They have 5 servers just for koreans?..The merge sounds reasonable.

I just like to socialize and enjoy PvE in MMOs. I havenât been competitive in games since League of Legends way back in 2010. I just dunno I canât be around people who get too competitive and takes games way too seriously. Even in FFXIV I carefully screened any raid groups I joined. If people were treating me like a soldier on the front lines barking orders at me like Sergeant Tryhard I noped out of there.
I managed to put together a raid group of friendly people who knew how to play and we got stuff done without being bitches to each other about it lol.

Nowadays people are more focused on reaching the end-game and on being overly obsessive on min-maxing, not to mention on following what rolls on korea, cause they know their sh*t.
It is interesting to know that there are some people that yet try to enjoy the actual essence of a MMORPG.
It physically hurts me deep inside every year that goes by that I see players treat MMORPGs like a series of statistics formulas. Even in Tree of Savior right now:

#This is fuckin terrible.
Poor guy felt that he had to just quit his character due to discrimination by min-maxers and META scrubs.
But this is what MMORPGs are about now. Efficiency. Even in FFXIV I eventually quit the game because I was maining a healer and new META in Heavensward was forcing healers to DPS on top of healing. It was too much for me⌠I had a very difficult time balancing that and I felt like I was working way too damn hard.
The inevitable destruction of any MMO begins when min-maxing takes hold and sets the stage so high that players get burned out on the game and completely forget to be immersed in the MMORPG world that the devs tried so hard to create.
At that point people are bored and donât understand why when the answer is pretty clear that they just arenât playing it rightâŚ

As much as society demands you run a certain way, doesnât mean you need to. The only way you can counter these kinds of thinking is to make your own society and similarly outcast people.
Not everyone has the will to do such thing, giving up is just easier for them.
But I totally agree with you.
Boy what a topic, going all different directions, sure this will end well.
No petasta/chrono/linker in your build then youâre trash (kind of mentality people have in-game). Sad. Seems like they wanted to maxed out faster thatâs why they want a cookie cutter build.
Iâve been told not to take paladin if Iâm goinâ monk. Pft! My paladin costume is fabulous, lel

Idk if this is goin to be big but Iâll leave it here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LL5zGvsmSM0 . Released date not yet confirmed
Choose whatâs fun for you and do what @Jargs said. Make friends with people and have fun with said-friends while ignoring the tryhards who donât know how to beat content unless everything is statistically perfect.
Iâm going paladin right now. I wanted to be paladin for the longest time and Iâve finally worked up the courage to just do it regardless of it being âTrashâ.
To add on to what @FlanFlan saidâŚ
How many times does a MMO do a rebalance that completely shakes up what the min/max builds are⌠Play whatâs fun and if youâre lucky you can get rolled to the top (if you care about such things). Otherwise find a guild, make some friends, have some fun.
Shes doing it wrong, countless movies have shown you have to put in your mouth ><
Depends how they market that to the west.
If its f2p, itll follow the normal pattern. Super hype, lots of players at launch; then 3 months later 50% of pop is gone.
Since it is made by the people who do crossfire, they do have money; but itâs known chinese devs will allocate profits from current games to future projects more quickly then western devs. (which means weak updates, weak support, etc etc)
And several players have threatened of quitting the game if their precious min-maxed builds get nerfed, since the game wonât provide class resets.
