Old engine is not a major issue but being Free to play and pay to win is an issue and despite being pay to win, not having active combat is a huge downside cuz people are not used to hotbar spam anymore and we want skill over spam... I am honestly also thinking about going back to BDO sooner or later, I want to see what Blue Protocol will be like (another severly censored amazon games studios release) but I did play the Japanese version of Blue Protocol and despite it being JP locked, it had more active people that TL has right now... Strange right how an anime MMORPG with semi-active combat system, cute characters and interesting story has more players than TL... Also it was better optimized and actually held 60 FPS in intense combat and densely populated areas....
I also stopped reading right there.
I _sort of_ agree, but we have BDO for that. The fact that even after the devs hacked on the Easy Face Maker, which is a very cool idea, it is still not functioning for me. I've seen it work for streamers, and it looks fun, but the fact that they cannot seem to sort out file access permissions, or whatever else is the issue, for my vanilla M$ PC with modern hardware and Win11, is pretty annoying.
I get 60fps solid in towns and 6-player dungeons (i5-13600k).
Also in your settings, there's a setting that shows your own skill animations only. Turn this on. It will help with performance on low-end or dated CPUs.
The game has been in development since around 2011, I think there was a first beta around 2014 and a redesign in 2017. The choice back then wasn't an “outdated” engine, but the most modern one at the time. In an ongoing project, no engine change is carried out unless there are compelling technical or financial reasons.
Frame Generation is not a UE5.4 feature but a feature of NVIDIA and to a limited extent of AMD.
So? I play in 4K, HDR, everything on epic and never had less than 180fps, especially not in the dungeons. In the beta there was a large scale castle siege with thousands of people, even then I had a stable 160. In the cities or in the wilderness, 240 is no problem. Besides, I have settled now with 120 fps as a limit in T&L, otherwise my GPU would burn up power unnecessarily. It's not a shooter after all.
Except that you have no idea how technology works and how long a game takes to make... But that is understandable cuz you either know how to make games, hence you know that its pretty easy, or you dont know how to make games hence that is why you say "you dont know how long such project can take"... I do know how long, for an MMORPG of this small scale, its about year and a half with limited dev team to 20 people. Frame Generation is indeed UE 5.4 feature by default, the fact that they implemented it into UE 4 (other devs implement it into other games too) but these devs implemented it poorly, then no wonder its the way it is.
The fact that the game was in development in 2011 doesnt change the fact that it was released in 2024, its still out of date, poorly optimized and laggy AF and I dont care what you say, the game might be running at 180 FPS on all low for you at 720p resolution cuz aint no way a game that is as unoptimized as this one can actually run good... I have 4060Ti and 13 gen i5 and I can run Cyberpunk fully maxxed out, DLSS on quality, Frame gen turned on, RTX set on psycho with Path Tracing at 1080p and the game holds stable 60 FPS with minor jumps above 70 but I still cap it at 60 to ensure more stable FPS... So that being said, unless you are running dual RTX 4090 and 14th gen i9, all watercooled and overclocked to oblivion, you aint getting nowhere near those FPS.
Also, what you need to realize is that more FPS doesnt mean higher GPU usage xD more FPS means higher CPU usage... But sure, you seem to know nothing about technology, you think that FPS are tied to GPU which is false (to some extent they are, but GPU will render desired frames regardless, its up to the CPU to take the frames, so if your CPU is bad and GPU is overpowered, the GPU will barely work. As in my case, I get balanced output at about 80% usage on both CPU and GPU in 98% of games that I play with few exceptions like Cyberpunk that has them run at 100% or Overwatch that has GPU run at 30%). So what you need to realize, tech influencers talk crap about computers for the most part and just try to influence you into thinking what is right (hence why they are called influencers) but you also need to realize that they are paid, like LTT for example is paid by AMD currently and a few other sponsors, but mostly AMD so that is why you often hear then saying how good AMD is and whatnot (which we all know it aint)...
So please, dont lie about your frames cuz nobody cares. Literally everyone I talked to with normal gaming rig had issues with this game and I did talk to people that had 13th gen i9 and RTX 4080 and such, same issue... Massive frame drops all across the board and nothing was stable...
And back to the game, if you start making a game, there should be a deadline cuz your game can become irrelevant before it gets released and here we have a prime example of such a thing. 2011 game released in 2024 running on 2014 game engine where barely 2024 tech can keep the game at stable FPS (10 ish frame drops are fine, if your game drops 10+ frames or even 50+ framed and in most cases for this game even 100 frames at certain situations, it is poorly optimized). Sooo that being said, the game should have been released in between 2012 to 2014, they came to the market a decade too late where people are not looking for a nicer looking WoW clone (in gameplay stile with that hotbar spam) but instead we are looking for something new... Imagine if WoW was released and it followed the same path as RuneScape.... Can you imagine how angry people would become if it came out like that? Nah, you cant cuz you are the type of person that doesnt care how game came out and you just have to defend it...
So Imma wrap this up here... The graphics look "fine" and the game is "fine" but the gameplay mechanics are 2 decades out of date, massive FPS drops are also bad, censorship is even worse and the fact that its called an MMORPG but you cant fully modify your characters body (ass/booba sliders on female body are basically the same thing as beards/muscles on male body, imagine if that was also removed due to censorship) and then you turn around and you can barely do anything cuz queue for the dungeon you want to run is over an hour long and still no tank or support.... Guilds are overly racist for the most part (atleast on US servers), game is dead on asian servers and EU servers are something in between dead and barely running... I really wanted to like this game, I really did, but sadly I cant and I wont... Time to throw this behind me and keep waiting for something really new.
GW2 is great but it's like 10 years old
