Lets stop pretending this game was rushed out for fans. It has been in development since November of 2009 and has been fully release in Korea for months now.
Oh did we forget, is this the 2nd or 3rd 24 hour maintenance they’ve had already? What a joke lol. Wasn’t there a 8 hour maintenance the other day for the same transfer purposes? What did they do in the first 24 hours?
I’ve lost count of the terrible display of maintenance, extensions, and early server shut downs to care.

I want a waifu pillow now.
I think I agree with most points.
I feel that the maps are beautiful, but aren’t really memorable. As someone mentioned, some are nearly empty and you pass through them.
The gameplay could use more depth. Compared to RO MVP’s or even farming Soft Feathers, there is some aspect of strategic combat, rather than tank and spank.
Compared to another game I play, the boss fights have additional tasks throughout the fight that make it interesting and require a party; boss spawns clones that need to be killed, or spams a one-hit-kill skill when he’s closer to death, or has unblock-able attacks, etc.
I know people will disagree, and maybe say something like “lel RO ez mode just make TKM” /shrug at least RO has combat challenges available; you still need to build your TKM properly. This game is closer to pure tank and spank.
Every single problem you listed is noticeable well before level 280, and yet you kept playing anyway. What does that say about you?
You’re either a bad troll or a hypocrite. I can’t decide which, and frankly don’t care. Grats on spending hundreds of hours playing a game you think sucks.
I agree with the fps issue, especially about this problem: Lag death in Instance " A Drowsy Scent ", Veitas Gorge Quest | Bomb Upents & Kill Banshees
It’s make many people impossible to solve that quest, but still no fix until now.
Hey Ryan no disrespect you have some valid points from your thread, but if you want these guys to shut up you really need to post some videos. I’m actually very interested in watching, coming form another fletcher here =)

Who are the hypocrites here?
White Knights, they complain if this game has negative reviews with little time in gameplay.
They complain if the reviewer had maximum exposure and attained max level.
Review is nullified either way. Give me a fcking break. Game sucks no matter how much you play it, reviews reflect it.
Edit:
If having both responses isn’t white knighting I don’t know what is

OP. Lists 4 problems easily observable before level 100. Keeps playing until 280. Hypocrite plain and simple.
This isn’t a review of any kind. It’s a troll post looking to pick fights with people who enjoy the game. Look at the edit, it couldn’t be more obvious.
You know what I do when I play a game that I think sucks? I stop playing it. I don’t post on the forums. I don’t troll people who enjoy the game. I certainly don’t take the time to reach max level. I uninstall and move on.
You and OP are either liars, hypocrites, or trolls. Probably a combination of all 3.

Who here remembers how much content was in RO on its ‘release’? Also who here remembers how ‘challenging’ it was?
All there was to do in RO on ‘release’ was to MVP hunt, and go into PVP rooms. That was it.
ToS, on its early-access, has worlds more in content than its inspiration. If you think RO was optimized at that time then I have a bridge I would like to sell you.
Le bait is preety good.
Has anyone ever praised this game for its mob variety? Doubt so
Same shitty as always.
The most fun fact is to read here guys comming from B&S and crying about bots, hacks, goldseller, fps issues, bad lore. Those guys sure played B&S? Because those were the same problem there… And guess what? It’s STILL the problem there.
So, do us a favor and try to show real problems into the game. Bots, goldsellers and hacks are in EVERY GAME (From WoW to Black Desert. If you never saw one, kill yourself). FPS issues are the problem with every new MMO. Bad lore is the same shitty that say that you don’t love romantic books or criminal cases. It’s just your taste.
The only real problem that I can really point is the mobs spawn rate. It would be better to increased the respawn and lower to the ground the exp, if it was to just hold us back. Like 1% per hour. I really want those old days that was needed days to get just one level. But guess what? The community would complain in the same way. So, who cares about mine, or the op, shitty opinion?!

Honestly, even if his points are true, the way he comes off and talks about people is disgusting. Just because you don’t like a game doesn’t mean you get to criticize the people who do enjoy it. Keep comments like that to yourself because it is not wanted or needed. It made your entire post laughable and I doubt anyone will take it seriously, not like it matters at this point anyway.

Who here remembers when Ragnarok Online was released? According to Google, it’s 2002. The standards were completely different then, and what was deemed ‘quality content’ was different from now. ToS is trying too hard to not try hard at all. Perhaps they’re correct, since they’re the ones riding sportscars on the backs of all you plebs who can’t help but make excuses for them every time someone writes a convincing review.
How many months- no, YEARS has this game been in development? How much is there to show for it? If you weigh those two together you will see that there is pretty much ■■■■ all that this game offers for anyone who has seen it all already. This game isn’t even half the game other games on the market are, even at launch. Don’t give me that “oh but they’re indie developers” crap because it’s not like they don’t have money to hire people who can do the job right with all the money you guys have thrown at them. That is also pretending that they don’t have another cash cow that has been going for around a decade in the form of Granado Espada.
Wake up, sheeple. OP’s review is completely correct, and no matter how many times you write “well cya” it wont affect how true his points are. He was planning to leave without you saying so, since the game is so garbage. Saying “find real things to get mad at the game for” is proof of how desperate half of you are to say that this game is holy sh``it, since you are blatantly ignoring the glaring issues.
You guys can have hurt feelings about these bad reviews all you want. It doesn’t stop them from being true. lol
you’re absolutely correct about everything. but you still sound like a little b t c h.
I’m not acting like a White Knight here. My point is, we should just wait, we aren’t obliged to play this game. If they don’t fix this issues, I will quit as well, but IMO, this game is far from finished.
Fully release in Korea for months, and how that turned out? A disaster. kToS is empty, no one plays anymore, because the game wasn’t finished when they released.
The main issues for me are: FPS, lack of balance between classes, spawnrate sux. We will see how much endgame content they release. People are impatient and they will quit the game eventually, just look at what happened with Archeage for example.
edit: After reading your changes in your post, I do agree that Bosses and World Bosses aren’t challenging and should be worked on. Right now, mobs > bosses. It doesn’t make sense ;D
I do agree with the points…BUT…
This game is rly in early stages so you shouldn’t think about it as a finished game. Although I know and do agree that there is a high standard for games nowdays and even new games have to adapt to that to be able to compete with others.
That’s a reason why I’m concerned about ToS too.
But unlike others I think this game has a much better and stronger core than other games nowdays and with time it could be one of the best games out there…we just don’t know if it will have enough time to become that… I hope so.
I played with BnS btw…and that game sux… that is as generic as any other lame games in the last years. Hell I didn’t even enjoyed it as much as Dragon Nest…and I’m not a fan of that one either.
Anyway what I’m actually most concerned from the points of op is Boss fights… None of the others are as big issues as that.(maybe bots…but they are rly in every game…and I dunno how could it be solved)
Bosses should be much more challanging…and I don’t mean they should one-shot us…or their HP should last for ages…
But rly more tactics should be when we fight against them. I hope this can become better too later.
As a level 270 myself, I can confirm most of what he’s saying is true. Especially the gameplay part.
The only boss I remember is Poata.
