At a glance combat looks similar to skyforge with a few added ground projections like wildstar (not as bad though). The theme seems similar to blade&soul. The ability effects are obnoxious. Auto-run quest helpers exist so that people can hate on themeparks even more.

Questions before I even bother with another Eastern MMO.
Does it have PvP and if so, is it OWPvP or Consensual?
What exactly occurs on the client side? Too much and we'll just have AA and BDO all over again.
Why did they choose My.Com? Because they aren't exactly what I consider a trustworthy publisher.
Once those questions get answered, I'll give you an honest opinion on what will happen to this game, even before it launches.
Bumping this.
Not too fussed about question 3 - as the choice of imported game publishers isn't that great. A cynical response could be that they're all as bad as each other.......
I'll keep an eye on the cash shop side of things as more new comes out.
But any answers to questions 1 & 2 would be good. Probably easier for question 1 if anyone's played the game in the far east.
PVP - open world ? consensual? different rules for different areas? etc etc ?
Open Seamless World, True Flight, Open World PVP, Trinity and Territory Control.
This might be the one.
Or it could be another shallow cash shop pay2win chinese game like many other before it...seen too many of those offering depth and such but turning out to be a game where cash shop trumps all depth and complexity..
Boobs are LIFE, Boobs are LOVE, Boobs are JUSTICE, Boobs are mankind's HOPES and DREAMS. People who complain about boobs have lost their humanity.
My only real concern is that this is a Chinese-developed game title; and past game titles that have come over from China and generate their revenue continually through their publishing arms and counter-parts- have been notoriously known for going above and beyond what is acceptable Micro-transaction practices.
I really don't want to condemn a title just for being from China, but that's the perception i have due to past titles such as Perfect World, Forsaken world, Swordsman, 3 Kingdoms, Conquer online; etc.
It's not something i want to see and i can only hope that the Cash shop in Revelation Online isn't something ridiculous - i mean i understand they need to make money, and usually as much as one can; but i don't want to see items that end up breaking the community experience due to empowering those who pay the most.
Let's be clear though, i love Cash shops in MMOrpg's, i love them even more when developers and their publishing arms take the time to make the cash shop experience enjoyable and fun, but there also has to be a type of "Parent-like responsibility" when adding items in.
You don't want Ice cream trucks selling Taser and nightsticks to children, you want them to have Ice cream - please just give use Ice cream from these cash shops, and we'll be happy.

The trailer got me hyped. But an epic trailer does mean the MMO will be good. There is potential and Im certainly keeping my eye on it but the devil's in the details. We'll see. Also, if its p2w Im out.
I had my share of running like heedless chicken around a static and pointless world, where the only thing to do is to fight and kill the same dumb AI in different skin. A had more than enough of this, including for my next 3 lives.

Its definitely another themepark, they even got auto-run quest-helper.

There is PvP Level40 and up players can attack only level 40 or higher players. You can chose a peace mode or a kill mode. Turning your PvP on or off. There are Arenas,1vs1, 3vs3, Tournaments, Cross Realm and Realm Battlefields 10 vs 10 and 20 vs20 50 vs 50 and 200 vs 200, a Ladder Mode, Territory Wars (currently on Sat) and Castle War. A Single Guild can control more than one castle. There is even an underwater castle that you have to swim from the bottom up and into the castle to lay siege to it.
You get your wings at level 30 and unlike Aion there is no timelimit. You can fly all over for as long as you want.
You can raise your own non combat pets
1. In addition to what blueturtle says: up to 500 vs 500 for server against server (unity government per server). Also in some PvP modes, every participating player is automatically upscaled to the highest level.
2. AFAIK no major Revelation bot is known to exist - Netease server code is extremely robust - in addition Netease is the strictest MMORPG operator in Asia with regard to bottling, The maximum penalty is a permanent ban which is quite strictly enforced.
Even for getting caught using auto mouse clicker "excessively" - a temporary ban can be up to 3 days.
In addition, anyone get caught doing dubious activity in Reveleation online - upon completion of their temporary ban must undergo a "Penance mission" in game as punishment.
They are throw into a "Hell prison" and must fight it out without the benefit of any healing aid (being killed at least once per minute is quite common). As long as they failed to completed this, they will remain stuck in the prison.

Don't like the generic artwork, looks like Scarlet Blade mixed with Blade & Soul mixed with alot of wings and flying. I'm sick of games that look like this, especially the overt sexual innuendo.
Guys when I check the site, it says the classes and one healer/summoner (SpiritShaper) cant find any youtube vids. Whats the kr name for it to look for some gameplay?
Guess we are stuck with these asian MMO's, but I have yet to play one that has any kind of end game.
Just do not understand why people waste their time with them. Look at the recent hyped games ArchAge and Black Desert, just very poorly written games that have distinct visual appeal. Just a couple, in a long line of poorly written MMO's.
I suppose someone in the east will finally get it and write a decent one, but I certainly will not hold my breath for that happening.

huh I love Black Desert and liked Archeage very much. Not perfect but certainly enjoy(ed) them more than WoW, Rift, Guild Wars 2, Conan, etc.
Though I preferred Vanguard if its any consolation.
