    I recently picked BDO up again after trying it out no less than five times prior and hating it, but after reframing my mind around it and treating it as a single player action RPG with shared world elements it finally clicked and I'm really enjoying myself. I was so used to playing MMOs with a PvE focused endgame that it was hard for me to wrap my head around an MMO that was open ended and didn't have the traditional endgame content commonly found in MMOs. I was also used to trying my darndest to keep up with my friends which is definitely what you shouldn't try to do in this game if you want to enjoy yourself. Taking your time to go through the story at your own pace, learn your class and all of the various systems, explore the beautifully crafted world, and engage in the content you find fun goes a long way in helping you enjoy the game.

    I played BDO back when it 1st released and I hated it with a passion. I think it was bc it wasn't something I was use to with the main focus being on PvP as a PvE player and the combat being weird af to me. The best thing about it was how in depth the character creation was. But I've recently gotten back into and learning to absolutely love it

    I played Black Desert console for a while, made lots of characters and leveled up a lot of life skills. Recently I've built my first pc build and finally experienced the actual game. Now I don't want to play on console anymore, but I just don't have the will to start over from scratch again. Never did get to experience the sea content, which I was working towards on console. Black Desert is pretty fun, but I wish they had some kind of cross save. This game is a constant grind, even for the smallest things, I shouldn't be punished for switching platforms.

I've heard a lot of it's combat, but since no one compares it with single player games I guess MMOs are still not yet on that level.

    I stopped playing BDO for a few reasons. Glad they fixed the gear progression at least, but if you don't have a value pack for life skilling, it's really not worth it. You don't get enough from profits from marketplace without value pack, and inventory management is horrendous without it too. With cosmetics, I'd have to wait months to actually get what I want from there. If they got rid of the need for a value pack, and made it faster to get cosmetics for characters, I would consider getting back into it. Otherwise it's too annoying to play as a PVE player.

    I find you don't really need the tent or the quality pack. I've played the game for about 4 years now and other than the packs that have come to me during the game I haven't purchased them from the Pearl shop. While the tent is so much better than the tent you receive in game, I haven't considered buying it because I accept that I will have to leave the zone to sell my stuff and I'm okay with that. I find the tent gives someone else an advantage over me but I'm okay with that. What I do spend on is outfits and underwear if I like some item I've seen. But I am frugal when it comes to spending so I don't do it often. Most times I do it as a reward for completing a zone in game. One day I will put money towards the tent but that still is a long way off. Good video though

    I'm definitely not a PvP player in games like ESO but if the game is designed around PvP and solo friendly (not just for zerg mobs) I don't see why it wouldn't be enjoyable. I have heard it compared to fighting game this witch also isn't a genre I play much of at all. My experience is in Monster Hunter (no PvP), ESO (most people are PVE focused), Warframe (PvP is a complete joke as far I understand), Lost Ark (there so much in the game I never even tried it). The MMO that looks like it might be interesting for PvP is New World but I never played it. The games that I personally PvP in are RTS games (StarCraft, AoE, etc). :P

    Ok, i like BOD, i think it is a good game in certain aspects and has drawbacks in others. HOWEVER, i would honestly give a warning to anyone who wants to give this game a shot. This game has very heavy P2W and the game constantly creates problems and shoves the solutions in your face as real money shop items. You gotta keep this in mind. I think when we say "is it worth playing" this has to be mentioned. The game essentially is good but it has very VERY predatory monetization to a degree where i would say this is one of the most agressive monetizations you can find in an MMO. I totally agree that you can make this game quite comfy just by paying a similar amount as what you would pay for something like WoW or ESO however, you still have to grind for months considering most people can't play all day every day. What really is P2W imo is the fact that you can just straight up whale out that grind almost entirely. Is it very different than WoW token? Idk i never played WoW after WoW token but you 100% can't whale out in ESO.

    One of these days, someone will actually twig to the fact that every thing you do in this game in one way or another benefits you in the long run. Yes, enhancing is a pain, but if you are starting with a season character on the seasonal servers, it is less painful, especially Naru Gear. And "End game" .. as the kids say on a long distance car trip... "Are we there yet?" and the short-term answer is... not even close. There are still areas of the old continent yet to be opened up and that means there is more to come than just the Land to the north. Hadum ring any bells? And am glad you included links to the detailed videos as, housing is not cash based but dependent on Contribution Points and lifeskilling is definitely a game by their own rights. As I inferred initially, Black Desert can be as simple as you like or complicated. YOU have the choice and weirdly, you can change your mind and not feel like you have wasted time. I would advise any newbie to start and do ALL the main quest lines til at least O'Draxxia...do side quests and speak to NPCs, even if they don't have a quest. Knowledge is Power.

