content doko
The game is on its last legs and the playerbase is STILL whining about the wrong shit, like "you need to give us more progression materials!", they're missing the fucking forest for the trees. This game is completely hopeless, full of fucking retards.
>at all time lowsUnironically how long until EoS announcement?
>>2029632EoS next year, guaranteed. These dipshits will never ask or accept that Lost Ark return as a game about content, not just raids.
>>2029632>average players sub-10k >peak players sub-20kfuuuck, I didn't know it was this badbtw, the previous thread >>1935970 didn't even make it to the bump limitit's joever

>>2030580eos next year bozo
>>2031324Whales will keep this game going for a decade and you will seethe and lose hair over it.
>>2029632I weep for what this game could have beenthe arrogance of these GREEDY FUCKING GOOKS NUKE KOREA
>>2029632>AGS officially shut down New World development, will be shutting down servers in 2027, laid off over 30k employeesNot even trolling or doomposting I think an EoS announcement will probably come early 2026 for Lost Ark (and Throne and Liberty as well). Lost Ark was an interesting attempt to port over a next-gen MMO to the West but Lost Ark has fundamental problems that Western players don't like and it goes beyond just MTX/P2W. I am curious though if SmileGate tries to find a new publishing partner in the West.

>after 12 years finally upgrading my computer and can play lost ark>it's dead and I missed the good times Really sad, I loved the concept of an arpgmmo. The raiding looked really fun. Hope this game gets a sequel or spiritual alt some day.
>>2034429>The raiding looked really funin theory yes, in practice it's why the game is dead
>>2034367you were owned in the mouth retarded faggot, haha western development continues as new world is cannabalized to make lost ark great again
Reinstalled for the update tomorrow, and it takes like 20 minutes just to get to character select.
Need the uncensored patch
Lost ark next
>>2034748New world felt like WildStar to me where they launched it, it flopped, then they tried to launch it again and it flopped again. Kind of a shame because I didn't hate the game, but there was definitely something about it that just didn't feel right.
>>2034429i watched since it was announced in korea, consumed nothing but arena pvp videos, had dreams of all these epic duels and...reaper...was my most anticipated class. reaper launched in it's worst state with a known bug and set bonus not working and pvp was a wintrade botfest and died in the evenings by that time.
>uncensor doesn't work any more.owari da
>>2034748lmao they closed new world servers and announced they extend the license to publish both throne and loa , doomsisies obliterated
>>2034784Looked like New World had some kind of appeal if it kept people coming back at certain points. Even 2 weeks ago they did something that spiked up the playercount and maintained that until the EOS announcement.Makes it sad to see it in comparison with LOA in the west where it seems nothing they do can really brings in a big wave of players. I'm not even expecting them to stay more than a week, but just try it out at all. It makes me wonder that even if LOA somehow does a huge update that effectively relaunches the game and fixes a majority of issues players had, would people still try it?
>>2035363NW and LOA aren't really comparable cost wise because Amazon simply publishes LOA, whereas they need to develop and publish NW which is far, far more expensive. Also LOA has a much better monetization system when it comes to making money from whales so they get a much higher return per player for far less effort.
>>2029160>and the remainder is spread across three regions.even the doomtranny OP isn't up to date, our doomsissy fat faggots all left....
>>2035698from 5 regions with 14 servers each... to 2 regions with 12 servers totalwe're running out of ways to cut costs

hmm, so you're stuck in gay baby jail til you silver hone and bound material craft unless you buy a boost to 1600...hmmm
>>20370741600 is nothing, don't even bother, the game is long dead poe1 starts a new league tomorrow, play that instead
I want to pump to lost ark sluts one more time
game is a graveyard but i'm still having fun
>>2038403Happy 4 U sista
>>2034563Oh no she's hot.
Without decensor my penis is not getting fully erect when jumping in hell on ayayas. I need ayayas buttholes to be fully in display for me once again
>>2034944works on my machine
GFN still isn't working (5 trillion dollar company btw)
>>2038403I wish traveling the world and going to islands and doing stuff with friends and strangers out there was still relevant. You know, like how an MMO ought to be like?
