If I wanted to be a drone, I would go work for a call center, and at least get paid to do that shit.
I'm looking forward to giving the game a whirl at least - your video was really helpful in addressing some questions!
Great video! I am excited to play in September :)

Awesome review. Explains every point needed in a soft and objective comunication. Also really good editing. Nice video, keep up! 💪

I will say the cbtt on series x was impressive. I was apart of the no1 guild that captured and successfully defended Stone guard for the entirety of the tech test. while mnkb is an absolute must for me to get behind the game seriously, i look forward to hopping back in for the open beta to see the current version changes as i believe we got the raw version on the last one.

Is a wand/staff combo not good for this game? I was looking to be full support/heal/AOE
Nice review honestly. I have been checking out this game every once in a while, it started to look like an overhauled Lineage 2 which i am very fond of, i hope they don't screw people over with the typical overly aggressive monetization down the line, kind concerned for the PVP focus since most of other MMOs which were initially intended as PvP oriented games (or simply tried to incorporate PvP in the progression system) either blatantly failed or had to heavily shift focus trying to save game later on, hopefully they are able to expand on PvE well enough. All things considered, I'm interested and willing to give it a fair shot on release.
Great video, helps a lot!

Game has me interested, the combat looks a bit slow (although I am coming from BDO and Lost Ark so that makes sense,) but my main concern is the heavily group/guild centered progression. If the game doesn't have a great launch or as soon as player numbers start dropping, not being able to solo everything will become a problem.
The fact that this game doesn't have any life skilling blows my mind

I played the CBT, tbh if they crack down on the amount of allies you can have then the game will be good. It’s basically the biggest guild with the most allies wins. There’s no such thing as individual play it’s all based on numbers which is stupid because in my serve I was in one guild was taking all the events all the bosses etc it was dumb
ok but can i go fishing?

All of this sounds amazing to me. I can def see me getting 300 hour out of T&L, 500-800 if I get lucky and find a good guild to play with. And at this point; I'm 'fine' with having to spend $30 a month to have my best shot at 'keeping up' w gear and score.

Bones/graphics were good and I had some solid fun but got to the point fairly quickly where the grind wasn't worth my time.

There's a hardcap on gear. The p2w player will have a big advantage until f2p player has caught up. Once they are both capped there is NO p2w advantage no matter how hard you whale. The only p2w advantage would be rare arch boss items that are BiS and that will be very hard to get for f2p.
