From what I played of the OBT in Korea, it kinda seems like a typical F2P cute anime graphics game. The game was pretty much deserted. It was fun to waste time in, but doesn't seem like something that would keep player interest long.

[Shinaji]

That's good enough for me, since I am playing Guild Wars 2 I plan to just hope into it every now and then to have a lil fun then hop right back out.

Wish it was better though I really do enjoy the art style.

[Shinaji]

Yes, oh yes I will be playing.

[Naom]

the game is so late, its almost funny

[Tashigi]

It's even later now.
OBT postponed until Jan 3rd, 2013. Lol, lots of rage on that Facebook page.

[JemL]

mmm that homepage is down 24/7

[Shinaji]

Yeah their servers got RAMMED! on OBT day. I think they underestimated how many people would try the game simply because it's "Ragnarok", weather they thought it would be good or not tons of people would try it just because of the love they have for RO 1.
So their servers got raped. Lol. So they had to shove it back a week to stress test. :P
I'm pretty sure not as many people will keep playing once it gets going but there will be a high initial influx simply for the love of the "franchise"

that girl in the middle looks gorgeous from the image now that i see it .. but wonder without makeup ;)

Finally was able to download this game, so slowly but dled, logged for the recent stress test, i liked the art, is cartoonish but is good, cant say about anything else, one hour isnt enough, i just did the normal stuff such get familiar with the interface and so on.

[Shinaji]

I keep trying to dodge and stuff. Too much GW2. Been in a few stress tests. Lags. The camera feels too loose though.

This is driving me bonkers.
It's aligned too slow with the vertical and way, way too fast with horizontal panning of the mouse; resulting in a really weird/inorganic feel.
The combat is choppy; it's a WOW formula, but badly copied as far as combat goes. If it was as smooth as WOW's it would actually be good.

Other than that, the game retains a lot of the original's "cuteness" and "fun" but it needs some serious polish in the above issues.
I'll probably only play this once a week if that; but we'll see.

Oh and Swordie dance > Thief dance.

However, it's with our deepest apologies that we announce we will not be able to provide the RO2 game service to players outside of our optimised countries - Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam - due to our licence agreement with the game's developer, Gravity Co., Ltd.

This is what they announced on their homepage

[Shinaji]

That's a shame.
Though if that means there will be a publisher with better English translations and who will fix some of the little issues like the camera, etc. Then it won't be so bad.
Still such a dick move to drop that bomb now.

[Tashigi]

Dick move is the right word.
What was the point of stress testing GLOBALLY when you'll only provide the service LOCALLY?
Kinda silly if you ask me.

[Aery]

Yeah this move wasn't very clever. They have a real shitstorm on their fb-page and in the forum.
But they also announced a RO2 NA-Server.

[Tashigi]

Who is 'they' though?
Gravity themselves?

[JemL]

so then i registered and downloaded the game for nothing? sucks

[Button]

People are blowing up on the facebook page and official forums. This is a really disappointing move by AS.

[Kryscent]

Lol proud to born in Malaysia.