>>2044865I crash to desktop when using the july4_datapack4 do you have another one?
guys
>>2044865Show ass in that skin please
>>2046085should've played this garbage the very first 3-4 months it came out, everyone was doing soul islands and having fun killing the chameleon in punika
>>2047865launch month of mmos is the most kino game experience you can ever getafter that its the worst
>>2047992I'm literally still chasing that high, the first 3 months were something else entirely, felt so fucking good when I finally killed Argos/Velganos for the first time and now it's just memories lost like farts in the rain...
>>2048076You can still get those highs, you just have to be patient and wait for a very anticipated MMO. But after the first month when the mentally stable and good people leave after a month and the psychos are all that are left, things quickly degrade and can never happen in that game again.
>>2048092exactly, but since I left Lost Ark nothing has come close to it so far... My safest bet is to just get double dipped by the gooks with Lost Ark Mobile and call it a day.
>>2048139I'll try that one out just for old times sake, but I don't think it'll even have an open world like the original. It'll just have your little cuckshed apartment and direct portals to chaos dungeons and raids. It won't have that same new launch feeling, they're already deeply committed to tunnel visioned raid autism.
>>2046139Crashing as well after character selection
The general is THIS dead?
>>2054153sorry i went back to bdo, lost ark is boring as fuck
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SiDd3BQleYNovember 19: two new raids + paradise S02the crucible has 15 levels nowhell keys will go up to ilvl 1730they still haven't learned how to pronounce "denouement" but keep using that fucking word
>>2056555she looks so fucking putrid lol, like she's on death's door or smt fucking stupid WHORE
>>2057271the wall is real
>>2047553literally me (destroyer main)
>>2057991WTFShe's so cute, I'm in love.
i got a bunch of random skins and crap from when the game first released, like some of the cat boxes i think, the war dancer stuff, i dont even remember the class. is it worth trying to sell it for real money?
>>2058845cat boxes are worth ~70K gold a piece, that's about $5 eachit might be hard to find a buyer for everything you've got though, the game's close to EoS (pic related) and a lot of people are cashing out at the moment
>>2059017wtf can i do in lost ark with all this money if i sell all these skins, anything fun? is there anything besides raids going on?
>>2059017can't wait for sunk cost retards to shit and piss their pants when third party eos is announced next as they defended one of the most disgusting p2w milk funnels all the way down
>>2029160Can someone please tell me how the fuck I'm supposed to set these stupid anthills on fire for the Unforeseen Disaster quest I can't fucking believe I'm having so much trouble figuring this out I've been away from the game for years but don't know what I could possibly be missing I've tried interacting I've tried attacking I've tried throwing a flame grenade it just doesn't do shit
why do you doomers even bother posting just go away go back to whatever shitty general you crawled out of
>>2060943Drop this shit game and play WWM with us. It's infinitely better and popping off. Korean games are history.
>>2060948Only if you tell me how to burn the ant habitats
>>2060948>reskinned genshin sloplolno
>>2060948I'm playing Winds and it mogs gookshit into oblivion with no p2w eitherthe chinese century is here
>>2060045Dont know about the cloud but the cats and skins are one of the cheapest on the market not really worth much
>>2029160You know, plenty of skins aren't censored. Past the first 10 months or so I don't think they censored a damned thing.
>>2060045there's nothing fun left in the gameyou can dress up your character and enjoy the photo mode, that's about it
>>2062373mmos used to mean doing all kinds of content depending on what you felt likelost ark has raids and chaos basically thats it. they forgot the core sovl of the genre
>>2034748New World took Amazon dollars to create and maintain. Lost Ark Amazon does very little by comparison. We don't know the internals of their deal, but Smilegate would have had to fuck it up royally if it was set up to screw Amazon when players shrink.Most likely situation is that Lost Ark continues until it fails in Korea, who knows when that is. Second most likely is that Smilegate has to find another publisher and the experience is pretty seamless to the global player.But this isn't Amazon's game, they don't have any real monthly budget to justify, it's just profit for them.
>>2062308npcs were aped up since day 1
This LOA ON will be it. Surely with Aion 2 release SG will finally fix the game in order to compete.
>>2064917Don't even try to fix this stupid game. They better be working on Lost Ark 2.
https://playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/day-of-prophecy-release-notescringe
>1.5M followers>245 viewershow could this happen, bros...
aion 2 status?
