I really don’t care about MMOs, especially not Korean MMOs, but this is a very entertaining read.

    Part of me wants to experience the shitshow first hand, seems like an absolute riot. Realistically tho, never happening, I’ll probably look up some gameplay video at some point.

      Meh. I’ve played a few of these Korean MMOs when theyre brought over the States. I don’t mind them.

      If I was a kid with unlimited time and no pocket money, they’d be amazing. Turn off world chat, ignore the micro transactions store, and it’s easily solid 10-15 hours of quality gaming. Some even have really high quality cinematics. Once Human is really polished and fun.

      After 15 hours (and like every single MMO since forever), it becomes a slog. By that point, I usually jump back into a single player game.

    Man, you’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, much less its title, but when I heard “Throne and Liberty” for the first time, it immediately sounded like something lazily slapped together. I guess, it makes sense that specifically the localization is lazily slapped together.

    I don’t know that I’d say that the scene looked good, exactly; it certainly looked expensive.

    Lmao. Give this man a raise. His snark is on point.

        I nudged my sliders until all the important factors—tear duct length, tear duct height, skin glossiness, etc—were where I needed them to be, and then hit the “randomize appearance” button a few times for good measure. Then, I booted my creation out the door and into life.

        Did I write and publish it this while sleepwalking or something?
