Yes this is a complaint.
I am just grinding testing basically nothing and i cringe at the idea of logging and grinding even more. I am forcing myself to grind bcs of obligation as beta tester but it’s insane it’s mindless and serve no purpose.
I feel sick of this amount of grinding with 0 progress.
What’s the point of forcing the testers to grind nonstop and waste countless hours doing nothing?
Maybe it’s a test to see how you respond to grind?
Exactly. This could be it. At least we have feedback now.
Psychological experiment? >,<
If this keep going until the last day, I expect another CBT soon.
More key giveaway? Since this is hosted on IMC side, they can host it whenever they want.
So don’t grind, explore the world. You only really find start finding the big bugs once you start doing exactly what you aren’t supposed to do.
I would have shuddered at the thought of more waiting before… But now simce ive played the game, i really think it needs to go back in the oven for a while =[
It’s pretty great! But just needs a bit more work. Im not talking polishing, I mean a decent amount of further development in some areas.
I think the best thing the beta testers can do is play this beta, write comprehensive reviews about what they think. And hope that it does go back in the oven for another beta.
With monsters that oneshot me? if i pass near them? Sure.
They can ask me i will answer negative.
You know you can always stop playing, right?
I am very close to be honest.
lol every game has mindless grinding i think (atleast looking) they did a good job but i havent played it so cant really judge
Be confident, the grind will be even more worth for next CBT, atm, grind is something like 5 or 10 times less efficient than the KCBT, next Bêta grind will get you a much higher lvl easily
Still better than the quest, quest, quest and more quest to leveling…
Ever played Ragnarok at x1 rates? This is a joke compared to that one.
Still, the exp is too low for a CBT, which is meant to be a testing phase.
This game is just nothing for you if you don’t like to grind…
With a decent team/guild you can start from scratch and reach 99/70 in a month, 1.5 months at worst.
wtf did you expect ?
for starter it’s a korean game so it already set the tone : “you’re going to grind, b*tch”.
then it’s the same designer as RO. a game well known for what ? ah, yeah : grind !
THEN did you watch ANY video about the game before ? this is obvious in every way that you’re going to kill mobs by the tons.
i don’t understand how you STILL can be surprised !
-_-
Just do the quests then. 
It’s not about being surprised. This testing phase is to gather this data from players, and modify the rates for our servers, regardless of it being a Korean MMO.
And your argument is null considering even the Koreans on the native server complain that the grind is too hardcore.
Did you get that? THE KOREANS ARE COMPLAINING THE GRIND IS TOO HARDCORE. Obviously iCBT players complaining, should have a huge merit in this case.
Also didn’t Kim Hakyu leave gravity because he wanted more quests in RO?
