Hey, hope you guys liked the video! If you want to check out the VOD it's archived from my Twitch stream, here on YouTube under my "Live" tab! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFTb9dt8KMg&ab_channel=Esfand
I wasnt enjoying the game at all. Couldnt figure out the questing, bobs were bugged, couldnt figure out crafting, didnt know where to go.
Until i invited a random bard who saved me, then slowly built a little team and we set off to a higher level zone, grinded for hours while chatting on discord and having a great time trading drops with eachother. That was fun.
Anyone paying $120 to have fun rather then helping dev test is just a dumass wasting $120.
its an alpha and needs work? shocker.
It's an alpha.. people comparing an unfinished game, to finished games, are total idiots.
Id say 5 years at the least. It took them 8 years to get to this. Consider 3 more years to get all the content they want and another 2 to polish it. They could release without doing any polishing but it will flop harder than Bless.
It took BDO 5 years to be developed, with some of that development being them creating a complete engine from scratch.
that guy at 5m is FUNNY made my day raging
This looks like every single new MMo thats out. There is no way that people are going to flock to this game and live in it like they do for Wow. It looks like new world meets final fantasy. It also just feels like a "guys" game. If developers want to win in the gaming industry, then you have to find a way to appeal the game to girls. If girls crowd your game, then all the boys will follow. Lots of girls play WoW and final fantasy. None play New World. Why? Because new world is a guys game. You have to design an atmosphere for girls to want to be in and somehow profit. Like OTK. Girls profit huge being in otk with its middle school, kids hitting puberty fan base and otk can profit huge these OFans girls because the boys will keep coming back to get a glimpse of the girls in their bikinis. Its a win win for both sides.
this game is f'd. get ready to get scammed you guys. the fact that it looks like every single korean mmo out rn is very very very bad. just another mmo using UE5 to make their isht mmo look pretty.
The game looks really promising, I'm especially liking the combat actions and healing animations. Graphics could be better but graphics are NOT what drive good MMO content. If they can really nail down the base building and dynamic world pvp aspects, I think they'll get a substantial player base. I've played every single MMO out there and none of them scratch that itch like classic wow pvp because the character movement is always janky and they don't flesh out the balance between class interactions.
Hopefully they can "borrow" from the best examples in the industry – WoW for combat, FF14 for storytelling, GW2 for exploration, etc
An alpha "needs work"? You don't say. 🙄
even with the pay wall, they still got DDOSed by needy nerds, i dont agree with it being payed, could be random key selection with keys for streamers, but thats another topic.
i have firm belief, that it will only take long because steven wants the game to release completed, and by completed i mean, having enough content that other mmos take years to put in form of expansions.
but the fact that the combat feels good to play is already a great indicator.
2-3 years makes it what 8-11 years of dev time? Lmao good god
God rays*
Elon Musk will make a city on Mars before AoC releases!
The hasan criticism video is so close I can taste it!
Lucky for yall we have pantheon soon most of it anyway
Love this video I would love to see more game opinion videos
To add, people are judging this game as if it's in an open beta state, to released state. We've got 4 yrs before we see the visual upgrades, systems fleshed out, etc. Right now, for what it is, it's great for an ALPHA
i love how hes running aruopnd a buggy horse for this lol
I love all these takes from content creators. That one asshat that rage quitted on stream because there are no quests in the game yet. Lol. Mouth breathers. The UI is scuffed. Well no shit, it’s not done. lol. Hahahaha
Just to let you know, the game is not a final product. That is not even the thing they are testing right now. So stupid fucking takes about the map and UI doesn’t help anything. Everyone knows it’s scuffed, because it’s not priority. People are hilarious.
Edit: good video and good takes. Thanks brotha.
So people paid 200 bucks for this?!
5:03 – Definition, why we can't have good MMORPG games. Toxic time!
Dude thinks he plays World of Warcraft. Somebody give him helping hand and tell him, that "reading" is useful skill in life. I hope players like him will stay away from this game and AoC will keep this face of sandbox – must put effort into – game. I'm having a blast with the game, because it's hard and being good at the game doesn't mean to have ten tons of addons. Yes, it will take time and yes, you have to read sometimes. Sometimes you have to look at NPC names. Reading and using memory; what a dissapointment of a game. Who uses skills like these nowadays?
This dumbass for sure not.
A.I. Should start making MMO’s easier and cheaper to produce.
NGL, i opened this video thinking this was just another shit take. Someone bashing on the game as if this is a released game.
Was VERY happy to see a balanced opinion with worried and concerns about the future and not what your looking at right now.
thank you for the breath of fresh air.
why was soda so angry that's crazy talk, a person should not be that angry about games
why does he have 3 mics? headset, mic boom, clip on mic LOL
That Soda clip was hilarious, and I think that's the outcome of things like Questie just spoon feeding everything to players so much that they've lost the ability to stop and think, contributing to the term Brainrot. I felt lost as well at first, but changing gears, thinking about where did I get that quest from, what does the vague wording potentially relate to, it actually caused some of the dead brain cells to come back to life. Servers have just been taken down due to DDoS though, so back to the brainrot den til next weekend.
It looks terrible, New World is even better lol
An alpha needs work? This dude is so insightful
Seen too many games start out with a plan and fail
Lookin at Destiny, diablo3-4, Dark and Darker.
No more of us being the lab rats, done with that. I want a game ready to go, tested, you know like back in the day. Sad this is how devs do business now, damn joke.
its an Alpha. Of course it needs work.
once human is better
Thanks for an actual opinion rather than just shouting to the moon about how this game is "a wowkiller" or "dogshit". Feel like that's all I've been seeing. Fanboys are ruining MMOs for the rest of us.
Thank you for a good video! Listening to lots of creators I like critiquing this game like it's a full release or it's been in development for so long it should be a full release has been driving me crazy. There is a lot to critique atm, but at least make it constructive! Hope to see more coverage from you on this game!
