Throne & Liberty/Project TL (PC/PS5/XSX) - Lineage 3

[Bombur]

I thought I would make a new thread, as the old thread about Lineage Eternal was years ago.

Originally it was going to be Lineage Eternal, but that was a complete disaster. Over time, things changed and the game changed with it. Now it's a full scale 3d mmorpg, and a completely new story. Project TL now stand for Throne and Liberty.

One of the features in this game will be that players can turn into animals in order to move and traverse the land. This makes it a way to use the space and not have something that’s just fast travel but instead blended into the world. There are also different areas that will be better explored by certain animal types. And you can also pick up other players.

There will be a weather system and a day/night system, and circumstances will impact how you play, including the weather. If it’s sunny then lightning will attack a single target, but if you use a lightning based attack in the rain, it will be an AoE. If you are shooting a bow, the wind will affect the range and the direction of your shot. They also give an example of if you are in a siege and you might infiltrate a castle via the sewers, in a rain storm those might be flooded so you’ll have to think of something else. They also hint that under certain conditions the player can change the environment strategically.

Ncsoft will have a big announcement on T&L on Dec. 27th 10 am Korean time. It is supposed to be in both Engish and Korean.


Also they showed off a new teaser.

So much for the big announcement. This video felt like going to a restaurant and the manager highlights everything except the food.

This is probably a marketing gimmick, but T&L is going to have DLSS 3 integrated into the game. According to Nvida, you will see a dramatic frame rate increase. Which will be a huge advantage during massive encounters. But the kicker is that DLSS 3 will only be available for RTX 40 series cards.

DLSS3 isnt specific to this game, it's a feature of the Ada gen cards and has been implemented into a few games already. It makes AI generated frames and can double frame rate.

Also a new Trailer

Game launches Dec. 7th in S. Korea.

Sad to see S Korea is still so hard core about having a Korean telephone # to try this out. It's been a long time since I've wanted to get into a deep character creator like this. Alas, I am not going into that obstacle course again. Here's hoping we get some news soon on release for USA or at least the next test phase.

Yes the charater creator is very robust. It even has built in AI tools. You can upload a picture of yourself or someone, and it will create a charater of the picture. You could actually play yourself in game...lol

The game launched 3 days ago. I've been playing it. If anyone has any questions about the game, I can answer them here.


It is very much an old school AAA mmo. You are pretty much forced to group up, and grind mobs. Soloing is hard in this game. But it is a massive open world, with little to no instancing. Has awsome graphics, with little to no lag.

As for the PVP, the zones switch between PVE and PVP, every couple of hours. Peronally I think it's stupid, should just make PVE and PVP servers.

As for the negative, this game is P2W as shit. Mind you this is the Korean version, so that is to be expected. If it launches with this cash shop in the west, it will be DOA.

So how many to a party for grinding? Also I know the two weapon system allows you to change classes quickly but are you bound to those 2 classes on 1 character? Or can the same character mix and match everything?

It is 6 per party.

sword/shield for tank
wand for healer
crossbow for cc
bow/greatsword/dagger/staff for dd

You can only equip 2 weapons at a time. One main, and one secondary. You can macro and switch the 2 weapons on the fly. But you can mix and match what 2 weapons you want, on the same charater.

You lvl up your charater, which is really fast. You can get to lvl 50 in a couple of weeks. But you also need to lvl up your weapon, and that is the massive grind. So you could lvl up all weapons in the game.

The game is pretty much Lineage 3, mixed in with GW2 events, that happens all over the world.

Combat is 2009 style tab- target. I know lots don't like it.

[Bombur]

Here is a video that shows off the weapons and combat.

At the beginning of the video, it shows what you can do, by macro your 2 weapons.

At the start of the 30 sec mark it shows..

Dagger
Crossbow
Great Sword
Sword/Shield
LongBow
Staff
Wand
