/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Japanese people can not into programming I guess.

Because japs can see that the genre is shit.

>>10454951
MMOs are the pinnacle of video games.

>>10454946
Japs might be programing for Koreans...

>>10454942
All you need is ECO.

Japan doesn't like PC gaming

>>10454946
I remember reading about the guys who translated Okami having a ton of trouble because the source code was so sloppy..
I guess the Japs refuse to format/comment their code.

Compared to who?

How many MMO games France or Germany or UK made?

It's only Koreans who are making tons of crappy ones.

Because you'd have to compete against PSO2, MH and FFXI/XIV

>>10454995
>How many MMO games France
Wakfu and Dofus, the only games outside of Korea to be kawaii and sekushii.

>>10455034
>XIV

If mmos are so prevalent in otaku cartoons why is /jp/ not allowed to talk about mmos?

>>10455307
/q/, and I don't even mean that ironically, it was rule imposed by people posting on /q/.

>>10455313
I thought /jp/ was allowed to talk about Japanese MMOs. Unless that changed recently and I missed the memo.

>>10455111
Oh look, it's this little kid again.

Shouldn't you be posting in Washoru with your fellow idiotic posters.

Speaking of PSO2, the English version is supposed to be out early this year. Anyone planning to play it?

>>10455341
I guess it was complained about again. I do remember it was fine around September or October.

>>10455345
Yes, of course.

The board will finally have a game to make threads about that's ok according to the rules.

>>10455307
>>>/q/390973

>>10455345
Is it as shitty as PSOBB?

>>10454942
They rely on Korea for their anime, so they rely on them for MMOs too. That and they prefer JRPGs. MMOs are similar to western RPGs moreso than JRPGs.

I have a serious question regarding Japan and Korean MMORPGs.

How come so many Japanese anime are allowed/licensed to have costumes and promotions in Korean MMOs? Do Japanese MMOs get as many anime costumes and promotions?

isn't TERA f2p starting today? or is that shit korean?

i get all those crazy gooks mixed up

>>10455097
Gomenasai, but Dofus is really bad.
If you want to play these kinds of games for free without suffering a really strong case of ``Pay to win'', I would go with Spiral Knights.

>>10455372

It went F2P in North American yesterday. Europe recently as well. But yeah, that's korean.

>>10455372
Every anime style mmo is korean. Japan only makes "realistic" style major mmos, like Chinese mmos.

By the way, Gravity (Raganrok Online) is owned by a Japanese company. Do you guys think that make it Japanese enough, since Japan is basically in charge of its development now.

>>10455342
Don't even talk to me nerd.

>>10454976
but the servers were shut down

>>10455370
Koreans are really strong weeaboos. It's strong enough to the point where you have korean light novels like Clotaku Club which was written by a korean otaku for other korean otaku.

As far as japanese MMOs, there really aren't very many to begin with and most don't have the cash to afford anime promotional items. I think PSO2 probably has Hatsune Miku, considering it's Sega, that's about the only thing I can think of.

Latale is the only Japanese MMO I prefer over Korean ones.

somebody please be my friend

play netoge with me please

ill play any netoge with you

please

>>10455383
Is that the reason Ragnarok Online 2 is trash that makes it look like the developer completely forgot what made the original game good?

Where's my 2D sprites on a 3D environment?
Where's my smooth, fast paced gameplay with awesome 3D effects?
Where's my hundred man WoE?
Where's my music!? I mean, they did get Yoko Kanno to do some songs, but...
Where's SoundTeMP!?

So Japan ruined my MMO? Tch.

>>10455370
>Is it as shitty as PSOBB?

PSO2 is pretty damn awesome actually. The Japanese version has been handling the cash shop pretty well, and they came through with their promise of updates.

If the English versions do the same, should be a fun time.

>>10455456
LaTale is overrated MapleStory kiddy tier crap and isn't Japanese. Fuck off.

>>10455461
Why don't you play with THIS instead? *whips out dick*

>>10455461
You did not fill in the e-mail field for contact. Not that I'm thinking of joining in or anything.

Wasn't Cosmic Break Japanese?
Also the only MMO I really like so far is Mabinogi, too bad it's Korean.
I'm waiting for PSO2 for the gaijins, Soul Worker and Blade&Soul, I'm sure the last 2 are Korean.

>>10455383
Gravity's Headquarters and major planning still comes from Korea.

GungHo only bought a bit more than 52.4% of Gravity by now.

You can only discuss legit JP exclusives if the rule is to be enforced to the max.

I played TERA recently. It's good for fapping to slutty elves but the game is so boring. I don't understand how people can play these games without feeling lobotomized.

>>10455497
Soul Worker looks like a carbon copy of Rusty Hearts, which in turn was a semi-ripoff of DFO and a mediocre one at that.

Both are very uninteresting, I personally am waiting for the first two too and it looks like ArcheAge is also winning by a lot in Korea along with B&S.

>>10455509
The game is an outright B&S ripoff created from stolen material that was planned for future games line Lineage 3 and B&S. It also has the most uninteresting Race exclusives I've ever seen in a MMO, and I'm including ancient shit like Lineage 2.

People like to eat shit for breakfast all the time in 4chan, you should get used to it.

There are so few MMO titles from Japan because MMO's are still predominately PC titles, and PC gaming is extremely niche in Japan.

