first storyline
Damn, that's a pretty awesome first 4 levels for an MMO. Really liking the way they're doing the story. Some of the game to cutscene or cutscene to game transitions were a little too sudden, but overall it's still pretty awesome. Just makes me even more salty that this game is probably not going to be out in english anytime soon.
Damn this looks fucking badass. I hope NCSoft actually publish it themselves. Not played any of their games but I've never heard anything bad about them. As long as someone like Nexon doesn't pick it up I'm most definitely gonna give this a try when it hits English.
Wow, story looks like it plays a big part in the game I wonder how long that goes on for maybe the first 10 levels?
I'm not optimistic they can keep up that level of storytelling (full voice acting, etc) for much beyond Noob Island.
The thing that got me excited is the amount of movement this game lets you use.
I loved aion's ability to glide and the overall fast pace you can run with the proper gear which made world PVP(the thing I love) so much fun because outrunning someone and doubling back to kill their lagging healer was so fun and part of the strategy.
Being able to not only use terrain for line of sight but also as part of the fighting space by running on walls/water and just being able to run around fast adds a whole new dynamic to the game and makes it a lot more fun. Too man games have fights between people be stationary or with little movement but this idea is what is making me want to play this game and hope its not a Korean only game.
Game does look demanding with its graphics though.
Huh well... there you go then. It's not so much the customer service I'm worried about though, but more localizations, the server and how reliable it is. I mentioned Nexon because they are absolutely retarded when it comes to bringing stuff to EU/UK. Vindictus was supposed to come out last year here and the teaser site hasn't even been updated once since that announcement, they've literally just said absolutely nothing. And when they do finally release a game, their servers tend to be crappy from my very miniscule experience with them. Exceptionally slow updates and poor servers resulting in way higher ping than I should have. I know people who have played Guild Wars and Lineage (pretty sure NCSoft published both of those anyway...) for years and they were happy with both games. I can't say I've delved too deeply in to looking for complaints though, but I guess that was apparent enough from my statement.

Over at Gamescom NCsoft has just announced that Closed beta 2 phase for the highly-anticipated Blade & Soul will begin from 29th August till 10th September, with registration starting on 19th August. The players entering CBT2 will be announced on 26th August.
The biggest content addition will no doubt be the inclusion of the new Assassin class (2nd artwork above), teased months ago in the G*Star 2010 trailer (at 1:58).
NCSoft Korea released a series of videos showing off the new Assassin class.