>>2062308They are still censoring all the specialist skins, they just give up with race swapping on characters (as far a I know)
>>2067673Played it a bit , the game feels like a downgrade compared to Aion 1 I dont think it has any chances to survive on global release
>>2059017A new raid just dropped and not a single player came back for it.We're sitting at 16,052 right now, that's -500 players compared to last week's peak lol.
Act 4 hard mode is fucking awful to prog. It's just such a terrible experience. You just wipe over and over again on 240x mech, then later 150x mech.
>>2069752I stopped progging after brel 2.0.My main gets bussed, the other characters just do behemoth. Last week I couldn't even be bothered doing that. It's very obvious the game is about to EoS, they just added paid options to the daily login reward screen for fuck's sake.
>>2034429You can still play it, just wait for next honing event in December though. The first experience in a bunch of the raids is pretty good.
>>2069758Yeah, the paid login track is just ultra greedy. Yet they still censor artist skins and barely sell any as a result. Funny way to run a business. I do enjoy progging new raids, but the act 4 experience is just miserable. The raid itself feels really easy, but those two mechs are just awful. You basically have to bash your head into it until you get it, especially 240x.
>>2069759>"You can still play it, just don't play it until the future"lost shart players everyone.
WWM is popping off despite the geopolitical nerf to reputation. The fairest monetization I've ever seen in a while. Koreans did this to themselves. They deserve everything that is happening, and I hope Chinese MMO devs wipe them off the face of the internet.
>>2067673unironically better than LA even the raids are more fun at least for me, but you can also do other things like in a real mmo
>>2071612>do other thingsI will play it for that alone. Fuck LA.
>>2071666even the coom is better in aion 2, just hope the gooks will tone down p2w for a year or two on global release
>>2073183If it completely tanks in Korea, which so far it is, they will have no choice but to be nicer to westerners. LA is still strong in Korea (god knows why), so they don't have to treat us better.
as an oppressed third world citizen i refuse to verify my age on erome but i need to know. have there been any cum tributes recently (especially by meeow123)
>>2071514Can I run it on an old PC though? Same question for Aion2.I can run Lost Ark on an older PC.
>>2073868I heard WWM has a lite version on the standalone launcher that runs like a mobile gamecheck out sword of justice while you are at it too, it's older game, less action but is also from the same publisher so both have fair monetization
Does the Kazeros Challenge make honing easier. Can anyone post a screenshot of the reward screen. Thanks.
>>2073868Depends how old. It'll run on a GTX 1060, although it might look a bit rough. But if you're playing old games due to your hardware, it might not be that bad. I've peeked at low settings, it's not really that bad, particularly by MMO standards.
>lost ark MOBILE in ue5 while lost ark rotsFUCKING PIECE OF SHIT GOOKS
>>2074337No. Everything it gives is shown when you click the question mark. The astrogem boxes, karma, and mordum gloves require you to actually clear bosses to get as well.All the other rewards are in rosterbound boxes.
>>2074970I don't even care anymore, its the same 2 homework (chaos, guardian) and raids and NOTHING else. Nothing I'm not already sick and fucking tired of.
https://steamcharts.com/app/1599340#7dWeekend peak of a release week of two new raids + a new paradise season was 15,403 players.That's significantly lower than the October peak of 19,209, and the peak calculated for the last 30 days, 15,896.Even the most mazed of mazies are leaving this sinking ship.
You win, Smilegate, I'm out. Your raid design is unfun.
This history lesson never gets old
>>2079845>letting elitists guide game developmentraidniggers... raidniggers never change
can't wait for eos when all the mazies move on to aion 2
>>2083207Does Aion 2 have lolis?
>>2078871I couldn't stay away after all, but we did it! Got the chaos conqueror title.I have now beaten Lost Ark.
It's been a while since I've checked out the Sharties. I saw on reddit even the giga elitists are crashing out and now they see raid progression being the only progression is bad.I quit half way through the first season of paradise and even then I was barely logging on to do it and may 1 or 2 solo raids.
>>2092647>and now they see raid progression being the only progression is bad.huge iq reveal from these dumb mazies, look how long it took them
She killed the game...
