We Should Really Make A Black Desert Online Division

[Cr1TiKaL 0]

 

After watching a certain video, and contemplating what to do after the countless times I found myself bored with farming in WoW, I began looking at other MMO's that could fill what I was lacking in WoW. After a lot of searching I came across Black Desert Online, a Asian MMO that was released to the States a couple of months ago. After watching countless videos and reviews of the game I decided to buy it and give it a chance. I'm not sure how good it is since I haven't touched it yet but from the reviews it has received it has been made out to be one of the most interactive and fun MMO's to come out for a long time. Almost all of the non-paid reviews talk about the game having so much to do and so much end-game that people have been playing the game for 3 months straight since its release to the States. It's a huge open world game where you could do anything you want and explore anywhere you want. If you find grinding a boring and tedious thing to do then you could go build a boat and set out to go whale hunting. If you hate pve and only want to do pvp you can do that too because they brought back world pvp similar to vanilla WoW. If trading supplies with towns or setting up a army of npc workers to mine resources for you sounds fun, whelp you can do that too. If owning your own house and making it into something out of MTV's cribs sounds fun well you can do that too. If making a character resemble a famous person or turning them into a complete monstrosity similar to the monsters made out of the Dark Souls character creator sounds fun, well you can do that too. I cannot possibly tell you everything about the game since I still know very little, however, I can tell you that it would be an amazingly fun game for xG to be a part of. I am almost certain that everyone would be playing Black Desert online 24/7 if we had a clan with members on it. The problem however is the fact that we have already rooted ourselves into WoW and I doubt many people will want to try out a new MMO that they know very little about. If your interested in playing a huge MMO world game that has thousands of things to do with a boundless end game then please take a look at Black Desert Online. Down below are a bunch of videos I have found that will give you an idea of what the game is like and what it has to offer. I hope this little guide was helpful and if you have any questions at all please feel free to ask me -- even though I don't know that much tbh... Kappa.

This first video gets a bit ranty at times but I think he gets the point across about the lack of end game in WoW very well. Please don't let this first video deter you from the others. This video is here to get you into the mindset for Black Desert Online and not to call WoW a bad game, because WoW is a fucking amazing game in my opinion... but it does lack a lot in end game and things to do.

This video will introduce you to the game and show off how beautiful the game is. It is also an honest review but you don't have to pay as much attention to that since he has barely experienced the game and doesn't have much to give for a honest review.

An honest review of the game from the WoW star himself LazyPeon. At first he will talk about all of the negatives the game has to offer, however, if you watch the whole video he will nicely summarize why the game's positives greatly outweigh its negatives and why it is a great game.

Brief overview of how much things there are to do in the game.

A brief summary of the end game and what it has to offer. When watching this just remember that this video was made before the game came to EU and America and since then there has been many more things added to the game.

I heard that Black Desert was just a grind fest. I'll pass if that is the case.

Yeah it is a bit grindy but there are a lot of other things to do if that's not the kind of thing you like. If you haven't yet check out the fourth video down from the top because it lists some of the countless things you can do in the game.

Here is a hour and a 1/2 long stream of the game featuring non-combat sandbox game-play. This gameplay shows off just some of the things you can do outside of pve and pvp.

Yup... that's a big problem they have. Their currently trying to fix country restrictions but who knows how long that takes. Did you actually take this pic or did you find it btw? I'm curious cause it would be good to know what country your in if it's restricted that way others can now if they can play it or not.

Let's take a step back from a division, and simply look for people to play. We have a ton of people playing WoW right now, and I wouldn't even consider a division if it were up to me. All I've heard of Black Desert is that it's extremely grindy and the endgame is pretty lacking. I will also pass.

I'm sure that if most of the WoW regulars tried out Black Desert they might love it. But that's your opinion and I won't stop you from believing that. However, you shouldn't judge the game based on what you have heard... at least look at some of the videos. And if you still think its a grind-fest then don't buy the game.

 

Thank you for your opinion btw, it is appreciated.

Welp, the game was not fun. rip

I mean I'm sure it would be an amazing game to play with friends. But playing by myself I found it very dull and un-immersive. Although I did only play it for a short time but it never drew me in, not once during my time playing it.

after creating such a long ass thread, realizing that the game is boring must've really been shitty

Beautiful, lack of grins but that doesn't matter it's part of the game and i think it's fun though, deserve a try if i were you all and about friends, it might be not easy but try to look around you might meet someone new