Saying "I'm a PC gamer" in Japan is basically saying "I'm an eroge otaku".

>>10455034
I think this Anon is correct.

>>10455516
Elin are uninteresting to you? They were the main reason I even considered playing Tera.

Tera is not a rip-off of B&S. As someone who has hit the cap for both games, the setting and gameplay are quite different.

I only play an mmorpg on how cute your character can be. If I were looking for gameplay I'd try another genre.

>>10455509
I'm playing Tera now that it's F2P.
When I tried it in open beta I found it really boring and unimpressive gameplay wise, but everything else was very well done. The scenery especially was very beautiful. Now that I'm trying it again, to be honest I'm really loving it. It's become addicting even. I have a nice small group of friends to play it with, so maybe that's why I'm so into it. I can see how playing it alone after a few days might get boring. But Tera actually isn't as bad as I used to think it was.

Plus, lolis. Lolis everywhere.

>>10455550
If you read again, I was referring to the horribly dumb and generic exclusive racial skills and modifiers.

Why do you think NCSoft sued Bluehole and won? A lot of the setting and other stuff was borrowed directly from Lineage 3 development, not trying to defend NCSoft or anything since their real Lineage 3 is crap and made out after the Bluehole fiasco, but saying TERA didn't borrow anything is pretty far off when it was clearly proven in court and everything.

>>10455560
Forgot to mention. Elin sux.

http://www.mmoculture.com/2012/10/ade-soul-early-lyn-race-artwork-sws-a-different-vibe/

They couldn't even find out a way to replicate Lyns without sounding generic and unimpressive. The overall concept was borrowed from B&S and it shows.

>>10455560
Ah shoot, I see now. I never think about those when creating a character anyway.

>>10455563
No, fuck that. In B&S, the only type of costumes you can get for your lyn are uncute boring doboks. They also aren't as cute and not sexualized at all.

>>10455463
It's just a shame because the English version is probably going to never be released. There hasn't been a single word on it since the announcement last year, and if SoA keeps up its track record they're going to do an absolutely shitty job with this one too like they did with PSU.

>>10455588
I admit they put a lot of effort into TERA, specially in the costume department. But really, I actually have to agree with lesser Boards in 4chan.

TERA flopped really badly, there was a lot of effort put into it, however they lost too much money and they still have two different servers for full f2p instead of merging and stopping the whole regional bullshit. Hence why it's called TERAtanic.

Anyone can do WoW tier costumes for cute characters anyway. I also have a lot more to look forward in B&S rather than just cute kemono girls stealing the show and nothing else worth mentioning at all.

>>10455605
Also, if you haven't heard the news, TERA is pretty much flopping everywhere.

Blade and Soul is actually the current highest profit and popular MMO in Korea, the only real competitor in there is ArcheAge, which is second in popularity.

>playing asian mmo for any reason other than looking at your character
i think some of you are getting into the wrong game genre

was having a lot of fun with my lancer/archer. only got to level 16 so im going to reroll on these new servers because why not.

>>10455501
>You can only discuss legit JP exclusives if the rule is to be enforced to the max.
So there's going to be MMO monitors going to research every MMO and decide if it's Korean or not or something? Or is saying it's Korean going to be good enough? It's not like the mods could tell if you were lying without putting in actual effort.

>>10455605
don't forget this http://www.youtube.com/playlist?li=PLB9D1B49C7AB15BC9

>>10455628
Don't ask me.

I'm just stating the facts. The new Janitors must be in training, and the other ones must be busy or sleeping right now.

Try asking /q/.

loading:The Game Rolling for bonus stats above 10 edition

so far im finding it fun

Are there any MMOs where you can play with Japanese people? Or online games of any type. I just want to practice my Japanese.

>>10455563
Why can't we have badass things?

The fuck is this RO ripoff in the background though?
http://dragonsaga.gsquare.com/

>>10455630
I generally try to avoid ads, but these still haunt me.

I'm just biased towards B&S anyway, you can play your cute Lyn ripoffs all you want. Even ad presentation was perfect, I can't help it.

>>10455638
I'd rather have no mmo threads allowed than allow wizardry spammer to win. MMOs that don't have moe aren't worth playing.

>>10455644
It's Dragonica.

They added Ragnarok related content.

>>10455645
There used to be Japanese in SOE's Wizardry Online. They used broken English until we met him again and someone was actually bothering to translate what he could say in Japanese.

I think they got region locked though.

http://www.waguruma.jp/

You could try Waguruma.

>>10455633
It's not even a fact. They need to post ON /jp/ ITSELF before anyone is going to take them seriously or even be aware at large.

>>10455655
Yeah I don't know why are we still following a "ghost" rule that is still to be listed in the official list.

Nobody really discusses JP exclusives.

>>10455650
moe fucking sucks

>>10455660
You fucking suck.

>>10455650
Shut up.

>>10455650
what are you talking about wizardry is pretty moe the gnome and porkul are pretty cute

>>10455669
Yes it is. Too bad it sucks.

>>10455666
Stop right there criminal scums

b&s looks so cute

great animations

its a yamame dress

>>10455669
>>10455666
The porkys are ugly typical psuedo-loli race for those without balls to make real lolis.