I'm not watching loaon but I can safely say it's over.
>>2107720My Steam recap will say I played 0 hours this year.
saintone is quitting
>>2110055anyone who didn't is confirmed low iq, but he's a streamer so that's a given
I kept this general up for any cute pictures, but now it doesn't even get any posts, much less new pictures of any kind. At this rate, it might not even survive on /vm/, which is really tragic.
>>2110679The game lost a lot of its momentum and the latest LOAON didn't show any groundbreaking changes that would make a former endgame player consider picking it up again. The most they did was somewhat streamline a new/returning player's journey to 1700 ilvl. The presentation was mostly new shiny things, which admittedly is pretty cool stuff for people that still enjoy the game.Even Arca feels less active than before. Not as many pics posted in the screenshot section nowadays.
>>2110679i'd rather just get off to sfm porn than put myself through gookjew humiliation rituals
>>2111570>The most they did was somewhat streamline a new/returning player's journey to 1700 ilvl.Isnt this the thing the games been needing the most though? Was nearly impossible to even get in the game before unless there was an express, and thats being fixed it seems
>>2111753>hey man! Take this express ride to reach the anal raping faster!!!Yeeeeeeee naaahh, I'm good senpai, even if they offered me a fully kited BiS 1900 tier 99 aether gloom divine whatever I'd still say no, fuck being a mazed imbecile in a game where LITERALLY 99% of the playerbase left lol
>>2111753They could make it a one click to the maximum ilvl possible today and I still wouldn't come back. I want to adventure in the world and play with friends in a more fun and relaxed environment. All you do is your daily solo instanced homework and a stressful interview process to do raids where you feel pressure to perform. I don't know why you think giving people freebies would bring any meaningful amount of people back. It wouldn't.
>>2111753Not exactly. Even people with multiple endgame characters in tier 4 are dropping the game. So it wouldn't matter if you gave a new player a fully set up 6x char endgame roster and downloaded full knowledge of current raids into their brain. There is something that causing even these players to leave down the line.Personally, I think the raiding system being so restrictive (jailing, weekly lockout, 8 players required) while also being the biggest and sometimes only source of progression is dragging down a lot of the fun. It feels like you have to clock in each week to run through the raids. I can't just hop on whenever I actually feel like playing and run some raids for fun. Try to help out a prog party? Lose some rewards if they don't clear. Jailed after g1? Lose some rewards if I don't spend potentially 1hr+ to find a replacement.Take a break for 2 weeks? Miss some rewards even if I can play 3x as much on the 3rd week.The fact that you're playing with a lot of strangers if you don't have a full static just adds to the stress. You can't just take the L among your friends or mess around in raids. Random people will be upset with their time being wasted or missed rewards.
following the LOA-ON, 24hr peak dropped to sub-10K, it's literally joever
>>2077223
>>2113379>9,365 is approximately 0.707% of 1,324,761OOF, SHARTSISTERS I DON'T FEEL TOO GOOD... MAYBE RAIDING WILL CHEER US UP...
>>2086751it has unrestricted character creation, meaning you can just make a loli sized character, or hebe, etc, and wear all the skimpy outfits. it's lots of p2w though.
>>2114625better than this kusoge can't wait
Reminder that Lost Ark's player base is majority bots or people afking at that dark hub place where you hone, I forgot the name.The 20k average they maintained for a while was at least 12k bots.
>>211337910K WAS NEVER THE TRUE FLOOR5K IS THE FLOORWE WILL NEVER DROP BELOW 5KHOOOLLLLDDDDDDDDDDD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4yA2YsNVZ4>T3 honing will NOT be changed to use silver instead of gold??????>as a consolation prize, everyone gets 1 free relic core selector chest, that's 1 per account not 1 per characteryikes
>>2114835>remaining mazies are just now figuring out that the "doomposting" was actually the truth all along now that 99.3% of players quit and the layers of rng and raid fatigue are too unbearable even for themI hope these retards get fleeced out of thousands of dollars before eos, they genuinely deserve it
>>2114835The real blackpill is that it was like this from day one. I quit after getting to that chinese gladiator arena battle area and seeing waves of bots everywhere. I couldn't even go one screen without seeing at least ten of them zooming across the screen. Don't know how you guys lasted years with that shit. I'm usually a freedom guy but I'm ready to make gaming real ID required. I'm sick and tired of china and india shitting up every multiplayer game with any form of economy.
