Vindi needs to shutdown, they're molesting it while it's beaten on the ground, it's a corpse by now, washed up. I left the game with good memories 1,5 years ago, instead of playing through this abomination of game they made it to be.
You're such a d1ckh3ad... Not only you don't have any valid argument to show but you also go around in every thread spreading your useless negativity. If you have nothing useful and constructive to say just avoid the forum pls where ppl are discussing a serious matter with all the best intentions. People like you are only a waste of time.
I'll just reply to one of your nosense: Yes the community (talking in general tho) has enough power to change things.
Companies goes where are money. You don't need a high school grade to understand that.
A community spending / not spending can have 2 different reactions/endings on the game itself.
The game meant to be for koreans means absolutely nothing. If tomorrow for absurd the earnings in NA/EU become double of what they have in KR, you would see korea become their 2nd choice.
Back to the topic.
I appreciate the topic and is nice to see so many ppl trying to propose any kind of way to save our game.
About the JP panic I'd like highlight that some info are wrong or just rumors.
First of all there're ppl who actually played there for a while and they stated their playerbase is around the same as EU and NOT the triple.
Also the reason of the shut down isn't still clear. Everybody speculated about the financial problems but that's not written anywhere. For now is just speculation.
There're also other reasons behind which doesn't have to be necessarely a money issue, like investing in new projects or the mass flooding of games in japan or like someonelse
mentioned stuff about some kind of japan strict rules about games which i didn't even understand well.
I don't want to state how things really are but i suggest to wait for some enlighments before speculating and spreading misinformation and useless panic of the 'why has been closed & we're next'.
That said, If you want to concern about something that is for sure, you should mention that korea established that Season 3 will be last one.
So however the game goes after S3 we won't see any new content and what will happen after that only they knows..
I agree with the OP about the advertising. That might actually help cause the game never been really well advertised in both NA and EU.
I also agree with the OP comparition about the concept of 10ppl spending 10$ each instead of 1 person spending 100.
I alwasy think about that and how nx items prices should be lowered to a decent term in order to turn more free players into paying customers..
the microtransactions imo gives way more earns than big milking stuff for just a few ppl.
<<Ehi this thing i need cost just 1 2 dollars/euro let me buy it.>> and without noticing after a while u're reiterating that spending way more than a casher because psycologically u're spending nothing.
Stuff that cost 20 30 40 or 50 Dollars all at once are quite a repellant to many players that could be potential customers.
And about the game itself, yes this game have a lot of potential.
Despite being old compared to other titles it has its own fashion and on some points is still unbeaten. I saw and talked personally with many ppl which can go anywhere playing lot of different titles BUT they always come back to vindictus.
The addiction this game have on ppl can't be compared to any other game i know.
If one day they terminate for good this game they either don't really understand how much this game can give, like some ppl don't understand art, or they might think to rebuild it from scratch keeping the same good recipe.
That would be outstanding.
I wish the best outcomings to you and all the other ppl who are spending their time and efforts trying to find a solution that will keep our beloved game alive and kicking.
As a player whose spent 7-8 years playing Vindictus I can say that I still care about this game.
You probably saw a thread posted few days ago that we wanted to make Vindictus great again.
It’s obvious that servers closing would be really waste of game potential also our progress and time.
I don’t regret a single moment, any single minute I spent in this game as solo player or later with my Guild.
I always recommended Vindictus highly on all community forums, blogs and even in free dialogue with friends.
I could easily find tens or hundreds of arguments why this game is so cool.
To be honest I would like to recommend it still but only Vindictus before RISE patch.
Or rather Vindictus before few handicapped updates that makes this game too easy.
As I stated in my previous post Vindictus is not the same game anymore.
You can’t control your character skills because ADD Damage makes everything now.
You can’t Raiding with your Guild because Vindictus is only co-op for 4 players right now.
- Two most “pain in the ass” issues that most of my allies and players that I used to know just left the game.
You can disagree but all the time I spent on asking other players about today Vindictus in last year was mostly about those issues.
(and upgrade fails, but its aint matter when RNGesus rules in this world).
There is no reason to be surprised that players going to leave from Vindictus.
I’m still playing in a force of habit and sentiment as well, its not as pleasurable game as It was.
However I will do everything in my power to help Vindictus and it’s players as well.
This game sucked my soul and I can’t get it back so what can I do.
I just dont get why quality of service have declined so much on this game, wish they could just add English patch to the Korean server and merge em, but p2p would make that awful so we doomed either way
I swear, you do these posts just to see if there are active mods on this forum XDD
