From what I heard through someone who lucked into the closed beta for it about a month ago, it wasn't actually very good as a lasting MMO, but it was decent enough as a social space. Barring the brutally low letter limit per-sentence and generally poor UI (so maybe it wasn't actually all that good at being a social space either).
Then again, mobage players have rock-bottom standards, so perhaps it'll be a 10/10 in their eyes.

I played the original on JP release and it was more of an action flavored mobile game than an mmo. I have no interest in scamcos attempt to recover their losses from their flop.

It is, as far as I can tell, some kind of nightmare worst case scenario brought on by the terrible state of the MMO genre and the lack of content in the other anime MMOs. The biggest problem communities are /xivg/, /pso2g/, and /bnsg/ and I mean, it tracks. They're some of the worst generals on the board.

So, XIV is suffering from its worst content drought in a while, PSO is dead, the BNS reboot flopped; now all these people are looking for a new game to play. The BP reboot is casual and has a pretty heavy focus on dress up, so it starts generating interest and pulling people in. Naturally, this also attracts the "thread personalities"/attentionwhores from each general.

The anime MMO populace in general is getting kinda inbred, most new blood is playing gacha instead. This means that a lot of these people have history going back for years, and a lot of them fucking hate each other. All of these attentionwhores evolved to fill a specific niche in their ecosystems, and mixing them all together is like introducing a bunch of invasive species to a deserted island in the Pacific. The avatarfags arrive and begin jockeying for status, soon followed by their friends/enemies (the line here is a lot blurrier than you'd think!), followed eventually by newfags. Everyone is in a race to control the narrative and smear their respective targets. This gets exponentially worse as the schizos begin speciating out and picking targets from other generals. Eventually you end up with the current mess where 99% of the thread is meaningless dramaslop.

If you care at all about the game it's fucking horrific. If you don't then it's like a reality show where a bunch of gay men in their late 30s act like catty teenage girls towards one another, which is vaguely entertaining. It's similar to the garbage that airs on TLC constantly.

Complete with 800+ post threads having like 25 images at most, because the concept of using images on an imageboard is beyond the understanding of the neverending deluge of tech-illiterate zoomies and gen-alphas swarming that place now.

Some Anon denote the rot beginning to spread around that board in ~2016, but I'd put that a few years too early. There were still plenty of decent Generals going strong at the time, with people actively posting about their experiences in-game with one another, taking screencaps all the while and orchestrating meet-ups, events, etc. (Plenty of drama as well, but that's to be expected).
2020 was (predictably) when the floodgates really started to open up, but it wasn't until around ~2022 or so that the changing demographics of the site truly begun to be felt in the worst way possible. You're absolutely right, most Generals on /vg/ in [current year] (and even some on /vm/ by this point) may as well be akin to Discord channels with how the newer generations treat them, completely ignorant of how to carry themselves in any format other than a direct IMing client.

>The biggest problem communities are /xivg/, /pso2g/, and /bnsg/
>/bnsg/
It's painful to see this one included in with the others, as 2016-2018 era /bnsg/ was a fantastic place. The camaraderie was off the charts there for the longest time, with screenshots galore and even quality OC by local artists being made on-the-regular.
Its corpse being exhumed for NEO's launch, and subsequently desecrated top-to-bottom by wildly ill schizos, is just about the biggest mockery of the source imaginable. /xivg/ and especially /pso2g/ were doomed from the start, but /bnsg/ was one of the best threads on that board during its prime. Shame you'd never know it, going by its wretchedly sordid state now.
>>
>>2000539
thanks, anon. your posts are always insightful.
>>
>>2000588
It's unfortunately just how 4chan is now. I blame it on the proxy sites.

If you told me there was a conspiracy to fill the entire site with so much garbage it becomes completely unusable I'd believe you.
>>
>>2000539
>>2000588
I miss the days when the worst of /vg/ generals where attentionwhoring avatarfags. /vg/ needs to die but it's too late, not like it can contain the cancer that's metastasized here anyways.
Pre 2013 boards were allowed offtopic MMO threads, the multi-board MMO experience was a blast but that won't ever come back again. It's a shame...
Not sure what can solve the problem, feels like the spirit of 4chan has changed from finding likeminded autists having fun together to hating each other and screaming the loudest about agendas no one cares about. Not to say there aren't the rare gem pockets but those used to be the expectation not the rarity.

turns out some people are actually banned by the jannies for a good reason. too bad that bans and timeouts are meaningless now that everyone is an unironic phoneposter or serial ban evader.

I know you're obviously just baiting, so here's your (You), but:
>An ERP clique /vm/ general
One which actually plays the games it claims to be playing (most of the time), and features those same Anon posting screenshots of the games in question and discussing mechanics/occurrences/happenings for said games, both in these threads and subsequent offshoot threads which stem from it. Frequented by people who are just here to have fun with one another over a shared interest, rather than drown threads in /soc/-grade schizobabble regardless of subject.
The standards for what makes a good General on /vg/ and /vm/ have fallen so outstandingly far in the last few years, that even business as usual here has become a cut above the norm. I'll take this ERP clique any day, over what's become of the vast majority of this site outside of it.
>>
>>2001725
100% agree. Even if people don't stick through the whole two weeks, people try the game anyway. Other generals burn through their content in a month at best and then develop such a strong hatred for every single person in it that they accuse every new person of being x person they don't like. This is one of the few generals that actually has something to consistently talk about often enough to warrant a general.
>>
>>2001725
At this point anyone using the terms clique and ERP shouldn't be taken seriously anymore. Every time without fail it's some sort of threadpest likely from the worst of /vg/ like /pso2g/ who can't stand anons having fun the old way without a pisscord.
>>
>>2001725
>>2001731
I'll be honest, this shit is dead, nobody uses the threads to discuss games.
>>
>>1999175
I tend to dislike anime MMOs but at least the rancid old ones we play have a distinct art style. BP use the same asset pack every post-Genshin gacha game does.
I'm gonna try it anyway, one of you faggots make a guild so I don't have to play with /vg/

It's always funny to see people say this like BP wasn't developed before Genshin
