Discord What is Tree of Savior? Tree of Savior is an upcoming MMO in development by IMC Games. It's music is by S.F.A, or Sound Fashion Advisor, which is a group run by the former co-president of soundTemP (More info here, if you're interested). You may remember soundTemP from older games such as Ragnarok Online or Maplestory; in fact, ToS shares more with RO than just some familiar talent behind the music-- some of the dev team that made RO is working on ToS, and they have worked hard to recreate what many found so charming about classic kMMOs. ToS uses 3D models for its characters and monsters, but they are styled to look like the 2D sprites of old. It's a stylish aesthetic, and it makes the game look great. Each class (and there are many!) gets its own unique costume, and, of course, there are hats. Here are some examples! DID YOU SAY HATS? Class System Tree of Savior claims that it will have 80 classes on release, and while this might not sound believable if you know nothing about the game, in reality it would not be a surprise to see that many (or more!) classes included. Classes in ToS work very differently from classes in your typical RPG: Instead of picking one class and sticking with it, maybe with a choice of branch or two later on, ToS has 4 base classes (Swordsman, Wizard, Archer, and Cleric) with 10 ranks each. Your character has a character level, which determines what kind of gear you can wear and how many stat points you have, and a class level, which determines how many skill points you have and when you can advance to the next rank. You get to pick a new class, or stick with your old one, every 15 class levels. Here is a skill builder to help those of you who are still confused: http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/ (Probably at least slightly out-of-date at all times.) Helpful Tips

I think there was a problem with google translatequote:A2) TOS that requires some action sex game. Timing, location and direction of this game will have significance meaning.

Adam Bowen posted:Check out this new game inspired by the popular "lovely Anime Grindfest." It's called "lovely Generic Ripoff Anime Grindfest" How does it feel to be hilariously wrong? To be fair. RO was a grindfest, but it was a grindfest with soul, and charm, and that kind of stuff. Or maybe it simply my first MMO, my first guild, etc, etc. That being said, I've been staring at the screenshots and video posted of this ever since it's cropped up about six months ago, and realizing that when anime hats HD comes out, I am loving doomed.

Lorem ipsum posted:I think there was a problem with google translate Yeah, google translate sucks. The Korean closed beta is supposed to start this summer, so we'll probably get more info soonish. Hopefully someone like Spadow gets in, who will blog about it and/or make videos. Adam Bowen posted:Check out this new game inspired by the popular "lovely Anime Grindfest."

RO will always have a special place in my heart as my first MMO. So many good times that have long since past on what are now considered (rightfully so) horrible mechanics. If they can deliver a modern approach to the game, and the combat seems to be more arpg like, then I wouldnt mind grinding it out for a while for old times sake.

Hopefully it will have as many private servers as RO did.

The best (and worst) parts of private servers will always be the drama. Grape Squad, never forget!

Silento posted:The best (and worst) parts of private servers will always be the drama. Grape Squad, never forget! RIP Grape Squad. But yeah, private servers were all about lessening the grind. RO is already free to play now, anyway. With the grind reduced, RO was a fantastic MMORPG, albeit with plenty of flaws. I'm pretty excited about this, though. RO with action combat sounds great to me.

I was pretty certain that this game was dead, I am extremely happy to be proven wrong. The game looks like the love child of RO, Odin Sphere, and Diablo 3, and that is just downright exciting. If it's as mechanically sound as RO was, with some modern gameplay elements on top, I can very easily see it being quite successful.

Hundreds of bosses, 80 classes, 200 enemy types... how many types of food can I put on my head???I said come in! posted:Does anyone even care about these anymore though? The only reason why it really happened was to get around the monthly fee. Private servers run on the microtransaction model (donate and pick an item from this list!) and in their heyday the more popular pay to win servers actually made a decent profit. Doubt many are running in the black these days but there's still multiple servers with online populations of 1k+. My point is that a fair number of people threw a lot of money at private server operators in the guise of donations and that the reason private servers took off is that officially run RO servers are unplayable to most people for gameplay reasons. "Just" tripling the amount of experience you get from baseline is considered the extreme low end and multiplying experience by 75 times is still considered "mid-rate" by sane standards.

Super duper excited to be disappointed by this game, but the communication from the dev team has been pretty open so far, and they have said they are planning on doing an international release which is good.

Huh. Wouldn't have suspected that they'd release a translation, and thankfully it's definitely understandable if a little bit engrishy.

I might be tempted by this if they have a Professor analogue. Ragnarok was horrible tedious grindy poo poo but holy gently caress was playing a melee professor fun once you actually got there. Just bashing skulls with textbooks while making GBS threads bolts and powerful utility spells everywhere.

RO was a bad game, but I loved the music and the enemy sprite art. I wish someone would bring that stuff back, but attach it to a good game.