>>2115111how can those clown niggers can still have a job LMAO. that bitch is HIDEOUS to look at holy shit
I genuinely can't stand reddit mazzies. Of all the problems this game has their biggest issue is the fucking balance patch. Please EOS this game, it will hurt me but it will hurt these people more.
>>2115209I didn't last, I fell off around clown and was on and off until Theamine. At that point I just check in and sometimes comeback to power pass for a week or 2 and try out a new solo raid/character.
>>2115209most of the sane people quit after getting to the underwater park dungeon, game was still fun enough up to that sectionafter that the honing rng in tier 3 filtered almost everyone.argos slapping extra hard for people undergeared was a hard wakeup call to the game's p2w element.
>>2119401Valtan was the very first great filter, ppl even stayed for Argos and shit, but Valtan was like seeing what the future would be from now on and like 40% bailed there me included
>>2116520I was almost exactly like you. I lasted until Brel, then I basically stopped trying to raid at the latest (and clown too, since it was too much a PITA), just doing dailies for no reason and riding out the side content as long as I could. When solo raiding came out, I lasted until Echidna (solo Thaemine wasn't out yet) and I realized its boring and I wanted to play with others and feel like a multiplayer game, but without the stress and bullshit that raiding is. And there just wasn't enough of it. Sunk cost carried me up until that point, but I realized I was just fooling myself. I stopped having fun a long, long time ago.
I know this game is utter slop but my Valk is so pretty.
do you still plap your racist poison sacks?
Its over
>>2120361Save the thread by whoring her out
I miss this game, the gameplay shits on all the other MMOs, but the top down perspective and shitty korean graphics with genderlocked classes made it unappealing to /vg/ niggas.
>>2116518Balance is a problem when your class is underpowered. High end hard mode raids are hard enough that this can matter. When we were progging Kazeros HM we denied every soul eater below 3000 combat power.
>>2114835There are very few bots left in the game at this point. Some people might chaos bot, but the RMT army of bots is completely gone. Life skill prices went to the moon when that happened and have stayed high ever since.
https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/game/releases/winters-wrathsimply put, the downward spiral continuesjust look at this: https://steamcharts.com/app/1599340#1y
Two new solo raids is cool since I never finished Karma or AH. The skins look pretty trash this patch too. Think I'll just keep playing Gacha games for my gambling addition.
>>2132858I don't give a shit, the community is slop if they care about adjustments to number instead of the million of other things this game needs. Either way lost cause and you sound mazed as fuck,
>>2132624are you really this mentally ill and deluded? holy shit99.3% of players dropped out not cuz of the top down isometric view or the gender locked classes you autistic mazed nigger people left BECAUSE THIS GAME DEMANDS EITHER YOUR COMPLETE TIME OR YOUR COMPLETE WALLET and all for what, more raidniggery forever and ever? LOL
>>2134524Based and true. But the sad part is they're in too deep to go back now. They have to keep going until the whole thing collapses, which is a shame. You only have a chance to course correct earlier on the path of raidnigga-fication.
>>2120361It's been days... we're bricked up here anon
>https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/1pop0ak/ags_insiders_allegedly_picking_and_choosing/Reddit actual thinks someone is fixing their non raid race.

Kazeros raids of demon lords feel so much less "epic" than Legion raids. Compare Brel on an orbital arena with meteors with Brel in an ice arena. Even Kazeros himself is a lame boss despite having 5+ years of buildup.
Anyone saw that Tides of Annihilation game? Their cringe over the top cinematics reminds me of what Lost Ark uses all its game budget on.
>>2134524no you retard it's because you can't ERP in this game you fucking retard? what do all the most popular MMOs have in common? MODS AND ERP DUMBASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
>distinct lack of slutty valkyrie posting
nobody has cummed on a lost ark character in quite a long time
>>2141671I'm right here bro
>>2141994It's too bad all these hot poses are either locked behind 100 dollar packs, and/or are time limited and you can ever buy them again.
