    They took a pure fantasy game, added tropical shirts,  racing cars, jet packs etc

    My point is they couldn't of killed the fantasy setting any more if they tried, and opposite of fantasy is sci fi

    yeah I agree during the development everything about the game looked like it was going to be a pure fantasy game, then they added cars, bikinis, tropical shirts and so on lol.. kind of turned it into a joke..

     

    Still I will check they game out when its released over here.

    These racing cars are steam powered right? So are some of the farm vehicles and other transport options in game.

    Is there "jet packs" in the game or are you referring to the gliders?

    So the tropical shirts bother you that much as to start a post about it? If that bothered you that much i would suggest just staying away from this game all together.

    And i never saw anything from XLGames that said what type of fantasy setting this game would be in.

    Fantasy setting seems to be fine and intact.

    Don't forget scuba gear, tractors, modern sunglasses and other entirely non-fantasy related crap.. the game looked brilliant like a year ago, the new idiotic additions have entirely ruined my anticipation for the game.

    i think  jet pack is a loose term for that item. not in the least game breaking.

    I dont understand. Did you people think this was goin to be some sort of high sword fantasy game? Like a might and magic type of game? Take a look at the landscape of the game. there were elements of steam punk throughout the game.

     

    Nothing game breaking ( for me ) that iv seen. So if you think you wount enjoy your time in AA, then stay away from it. dont bother buying the game or even goin to there main/fan sites. Those of us that like that game for what it is, dont want your input or influence.

    Hahaha logic and maturity, on a mmorpg site.

    The whole concept of MMORPG.com runs on the idea that, if you hate something, it doesn't interest you,  and or you quit something, instead of being mature about it and simply walking away from it, you stay and whine constantly. Because studies have shown whining about a game setting and core mechanic like combat for example HAS resulted in the developer changing it, especially when the whining are from overseas player. That same study also showed that, players are 83% times more likely to inject their fantasy into statements made by developers or inferred by them and whine when those fantasies are simply just fantasies. The study also shows that players that are hyped up for a game are 83% more likely to be the trolls when those fantasy are proven false.

    Since when was it pure fantasy?

    It has always had vehicles and steampunk elements to it.

    This is so not Fantasy like. I mean take the classic Fantasy games out there like...your know Final Fantasy. Imagine the outrage if you would see cars in that or worse choppers of something!

    Cars,  jetpacks, modern clothes? 

    I've been hyped for this game for years, and now this?

    Can't wait! Seriously, what MMORPG is that serious about keeping pure fantasy. Maybe NW and CU, but the whole sci-fi fantasy I really enjoy. 

    Allods Online had great sci-fi fantasy theme, but just the game itself was bad.

    I'll enjoy the cars and jetpacks, anyone who objects can simply not play the game right?

    To be honest, I laughed when I saw this.

     

    While I'm for creative freedom with one's own game, it also has to be realized that people have preconceived notions when they see pictures and information about games.  Many thought this was a Medieval or even Fantasy like game, but then the introduction of hot rods was a bit over the top.  It completely ruined many people's interest in the world as they probably had the wrong idea to begin with.

     

    When I first saw that video, all I could imagine is the worst of it in that I was a knight on my horse, looking onto a castle in the distance... and then suddenly a hot rod pulls up and the person inside goes "Trolololo knights on horse back", then rides up with a trail of steam following him.

     

    That image just made me sad.

    Due to frequent travel in my youth, English isn't something I consider my primary language (and thus I obtained quirky ways of writing).  German and French were always easier for me despite my family being U.S. citizens for over a century.  Spanish I learned as a requirement in school, Japanese and Korean I acquired for my youthful desire of anime and gaming (and also work now).  I only debate in English to help me work with it (and limit things).  In addition, I'm not smart enough to remain fluent in everything and typically need exposure to get in the groove of things again if I haven't heard it in a while.  If you understand Mandarin, I know a little, but it has actually been a challenge and could use some help.

    Also, I thoroughly enjoy debates and have accounts on over a dozen sites for this.  If you wish to engage in such, please put effort in a post and provide sources -- I will then do the same with what I already wrote (if I didn't) as well as with my responses to your own.  Expanding my information on a subject makes my stance either change or strengthen the next time I speak of it or write a thesis.  Allow me to thank you sincerely for your time.

    Yeah i just find it funny how the addition of the steam powered car was the breaking point for all these people lol. I would think they would have more issues with the feature that people can add things like billboards with Justen Bieber on it or putting a huge vagina on the sails of your ship.

    So, motorcycles and helicopters are perfectly OK in WoW but for some reason cars or buggies are a complete disaster in ArcheAge?

    correct me if im wrong but i dont think the cars work like that. i think they get over heated and fail. you cant drive them for very long. If thats NOT the case, please inform me of how the cars really work. Lex would know more about the cars then i would. ether way, still not game breaking ( for me )

    And Archeage was always this super serious cinematic game right?

    It never was. This is just double standards at their finest because "zomg those evil wacky Asians r ruining our uppity western needs"

     

    Let's just put a green orc in the game so the whiners can praise it lol.
