Not my bag.
Each class in this game comes with 2 Genders.
Warriors - Male and Valkyrie - Female is the same Sword+Shield class. Ninja - male and Kunuichi - female is also the same class. Blade and Plum, Gandalf and Witch.
Only Sorcerer, Mystic, Archer and Giant doesn't have an opposit version yet.
There are 3 playable Races in the game. Humans ( Western and Eastern type), Elf and Giants.
Male version of Archer will be comming next i think.
I don't think Na/EU will have P2P servers, because the publisher is a Korean company that had big success with F2P servers in Korea. Adding or changing to P2P - will be a big lose of money.
It's only Russian that will have P2P servers.
The combat system and the social aspects of the game look amazing.
Super challanging content isn't a necessary thing for me. In many MMOs, it's served as a roadblock for me as I usually don't like joining guilds to go through a carrying process which is often pretty necessary. Also people are able to get outstanding gear from that gated content and whip my ass in pvp with it, which sucks.
All around it promises to have a really even playing field for PVP, which would also be amazing.
I'm not worried about running out of content in a pvp-enabled game set in a beautiful world with tons of social possibilities.
1 thing I hope is true is people are saying there could be a sub-based server for NA. That would finalize my hype for the game because as long as there's f2p there's potential for really crappy things.
In my version the F2P was basically as it is now, with a lot of boxes and potential P2W for cash cows.
B2P was for those who tried the F2P version and enjoyed it / saw potential and ponied up a box purchase to be able to get into servers that had absolutely no P2W whatsoever in it. But still a aesthetic cash shop and the like. It also would serve as a moderate barrier from trolls.
P2P as they pretty much have it set up here, with all things from the B2P cash shop available in game. In addition to another barrier to keep out "undesireables" as some may call them. Not really my thing, as I play to make new friends and how much money they want to spend isn't or shouldn't be a requirement of that for me. But the ability to have no cash shop in game is a plus for many.
The problem that has to be tackled is the inability to play with friends, who may not want to pay monthly.
My solution was the ability of P2P players to play on any realm they wanted. They just have to understand -- or get a warning -- that logging onto a server, they'll encounter players that have things from cash shops. Then just go back to their exclusive server when their friends log out. Likewise, B2P players would be able to bring their characters F2P servers for the same reasons.