>>2143368The real problem is how shit the photo mode is and you can't get a good angle with some of the poses
>>2145596Environments are so easy to make in gamedev, they really should make the camera completely free angle, but then Frowngate can't save money making only half of the environment that faces you. Damn lazy Koreans.
>kurzan gives me 3 lv1 gems>i need 19.6k for one (1) lv10
>>2146480do you rike?
For anyone who still plays how do the t4 accessories in the solo mode shop work for Valk? I got 1 high value like outgoind damage 2% then att and weapon power. Is this good for 30k and how come it gave me dps pieces insstead of supp?
>>2148407https://uwuowo.mathi.moe/character/CE/Bignaturals My character is called bignaturals
>>2148407The top choice for each accessory is for dps, the bottom choice is for supp. I'm guessing you selected the top neck/ear/ring if you got the dps lines.
>>2149884To add, the accs it gives only has a single high line and 2 basically useless lines. If you're fine with a single high, consider checking the auction house prices first to see if it's cheaper.
hold up, 2 new solomode raids now? what about honing rates, can i get alts to 1680 more easily then? did they add any new sexo skins? ive been chilling with osrs but tempted to jump back on for a week or two for the heck of it, removing elixir & transcendence seems like a W, any other good stuff or nah? got main to 1700 before i quit again so would i get mokoko status again now? any good news from winter loaon?
>>2149884FUUUUCK
In my memoried Lost Ark looked pretty good but holy shit, in comparison to Aion 2 it looks like pure garbage
>>2151594Holy bunda, everything else looks really nice too.
>>2151045The honing adjustments were for advanced honing 1-20. So I guess somewhat easier to reach 1680 if you haven't done it on the character yet. None of the recent skins were sexo imo but at least you can easily check through them now.Mokoko cutoff is at 1700 so no.>any good news from winter loaon?The general sentiment I've seen from winter LOAON is that it has some good changes to help new/returning players into the game. But it doesn't address any longstanding issues with the game. So if you are okay with how the game currently is, it's a W since there's a good amount of new content laid out. If not, then nothing really changed.>>2151594The improved lighting is a big difference that I don't think they can replicate at all with UE3. SG recently ran a CBT for Lost Ark Mobile and it looks so much better. It's a good visual aid to see what the game could be if they somehow manage to port this game over to UE5.
>>2151594it's the exact same carbon copy of the plastic surgery barbie gooks you mazed niggers have here too, I actually thought you were posting a lost ark screenshot at first LMAO you niggas brains are really fried at this point
Hope you all had a good christmas bwos. I don't play this game but I thought I'd drop in because I still dream of the day this game fixes itself.
>>2152069tyvm for the detailed reply m8, gonna wait a bit longer before jumping back in then>>2152140likewise anon!
The only thing I miss from this game is making sexy goth outfits for my shadow hunter, post some assassin stuff that came out after Echidna.
>>2152070you are a crazy man or a tranny if you think loa characters look the same as a2 characters, they look worse even if you compare loa CC vs actual in-game look in a2
>>2153180forgot pic
>>2151594>>2153182mogs even bdo desu lost shart is over when aion 2 drops
>>2151594Post more I wanna goon
>>2153182SEXOOOOOOOO, when is western release?
>>2153283I dont have much...So far devs were pretty based in terms of coom, feels like nothing was censored and they add 1-3 gigacoom skins every 21d and some normie skins too, actually is pretty impressive for a game to be like this on release, lost ark was super prudish in its first year
its not photomode btw, just f12 to turn off UI
>>2153309The environment looks a bit off, but its ok because they focus on the important part.
>>2153406Is it? I think game looks pretty good, on par with current day AAA slop except this one it actually optimized
>>2153449For an MMO its nice, but not super amazing. I think it's the grass being a bit too identical. Not a major nitpick by any means, but it could look a bit more varied. And I guess the terrain texture could be a bit higher quality, and just a light touch of parallax mapping.
>>2151594>>2153302That ass is literally mia malkova tier. It's fucking over for bot shart bros....
>>2152874you better get those new specialist outfits to model for us
taken 5 minutes go in Abidos Garrison, North Kurzanthe bots are back, clogging up field boss channels
>>2155149even when the game it at record lowest concurrents... oh no
>>2153449LOOKATTHOSEFUCKINTITTIES!!!
