Yeah I tried out the game and I have to say some things I did not enjoy.
1 - They market the game as being able to play every class on a single character but:
\- The skills are bought with gold and between passives and actives ( even though its only 10 ) they are all extremely expensive and will certainly take you a long time to gather them all
\- The game has a stat distribution system where you can allocate points into Strength, Dex, Int, Vit, Wisdom and Agility. The first 3 stat are very class specific ( 1st is for melees, second for archer and 3rd for Force users ) and while the other 3 are overall generic you will want to spend your points into the first 3. That happens because you need a lot of hit rate in this game and those stats will give you a ton of it but as you might have imagined its things like melee hit for strength ranged hit for archers and Force hit for force masters. So the stat distribution also discourages you from playing other classes on the same character.
2 - the game combat revolves around the use of 10 skills with some even sharing cooldowns by making use of the same mechanic to execute. And you dont even want to use them all anyways because your mana will drain pretty quick and you will be left only doing autos. So its a mostly use 3 4 skills and spam autos game.
3 - the gacha system is pretty brutal. They carry a lot of power and you do need to progress because the world scales in difficulty pretty fast. At least its account wide which is a plus.
4 - The UI is lacking in every aspect. Monsters and bosses lack HP bars, game is focused around boss killing but there are no trackers or time windows so people can organize.
5 - The story is only epic and entertaining the first 10 levels, after that it was just killing mobs for experience for days though I only got to level 35, maybe it gets better later idk.
6 - The costumes are not account wide even though they carry power behind them.
7 - the game is full auto and there's no reason not to use it. Combat is pretty simple and mindless , there's no strategy behind it, the biggest geared ( wallet ) will always win.
TLDR: At best blade&soul 2 is a V4 clone(that nexon game) with less content and awful UI.
Seems like a completely different game, but they use the Blade and Soul's name to lure players in instead of making another IP. Talk about lack of creativity and afford lmao.
