    It's probably coming west next year.  While the game appears to be much better than other Korean ARPGS like Devilian and Mu Legends, it seems to have a pretty lame endgame if you don't care for PVP.  And they've implemented several P2W elements that may be hard to remove for the west.

    If the game isn't here yet, then wouldn't any classes at all be new classes?

    True.

    These "new" classes are essentially them removing gender locks. Which is one of those changes that one might associate with preparing for a western release.

    So.... why bother reading/commenting? lmao
    These articles aren't just written for you. Self-centered much?
    There are actually people playing the Korean version with an English patch I believe so I'm sure they are interested in this news.

    I am waiting for this but I think people are playing it since it has Russian servers. Several 'how to' youtubes videos are quite popular.

    These arent much new classes tbh just removed gender lock with few features as in the other gender will have diff looking skills and only some diff skills in terms of cc/damage. The new actual class that was teased is the last proffesion and it looked like a loli with a staff.

    I honestly don't know why are some people even drooling on this game. It looks really mediocre and cheap.

    Cons:

    - top down perspective instead of 3rd person with WASD controls and 360° camera freedom

    - mounts in a top down perspective game... xD where you can't see too much due to the camera perspective... why do you even need mounts is beyond me

    - art style and setting is all over the place - you have characters that fight with swords and also characters that fight with machineguns... this is so stupid, mostly because having firearms makes melee weapons completely obsolete in any semi-realistic universe, because if a guy with a sword and a guy with a machinegun have to fight each other to the death, the sword guy will be Swiss Cheese and dead and the machinegun guy won't have broken a sweat... I know it's fantasy, but at least they should've made the ranged classes bows or crossbows, not fu**ing machineguns

    Pros:

    - N/A

    Seriously, from whatever gameplay footage I've seen, this game is really cheap and lazy, the people who made it obviously did not put much thought or effort into anything - just put some shiny bikini armor chicks with big tits and some Lolitas for the horny pedos and it's a done deal.

    Honestly, I liked the older Asian MMOs from the period between 2004 and 2010 when they had some distinct style and direction and were not selling porn. Game like Perfect World, Silkroad, Lineage 2, Talisman Online, Metin2 and others. They were far from amazing games, but it clearly showed the people who made them put some thought and effort into them.

    This game is planned for release by Amazon in the EU&NA in 2021. If they remove all p2w options this will be a serious addition to the game market it's not like Amazon needs money ;) Just go the PoE route and sell Cosmetic only.

    The game has nowhere the depth of PoE builds.

    The end game gearing is very linear, thus the longevity of the game will be very short especially among western playerbase.

    IMO Amazon should sell it as a B2P game without cash shop, but that's just my 2c 

    Also the graphics are already looking quite dated, if this released years ago would have been a different story.
    I think they should remove the P2W stuff, reduce the degree of lockout timers and use seasons.  B2P or F2P with just cosmetics is fine by me.  Although B2P tends to limit income due to the fact that there aren't whales collecting stuff from the shop.

    diablo 3 is a better game than POE

    I'll tell you what.  Try the game and tell me when you actually run out of space for needed stuff.  Casuals are not held back as much as you insinuate.  By the time you do feel that you NEED stash, spending a little money to thank them is not P2W.  You can easily spend less than the D3 price tag and get a game that actually updates a great deal.

    Your argument stinks of someone who doesn't play the game.  Stash doesn't become an issue until you start collecting maps.  and even then you can always make a second free account to mule ala D2.

    And don't pretend that D3 didn't add P2W with the $15 necromancer class that has never left the meta and is still the go to spec for the fastest paragon leveling groups.

    D3 is a B2P game, so having to purchase an expansion or class is pretty reasonable. In order to get the crusader class you had to buy Reaper of Souls expac and you got other things when you purchased the necro, character slots, extra stash tabs and some cosmetics. As far as I know, there is nothing else for purchase. They've been able to keep the game running all these years with just money from the base game, expac and necro pack. Pretty fair deal IMO.

    Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?

    Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.

    The Necro isn't an expansion and it has remained the best class since it's arrival.  And you get a lot more for the same cost in POE than you do in D3.

    D3's model failed after the RMAH was removed and so they cancelled a second expansion before the first released.  D3 has been mostly in maintenance mode since then.  POE gets tons of new content multiple times a year.

    Necro being the best class/spec since it's release is...debatable. The whirlwind/rend barb might want to have a word with you up until this season when it was overtaken with bone spear necro. Can't disagree with it being on maintenance mode for years now.

    I dont play PoE - but the game is 10x deeper in terms of skill tree and gear builds than D3
    It's a tradeoff. PoE is deeper, but D3 has much smoother combat and a better early game. Until you progress your gear and skill tree, PoE feels really bad to play. It's why I don't play hardcore in PoE - restarting is not fun.
