What's the pvp like? I enjoyed dunking on people with the goon collective in wushu and would like to do that again.

I think its mostly instanced pvp, apparently theres also faction pvp and also, according to an option in the UI at least, the ability to turn on JIANGHU MODE

There does seem to be some sort of open world pvp in the works with a pvp zone and a karma system outside of that. You can only pvp max level players though

It's a testament to just how absurd the game was. So many games just pass by to be forgotten and chinagame just sticks around forever.

Smug as fuck.
Man I remember goonunism, good times. I didn't help with the crafting, but I remember making a poo poo ton of the basic bitch food.. rice cakes? Steamed buns? I know it had rice because I remember planting metric shittons of it.

From what I remember having a food buff (at all) was pretty important since it gave you Regen, so I absolutely flooded the goon bank with cheap tier 1 food for free so no goon would throw up on a man with an empty stomach.

I actually remember goons forming a makeshift bodyguard for my rice fields once the vietnamese figured out what I was doing by flooding "their" fields (I think all fields to plant poo poo was public and limited?) with massive amounts of low tier farms which appearently had the nice side effect of cutting into their bottom line.

poo poo before I quit playing (about 1.5 years after launch) you could farm just about anywhere because even the bots quit farming they were just Liang farming with kidnaps.

So I bought in to Swords of Legends.

Oh boy, the localization is not good straight out of the gate. It seems to be some guys from the office to do the VA and google translate.. at least the VAs seem to pronounce the Chinese names correctly though.

Game looks fairly pretty though and the lack of P2W and any premium subscription is nice.

There gonna be a goon guild for this at all ? any interest in one ?

IDK why I felt like randomly sharing this but I emailed the old CM that seemed to be cool as I saw on his LinkedIn profile (no I'm not a stalker) he got promoted to Director at SnailUSA, just to see if he could confirm if Age of Wushu 2 was ever actually happening:



Date was Nov 2017 so... I don't think its happening

I spent an afternoon a few weeks ago trying to explain this game to my friends and felt like I was having a stroke. Telling them you could spit alcohol on people until they threw up or you could get kidnapped while logged out of the game, or the time I did some random event quest that no one knew the steps for or could understand and somehow solved it, got a table, and then a goon tried to make a cool sword for me and failed.

Instead of "will there ever be a good MMO again" we need to ask "will there ever be another MMO that is so bad it's good"

SO I downloaded and started playing around again. I don't understand anything anymore: there are literally dozens of token-currencies and it seems impossible to even discern which are related to discontinued events.

Didnt we figure out the secrets of REs, NPC favor, and whatever? I haven't gotten an RE within a day of resubscribing to VIP, which is a bummer. The server pop seems small enough that its not worth it for botters to even bother- but somehow, prices have not moved in the past 5 years. Who is buying all of the ferrets generated by these REs?!?!

It's just the same pay2win culture with idiots still dropping money and keeping the economy afloat from what I have heard.

Also side note I have looked into private servers because I thought at one point what harm could it be to make a goon run one however there are no leaks of it at least on English speaking sites and nobody has attempted to put together an emulator. Maybe one day we will all play a terrible China game again (and can put in the old Text.package for the Engrish).

Dis is amazing!
I gotta try dis!

I've probably said this before but I really liked the blend of pvp into everything in this game. The random pulled in assassin stuff for guild carts and boss fights and jail breaks was a really good mechanic, along with the school raiding and kidnapping. It's a shame about the excessive freemium currencies and cash shop additions.

I've found that trying most modern MMOs I just can't stand much collecting of 0/22 bear asses for any quests so I mostly just play pvp games now.

I still remember growing a lemon tree field from which we ambushed caravans. I don't know what this game was but it was certainly weird. I tapped out when the headbutt style got put in I think. Making people swallow the whale was a joy.

And most of them don't come to the west or get translated well.

I still have a soft spot for rigging a school competition by repeatedly divebombing the leader off the side of a cliff so that they missed it. That cliff needed a good five minute climb again too.

The day I figured out that you can use the one shout/aoe knockback skill that doesn't do damage to push people around without breaking their the synchronized dancing training was the best day. I pushed so many groups off the drat waterfall

I forgot I made a chrome extension that replaces all instances of the words "the economy" with "rich people's yacht money" and this made reading this exponentially better.


EDIT: There's also immortal way of life which is probably the closest thing to "cultivator sim" out there. Translation is rough cause devs harded coded a bunch of strings, but it's passable and I'm finalizing work on the mod to deal with the last hold outs.
