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.

Not 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.

New World just EOS'd

>>2034748
New 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.

>>2034429
i 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

>>2034748
lmao they closed new world servers and announced they extend the license to publish both throne and loa , doomsisies obliterated

>>2034784
Looked 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?

>>2035363
NW 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.

after that its the worst

>>2047992
I'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...

>>2048076
You 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.

>>2048092
exactly, 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.

>>2048139
I'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.

>>2058845
cat boxes are worth ~70K gold a piece, that's about $5 each

it 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

>>2029160
You know, plenty of skins aren't censored. Past the first 10 months or so I don't think they censored a damned thing.

>>2060045
there's nothing fun left in the game

you can dress up your character and enjoy the photo mode, that's about it

>>2062373
mmos used to mean doing all kinds of content depending on what you felt like
lost ark has raids and chaos basically thats it. they forgot the core sovl of the genre

>>2034748
New 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.

>>2062308

>>2067673
Played 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

>>2059017
A 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.

>>2069752
I 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.

>>2034429
You 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.

>>2069758
Yeah, 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.

>>2067673
unironically 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 things
I will play it for that alone. Fuck LA.

>>2071666
even the coom is better in aion 2, just hope the gooks will tone down p2w for a year or two on global release

>>2073183
If 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)

>>2071514
Can I run it on an old PC though?
Same question for Aion2.
I can run Lost Ark on an older PC.

>>2073868
I heard WWM has a lite version on the standalone launcher that runs like a mobile game
check 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.

>>2073868
Depends 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 rots
FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT GOOKS

>>2074337
No. 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.

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.

>>2110679
The 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.

>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

>>2111753
They 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.

>>2111753
Not 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.

>>2115209
I 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.

>>2115209
most of the sane people quit after getting to the underwater park dungeon, game was still fun enough up to that section
after 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.

>>2119401
Valtan 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

>>2116520
I 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?

>>2120361
Save 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.

>>2116518
Balance 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.

>>2114835
There 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.

just look at this: https://steamcharts.com/app/1599340#1y

>>2134524

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.

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?

>>2148407
https://uwuowo.mathi.moe/character/CE/Bignaturals

My character is called bignaturals

>>2148407
The 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.

>>2149884
To 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?

In my memoried Lost Ark looked pretty good but holy shit, in comparison to Aion 2 it looks like pure garbage

>>2151594
Holy bunda, everything else looks really nice too.

>>2151045
The 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.

>>2151594
The 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.

For 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.

>>2155621
Good-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.

>>2157106
I'd just login to creepshot people and jerk off not gonna lie.

Lost 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.

the game might even be fun but then they just ruin everything for money

>>2157106
Why do Korean make women have head length necks?

>>2168891
I 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.

I can probably do more damage but that hp pool is fucking insane. I expected that mode to be chill casual thing to do, not balls to the wall raid prog but you are alone. The fuck were they thinking.

>>2204719
Solo modes minimum dps requirements are already less than half of the normal mode. If it's still taking way too long for you then you are missing something fundamental in your build or gameplay.
Dangerous patterns have heavily reduced damage. Most mechs are removed or simplified to the point that it arguably doesn't even properly prepare people for NM. It's about as watered down as it can get without being a glorified guardian raid.

According to Memorizer, it shares the same body as assassin. Not sure that means all proportions are exactly the same or if there are minor adjustments.

Was checking to see how lost ark was doing after I quit during the clown raid release, glad to see they just didn’t only double down on raid retardation but also on the GRIND fest, this game has to one of the most fucking wasted potentials I have seen in my life, what I fucking shame, I really loved playing with my Artillerist.

There's just too much shit in the game. Too many systems. Every single time, it's hone this, gem that, match cards here, and then literally like 10 other things on top of it to squeeze out enough player power that it's not something you can just ignore if you don't want to do it.
Honing itself is a terrible enough system that it alone would hurt player count. But throw 20 other things on top of it, and now you've got an insurmountable mountain of shit that people will not bother with.

>>2245338
The great shame of Sneedgate's failure to design a game, none of the big goon accounts on Twitter are making any Lost Ark content, and thus, these delicious butts are left to fade into oblivion.

>>2245525
on the hush hush side i play bdo now. in lost ark if you dont feel like doing raiding you have jack shit to do, and the daily homework on top of it is so boring. such a big awesome world and they dont do jack shit with it. in bdo at least you have more mini games and you can focus on trade and lifeskills and a couple other things if you want. its not perfect by any means but its at least more.

I think if I had control of the Lost Ark IP, I would take it and make a new MMO that's a shameless WoW clone down to even the movement feeling the same. Rather than having the hero class set up we have, I would change to generalist regular MMO classes and no major main story really.
The story would come in from secondary singleplayer/co-op games that are GTA/Skyrim clones with action gameplay that follow the personal stories of two of the hero classes per game. So like maybe one follows the sorceress and the guardian knight, while another follows the gunslinger girl and whatever the Arthetinian guy is. Tailor each story to their backgrounds.

Gooks did everything in Stellar Blade, and also in Khazan, and in Lies of P, and in Crimson Desert. They are top 1 devs atm, only if they want it ofc. A shame they would rather focus on gaas slop.

They screwed up Lost Ark beyond repair. I swear to god they better be making a new huge ass game even bigger than something like Crimson Desert or I'm going to be fucking pissed.
