I found this casually browsing about BDO shit. It's a pretty solid guide especially for people like me who know jackshit about the meta in BDO.

I'll be on tonight after work (5-ish oclock central time) Is Orwen a server? I thought there was just going to be one big mega server D: how many of them are there?

Need to take a makeup class to make female characters in games these days. sheesh. -_-;

So from what I gather, this is like FFXI (sandbox) with world pvp+guild vs guild pvp basically. Mob grinding to level too, like FFXI. Consider me intrigued.

Pretty much. Quests aren't there for exp. Sieges will go into effect 1 month after launch.

I just watched a Black Desert twitch stream when suddenly a Community Manager from NA Black Desert team messaged the streamer and they had a REALLY good impromptu 45 min skype interview on stream. That was something else.

Orwell and eh Serendia #2, this was after the mixup where a majority of NA people ended up on EU servers somehow. I'm Feliciene Lumine on that server if you want to hit me up.

I spent the last 2 weeks perfecting my waifu.

This is what hyped me originally. It definitely feels FFXI-esque.

Impressions:

+ Combat is loads of fun and there is a learning curve.
+ Runs amazingly well on my rig.
+ AFK'd for like 5 minutes to make lunch and it automatically went into a screensaver mode, I thought it was awesome.

+- The game kinda drops you in and doesn't hold your hand. You'll need to research how all the different nodes/crafting/gathering/horse taming shit works.
+- I'm used to BnS or Tera's holding down ctrl to click the UI, well in BDO it's a toggle so sometimes I have to fuck around with it until I get control of my character again.
+- In the heat of a tough fight, I end up getting a little derpy with which combo did what and how much damage they do.

- Needs XP and Quest Completion sharing.
- Lots of competition for quest mobs.
- Nodes needed a better explanation, apparently they are really useful if you can wrap your head around them.
- Needs some sort of Audio Culling for hitting multiple mobs at one time, everything sounds like a tin can after a while.
- Feels weird that there's no floating combat text for damage.

Edit: They're offering up some exclusive titles if you achieve certain things in the beta: http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/i...-cbt-2-events/