>>215551020 channels full of bots, just like the old days almost.AGS let them in, they don't want us to see the real numbers. But we can see the real numbers in the empty lobbies for 95% of content.
>>2155735ikr its insane, i remember laughing when smilegate 'celebrated' 800k concurrent players on western servers even like 6 months after launch, 2/3rd of that was bots atleast...
>>2155621Good-looking characters and beautiful world is the only nice thing about a2 tho, at least thats my opinion after 1.5 month of playing. And 3rd person view instead of top-down I guess. P2w is much, much worse than anything you've seen in Lost Ark, at least prior to t4, raids arent real raids because you spend most of the time trying to kill trash mobs with millions hp and atk and you CANT progress to the final boss without killing them. You have nothing to do in open world, it serves no purpuse other than mindless grind for pets so you can gain more stats - there are ~200 pets in game and you need to kill ~1000 of each one to max it out and maxing them out gives you a huge power boost. Pvp is complete dogshit, although that was excpected becasue of NCshit, its purely stat-based and combat itself is tab-target so there is literally 0 skill involved.
>>2157106I'd just login to creepshot people and jerk off not gonna lie.
>>2156119Lost Ark had a launch record that any Korean game could ever hope to dream of, MMO or not. Hell, even Korean published western games could never hope to, there is literally only one ever in all these decades, and that was PUBG. And they fumbled it so hard. Unbelievable.
>00:00 server time>can't enter the new year island (Illios) yet againoh wellhappy new year, bros!
>>2154914>you better get those new specialist outfits to model for usyeah i might, i miss my lost ark sluts but nothing else in the game tempting me to play again just yet
>>2157106it's so fucking depressing that only greedy gooks make somewhat decent MMOs anymorethe game might even be fun but then they just ruin everything for money
>>2157106Why do Korean make women have head length necks?
>>2168891I know small faces are a thing in Korean beauty standards. Pretty much every KR LOA preset I've tried has the head size sliders turned down to the minimum. Not sure if they also like long necks specifically or if it just happens to come with having a small head. Since it would look stubby if you also shrunk the neck down proportionally.
>>2168891koreans are secretly southeast asians, thats why they have the same tastes. but they are in denial so they are extra racist to them to affirm to themselves that they are differen, event though they are not.
Why can't the west make a good mmo like OSRS but with sexy gook mmo aesthetics? like picrel >>2157106
>>2174407osrs with sexy waifus UH YES PLEASE, riot mmo is our best hope but theres no way that has sexo skins sigh
i am thinking about coming back to check the game out, planning on just starting from the beginning and just having fun exploring and doing the campaign is this still possible? i only played for 1 month after release i remember i quit because i got burnt out playing 5 chars everyday
>>2177334it's possible, you get chests of gear that let you move ahead faster now
>>2177334the translation is too shit to properly enjoy the campaign, and the further you go the worse it gets
>>2178103>>2177334That's not true. The translations got better.Yes, it's possible to have fun and explore.
>>2153449>>2153309>>2153302>>2153182>>2151594This game looks TOO good. I won't be able to run it.
https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/game/releases/thaemine-extreme>you WILL do the dailies and you WILL like itfuck off with that shit already
>>2182849No, they're still shit. Just for you I will make a compilation when new story content drops, look forward to that you fucking shill.
>>2182850Its pretty well optimized. Character models arent that good tho, if you make slightly big tits or asses you start to see lack of polygons on them. Like triangle tits of Lara from old games (not that bad ofc but you get the Idea).>>2168891Neck of my character is pretty normal tho? Its short. And you can change it anyway.
>new patch>no bots yet>true number of players revealedand remember that this 6K is split between the two regions, EU and NA
>>2186414>wait until most Lost Ark players are asleep>click Lost Ark Steamcharts bookmark>snip only the current player countThese Steamchart posters are more obsessed with this game than the people playing it.
>>2188922mazed niggers in 2026 are truly a sight to behold
come home, white man.
>>2188922peak players in the last 30 days = 14K, which is the lowest it's ever been (second lowest was 16K) you retarded nigger, post some cope about that too