The gnomes are neither cute nor resemble anything I would call a gnome. If you want a magic using sheep woman, this is much cuter. Is Trickster Japanese, btw?

>>10455662
sorry, i'm not in the mood to suck

>>10455713
It's not like you have a saying in this matter.

>>10455710
Trickster is Korean.

It is highly popular in Japan and is also dying in the west.

Pic related. The only thing remotely good about that game.

>>10455714
are you coming onto me!?

>>10455724
Are you ?

>>10455718
Is there anything that doesn't die in the west?

Can we still post about Japanese fanart/doujinshi of Korean games? Cause I think Mil is a pretty cool guy.

>>10455733
You just posted it.

And maybe Mabinogi 1.

>>10455733
mmos themselves is a dying genre

My friend wants to play TERA, I don't really like MMOs but is it worth making a slutty character to run around with him?

>>10455767
No.

Fuck your friend.

>>10455645
The Final Fantasy MMOs worked pretty well for that, but I'm not sure if XIV 2.0 will have global servers again. Either way it will be possible to play on Japanese servers. The Beta is starting this month and while people like >>10455111 are greentexting it 2.0 is pretty much a completely different game so I'll wait how it turns out. The downside is that it it's gonna have a monthly fee.

>>10455786
The problem is that there has never ever been a sequel that was good in the entire history of MMORPGs. With maybe the exception of Lineage 2, but I'm sure there's plenty of people out there saying L1 was better.

Vindictus is a prequel/sidegame so it doesn't really count.

>>10455370
>pso2
>shit
never played it right? get the fuck out

>They rely on Korea for their anime,
they do the menial work for some shows while the japanese actually creates anime
>MMOs
grindy as hell with mediocre gameplay

>>10455497
cosmic break is japanese

>>10455794
PSO2 is a sequel, if you count PSO as an MMO.

>>10455603
SoA?

Since were doing an MMO thread I might as well ask..

Is Dragonball Online any good?

>>10455353
>>10455345
Speaking of which, will the English version be F2P like the Jap version? I played it during the beta, and I want to keep my kawaii little moelet. Hopefully the character build data will be compatible at least.

>>10455921
Sega of America
>>10455967
>will the English version be F2P like the Jap version?
Why would it not be?

>>10455971
>Why would it not be?
For lack of a better substitute, Jews.

Who gives a shit. mmos and videogames are for nerds, and we are not nerds.

>>10455992
I need to do something in my downtime when I come back from black ops around the world. I also get intel though MMOs as they're the channels you wouldn't expect for comms.

>>10455962
You start out at a really young age. And then you really become like Goku.

That's when people I know usually quit.

>>10455985
This is why I'm still scared of PSO ever coming out of Japan.

How would they even get money if they go for an International version? They would lose it.
Cash shop isn't all that great either, it won't suffice to give them any profit.

They got angry at PSU since they kept dropping in subs and PSO2 was hinted.

>>10455962
No idea, but its technically Korean so we wouldn't be able to talk about it openly anyway.

I think it's still trying to get into beta. Or at least info is hard to come by.

>>10455971
>Sega of America

Don't have much experience with them, why should they be worse off then Japan's SEGA?

Sides, worse comes to worse the English patch is still going strong I guess,

>>10456006
This is the president of SoJ. I don't need to show you out what SoA's president looks like, but they often have conflicts with each other.

Play with Hotglue on Tera Lake of Tears, we have a guild up. pm Muramasa or Chinchen for invites

Did you miss Cosmic Break? Cyberstep is making a new mmo, Onigiri Online:

I'm not that eager to try another Cyberstep game but that does look interesting.

Though I'd rather ply with Mecha musume.

>>10456331
ahaha oh wow see you guys there

>>10456331
Is it released, open beta or what?

Any point in downloading the file on the site?

>>10456331
Looks like a Mebius Online ripoff.

>>10456377
It was released for some alpha test yesterday, and the website only went up last week. In other words, news about it just came out. You can download the client for the japanese version I guess.

>>10456331
I just clicked on something that looks like a setup.

What the hell man, can we play already?

bad for business

>>10456331
Those graphics are so 2004.

>>10456380
Holy shit, what a ripoff.

Why do you think you're "winning" anything?

You have only yourself to blame if you follow any kind of nonsensical nazism rules.

You're killing /jp/ for many while you're also actually helping me.

By doing this, you facilitate access to my Steam group. And nothing of value was lost to me.

>>10456464
I sure hope I somehow get in the July's beta test.

Does anyone know who started that guild for TERA from /jp/? I saw hotglue listed on the /vg/ thread and was wondering if it's the original hotglue people or just someone using the name.

I don't keep up with the irc/steam drama so I don't know who's who these days.

>>10456479
What's the difference? It's always people reviving something dead that doesn't belong to them.

>>10456479
> original hotglue people

I don't even know what people mean by "original" hotglue anymore. everyone has their own idea of which people are "original" depending on which was their first game they played with "hotglue"

>>10456479
We've never recruited in /vg/. We were trying to get /jp/ together on Tera but because of the new rules it's not that easy. The Hotglue on LoT is from IRC. Just send an application under the guild menu or pm Muramasa/Chinchen/Waah. See you there /jp/

>>10456331
how I get into the characters screen?
I want to see if there's any cute girl to play as

>>10456479
there is a /jp/ guild on tempest reach called please respond

>>10456487
True enough, I just wanted an idea of who was in the guild. I was worried it was just a circlejerk of friends who decided to use the hotglue name and say they're from /jp/.

