Search your feelings. You know it to be true. -Lingerie Unsealer (T)- 1999 AP for 20 bucks you can unlock your Arkana's lingerie and get her all naked and ready to adventure. I have actually been playing this for the past few days. Typical Korean grinder. But as usual, the Koreans are way ahead of us in microtrans and what the avergae player wants. So embrace the booboofestu!Edit by Trippy: fixed title

The American publishers have described it as the MMORPG you can play one handed. They seem to at least be having fun with the localization.

pvp occurs in instances that pop once an hour. You click the ready and hope you get in. click fast. Then it's zerg vs zerg standoff. Stray too far and get focused. It was boring. As a defender I could get contribution points by taking damage. So I'd charge the line, do an aoe or two before I died, respawn to do it again.
Played the game for a while waiting for swtor expansion. Boring grinder with the t&a it's only redeeming feature, that is if you like mostly naked girls.

I just looked at that trailer, never even having heard of this game, and it looks as if it's all girls. Is it? Do only pervy men play and ERP each other? (I only heard of "ERP" the other day on Tera. People kept saying it and I googled but google didn't help me. I actually had to ask. Did we have that acronym in the olden days?

ERP? I'll have to ask for clarification on that term.

So I'm not the only one! Shit, I thought WTF? How out of touch (hehe) am I? Then I thought maybe it's just that I don't play these sorts of games (well, not since Lineage 2) and it's an Asian gamer thing. (I'm also not Asian) Thanks for making me feel better, Haemish, although we might have been happier within our blissful world of ignorance.

How's PvP? Awful. Decent progression and mechanically its not the worst but the BG's and personal scoring are fucking stupid in design and incentives. There's also a high level zone that is pvp enabled but its mostly run and gun ganks except that there are also quests in the zone designed to lead to pvp and those are nifty but at the end of the day the whole game is trash. Class balance is bad. Gear is a million times more important than skill etc. Honestly the best thing going for it is the translation and story, swear to god not at all the worst I've seen in MMO's. I know more about the story of Scarlet Blade than Tera, but it could be the gameplay was so boring and the npc's had such nice tits that I stopped and read/listened to what they had to say in Scarlet Blade unlike any other MMO ever.

I just looked at that trailer, never even having heard of this game, and it looks as if it's all girls. Is it? For now. The original game is out of Korea, and they are introducing the first male character. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=bhcLeEcfBf0So eventually I expect that will make it to the American publisher. For now, it's all titties, all the time. Do only pervy men play and ERP each other?
You know, part of the reason I tried this thing was a bit of masochism to see how sticky pages the community is. General chat is suprisingly business as usual. For all that some reviewers are making this game out to be, it's pretty much (IME) WoW or Rift or SWTOR, only with jiggling boobies and ridiculous animu fanservice fashions. Though I have not grouped because fuck other people, that's why. I'll let someone braver than me explore that. Oh and rumor has it that there is a nonzero female player population. But of course that's hard to confirm on the internets, since girls don't play video games, y'know.

Of course there are women playing this. It's not the 80s anymore.

I totally didn't expect anyone to seriously answer you. Though now it's turned into a good snipe hunt That video looks like someone took Lineage 2, downsampled it to Unity and ran it through the GW2 engine. It's a bottom feeding cynical moneygrab I'm sure they're getting rich off of

WHAT?!? It's not the 80s anymore? Where have I been for the last 30 years?!? Oh right. Mostly stoned.
nm.
So it'll make them a shit ton of dosh and completely disappear in a few months because of the lack of content - OR - it'll become the new anima-like pedo/pervy social network and make a shit ton of dosh until the next one comes along, right? Either way I'm sure you can catch a disease from it.

I just did my first PvP game on my Whipper. I whipped the other girls until they screamed and moaned. Seriously, I played the Janus battlefield, and it was like a minizerg. No tactics, just run out to the center and everybody see whose zerg is biggest at the moment. Though I did have a bit of fun pulling other players off their stairs and into our zerg.
