Well, I was trying to be a bit positive and actually got past the queue only to find out that my level 19 occulist was gone...? Tried restarting everything and can't even get to the server page now.
Probably went with one server to stress test and help fine tune the queing mechanics.
Stress test would have been more realistic had they opened the game up to everyone for free. The paywall indicates 2 things.
1. This is obviously not a stress test.
2. This is obviously a cash grab paywall since the My.com "localized" version is still in chincese/russian. They just took the russian translated .pg files for the gui and copy pasted them into google translate and poof... WEVE SUCCESSFULLY BROUGHT RO TO THE WEST. ENJOY SUCKERS!!

I don't think it's a cash grab, I do think this is the laziest localization CBT I've ever experienced though. Skyforge for all it's faults did better than this ... there are issues that go past localization currently and they don't expect to fix them until tomorrow. Like it or not you get one first impression ... they are squandering theirs.

It more than likely will have 3 CBT phases before OBT, but honestly, this feels more like an alpha than a beta. So many things were overlooked and yes the translations should've been done properly by the first cbt phase so that everything could be tested properly rather than this gamble of what you can and cannot do. Missing npcs/bugs and such are kind of expected to at this point though since those take less time to deal with.
I played long enough to make an avatar and see that the localization was horrible, I had no idea what the icons did and couldn't read the non-English. I am no giving up but I plan to wait until they at least translate the game before diving in. Can live without the 2k+ queues.

First impression for me - probably the worst localized beta I've ever seen period. There are actual un-official player made translation "patches" that are better - which means they failed in a spectacular way.
But yeah - horrible localization together with completely mediocre gameplay for me = I have no desire in ever playing this, that's my honest first impression.
Seems to me like this publisher doesn't care about me as customer, so I don't have any desire to support their product either.
Maybe it's just me - but have a product that is worthy of me spending money on it - heck it would have been better to just leave everything in a SINGLE language - that way google translate would at least work - but presenting 3 languages on the same screen in a hodge-podge way - seriously what the F?
If I ever saw an example of a game that someone intentionally wanted to make look as BAD as possible - this would be the way to localize it.
No thanks.
Focusing on just the game, I think it overall has a good feel. The combat could use some tightening for sure, but as opposed to B&S that relies on solely its combat and of course better graphics, Revelations has more to offer. Blade does still suffer from optimization issues when there's like over 15-20 people in a zone and doesn't even really allow you the ability to customize your character outside costumes, which revelations allows you to do both (similar to AA). Assuming the publisher wasn't as lazy as my.com has been, I think its a solid threat against B&S which might not seem like much now since the game has a mediocre following at the moment.
Looks like a typical Asian game,all the stereotypes are there and yep once again,yellow question marks over npc heads...sigh.
I watched two videos and that is all i need to see that i won't even bother to try the game,it looks typical,boring and linear.Worse however is it does a few things i cannot stand,so no way would i enjoy it.Ridiculous combat "at times",ridiculous looking female classes/characters "typical of Asian games",movement is also ridiculous and typically done in many Asian games. I am looking for realistic/plausible type game play with no hand holding and no linear game play and this is not it.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Too bad I cant understand ch/ru, dunno how to que or search for dungeons :P Its alot harder, I think ch rev with english patch is better translated -_-