I thought hotglue wanted to stay away from /vg/ so it was weird when I saw them listed in the thread.

>>10456327
Please don't misuse spoilers crossboard friend

moot explicitly ordered you to keep hotglue out of /jp/. Please stop talking about it.

There's also the Japanese Bird Cooking Spaghetti guild on LoT

>>10456535

>>10456519
What's with the 30mb? The game doesn't weigh anything.

Or am I in for another update?

>>10456540
Oh, never mind.

>>10456543
That name. The more I hear about Tera the less I want to play it.

I made a character a week ago and reached level 47. No chance in hell in going through that work on a new server. If anyone on mt wants to play later I'll be up for it but it looks like I'll mostly be playing alone still

>>10456548
I'm pretty sure you can just transfer your character.

>>10456561
I don't think you can transfer to the new servers

>>10456519
I love how the string on the mouse cursor has it's own physics.

Anyway, time to see if this is fun.

It is pretty nice.
I seem to have run into an unspecified error while trying to finalize my character creation.
Could it be I need to wait until the little download bar is finished?

>>10456600
When I finished making my character, the big blue download bar reappeared.
I have no idea what the little red bar is.

They don't.

They just don't tastelessly churn out hundreds of them every year.

>>10456616
Seems like writing my name in kana was the problem, so I typed in English instead.

I wish the game would just download from the start instead of giving me constant updates like this.

Am I cute?

I can't get into the registration screen, what you mean with the ''bottom button''?

All I see is that big button where is the download one

>>10456739

There's 4 builds and male/female. Beefy dude, glamor chick, slender dude, slender chick, young boy, young girl, average boy, average girl. Slender is the tallest, young shortest.

This is the young girl in slut clothes since I think you guys will want that most.

>>10456806
That's ingame to register.

The big button in teaser web should link you to the download. Easy to find it since it's right in front when you load it.

http://onigiri.cyberstep.jp/teaser

>>10456806
After you download it, install it, after you install it, run it, after you run it, use the bottom button here . . .

Oh, i can't show you without quitting my download. It's the bottom button on the login screen.

I'm stuck on this screen when I try to log in and it's been like this for hours.

Oh well, it's not like I wanted to play with you nerds anyway!

>>10456817
Did you manage to go in-game? It's stuck on the loading screen for me.

>>10456831
I've been stuck at this screen for at least 30 minutes.

>>10456838
Same.
Well, if something is happening, post about it.
I'll try again later or tomorrow.

Anybody playing TERA together but alone?

>>10456827
The site has a message about it.. I wish it would be fixed soon.

>>10456817
You get to run around ingame or it's just the character creation?

>>10456831
nah, it's still downloading, it just lets you mess around with the character builder while you wait.

>>10456850
I need a guild when I do manage to log on.

>>10456850
Mostly alone, since I don't feel like starting over on the new servers just yet.

>>10456861
I don't think you grasp the concept of playing together but alone.

>>10456850
What are you asking exactly? I'm playing alone on the new NA pvp server.

>>10456866
Well now that you tell me I'm wrong, I think I know the alternative meaning.
But I can't really do either if I can't log in.

I won't be able to play Tera until saturday but if anyone wants to add me as a friend on MT my sign is emaka

I'm level 47 but if you have a problem with a pker or something and I'm not busy with something I'll get them for you

>>10456895

>>10456895
Probably Lake of Tears if you want to play on a PvP server because it's new, and doesn't have the level 60s ganking you in the starter area.

>>10456945
So which class is shit in PVP in Tera?

>>10456949
If you want to solo pvp or duel, whatever you do, do not pick Zerker. That's all I can tell you.

It does seem odd that Japan hasn't released many. Furthermore, I'm surprised that there aren't more that try to do anything in a more unique manner. There are quite a few shitty MMO options. The main problem is probably that the goal is to make money, not make a good game.

>>10457012
What's your name? You can be the brave one.

>>10457023
if i see you you will find out

>>10457036
please guest to jade quarry and meet up with me where the drake eats the old fisherman

>>10457039
I don't know where that is... I have only been in a few areas.

>>10457048
It's directly south of lion's arch. Just beside the frog juicer.

>>10457054
I think I saw someone and I got really scared and ran away. I'm sorry I am just too shy.

>>10457061
It's okay. I know you don't actually have the game.

>>10457065
I really do and I would really like to grind with someone, but it's just so darn hard.

>>10457068
No you don't.

Finally got in. Just alt-f4'd and restarted the game.

>>10457070
But I do. I really do!

>>10457076
Take a screenshot of your character then.

>>10457081
That wouldn't prove anything. I could just a take random screenshot from anywhere if I wanted to fake it. Please believe me.

>>10457090
Fine, whisper to yourself "please respond" and take a screenshot of the chat box. Black out your name if you want.

this is getting interesting guys
please don't stop

>>10457109
See? I think this should satisfy your requirements. Gosh, you're so picky.

>>10457109
Trolled hard loser

>>10457132
?

>>10457131
Are you already on jade quarry?

