    just RIP this game already. It died on alpha, ramake, died again on "release", remake and it will die again. It has a concept wich is not working.

    I believe the goal is to offer both a TERA-like combat system, and a tab-targeting system. Sort of like GW2.

    I hate Steam. It just feels like in order to play a game, I have to first do so by entering a High School class.

    So disappointing that they are pushing to launch on Steam ASAP.

    The game is not ready - not for western standards.

    Here they are talking about "extremely greatful to so many bringing up points of concern" - but hey we'll launch ASAP on steam knowing that the game is not ready.

    Actions speak louder than words - if they were really concerned about the feedback, they'd delay the launch about another year to get it ready.

    I really had high hopes for Bless when they pulled it offline and started full blown rework to fix both technical (which are fixed) and game issues - but nope - seems like they have not learned their lesson - western audience will take a massive DUMP on Bless due to obvious issues that they are not addressing.

    Just wait til the players see the state of the game world - as in how completely empty it is outside of questing areas. There's zero excuse for that.
    With the tremendous amount of success of early-access on Steam in the west, do you really blame them?

    Probably the biggest thing is that its been around so long already and pretty much launched 2-3? in the past yet still isn't ready.

    Steam EA is going to launch "as soon as possible"

    You know what? I'm ok with this. I'm not sure if it will help their cause with other players but I can handle it and I'm excited to step into the world and make my own way. I mean, there was a poster here who said his time with the game was some of the most fun he'd ever had. I think that says a lot given its current state. I'm going to go on the assumption that he is very much like me. Now "others" should probably stay away. Oh, they won't and they will come to the forums and complain but they really should do themselves a favor and stay away.

    Would delaying another year make it that much better for what it would cost? The western audience will take a massive dump on most every MMO. 
    I'm pretty sure at this point that some of the Western gamers pick up new games for that exact purpose lol.

    My SWTOR referral link for those wanting to give the game a try. (Newbies get a welcome package while returning players get a few account upgrades to help with their preferred status.)

    As for the world being completely empty, yes that is true, but you get flying mounts at endgame so most don't notice it as much. 

    The biggest issue is optimization imo. It has been a weak point of Bless since the start, and continues to be so now. All previous versions died largely in part due to it, especially Russia.
