  • Vindictus 2018 Impressions Review

    @ByteStix

    So you never meant us to take you seriously and this was never a real review?

    You even linked this video at the end of your review on your website: https://www.mmobyte.tv/vindictus-game-review/#comments

    How do rate this game 1.5 stars for PvP/PvE and Story Content when you can't even get past level 20?

    So you're not even going to try to progress throughout the game? You haven't even unlocked story quests for Dark Knight or Paladin.

    You're either Fking retarded or you're just trolling us. Is this fun for you? Do you like it when people rip on you for being a dumb liar?

    We know both you and your wife played this game before.

    At least get your facts together before you try to defend yourself. There's obviously no effort put in when you write posts/reviews, play video games, and publish videos.

    Grow up, Get your life together, and come back when you've learned how to play the game.

    Glad to have sparked such a passionate discussion!

    Remember - this was my first impressions, not an actual "review" of the game. So anyone taking it as such missed the entire point of the video. It was merely to give our viewers a look at how the game plays in 2018 for someone tackling it for the first time. You're more than welcome to flame away and criticize the video - it's your prerogative. At the end of the day, my viewers enjoyed watching me mess around for a few hours as a newbie, and that's really what counts.

    Regardless, thank you all for chiming in to the discussion! Glad to see the community isn't dead yet!

    Don't FKing Lie to us; this is not your first impressions of the game. You were here last year asking about the player population:

    http://forums.vindictus.nexon.net/discussion/2864/new-players-how-is-the-population


    Your Channel has multiple Vindictus Videos where you and your wife just mess around:

    https://youtube.com/channel/UC6y5h-dW-A6RBRHXDPlj9Rg/search?query=vindictus

    None of your videos even show content past Ainle. Both of you started this around December 2016; it's been two and a half years and this is all the content you've managed to produce for Vindictus?

    What you really need to do is focus on quality vs quantity. You're both trying to play as many games as possible in the eyes of a brand new player. This does not help anybody because all gamers do this on their own when they try out a game.

    Viewers learn nothing from these types of videos:

    If you really care about producing better quality videos, stop rushing and take your time to play MMO's. Focus on one game at a time and play it for two months straight before switching to a different one.

    Explore other things in Vindictus like the mini-games - Fishing/Resenlian's Labyrinth/Alban Festival. Show your viewers end game content, large scale raids with 15+ players, Guild Features, PvP, Holiday Events (Halloween, 4th of July, Christmas), individual character reviews/guides, and overall game progression.

    Also stop trying to be funny; it's obvious that you're both trying way too hard. You're lucky Vindictus Players haven't thumbs downed all your videos yet.

    Until you and your wife reach at least level 70 and unlock Season 3 Story Mode, nobody is ever going take your impressions, opinions, or reviews seriously.

    Edit:

    Don't believe anything from this guy. All he does is try to lie his way out of everything. This video has the same content as his written review on his website:

    https://www.mmobyte.tv/vindictus-game-review/#comments

    Don't fall for his obvious click bait attempt and just let this thread die. What we really need to do is thumbs down and flag the video on youtube.

    The reason why he never posted any of this on forums is because he literally calls Nexon a Cash Cow and was afraid it would be locked.

    Here is proof:

    Easy, because from what I experienced, that's what I felt it deserved. Yes, neither Wiggy and I, nor my wife and I have ever made it beyond level 40. MMO reviews are very different to movie reviews, or reviews of video games that can be finished in 20-30 hours. MMOs often take hundreds to fully experience everything, and by that logic, wouldn't really ever be possible to fully rate, considering so many have populations so minuscule that experiencing the content is virtually impossible. While the written review on the website features an ending review of the game based off of 40 levels of experience, the video does not, and is there for my viewers to enjoy.

    @ ByteStix

    I don't see anywhere in your written review saying that this was based of your 40 levels of experience.

    Do you still even have access to your level 40 character or did it get banned?

    Is that why you criticized Nexon? - Because you got mad that your character was banned and you thought you could come back here and diss the game?

    Stop trying to lie to us, you're obviously not good at it. Both your written review and video review have the exact same information.

    Why am I editing on my first post? - Because I don't want to bump your thread anymore; you can do that yourself.

  • If you could change one thing about Vindictus...

    What would it be and why?

    - I would personally change ownership rights and sell this game to someone who cares:

    If the publishers and developers don't advertise their product, then it's up to the community to do so.