>>10457138
Well yeah, but like I said: I got scared and ran away.

>>10457141
That's okay, you can stay hidden. I'm not going to come find you.

>>10457156
That kind of hurt my feelings a little but, but OK. I understand.

>>10457166
I can't do anything about you running away.

Please remember to use the sage function when it is appropriate.

In other news, Tera login issues have been resolved.

Just as expected...the new Cyberstep is mediocre and subpar as fuck compared to other MMOs.

>>10457208
Thanks for the notice.

>>10457208
Who are you to tell what others have to do with email field?

Has anyone managed to join a decent guild on Lake of Tears?

>>10457074
Oh hey, that worked

>>10457208
It only took them all day.

Also, I forgot just how much stress TERA puts on my computer.

>>10455786
>implying I was greentexting without having played 2.0

I was in alpha for it and can guarantee you its not a completely different game, same gigantic piece of shit with a slightly retuned interface. Stay owned faglet.

So how is 鬼斬 as a game? We've established you can make cute girls in it, but I think no one write their thoughts about the gameplay and interaction with other /jp/ers.

>>10457247
It is NOT very good.

It's very buggy and somehow has no options whatsoever, there's an intense framerate drop in many areas with a really high end PC.

Gameplay itself is like a overly simplified, but at the same convoluted version of Mebius. Instead of picking a Class in name like any other normal MMO, you pick a focus on stats, based on that you receive starting weapons and change them with f button.

Also, customization is so poor, pretty much everyone has the same horns and robes as me.

>CyberStep

>>10457260
> intense framerate drop in many areas with a really high end PC
You've just saved me from a lot of trouble, thank you.
> pretty much everyone has the same horns and robes as me.
Maybe they achieved the pinnacle of Moe no one has ever achieved before?

>>10457208
My friend is still getting unable to connect to login server. I'm not sure what else I can think of to try.

How are people making foxes?

>>10457270
I kind of like the horns and those robes and all, but I really find it annoying that there is so little customization.

There is also no lag in itself as far as I could play, killing monsters has been easy, it's running pretty smooth here except for the framerate shit that I really do not comprehend.

>>10457260
> intense framerate drop in many areas with a really high end PC

>>10457273
What levels are you and your friend?

>>10457279
It's a special set.

As for bugs, I'm laughing too much at the stupid shit I'm finding. I saw AND did the same thing I've seen people do...somehow you randomly get to airwalk around when you go downstairs in some areas, some areas lead you into pits that clip you thru the ground and you fall into a magical pit of buggyness, then respawn at the bridge you usually take to go out.

It's kind of like playing Ragnarok 2 all over again, the bad one.

>>10457289
He hasn't been able to get it to work. I'm making a new character.

>>10457260
In all fairness, the game is an alpha test right now.
The game is run by CyberStep though and will obviously be a massive jewfest once it's actually released.

>>10457305
why don't you call your friend to this thread too?
what a bad person you are

>>10457325
That doesn't excuse having 2001ish mechanics in a 2013 game. Why not implement an anti-ksing system, seriosly?

This is like BRish tier shit, everyone comes running towards the enemy you're dueling to ks it like retards. We have yet to find good spots to hunt.

>>10457368
And the controls are stiff as FUCK.

Probably the most stiff thing I've played in my life.

>>10457226
Nobody?

>>10457226

No because anybody established or returning is going to be on one of the old servers. I honestly doubt that many people, if any at all, rerolled to start fresh on Lake of Tears. If /jp/ wants to make a guild there then more power to you but you're not going to find somebody who's been playing for months to get a guild set up and invite everybody. You guys will have to plan it out yourselves.

>>10454995
>It's only Koreans who are making tons of crappy ones.
>Vindictus
>Maple
>Shitty

>>10457428
I'm not looking for a /jp/ made guild though. I'm just looking for a guild.

鬼斬 is ok, I'm looking forward to playing my flat chested teenaged horned girl in lingerie again but with all the KSing and server drops I'll wait awhile before I do it.

Also having a pet girl right from the start is nice but confusing since I kept following other people's pets instead of my party mate.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOOQhugGk

>>10457440

Then why ask here?

>>10457507
Because this thread is here.

>>10457440
>>10457556

This is a good argument for this thread not being here.

I made a new character on Lake of Tears and finally got out of the starting area. I'll play with anyone who's on the server.

>>10457682
I'm about to play too see you there.

>>10457682
why lake of tears?
the entire thread is saying nobody is playing in there

>>10457717
Re-read the thread.

>>10457717
But it seems like everyone is picking LoT for some reason.

>>10457682
I wish I could play with you but I usually only play in the mornings, about 10 hours from now.

>>10457739
Why only in the mornings?

I'm just going to be playing FFXIV 2.0 whether it's shit or not. I've been waiting for about 3 years for an MMO to replace XI, I don't want to wait anymore. MMOs these days all look crummy anyway.

>>10457755
It's already out?

>>10457767
No, but the closed beta's supposed to start later this month.

FFXIV pages has 9 pages of fanart on danbooru.
FFXI has 126.

I just want to play an MMO equivalent of Touhou again (ie. one with a rich secondary scene).

>>10457829
Just play RO.

>>10457829
he's right
>>10457836

RO has a LOT of fanarts and fapable things

>>10457846
Kind of old now though, isn't it? I want to get into something for the long haul.

