Hype Level 5.6?

How come the hype level is so low for this game?  Compare to a lot of other games in beta like 2Moons and Cabal Online, this game is way better but doesn't have as high of a rating.  Seems from the posts that a lot of people like it, so it's strange the rating is so low

    Dunno, to me the hype rating is too high for what to me is a boring, uninspired grindfest. To each their own.

    The gameplay videos look rather boring, thats why I would have hyped it low had i voted.

    A 5.6 is actually extremely low.  Its not just common Korean Grinder A13 type low, but made by shitting out code low.  I don't think people really gave this game a shot before giving it a 1, or maybe there is a bot a competing company uses to make 1000 accounts give it all a 1 because they are afraid of it. 

    It may also be due to the fact it hasn't been sitting on the GameList for 3 years as people speculate over the over-ambitious features, instead its more based on a game in a closed beta state that doesn't even have all its content unlocked, and it was actually using the Closed Beta test to ... test.  I mean if you played AoC or WAR right now, they would probably get a 1 hype too if you guys never heard about the game before.

    I have played to lvl 27 so far..IMO the game deserves 7.5ish at the least just taking the current build into consideration...There does need to be a bit more communication by the devs regarding their outlook on the game, new content implementation etc, but Im having a blast even with the limited amount of beta members currently in the game. 

    In a week the game is OB and free! Give it a shot, there is very little grind and there are some great, unique things so far that I've been diggin' (The ability to transform into a Possessed Beast that has unique skills and armor, the ability to enhance your DNA so as to specialize your character.) Check it out and then judge..

    played the beta for a while im sorry its lame. i give it a 4.0

  • stakka-stakka- Member Posts: 7

    Ah just noticed that the worst grinder in the friggin world 9 DRAGONS got hyped to 7.8..

    Maybe the rating is a golf score...the lower the better because that POS  couldnt remotely hold a candle to Requiem.

    The ratings on this site are messed up.  People rate games they haven't played, games they don't want to succeed, games that might be rated higher than the one they currently play, etc.

    The best bet is to just try games you might be interested in and decide for yourself.  I stopped looking at hype and ratings on this site a long time ago.

    I rated it low because after playing it to lvl 20 it is exactly like every other crappy L2 clone only with more blood.  Is the extra blood supose to convince that the game is somehow diffrent?  I cant believe Gravity has its name anywhere nere this peice of junk.

    IMO it's premature to rate a game before it goes at least OB, since the CB perioad is far too chaotic to get a real feeling of a game (many things are still to be added / tested, builds are unbalanced, xp rates and drops suck and might be altered on purpose for certain reasons). The "playability" & the "feeling" of the game might change dramatically in a matter of days, so in the end the game might become interesting and fun.

    Contrary to some ppl beliefs, CB is not an opportunity to get a first glimpse at the game (that's secondary), the main reason is so the devs can test the various aspects of the game on real players. So they might want to make your life in game a living hell on purpose, depending on what they're actually going to test.

    Many ppl slammed the game for not being a true horror game - I couldn't care less about that, to me this type of comments mean nothing :) I'm looking forward for OB ;)

    Never believe the hype rating here. It could get manipulated so easily, its value is almost equal to 0.

    There are so many things the company could do before they release closed beta and during closed beta that could boost this hype rating of this game all the way up next to AoC. It has been done before, right here at mmorpg.com

    The mob mentality is incredible and just about every problem, weakness, issue could be spin into nothingness. The company could very easily organize their fans to come and vote. It's not the first time people have done that either.

    i give it a 1, it is  a waste of space on my harddrive, totally shallow korean grinder, with no content. Not even worth looking at this game.

  • draguleadragulea Member Posts: 249

    Hehe, that should teach you not to enroll for any CB if you don't like testing unfinished games  

  • NapocalypseNapocalypse Member Posts: 83

    game is finished, it is a ported game from korea.  russia did fine they are in open with content now. not our fault gravity  cannot figure out how to hire a  translator to assist in coding,   they  get a game ported and are having trouble,from this point on, with the stupidity of Gravity I will never play another game associated with gravity from here on out.

     

    they do not belong in the mmo, or online business. They are a  piss poor company and got no idea what they are doing.

  • 1wolfie11wolfie1 Member Posts: 30

    Napo... go back to WoW... i like Korean "grinders

    " because they remove little kids like you from the game so i dont have to put up with you going omg this is just anouther grinder this game sucks wow is better blah blah blah

  • Napolleon2Napolleon2 Member Posts: 26

    for your info, I never played wow never will, this game however is a waste of everyone's time.  I love a good grind, in fact eq and ffx1 two of my favorite games, this game however does not belong in the classification as a mmo, since it is in fact trash.

    The only reason for it to have a low hype is because only about 200 people have voted...And other games have gotten about over 1000 votes...as well as 9 dragons...only about 400 people have voted.and thats low for real...we will not get the true score of requiem before it will be released...Just give it time ..let atleast 500 people vote on the game then make judgment..

    Butterfly effect

    and the fact it is horrible game, no content (yes it is beta but it is ported from a   FINISHED korean version), gravity has no idea how to run their company. It has nothing to offer in unique aspects of a mmo to make this stand out, nor is it in anyway horro game

    LOL.  Sounds like Napo got banned by yet another game.  What does that bring the total to, 11 now?  Anyone ever notice that all Napocalypse posts are hate flames on other games?  It's like he has a hatred for all MMOZ, yet he b-longs to an MMO forum.     Check out all his posts, you'll see what I mean.  I don't even read his posts anymore, I know it will just be about some game being "the worst ever OMGZ" or "shouldn't have been made" or "you're ignorant if you think that this will be a good game".  Whatev, dude.  You need to get some help.

    the fact that the game is trash is proof enough. whena  game comes out that is worthwhile and not worth falming , ill give it praise.

    so far  eq, ao, eve (even though bob incident),uo, ffxi are worthwhile games.