    Do you talk about Vindictus to your friends or recommend it to others? I personally do. Most people I talk to have never heard of Vindictus, but they always find what I show them interesting and some have even joined the game. I know everyone I show won't be interested enough to try it, but I'm still doing my part to keep this community going. If I can do it, so can you. The next time you're talking about games with a friend, co-worker, or whoever... ask them if they've heard of Vindictus and show them the game. Not only does this help the playerbase, but they'll be joining the game knowing that there will be people they already know. It also gives us veterans the opportunity to mentor newer players so we can create an open and friendly feel for our community. Both of these aspects will boost Vin's retention of newer players.

    I'm not saying that everyone has to spend hundreds of dollars to keep the game going, but if the community gets small enough, that may become the case. The bigger the community, the less each individual has to spend. One-hundred people spending $10 is better than ten people spending $100. They both equal out to $1000, but in one scenario, a person quitting means a 1% revenue loss while the other equals a 10% loss. This shows how important a community's size means. The only way we can bring the community size up is if we all work together and save the game we enjoy.

    @Cloakshire

    Why should we do their work for them? Nobody wants this game to shut down, but you're working too hard, you're doing more than you should have to, and you're one of the players going above and beyond trying to save Vindictus.

    That's not right, Dev's and Pub's needs to at least meet us halfway and do their part as well. They need to start doing more promotional events and reward players when Vindictus reaches a certain number followers on Twitter, subscribers on Youtube, or likes on Facebook by a certain time-frame.

    Each time there's new content, they should encourage and reward players for sharing Facebook Posts. The Vindictus Facebook has over 271K Likes and 256K Followers, but most if not all of the recent posts about new content do not even have over 100 shares or likes. If the community was active enough, the Aidan and Arcana Posts should have at least 1000 shares and likes on Facebook and Youtube.

    All Nexon had to do was use their resources in social media and engage their community. It could have been as simple as an announcement saying that if these posts and videos received 1000 likes and shares on Youtube and Facebook, players would receive double gold, loot, and exp rates for a month. They didn't have to pay for Facebook or Youtube Advertisements (even though these would help bring in some more numbers), and the players did all the promotional work by sharing these news and advertising the game to their friends and family.

    If there's no reward or compensation, then there's no incentive for the community to even try. Nexon could easily receive over 100K Followers on Twitter, 100K Subscribers on Youtube, and 500K Likes and Followers on Facebook, if they offered rewards like 50% off Supply Depot Sales, Free Level 80 Characters, Free Name Changers, or Free Skins after these goals are completed within the time limit.

    Vindictus has so much potential but only if it is in the right hands. If they want this game to succeed, then they will need to utilize their resources, pay more attention to the player community, listen to feedback and suggestions, and make new changes.

    However, now is not the time to recruit new players. This game needs a lot of work and improvements before it can become stable enough to retain a larger community; and I'm not just talking about our crappy servers.

    A game solely focused on PvE has its limits. New PvE Content is only fun until players master boss patterns and unlock everything. Some players don't really care for the story or history of this game. How long will you be able to tell the story and lore of Vindictus before it ends? Developers and Publishers are placing too much emphasis and attention on their story telling abilities, thinking that players will stay and continue to play as long as they keep releasing new maps, monsters, bosses, and items.

    They need to start focus on what makes all MMO's great: PvP

    Vindictus has such great combat physics and combos but it is losing out on a lot of PvP Potential since Dev's and Pub's have nearly given up on it.

    We have no ranking system, no leaderboards, and we've never had any Official PvP Events or Tournaments. Players have no incentive to even try PvP because they do not get anything out of it.

    Who are the top ten guilds? Who are the Top Players in each of the 12 Playable Characters?

    Could players get more views and followers on Twitch or Youtube, and become famous for being Pros at Vindictus?

    Gamers are naturally competitive, and if there's no ranking system or leaderboards to show who are the best Vindictus Players, then why even try?

    Vindictus will need a new unique PvP System, such as Massive Guild PvP modes, that do not exist anywhere else on the market if it wants to compete with other games, keep up with the times, and attract new generations of players.

    Dev's and Pub's should not be so quick to give up on PvP when it has so much entertainment and marketing potential on social media.

    If the game is not dying and people are just spewing nonsense on these forums, steam, and social media, then why would we need to change Vin's fate?

    When was the last time Community Managers were actively engaged with players on forums or social media? I don't even care if they lie to our faces when they apologize or say they love us, and value our opinions and feedback - at least put in some effort and say something.

    While I do admire your optimism and efforts to save the game, the community should not have to give 100% when the company is barely putting in 10%

    Just be prepared for the worst scenario and don't be disappointed if it happens.



    Edit: These forums won't even correct the right start time on Youtube videos; just start it at 14:28.
