doomisland posted:Then why do I have it downloaded right now Did you pre-order one of the packs on Steam? I think people who applied a alpha code from Amazon, can download now. Pre-orders on Steam have to wait. So correction there, I think it has to do with the way Steam handles pre-orders.

Their class selection for release is weird. No Arcana and no Destroyer?

Start of the alpha got pushed back, Amazon doesnt have a time when the servers will be online, but everyone should be able to download the alpha now that pre-ordered, or got a code.

I went to check Steam discussions and there's a thread complaining about Amazon asking the developers to include more diversity when it comes to character customization and NPCs you interact with.

Feeling sorry for the devs currently trying to rescue their 2 day alpha test from what ever this issue is. Two and a half hours without a "we've identified the issue and know how long it's going to take to fix" probably makes for a stressful time behind the scenes

This alpha test is 5 days not 2. They're fine. edit: VVVVVV i lied about not going to participate in this alpha, got a key too. I figured i should at least see how performance looks like for me since i have an old graphic card.  50Gb , drat but at least steam servers are fast. madstrike fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Jun 12, 2021 |

eonwe posted:is the monetization as egregious as it looks with them selling a $100 pack Well, Smilegate is a gacha company ...they're the ones that made Epic Seven. The packs should probably be thought as, if you think you're going to ever spend money on the cash shop...definitely get one. Going by the RU prices, the Gold one is insane value just from the crystals and you get everything else added. Do note that the pets (auto loot, etc) and mounts can be gotten for free. Not sure if you get costumes for free ...and yes, they give stats and can help meeting gearing thresholds at endgame, from what i've read. I'm sure that streamers/youtubers who play or played in Korea/Russia will have more info about this eventually. EDIT: By the way, by default they have Left Mouse as Attack and Right Mouse as Move...which is loving weird if you're used to other ARPGs. You can reverse it and keep you sanity. madstrike fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Jun 12, 2021 |

madstrike posted:50Gb , drat but at least steam servers are fast.   But yea, Steam servers are ridiculously fast.I'm firing it up shortly, hope the servers are up. I've been so psyched for this game I can't help but feel like I'm going to be let down somehow.  [EDIT:] They're up! (I think, at the character screen). This game is pretty.

I just finished the prologue. I held out on playing the KR/RU versions and i'm pretty pleased so far. The combat feels just as good as expected from what i'd seen from videos or streams. Still getting used to it tho edit: pleased enough to sometimes forget about the alpha watermarks on the screen

In case anyone is wondering, Summoner is the "temp pets for 10-20 seconds" style not any sort of permanent ones.

One thing I'm running into is a lot of non-smooth gameplay (some micro stutter). My specs are fine so I'm wondering if the game isn't super optimized yet? Shadows aren't jacked up which I know can cause issues.