>>10457853
It is super old, but there's a handful of private servers you can play on for free.

>>10457860
And don't forget the official server.

>>10457860
>It is super old

May as well just go back to XI then... the MMO industry has stagnated /sigh

>>10457860
what about RO2?
anyone played? any good?

>>10457746
Morning Otaku.

>>10457907
I'd rather not talk about it

>>10457907
it's shit

>>10457907
RO2 doesn't exist.

>>10457968
The worst thing about it is that they already tried twice and didn't event get near it being a good game on either occassion
Kind of makes you wonder how they ever managed to come up with something as good as the first game

>>10457972
the first one was actually pretty good
I'll miss the soundtrack

>>10457980
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIGHdAMc4
;_;

>>10458019
They released the teaser CD with those songs like 5 years ago or some huge amount of time ago. I've still got em on my hard drive from back then.

I like to pretend they will still make RO2 some day.

>>10458019
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzmGxXncE

>>10458019
someone post the battle music one

Are you TERA players having a good time?

>>10458098
Yup, it's fun playing alone.

>>10458098
No...

Tera still feels like all there is to do is to look at my character and jump around a bit.

I wish somebody would just play guild wars 2 with me instead of playing hard to catch extra-shy maiden.

>>10458133
GW2 is shit. Those of us with taste got refunds during beta.

Because their mmos suck

Tera has the absolute worst quests ever. Why anyone would pay to be fed a constant stream of warm, gooey shit is beyond me.

>>10458142
GW2 is only shit because anet lied way too much in their manifesto. The game becomes alright if you ignore about 80% of what they promised. They're also all incompetent at game design. Unfortunately though GW2 (and wow which is 9 years old now) are the most impressive mmos to date. Just goes to show how low mmos are right now.

>>10458098

Yes, I've been playing since launch.

>>10458136

The quests are pretty lack luster, but I really don't mind. I've leveled 7 60's and made countless alts that got deleted in their 20's-30's and have yet to be bored with it.

>>10458179
No, GW2 is shit because it's cool to hate it. I've never played it because I don't play shit games.

>>10458212

>>10458212
GW2 is shit because it's too easy and for casuals.

>>10458226
That's what happens when you rely on 1 single skill based gimmick (dodge button) for 100% of your content. If they really wanted to make GW2 skill based they could have added more universal moves like guarding, parrying, jump attacks that matter, hit stuns and more. Like fighting games.

>>10455513
It is, but I still want to give it a try.

>>10458225

When are B&S and PSO2 coming out?

Give me an MMO that doesn't need a nasa machine to run, that has cute stuff and a /jp/ guild/community.

>>10458365
Just beg mom or dad for a new computer, kid.

>>10458371
He didn't deserve that.

>>10458378
I'm sorry.

>>10458179
I've never seen a better game that Mabinogi, sure the old graphics are meh, but I like how you can be whatever you want without any problem.

>>10457682
I'm running around with Hotglue right now. I think most of the login errors are fixed too.

>>10458225
Isn't that gesture considered sexual and offensive in Japan?

Are people playing the US or EU version of TERA?

I woke up and played for a bit.

It's an interesting game but being in Alpha combined with the lag I have because the game is from Japan and the huge amount of people logged in right now makes it pretty much unplayable.

It has potential though, can't till Cyberstep throws it all away.

>>10458571
Lake of Tears is US pvp

>>10458575
What makes this unique or notable? Is it made in Java like the other Cyberstep games?

>>10458590
Well, I wouldn't say unique but the art and the music are nice, and I'm assuming without all the lags the combat system might be somewhat enjoyable.

The animations are pretty bad though, fighting the boss of the tutorial which is a huge dragon with a few heads and when he turns around instead of actually turning he just snaps and changes his angle.

It has that rather cheap feeling Cyberstep games tend to have if that's what you mean.

>>10457245
I was in alpha as well and you're talking out your ass.
3/10 for making me reply.

What could this possibly mean?

>>10458633
They want to censor stuff and make a shop for better personalization.
Ruin voices and stuff like that.

>>10458633
Basically make it more casual for western audiences. And of course censor it.

>>10457368
>Why not implement an anti-ksing system, seriosly?


The reason there will never be a game quite as good as ro is because of guys like this.
>I don't want anyone else to be able to hit my enemy
>I don't want anyone else to be able to pick up my drops
>I don't want anyone else to be in the dungeon with me
That and constraining monsters to an area so that they run back after you go far enough away is the reason MMOs are so boring. They're just like crappy themeparks that simulate MMOs.

Any /jp/ guilds in Tera EU?

I was under the impression that PSO2 was going to be linked together. Ie. you can select the language you want for the game using the client, and there will be ships dedicated to English speakers, ect.
The client has the option to select languages after all.

If that is the case why would it matter what SoA does? It'll still be managed by SoJ.

i have tried quiet a number of MMO's but still stick to World of Warcraft, anything else endet up in mindless grinding and farming after a month or so and had barely any contet.
I realy liked how tera and Aion looked but the developers should invest more into gameplay and content instead of pretty graphics or one game after another will fail.

>>10458875
But Mabinogi is not even about grinding.