    Just letting everyone know, when he says "it takes a bit to be able to pvp" he actually means 5 months or more (if you've played this game for 7 years then 5 month might seem just a bit) Just to put it into perspective, there's a quest that give you a "free" top tier ring, but it's not actually free, it still costs around 12 billions (original on market place costs around 50 bil) and if you are a new player, that doesn't know anyhing (even with guides you will still be clueless as what to do), you will probably make around 100mil per 1-3h. And you still need another ring, 2 earings, belt, 4 armor pieces and 3 weapons. Let that sink in. Furthermore, to add insult to injury, that ring basically has a mandatory 45 days wait, because you need 180 crafting materials that you can only grind for a maximum of 4 per day Yes, the combat looks fun, but when you spam the same flashy moves against braindead mobs, that offer no challange, for hours every day, every month, it sucks all the fun. There are other alternatives of making money, but that's another can of worms that i will not open You have been warned, have fun

    Playing BDO is a lot like trying to buy a house- the best time to start was ten years ago, good luck trying to get your foot in the door now haha. I played pretty hard at the PS launch but then fell off for a month due to other responsibilities, and by the time I came back that was that. I still stop on from time to time but the performance and community are so awful its hard to want to give it any serious time. It was recently free on Steam so I snagged it for PC, may give it another spin at some point to see if it's still a mess.

    As for the CON about the game lore. First of all, the new lore-centric expansion, the Land of the Morning Sun, is totally quest-centric. It's true that the delivery is no the best (FF14 has the best storytelling), but amongst MMORPGS I think it stands somewhere mid-way. As for the lore, while the delivery of the main quest(s) is a bit underwhelming (mostly done through a 2-lines unvoiced dialog box), the lore is both deep and unique. Also, the environmental story-telling, that is the lore you can pick up by looking at how objects and structures are laid down in the world, is absolutely A rate. Without spoilers, the lore revolves around very mature themes, where "evil" isn't real, and both the "villain" and the "heroes" are actually just people trying to do the best for themselves and for the ones they love. The "you" in-game is not a spotless hero, it's just a guy looking out for themselves, which often, but not necessarily, aligns with the "greater good". Also, the overtone around the lore is something in the line of "beware the pity", where the road to hell is paved by too many mindless attempts at good deeds. BDO makes a good work of making the lore completely accessory to the game; it's not in your face, and you can just ignore it, if you wish. But once you see it, it's there and it's incredibly consistent, you start to see it even in the design of the movesets of the mobs, which frankly, is a level of game design that you won't find in even more "story centric" games as FF14.

Selling P items is terrible $ to silver ratio. Which is why they’re always 10000 preorders and 0 listings. They should’ve uncapped VP price so ppl would actually list it for others to buy and get their money’s worth, just like wow token. Even if it’s 1 bil or 10 bil. PA actually has sensible prices in korea, but for some reason they cracked up the prices to the max for western release to rip off some rich white kids l guess. You have to go from € to acoin to pearl with million items, discounts and coupons they’re using like every single mobile gaming trick in the book to milk you.

    I think BDO is still P2W now. because its all about enhancing and the RNG. Most people don't spent their money to get End game gears straight up like WHALES, but to progress faster. Better gear >Better farming spots(better gears will always win on low and mid level contest)> Better Income > More Better gears>More enhancement tries>More success. This include the PEN Guaranteed system because you are going to grind like hell. As long as you can do this, people will never stop buying. So overall, You can pretty much get all the things without paying BUT...to compete in PvP or to get end game gear, you are not gonna play the game, you are going to grind and grind some more or you can Pay :D

    The rng cant be a con unless its personal because the entire game system is built off of it. It makes better gear something to work towards to get a guaranteed or near guaranteed upgrade using other items. Instead of raid bosses with rng drops and lockouts you have to pay for the items with your hard earned farm money. And since the other half of the game is life skills means that everything is connected and worth doing, as well as virtually never running out of things to do.
