Whatever happened to everyone playing Swordsman Online? Did the game turn into a hilarious clusterfuck to the level of Age of Wushu or just not have any staying power?

I feel the need for a kung fu MMO in my life.

It was really bad.

Please be looking forward to Moonlight Blade.

I'm still bummed at how fast Swordsman went downhill post level 40. Could have been neat if the systems went anywhere and it wasn't so constricted and grindy.

It's been like a year and a half since I last played Age of Wushu for real, but I had to drop in to say that I'm going to be going to Mount Emei this summer. Finally I will learn- and report back- the proper pronunciation.

I've long been fascinated with how the alt-right develops elaborate and obscure dog whistles to try to communicate their meaning without having to say it out loud
Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that

It comes out sounding like "whe-meh", from what I've heard it pronounced

Most everyone just called it "em-mey" so close enough :v:

I thought it was pronounced "Hitler did nothing wrong", though that might have just been Katniss.

I always thought it was "eee-mai" but maybe that's just me. I'll probably save a sound clip of the locals pronouncing it and upload over a VPN, unsure.

It's funny, the professor writing my letter of recommendation for the study abroad program is Chinese as well as a practitioner of Tai-Chi and Wing-Chun and he and I were able to have a convincing discussion about everything from Wudang philosophy to the Sunflower Manual, despite all of my knowledge coming from Age of Wushu and Kung Fu Hustle. He, uh, seemed decidedly less impressed when I let that slip.

I found this at a store near me and started watching them. 17 hours of terrible kung fu movies. Halfway through Kung Fu of Seven Steps the dubbing just kinda stopped for five minutes, the main villain had less than five minutes of screen time (including the final battle and intro credits), and more backflips occurred than I would care to count. I wish I'd found this when we were doing drunk movie nights. The 7 Steps of Kung Fu is on Youtube as well.

gently caress me I miss this dumb kung fu game.

I tried out Swordsman for a while but it didn't really hold a candle to early Wushu. I'll never get over the fact in Wushu a rabble of low-level ungeared peasants could decimate high-level powerplayers just by catching them in a never-ending combo. There's nothing better than raising a huge middlefinger to that whole 'quality over quantity' malarkey. The Wuxia theme is great but that was never why I gave Wushu a chance.

Also yes.. Wulin is actually a very nice version of chinagame, the company running it has been doing a good job, free VIP relativly smooth patches...

Yeah if it weren't for the fact that wushu is so railroaded and so time-based that you have to base your life around the playtimes available I might look at wulin.

Instead I'm playing on my 3DS because it's portable and I can shut it anytime (other than hunting monsters online).

Hey, join the club. For some reason LongDong and I downloaded it on a whim about a month ago, to both our surprise we're still playing. I have no idea what to make of that. Still the same dumb chinagame, but it's impressive how much of a difference not being Snail makes.

If you see Pretty-Boy or LongDongHong say hello!

...Was that today? Were you the lady running around with a windrunner? I got killed about 6 times today trying to spy on Wudang, so it's kind of hard to remember specifics.

On a sidenote, I have an excursion question. I know that bumps your school inners and skills down to a certain level, but are you totally locked out from using them while excursioned?
