MMOEXP: Infinite windwalking as another major feature of Blade and Soul
The showcase video provides a commentary-free look at several aspects of the MMORPG, including a look at its BnS NEO Divine Gems opening story segment (which isn’t really different but is pretty-fied), the game’s character creator (in case fans weren’t already making a character ahead of time), its improved visuals, the ability to infinitely windwalk (saying “whee” is optional but strongly recommended), the variety of PvE and PvP content that awaits players for both solo players and groups, and new systems such as weapon soul cores and skill books that modify attacks and item-enhancing mantras.
The video below provides a pretty comprehensive look at just what BaS NEO is offering when it arrives on Tuesday, February 25th, so make sure to set aside that time to take a look if you’re up for it. And for more about NEO’s features, update plans, and monetization, make sure to check out our own reporting from a recent press event if you haven’t already.
That was my takeaway from last week’s press preview, where NC America reps explained that it’s not exactly a progression server, but it’s not a pure classic throwback server either. Readers will remember that the game was originally marketed as BnS NEO Divine Gems for sale, so we assumed NC was just doing what so many MMO studios do and chucking up the old version for nostalgia gamers (and easy money).
