty interesting, despite the drawbacks you found. It doesn't sound quite like anything I've played.<br />The storylines sound as if they're aimed at a young audience, teens and maybe manga fans? It helps sometimes to know the intended audience. Then things make more sense.<br />The movement sounded much like Black Desert, which I found to be pretty jarring, so I was careful not to trigger it.Atherenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773969634802702992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-73075197614204738752017-01-22T19:11:23.043+00:002017-01-22T19:11:23.043+00:00"If you don't like this sort of thing tho...<i>"If you don't like this sort of thing though I wouldn't bother.