I assume because it seems like not many Japanese people play MMOs. Is this true /jp/? What is the market for MMOs like over there? I've always wondered this.

>>10458133
>>10456887
>>10456889
>>10457012

If you girls left at least a character name, it'd make things much easier.

Add Forgreat Shakeitoff(random alt) if you want to meet up.

Who else GW2 here?

>>10458972

Also need to mention if EU or US server. Can't play together if on different regions. Anet lied about guesting being available across all servers...

>>10458945
It seems to be a generic thing for otaku to do, but considering at least the doujin side of thing, most they play seem to be Korean. RO, Mabinogi, TERA, those all get lots of art. It might be because the west can['t tag the JMMO things, but I get the feeling only PSO and FF11 are popular in terms of things considered actual MMOs and Japanese.

Some MMOs do occasionally get anime though. Master of Epic was apparently popular enough to get an anime. Made it seem kind of fun too. Too bad Japan onry.

Which is 90% of the reason it's hard to talk about Japanese MMOs.

>>10458773
I've played RO1 since early 2003 with free Sakray.

If you haven't even played this game then your argument is going nowhere. You haven't seen the shit I've seen. It's really ridiculous and unnaturally frustrating to play for an Action RPG, which is quite different from what RO1 is.

And yet again, they didn't take notes from good games like RO1. ALL stats are prefixed, you just pick a focus on creation and that's it...some even seem to be quite worthless.

There's also a few "instanced" areas, but there are fewer in this game than any other combined, you're supposed to spend quality time outside doing nothing but getting KSed.

You know what the worst part is? Even if you form a Party with someone else...you WILL get KSed. Kills from another player in your Party do NOT count towards your xp or total quest counts, you NEED to kill them yourself. This was even possible in RO1, this gave, it doesn't even give a FUCK that it sucks

TL;DR...it's shit. Deal with it.

>>10459161
I'm going to assume that there's only one channel right now because it's only the Alpha and by release there would be many more channels so KSing wouldn't a problem.

>>10459172
You know, that MIGHT be one solution.

The only problem is, there is NO channel selections or anything outside instanced areas. Why?

So basically you have a game with the most primitive MMO mechanics possible and it also refuses to be remotely playable.

>>10458984
Jade Quarry and Ferg's Crossing are US servers. I don't like how you misused the surprise box either. You sound like you post in /vg/ too much.

>>10459179
Also, you know a game is bad and fuckretardedly casual when Futaba hasn't even mentioned it EVER.

They even play that one CAPCOM Three Kingdoms browser ripoff, they're starting to discuss Mechwarrior Online, but NOT Onigiri.

>>10459179
>>10459200
I'm not going to say it's good, but with a little tweaks and fixes it can become somewhat enjoyable by the time it releases.

And I don't really care if Futaba talks about it or not but I guess I get what you're trying to say.

>>10459206
Well they're still excused since it's supposed to be an open Alpha/Beta. Why is it even open to begin with, can easily explain why this game has sucky features so far.

They must be desperate and looking for suggestions/tips on improving it, this game needs a LOT of work because it feels like an inferior version of Mebius Online with cute demonic girls.

It's just not fair how half-decent it looks and then it backstabs you with crappy, frustrating mechanics. Even PvE was better in Mebius since everything in there is channel based, THAT'S what they should have done.

>>10459200
>Futaba
>mattering

>>10459388
I'd rather listen to what Futaba says than the average shiteater crossboarder from TERA we get in here or any other English speaking web.

>>10459395
http://www.logsoku.com/r/mmominor/60237867/
The fact that you "listen to what Futaba says" makes you a fucking idiot, just FYI.

>>10458773
>>10457368
Personally I think if a game is heavily PvE/co-op based, it shouldn't even bother having an open world. Just use instances. For every one interesting person you meet, you get one hundred jerks and assholes.

>>10459419
Cry more. There's enough discussions and activity to justify an Onigiri one in Futaba and there's still none, all you will find in other sites are shit eaters.

>>10459441
Does it even have PvP planned?

>>10459395
Fuckin weeb.

>>10459161
>>10459172
Even more than that, the game's at a point where you're just testing if you can even kill shit. Yes quests should be doable, but an alpha is an alpha, they might make it so partners killing things does count for you.

Although, if they take anything from RO1, it should be a lack of "kill 30 x" quests. You just had to kill shit in RO and I think you got EXP even if someone else killed it but I don't remember.

>>10459625
It does have kill shit for free Quest XP completion. But since everyone KSes you, and partying doesn't share anything ever, it's really lame.

In RO1 you actually had a individual xp or share setting for party, which also helped when you needed to do repeatables, and believe me, if you played around x1 XP rate, those quests were OBLIGATORY.

In this game, all the quests seem to give piss poor XP and they're just there to see more dialogue lines from Story, receive items and maybe new partners/pets, which is very generic Japanese mythology stuff. You can get as much XP from ever getting kills.

>>10459441
>For every one interesting person you meet, you get one hundred jerks and assholes.

How do you even deal with being online let alone on 4chan? Being in any public situation exposes you to that. If you want a happy little world for you and your bestest buds, just play a multiplayer online game, not a massively multiplayer online game.

The massive means you're in a world full of all kinds of people, assholes and otherwise. It's part of the experience. If anything the heavily pvp ones should have multiple channels so people won't quit if they're being spawn camped or something, or to segregate them into reasonable levels.

