That one insert song they play is nice, but everything else sounds like it was meant to be a placeholder until the real music was made. It's the worst midi garbage, and there's only like 3 tracks they keep going back to.

It's okay for most of the show but the bosses really could of used some epic Final Fantasy XIV boss music or some more rock theme's all Yasaharu Takanashi

An S2 with the animation budget of Chu2 and music lifted from FF6/7/14/15 would be pretty sweet. "Oh I guess this is the new expansion pack"

The music sounds like it's intentionally aiming for "slightly dated and not-particularly-high-budget videogame" aesthetic, which feels fitting enough for this broken MMO. I haven't really noticed it positively or negatively beyond that.

This episode was really fun. Especially the image of the Giant Warturtle slowly lilting into view while the army realizes they're completely hosed.

If I had to chose a big guild to be in I would go with the Flame Emperors as at least the higher ups seems to care about their underlings and don't just use them as cannon fodder.

Pay your dues and help out as cannon fodder in the big events, and your guild helps you out with every other aspect of the game (and NWO does seem quite PVE-heavy) until you can dominate the PVP battlefield as a senior officer yourself.

FilthyImp posted:The game is so hosed that by the time you're leveled up all the cool gear and skills will have been mined already. Most skills seem to be available to everyone an unlimited number of times, but are often difficult and obscure to get. Maple's advantage isn't that she's a hoarder of limited resources, but that she constantly goes for things that most players wouldn't even imagine trying. In those circumstances, newbie welfare is incredibly valuable, and we've got a demonstration of that with the twins, a pair of total scrubs who ended up becoming the mighty fists of the deadliest being in NewWorld Online.

Yeah Maple's unique combination of skills makes it easier for her to pick up other, more interesting skills. Like how having a flying turtle let her bypass most of the angel skill quest, or how her venom pod lets her speed run low level dungeons.

It's not just pure moment-to-moment gaming ability on her own part. The whole point is that she's got a Maple character as assembled by someone who knows what they're doing (but is slightly limited by what she believes to be the boundaries of possibility).

i'm not sure if her demon form should be much of a threat to skilled players. i mean, it obviously will be ridiculously effective because that's how maple works. but it's a big, clumsy monster in an action mmo. as far as raid bosses go we've seen worse just in this show.
