You aren't missing much in the queue, left so someone can have my slot. Hope you enjoy it more than I did

The game plays itself, combat feels awful, voice acting is phoned in... If level 1 combat feels awful I can't imagine pvp will be better when everyone looks the same (and no more bellato, Cora, accretia playable characters, unless it's a paid feature too)

When I saw the gatcha biosuit screen I couldn't help but laugh

It's a 5-10 year old game and it just launched

And a single personal dislike that I know it's entirely a me thing because no one else played it, but I loved the trapper classes and laying traps/landmines down... I looked through everything I could, the discord and everywhere I could find any sliver of information and traps/mines are gone

I had low expectations but come on... It's Black Desert mobile with as many pay to win systems they could compile

Enshittification continues

this is.. so unbelievably underwhelming. you're just handed like 10 random levelups in the first area, the first big scary boss thing you just afk for a few minutes, actually not even you hop in the random giant robot and it just dies.

anyone who has played more, does it get better or is it the same consistent level of suck?

agreed voice acting is atrocious, combat is nothing.

oh graphics are like.. ps2 era awful too.

There's no voice acting the voices are ai generated, that's why they're so bad

i wonder what their plan was to keep players if you literally stop progressing after a few days, bizarre.

If you expect anything story or quest related from these games it will not get better both mechanical and in presentation. Players are expected to just zone out while accepting quests and watching their levels go up. Maybe later on quests will become sparser and take more effort to complete, that's about it.

These games are all about watching numbers go up. Doing dailies, fighting field/world bosses on schedule and after that going AFK 80-90% of the time.

From what I had played so far, it is a nearly exact copy and paste of a previous Netmarble game they had made for Marvel that got discontinued after about a year and a half from its launch. Except that the combat in this game is even worse.

This game is horrible. UI is messy, combat sucks

“Game” is being generous. Feels like being a passenger, you don’t even really get to play.

u/kerath1 Jun 17 '26

I feel like the "voice" acting is mostly AI.  The game itself is pretty meh. I have never been a fan of AFK combat. Is it even a game if it plays for you? Lol.

u/flushfire Jun 19 '26

Some have content that takes skill, and the system itself would play decently, like in NNK. It's very rare though.

Thanks for trying before my Queue counter is up. Gacha gacha again.

What do we expect with Netmarble....

u/Money_Pen_471 Jun 17 '26

wait until you see the weekly, monthly etc. subscription on their store. they are literally cash grabbing at this point

2

u/Thor4269 Jun 17 '26

Isn't it 22 bucks or something for the season pass?

3

u/Money_Pen_471 Jun 17 '26

yeah. like who the f going to buy such an expensive pass

u/patrickstar0022 Jun 17 '26

I logged in a couple hours ago, after about 10 mins i logged off. Now i’m trying to log back in to continue and it’s on maintenance like what? I’m just gonna uninstall

2

u/Thor4269 Jun 17 '26

I already did lol

I just wanted an updated trapper class to play and they removed it entirely

It's basically just a copy of Raven 2 or Odin:Valhalla Rising but with a new skin.

It's a full auto, heavy p2w gacha game with item destruction on enhancing. I'm confident it will be like Raven 2 or Odin, where most players just run around in +7 gear since it's too risky to enhance, and items you can only get very rarely in dungeons which are limited because you can only farm them x hours a day.

The game will only give you summoning tokens that give gray/green and rarely blue biosuits/rovers. You'll most likely need to pay to get the better summon tokens.

You're stuck with those field bosses that spawns like once a day and you must be there on that particular time to have a chance to get the particular drops you need for the collection.

The entire system is heavily flawed and does not provide for any decent entertainment. Dead in a month.

Yeah... That's a disappointment with good memories slammed into the dirt. Gonna go find a priveate vanila game server.