>>10459197

>surprise box
>not misusing

Quoting my mind.

I only posted twice in gw2g. Too much avatarfagging.

>>10459691
It's funny because I have very little problems with heavily PvP/PK enabled games, while this game gives me nightmares with all the bugs, lag and KSing all over the minute world of Onigiri.

>>10459706
Well it's an alpha game. Deal with it or stop playing until it's completed enough to be called beta. Go post your whines on the forums so they can improve the game by then.

>>10459701
Quit that.

>>10459718
If I could PK people I would've dealt with it aeons ago.

And I can't type moonrunes properly enough to fill any huge reports on how this game sucks and they need to improve it. Easy for you to say that.

>>10455555
What a waste of 5s. tera is a shit game.

>>10459797
I like Tera so far but it seems to me that every other class other than Lancer, Sorc, and Priest is completely useless in PVE. Not to say that those 3 aren't fun to play but I hate it when 70% of the community just uses the class that people seem to be good with.

>>10459844
Sounds like guild wars 2 except it's warrior, guardian and mesmer. In that order.

>>10459844

No, not really. You're just playing with people who suck shit most likely. Berserkers are the best DPS, followed by sorcerer, and all of the other DPS do very well if they're played right. Priests are much better than mystics at healing, but mystics are better at support; both can heal all PvE content just fine. It's just that most people who play support are absolutely terrible and it would lead you to believe that priests are better because of their vast healing ability, when mystics come out on top for their contribution to DPS. Lancers are amazing though, I'll give you that. They can solo a good portion of the endgame content if their gear is up to snuff and have the ability. Warriors are good tanks too, but they have far less room for error than lancers do, and most new people who play warrior are going to be an abysmal tank and have their shit slapped until they learn boss mechanics.

And what do you mean by 70% of the community using classes that people seem to be good with? As in, 70% of the community uses the "best" classes, or 70% of the community plays what they're best at, or 70% of the community seemingly limits themselves so they can be a class in high-demand?

>>10459905
All three of those things, I'm just sick of people blaming the class when it's obviously the player's fault that their class isn't being played to the maximum potential and constantly bitch how much the class sucks and how underpowered they are.

>>10459844
>>10459905
Unless they've really rebalanced classes since I last played, berserkers are the worst dps class in TERA, or at least in the bottom 2. Top all around is still sorc and slayer is a very close second. Warriors can do great dps at higher levels but they are very gear dependent. Archers are at the bottom with berserkers. Really, warriors, archers, and berserkers are pretty close in dps. It's just that slayer and sorc are too good. Sorc with their aoe damage and slayers are just broken.

Priests are better at healing but lancers are so easy to tank with you don't even need all of a priests heals. A party would much rather have a mystic's utility, and that plus critical is really nice. I remember at level 60 some priests were having trouble getting groups because they wanted a mystic instead.

Been waiting since the problem with login was fixed
Is this normal?

please say it is ;_;

>>10460139
I don't remember there being a patch after the login issue.

>>10460139
Disable P2P on tools.

>>10460139
There was a 1gb patch but that was for tera going f2p. Those speeds aren't normal. You can try exiting the launcher and then starting the download again. My download speed doubled when I did that.

>>10460105

It is now berserker > sorcerer > slayer > warrior > archer. Slayers aren't top tier like they used to be, berserkers mop the floor with them in damage.

Priests are better for learning content and mystics are better for farming content. Priests and lancers give way more room for error when learning difficult dungeons because the lancer doesn't need to watch their resolve all the time and can sustain more damage, and priests have way more "oh shit" heals than mystic.

>>10460363
Really? What did they change that made berserkers top now? I thought they would have helped archers too if they changed stuff.

Are they still laughable in pvp?

>>10460419

Off the top of my head, thunder strike hits one time for extra big crits instead of a small hit and then a slightly larger hit, overcharging drastically increases damage output, you can chain flatten out of staggering strike, you can cancel cyclone with block, and you can now chain vampiric blow out of overcharged attacks that covers most of the cost of overcharging and hits fairly high. Here's the patch notes if you want to see: http://tera.enmasse.com/news/patchotes/patch-18100507#berserker-chaes

Every class just got some PvP rebalancing with the addition of 3v3s, and archer got some buffs that really help in PvE, namely, Rain of Arrows now casts faster (I don't have the increased cast speed glyph but it casts in maybe 1 second now), final salvo, rapid fire and arrow now restore much more mana, and the stances no longer drain mp. It really helps, but I still feel like I do a pittance of damage compared to my zerker and sorc, but I feel like I can do better damage than my warrior and my slayer. I'll have to do some more testing on it. Archers shine more in PvP than they do in PvE, but they're still fine as PvE DPS.

And berserkers are laughable in 1v1 PvP but are very good in group. They're one-shot wonders if somebody is brain damaged enough to get hit by one.

TERA is so boring. Where are my /jp/ friends?

>>10460505
Why not just make friends with regular users?
Regular users are actually nicer and more friendly in my experience and opinion. If you can tolerate the emoticons and meme spouting.

can we have a new thread?
this one is already on auto-sage

>>10460647
I don't want too I feel scared knowing some new people will be in this thread!
