Thanks for sharing!
That auto-run/pathing reminds me of Jade Dynasty, though it looks better executed. (Or at least I hope so, since on JD you got stuck all the time when using the feature
)

very interested in this
dont be too hyped kids and better watch this if you cant test game by yourself atm
What makes meme laugh about this is it's another western review. Fact is it's an Asian mmo that was made for an Asian market. If it never releases in the West meaning US then who cares. The devs has a vast mmo player base in Asia and Russian to pull. They really don't need NA or Europe for that matter.You might want to actually read up on some of the actual reviews from US & European gamers. The reviews the game is getting are less then stellar, far cry from incredible....
As far as the game being made for and marketed toward Asia & Russia, this is true. But if you want to sell the game and have it be popular in the US and Europe. As a company they need to realize that things will have to change drastically before it's ported over here. If they are not willing to make drastic changes, making the game more acceptable for western audiences, they are better off saving their money and keeping it in Asia.
No, "westernizing" a game does not mean just localizing the language and changing the cash shop around a little either...
Well, it looks incredible but from what I heard so far can't the same be said about actually playing it...
Then again, havn't had the chance to try it myself yet.
What exactly is this "westernizing" nonsense? All they need to do is translate the language to English and you either play their games or you don't. It's not like we have a bevy of "western" companies developing MMORPGs in the US and Europe now days. Truth be told, they don't need our money. There are many Asian games that are not being ported over here as it is because of these asinine "western" demands, and the one's that do eventually make it over here are getting here 3-5 years after being released in Asia. These so-called "western" gamers you are referring to better get off that high horse they're riding on, or stay on them and just not play these Asian games. There are plenty of us who have no problem with Asian games and don't mind playing them exactly as they are designed and released in Asia.

Some things he said were non-issues but not having dungeons is disappointing. or a lot of world bosses. Not having challenge is a bit disappointing.
He did say there was a lot of pvp so that works but he then says it's broken. I'll have to actually hear as to the "why".
Still listening and he keeps going on about "end game". Obviously saying "there is no end game".
That is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. Not having challenge or group pve activities IS a concern.

This game is ridiculously epic. Revolutionary in so many ways. It is heads and shoulders above anything out in the market right now. Anyone saying otherwise is just pushing a personal agenda.
If it was "nonsense" it would not take them 3-5 years to release here now would it?
Kind of ridiculous to spout nonsense when you put the truth in your own post:P If it was just localize the games we would get these games at same time or shortly after they launch. But it is not just that...it takes game changes, and lots of them sometimes, to be released here in "West" Just a fact.
The markets are vastly different. How the people in those markets play, and pay for those same games is vastly different in the majority of them as well.
Black Desert just looks amazing.
Complete hyperbole. The game is good and fun but its not revolutionary.
I used to be somewhat excited for BD, but I am admittedly a graphics whore so I just couldn't help myself, lol.
Then I read that after level 50 (I believe) the game degenerates into "open-world" PvP, which imho is the most ridiculous excuse for PvP in existence, and my excitement meter bottomed out and melted away. Lol.
The more info I see about BD, the more I think it's going to become another PvP crap game with very little, if any, PvE content at max level. Next, please!

Group play, group play, group play. That's all i care about. How does it feel playing with others in the PVE environment? How do the classes interact with each other? You know, the important aspects of an MMO. I could give two shits about how it feels to solo a mob down over and over or how zerg PVP feels.
Yes it looks great but every single damn Korean MMO looks great. Is there any context or content to the visuals or is it yet another shallow, solo centric, PVP focused Korean MMO that players will abandon after a few months?
I guess all the folks that follow the hype and state *how awesome this game is* havent actually played it for several months neither in Korea nor in Japan.
Even in Korea this game has failed already(and only tomorrow is full game release and end of OBT).
Moreover, if you read several patch notes, you will notice that they do not work on core game features but keep adding costumes, trousers, sexy outfits, dog pets and kitties; rofl.
Is there an echo in this thread?
I am fully aware that the truth is in my own post, which is why I wrote it in the first place. The question is, if the truth is already in my own post, how ridiculously nonsensical are you to repeat it?
Like I said, the reason Asian games are taking 3-5 years before they are finally released here is because the asinine effort to "westernize" these games creates a lengthy and time consuming process to account for ... game changes, and lots of them sometimes, to be released here in "West" Just a fact.
... and no the markets are not, as a matter of fact, vastly different. They are only obviously different in language and culture and if you knew anything about game development, it doesn't take 3-5 years to change that in a game. The majority of these game's delays are due to the asinine demands in game play made by people like you. There are many of us who currently play Asian designed games in exactly the same manner that they are released in Asia as we speak, and many more who aren't but would like wise do so given the opportunity.
If you think that ArcheAge was crap then now if we compare those 2 games ArcheAge looks much better game with tons of content(both group and solo)
IKR, bots and hacks in an MMO how unusual. At least no one has ever come up with a system to sell gold from within the game for real money on nefarious web sites that also sell accounts and services against EULA.
Black Desert, just like every other Korean MMO, is very grind intensive. Sure it is open world, sure it has plenty of stuff that you can do. But the problem is, not all of them are worth doing. Now, most people playing a MMO would like to stay competitive in terms of character progression and development. To do that one usually has to find the most efficient way of making in game money, which is the fuel of character progression. Black Desert is no exception in this, if you want to stay relevant in the open world PvE/PvP, you have to join everyone else in the most efficient ways of grinding, which naturally limits the gameplay experience you have. In other words, the player community streamlines the game into a linear progression with things like "at level ** you grind ** at place **".
Of course one might argue that we can always steer clear of this linear progression by doing stuff that we want, after all it is an open world game and we are beings of free will. Sure, I'm not saying that you can't, but that consequences are often that you fall behind in your character progression by a significant margin so much so that you are hardly relevant in any competitive gameplay experience, both PvE and PvP wise.
That being said, Black Desert does present itself as a MMO that stands out from the crowd. There are several game features that are unique and refreshing. The node system, the contribution system, the breeding system, and the intimacy system for instance.
Does the game offer features that are new or innovative, and outside of established procedure game play? If so then it is revolutionary. And that is clearly the case as evidenced by the new and innovative features mentioned in the OPs video alone. And the video only mentioned a few. Might want to learn the meaning of the word revolutionary before posting next time.
