    As the title suggests the Black Desert and Blade and Soul Divisions are now open and you can apply to the usergroup!

    Although the divisions are open, I will be gauging for the first 30 days to see if it will be supported or not; this will be a new procedure that will be standard for all new divisions. What does this mean? That means if we don't get enough people participating or I determine that the game is "Pay to Win" or doesn't support us playing together.

    So please join and let's gauge interest in Black Desert and Blade and Soul!


    See you in-game

    I'm still testing BnS, but what I see is this could support a smaller community; one around the size of 20 to 25 people due to it mainly being pve and small pvp. The game doesn't seem like it's a pay to win game, however, being a premium member is a huge advantage. BnS is also very fun and seems extremely skill based.

    As for BDO, I'm not sure. I need to talk to the people who have been testing it this weekend.

    Biggest thing is I need people to sign up and commit. Then among those we need to get leadership and move forward. It all depends how many people actually join and how dedicated people are.

    They said that the closed beta 2 was going to be jan 7th is, from what the Community manager said in chat. Release will be around Feb, but who knows.

    End game is pretty easy to get to, depending on how they do the experience scaling for NA leveling to the soft cap takes about 18 hours with pure mob grinding and doing some of the lower level quests. Then just do the quests that give inventory slot items, contribution, etc
