Got a 7 day trial, so far it feels very clunky in movement and combat. Lots of things can be automatic, like running to a quest zone which is nice. Apparently for endgame its pretty much needed to pay for the convenience of a pet to loot for you, so b2p with some possibly needed cash shop stuff on top.

Its ok, i cant say im enjoying it too much, not like i did archeage.

most negative stuff from the few reviews I've seen is just people complaining about lack of themepark features.

If anyone has a trial code, i'd like to give it a go  :lol:

Eh there's more negative stuff than that. Gear dependence in PvP, the Karma bullshit system which pretty much severely restricts open PvP, very little to do endgame apart from guild wars and more.

I got a 7 day pass as well, gonna see if I like it enough in these days to warrant a purchase.

It is neat enough to drop 30 bucks on it. Really the only way to tell is hit level 50 and start pvping.

Looting is very bothersome, so getting pets later on when grinding is a massive convenience, so expect to drop more than the 30€ price. Because pets loot for you. And currently all the grinding spots are completely filled with people, so expect fighting for mobs, 40 players in a zone with 20 mobs you need is common now.

I've been mostly fishing, managing my workers and collecting resources. So far I've had a blast.
Combat is alright, but I think the best part of the game is the world and the trading and manufacturing stuff.

Also really like how houses work.

Fishing is cool, im going to try to hit the leaderboards of it. And if i decide to continue of off my 7day trial ill probably set a goal for a fishing boat.

I'm saving up money for it and the Ninja gear, I'm not going to worry about farming levels at this point.

How to get trial?

You gotta get one of the preorder people to give you a 7-day guest pass.


For some reason I'm just not feeling the combat in this game. This is the third class I'm playing now, a Sorcerer (I've played others in RU Beta and EU Alpha) but there's something lacking in combat, even though it's action based... I kinda don't feel the weight/impact of the shit I perform, might as well be doing any move shit gon eventually die anyway. Maybe it's missing damage numbers for me.

Also, the screen is cluttered with interface as fuck. Circles and arrows and icons and labels everywhere. Couple that with the absurdly overdone special effects for your abilities and you end up not seeing what the fuck you're doing. And this is after I've disabled screen shaking and character/enemy model flashing in different colors everytime you do something.

Your character having mostly the same look throughout the entire game is a cheap move on their part as well. The gear that you get outside of cash shop is pretty much all the same and the ones that you get in the cash shop are expensive as fuck and not really that great looking.

Think this is one of the games that if I do end up purchasing, I'm gonna play for the other aspects (crafting, trading, fishing etc) more than combat and PvP.

Vibe there are craftable costumes and some craftable sets that look different than dropped gear.

Sadly there's more variety on the female gear than there is on the male.

There's a translation mistake, sorry there's no craftable costumes (They are listed as costumes so you would think they where but nope :/).

There are however visually different equipment from crafting.

I also heard that some npc can sell visually different weapons and armor if you raise your reputation with them. Not sure on that one yet, I started today on a 7 day trial as I'm broke.

Fishing boat on its way, mass hiring workers, and purchasing all materials cause lazy and want it done quick. Maybe it'll be done by tomorrow.

Will probably buy the game, it has peaked my interest now.
