Np! When downloading the jp. What helped for me was disconnect the vpn and the download stop. Click on proceed when downloading with my own ip it went faster!

I cant stop taming everything I see :P.. You need taming scrolls for it but I got enchanting and can make them myself! You got taming scrolls for - lvl 15, -lvl 35 and I think one for 45.

Im almost lvl 20 so I can pick the healing elite (no idea what its called) You can equip one elite at the time and dps elite gives:

OP - can you talk about how there are huge portions of the map all aroud you that are just - completely empty?

Like no grass or trees, just blank terrain... like completely unfinished?

See the ridge in the background how its just blank, no its not the graphics setting that shows no grass or trees in the distance - it is actually completely bare and empty when you go up there and look around.

Most of the game world is like that....

Yeh! But I dont got the feeling most of the world is like that. Still lvl 20, and autopath.

Game looks nice and the taming looks like a fun thing to do.

I like the aesthetics but far too much of a solo kill quest grinder with static combat and nowadays I'm not even lasting 5 hours playing those games.

TaishiFox · November 2017

I thought English OBT was coming out soon?

Yeh! But I dont got the feeling most of the world is like that. Still lvl 20, and autopath.

I ran across the entire map - for hours - the vast majority of the map IS like that - they just left the default generated terrain in - didn't even put in a single blade of grass - it's just completely bare base texture on terrain.

Also - go dive underwater - see those oceans - completely empty terrain underwater - no fish, no coral, not a single blade of grass - just empty default generated terrain that completely bare.

They created this HUGE map - and then spent all their time on *tiny* areas within the map as far as putting in NPCs, grass, trees etc.. 80%+ is EMPTY

This is not going to be ok with western playerbase

This is what most of the game is like

Look at the areas below - again that's not lack of trees or grass because of distance - when you go run up on that hill in the background and stand on it - it's completely bare like that - zero grass/trees/shrubs.... and for miles and miles - the map is like that.

Yes, you are defenitely right with that. I also got the Impression that about 80% of the map is empty, no Vegetation, no trees, no Littles livings that would rendet the world more immersive. Is there any Information on improving that? I know the game uses the Unreal Engine 3, which makes the game quite slow and Hardware demanding. Maybe Addition of Vegetation would make it unplayable for many Systems?

I also do not understand any asian language.

Is there also any Information/timeline when the playable races like e.g. sirens and iblis will be released? Maybe here is some native Speaker reading this and who can provide more Information on timelines.

I like the different races (except the Mascu which are too childish for me, typical for asian games unfortunatey).... damn it, how I whish that there would be a true, nicely made " The Dark Eye / Das Schwarze Auge" MMORPG with truely western, mature (less nonsense exagerated, childish) fantasy style.... but I must admint that Bless Online Looks less rediculous compared to other asian-style MMORPGs out there .

Azaron_Nightblade · November 2017

The empty world thing is something the devs should at least acknowledge and talk about. I imagine the plan is to eventually fill it out more, but until they address it, it's always going to be something people can bash their game for.

They should've restricted access to finished regions, a la BDO. And screw the whiny bitches that cry over invisible walls IMO.

Most games have the option to turn nameplates off.

Pretty sure you can turn that off in options, like on most MMO's.
That would take effort though. Complaining is much easier.

Cryomatrix · November 2017

The game looks amazing. I like the art style and graphics, but this is probably a generic game, no different than the rest. Which is why I think that a conglomerate of AAA publishers, pushing out a huge and completed MMO would work. It seems all these companies, reinvent the wheel, and add a few wrinkles and call it a new game. The reinventing of the wheel seems to be a copy-cat.
