How to make this game incredibly successful

[gifthorse]

I like cute and sexy, but only if it is tasteful.... what you want is blatant sexist crap -.-

I hate all these new MMORPGs that are using sexy adds, when the game has nothing to do with the image.

I think Blade & Soul looks like crap.... the females have faces of 5 year olds, bodies of super models, and thighs/legs of a 300 pound person -.- and all... not some..... but ALL of the outfits are showy and "sexy"

I hate tasteless use of sex and boobs in games.....and yes I am a guy -.- ....and no I am not gay.

Are you sure?

The videos of Blade&Soul I've watched don't show exclusively objectified women. You're thinking of TERA.

Also, there are multiple "races" in B&S, each representing a different body type. Some are buff, some are pearshaped, some are thin.

Also, have you seen the character creation videos for B&S. The males are equally objectified, so at least there is gender equality.

Not that that makes it any less tacky!

everytime i hear bikini and skirts i must think of aion, where gladiator girls with sparkling dresses tanked mobs and such.
Why dont these people play aion? i dont get it...
most korean mmos offer exactly that BS... im all for gear and stuff looking great/sexy, but on the other hand i want it to at least look somehow suitable for the job... all the Cute-ness wont add a bit to an exciting game world. It would make it stupid and i think barby online with large scale mass- f*** pve content would be a better idea...

the post was a joke right?

[Kailea_Nagisa]

back on topic huh? ok here then....

doing anything the OP says to his level would be bad for the game not help it. It would turn the game into the crap that Terra and Blade&Soul are/will be

some of his ideas are ok, but only in a tasteful manner.

Honestly I played WoW and actually found myself on Moon guard that is the cyber server (cybershire) most ppl shout xxx rated comments or force erp on you. Then when you refuse shout verbally harrassing comments. Cybering on WoW is as worst as you can get as that game has a huge childen following. Also think about it, it is pretty pathetic to get your jollies on a gane target to children and young adults. . Ingfact it is pretty pathetic to cyber ingeneral on a video game. Second life is a bit ok as they have seperate room that require age varification. WoW don't have anything of that nature and mmo have rules against cybering. Also because of cybering I got called some pretty nasty things on WoW for trying to role play as a low level character. Got bullied then temp baned for sticking up for myself. So cybering can effect others.

must... play... wow...

Anyway, you've got my compassion, Kilta. I feel really sorry about your story and I like the fact that you tought us a good lesson for our acutal/future children.

What was the topic again? Oh right.
Yeah, basically you can find sexism in almost every traffic advertisement. Maybe marketing persons think that everybody thinks with their genitals? Who knows!

Anyhow, I'm not the type that will surely buy things that have a naked woman on it. I mean, I would jack off, but not buy, which reminds me my "Sex sells but who's buying" thing I've said before.

Wait, did I just say... whoops.

Also most ppl who cyber are infact lil kids.... I ran into a few claiming to be 10-12 year old girls. Also look into the 360 PSU demo. That is the worst of the worst. PPl claim to be 8 year olds selling xxx rated pics for game money. And people actually buy into it.

having an option for sexy women is a + having everyone wear potatoe sacks is not.

Its about options.
More sexy clothes, for me thats a + for others maybe not, but then you dont have to wear it. (ffxi rdm wears hotpants)

romantic storylines, how about more storylines at all. If they truely want to get rpg gamers from console they need to add more progression through exploration and story, this is why most people buy rpgs, i dont know why mmos have come to think its not a major part of the genre. Especially JRPGs in going online FF forgot what the difference between them and wrpgs were. and hey if they have some romantic storyline subplot that people who like can enjoy, that only gives the game more appeal.

its best for the game, and really any body trying to make an MMO to try to hit multiple markets, MMOs should have something for everyone, it even works better here, because you could have people who like cutesy crap persuing the plotlines about that, and people who like the battles with dragons pursuing that. And the dudes who like sluts persuing that, and the people who think they are all going to hell pursuing that.

You realize the ingame text has strippers, hoes, money grubbing aholes, sluts, religous leaders, aristocrats, moral high ground people, its really a quite complex and varied world, the game should reflect that.

BTW ul dah is the center of sin. you want morality go to gridania.

I would welcome more sexy outfits and proportions.

If you can not deal with sexuality, you need to grow up.

there is a difference in adding sexuality to a game, and what some of the games to day are doing.

Fable I, II, & III did it fine
Fallout 3 and NV did it fine
The Witcher did it fine

alot of these free to play MMOs and Terra/B&S go overboard
