    I like to hear of the monetization considerations - feels more tuned for a western audience.

    I am playing the Japanese version. It has good bones, but it needs allot of work in order for it to be popular in the west.

    Bandai knows how to make good single player games, but it seems their online games are not very good.

    I hope Amazon can help them out, and give Bandai some ideas in order to improve the game.

    I was surpised (upset) how small the areas in BP are. Well ...and you can´'t really make an individual character. You just click together a couple of templates. The game looks nice, for the first hours but it is imho far from fulfilling the hype-expectations many players have. Do youself a favor, and put your expectations on this away or at least lower them. Besides the artstyle it is a random asia mmo.

    All the children in combat makes me wonder if I should call CPS? Combined with the comments above I just can't see me getting into this game. I need some level of immersion to enjoy any game, and as a guy who practices and teaches martial arts to both kids an adults to either play as a child or be surrounded by children in a combat situations is just a step too far for my brain. Oh and spare me the line about "oh they're actually really old, they just look young". I'm not buying that line of bullshit either.

    Anyway, if this game is your thing, by all means enjoy. I'll be focusing on other things.

    Disappointments left and right. If it is not Throne and Liberty not being what it was supposed to be, then it is Blue Protocol not delivering what was supposed to deliver.

    It has been far too long since we last saw a new, great, MMORPG.

    I wonder if it is time to move on...

    The double speak for me is that they want to advertise is for a younger audience, but don't want that younger audience also represented as a playable character in game. If it's an outfit concern, then ban those outfits on those smaller body frames. I'm 100% okay with that. You can get that T rating without removing an entire body model. Maybe ask ShiftUp how they did it with Nikke.

    When I was younger I often made a very short character in PSO because I was also very short at that age and wanted to represent something close to myself. I didn't want to play as someone that tall. Their desire to just remove the model altogether seems odd, but then they will still have gacha mechanics and bikini outfits in the game? Clearly these decisions aren't because they are looking out for the kids or both of those would be removed as well.

    I have no interest these days in having a short character at all. I made the tallest one I could in the character creator as my tastes have dramatically changed since then. A younger me would have frowned at this as well because it doesn't make a lot of sense given what else I'm hearing about the localization.

    People get upset with Amazon Games because they keep making decisions that no fans of the game I've seen have asked them to do.
