  1. Honest feedback from a player since KR CBT.
  2.  
  3. Well, where do we start honestly, guess I will try and keep it short and sweet with a few of the key points which have killed the game for me (and possibly many of the original KR players).
  4.  
  5. 1) Removal of exclusive housing, prior to launch houses were only own-able by a single player on a server, thus making owning a housing and paying the rent to keep it an integral part of your account management, but now days throw a contribution point at the map and enjoy your house forever with no form of upkeep. This was also involved with the Inn system which allowed players to rent a room at one of the Inns(Bars) such as Golden Toad Inn and Velia Inn, but was obviously additionally scrapped and put into the standard housing system. Imho, housing went from a 10/10 right down to a 2/10 with no sense of individuality and upkeep to drive cash shop sales for housing cosmetics.
  6.  
  7. 2) This one will probably be controversial due to the general nature of MMORPGs and their expansions, but I believe with the amount of content updates the game has received has completely devalued any form of World PvP and GvGs, everyone is so spread out now, that you can just leave and grind somewhere else and no lose a great deal of income in both XP and Silver if you are being PK'd which is never how the game was originally, and was a great draw to a lot of it's original players, as guilds/skilled players would be able to hold a grind spot down and keep it competitive and would lead to lots of social interaction among guilds and even other players caught in the onslaught. Now the furthest extent you get to any form of communication for PvP is "Hi SiR pLeAsE dUeL fOr SpOt".
  8.  
  9. 3) The Duel System. This system imho, completely killed OWPvP and made the entire game a care bear griefer fest a long with the 1% of XP loss on death being removed, opening the game up to the casuals which was NEVER the games target audience, but because of both Pearl Abyss and Kakao being greedy, they did an entire 180 on their original players and said "haha get fucked plebs we're loving all the casual players money", and us vets have been left with a dead siege, with awful balancing and none of the original players left due to the incompetency of Kakao and their awful servers and Pearl Abyss pure ignorance of trying to push players who have put in not even half of the effort to take part in sieges, which is a joke and basically tells all dedicated Veteran players their time originally was wasted as here you can get x for free now even though you worked hundreds of hours for x.
  10.  
  11. 4) Server Merge. The server merge imho completely killed the communities built up within their servers and completely ruined Siege, Guild and PvP politics in general as people just able to hop to any one of the 32 channels which we had after merge and get off completely scot free due to previous systems implemented and the server merge.
  12.  
  13. 5) Class balance. Where do I start with this one lmao, due to the nature of the game being very different between KR and EUNA due to several factors, the way the game is played is much different, thus needing separate class balancing for EUNA, but sadly this will never happen due to our amazing publisher filling their pre-launch with a bunch of empty promises and attempting to showing a true lack of disconnect with their community to appease the higher income group of players (The casuals).
  14.  
  15. 6) KashKow. I think this is honestly the biggest complaint I have for EUNA, I have never seen a more incompetent publisher for an MMORPG in my entire time playing MMORPG's, thus lets start with the hacker and anti-cheat issue. We've been plagued by the most obnoxious rootkit in existence since launch, which is completely useless for anything other than collecting logs of their users, their `detected` programs list is completely useless as anyone with half of a brain about hacking/modding can get around that in about 40 seconds, in addition that, we then have Emulating XIGNCode and full on bypassing it, I obviously wont go into details on how it's done (but it is extremely easy to do so and would take any techsavy person about 30 minutes to completely get around it), but it's possible since the launch of the game and has not be amended once while easily being one of the easiest issues to fix that the western version of the game is plagued with. It got patched for a single week with shuffling memory and then was right back to normal after the next patch thus showing us they have the capabilities to fix the issue but are just pure lazy and have no innovative minds within their team and show a true lack of respect for all their players new and old. In addition to that, our so called good egg publisher has lied through their teeth to us since the very beginning knowing for well they have no genuine interest in making the player experience better and just bringing income for their company to expand and swallow up other studios/companies, EG Purchasing the developers of ArcheAge. Then we have the clear corruption of staff members allowing specific users to continue to hacking which have been doing so since the launch due to ties with them from other regions of the game prior to EUNA, I will not name anyone here to protect their privacy due to how much said people have invested in the game and for the fact I can't be truly bothered to deal with watching the community backlash and leave those people with a fully dead game where all their time and money has been wasted, but everyone should be aware, they are fighting an up hill battle they will never win due to internal corruption of KashKow. In addition to that, we have the over censorship of the in-game chat and KashKow treating their players like they're infants in a competitive PvP focused MMORPG centered around politics and competition/bullying of other guilds/alliances, and they've tried to remove the fundamental end game of the original players by doing so making EUNA the worst region for players to invest their time in due to the SJW censorship nature of their failure of a company.
  16.  
  17. If anyone is interested in further views from an original KR player feel free to let me know and I will continue to add to the list which some more in-game issues, but I felt it would be best to outline some of the bigger points of what has ruined the western version of the game
