Kim Taek Jin, founder and CEO of the South Korean game tycoon NCsoft, made a speech in Ewha Womans University on Oct. 12. In his speech, Mr. Kim said that he was very sick of the games paying attention to the demands of the senior gamers only, and that he would endow their games with easier and easier control systems and make more gamers able to enjoy the gaming fun fully and freely. Such is the case with Blade & Soul, which is under development currently! Gamers can easily control this game only by flexibly using several keys.
Seems Kim Teak Jin MIN BIN FIN ITHINKIAMMORETHENYOU talks to the senior aka professional gamers like they are noone and they dont do nothing about to help him... HEY MORON WE ARE THE PPL THAT KNOW WHAT THE GAME ITS ABOUT.I bet that he dont know shit about how to play his game...The last years gaming is not only a hobby or time lossing thing it became a sport or even a life for some of us.We spend more time in his games then we spend in work/school/university or what ever else.We pay and we want results for our money.He can go and say that he is sick of his mother mumbling not from the senior gamers witch try to fix your messes by suggesting how to fix the issues ... If he(or his team of devolopers aka retards) did listen to even 10% of our ideas and suggestions their games would be 10 times better and enjoyable for everyone.
I am happy that atleast Guild Wars 2 is not devoloped by NCsofts team and its from ArenaNet witch will be the huge success.

I'm afraid you are 100% wrong in your post. And I mean 100%...nothing, absolutely nothing from what you just said makes sense. He said that he doesn't like the fact that games seem to endure more to the senior gamers...not that he doesn't care about them. He wants to make his games more accessible to the general public. And to shut you down, B & S is being developed by Team Bloodlust and Team Bloodlust is as much "ncsoft's team" as ArenaNet is. Good day.
I feel very sad for the OP and those like him.
"[W]e spend more time in his games then we spend in work/school/university or what ever else."
A life wasted, is well, a life wasted.
All depends on what you mean by wasted.
If someone can be comfortable playing games 80 hours a week and not having to work how is he wasting his life anymore than someone who works 80 hours a week to make ends meet.
In the end, both of them spent a ton of time on something that historically and on the grandscale means nothing.
As long as you are enjoying your life, and as long as you arent hurting anyone else, then you arent wasting your life. When someone says you are wasting your life away its simply them trying to put their personal standards on you and judge your life by those. When in reality everyone has only one life to live, and in that life, its up to you how you live it.
Make game for casuals and the senior gamers wont play it.We wont challange not something that everyone can do.NCsoft are not even trying to fix their mistakes...Aion was and its the biggest fail of NCsoft...Totatly imbalanced game in any mean factions,classes,skills.Blizzard lost tons of subscribers just becoz they made wotlk to much casual, everything was too easy and loads of the senior gamers and fans of WoW fell apart and left.Thats why they try to fix their mistake with cataclysm now and NCsoft didnt fix anything with their new expasion of Aion, infact they made the game even more retardedly imbalanced...And they shoud endure more to senior gamers we are the ones that plays the game the most,find bugs comment on what is good and what is not...Not some casual that saw 10% of the content.We are the one that know the game better then everyone else devs, ceos and whoever else.ArenaNet prooved them selves long ago Team Bloodlust ? Who the fuck are they?!?!? Never heard of that team ever before.I guess you will get my point.
Nope, I don't get your point. If NCsoft wants to make GW2 a boy's toy then all they have to do is point out to ANet. It can only be good if a game is more accessible to the general public as long as they don't dump down the senior player's experience. They don't design their games based on the people who play 20 hours a day.
Thats the thing ... They should... We are the players that actually understand the game not the casuals...
I dont even see the point in trying to let this moron understand what you mean... most of the people who you say play 20hours are the once paying the shit towards the games.

Are you paying them more money? Nope. Are you any more special than the guy who plays one 1 hour per month? Nope. Enough said...seriously..I can't believe I'm still discussing this with you, you should already realise that you are utterly wrong.
Love your sig Rynne, so true. And yes I am a nerd.
Do i know more about the games?Yes.Do i report more bugs then him ? Yes.I do more help then him into the games ...Thats the thing the money...They just want more money they dont want to satisfy us.Do games for casuals,retarded ppl and everything burns down and down till the game's servers need to be closed.I want to enjoy a game not to complete everything within 2 months and then to search what the hell to do.
here is a video of some "senior gamers" who think they deserve more than anyone else.

LOL wow really?
Hmm someone is trying to be a troll and smart ass ?
Oh and yes WoW tell me other mmorpg that did better then WoW till now ...
No trolling just truth,cant stand elitist game snobs who think they are better because of what games they do or dont play or how long they have played making them special or their money more green than someone who might not have quite the amount of time to spend in front of a computer screen.
Oh now i see the poor guy never succeed in any game and got rejected by the ppl that actually can play.So sad story.I will stop talk to ppl in here that never succeed in any game and they are jelouse about it.
CYA
Well, one positive is that they are too busy playing games to breed.
Noone is going to make a game that requires unlimited amounts of time in front of the screen. Games are business and so they are catering to the wider audience to make more money. Get over it or you are gonna be dissapointed for years to come.
.../facepalm
You do realize that MMOs are treadmills. You don't actually get anywhere on them. It's just oh, new shine, get. Oh new shiny, get, Oh, new shiny, get. Oh new shiny, get, Oh, new shiny, get. Oh new shiny, get, Oh, new shiny, get. fart around bored. Expansion. Oh new shiny, get, Oh, new shiny, get.Oh new shiny, get, Oh, new shiny, get. etc
add: I think Necro just misses life ruining gameplay like old EQ use to have back 6 years ago.
NCSoft is done satisfying you. They want to satisfy more people now. More people = More money. I'm sorry, but you need money to make games and NCSoft loves money. I'm sure that Kim Take Jin's motto is "Cash Rules Everything Around Me"
OK, jokes aside. NCSoft has plenty of hardcorde grind games that South Koreans love, but elsewhere in the world, are not as popular. Look at WoW, it's HUGE in the asian markets. NCSoft wants some of that market. Most of the subscription numbers for Lineage 1 and 2 and Aion come from SKorea. They want to branch out and branch out big. Making a game that's more appealing to a broader audience isn't a bad thing.
