I have 800 hours in elyon and can say I had a lot of fun with it. The breakthrough system and RNG upgrades were really bad though they needed lots of work. The combat was what made the game for me I couldnt care less about the story or graphics. I quit this game a couple months ago to grind lost ark and im sure at some point the MMO cycle will continue lol. elyon started dying as soon as it came out sadly just wish they would have done more to attempt to hold onto what little community they had to begin with.
i played non-stop in the closed beta because I was in-between work at the time. I was so hyped because the beta was relatively easy to play, level up and use the systems in the game.... but then the game launched and the rng took a HARD spike downward. Everything was impossible to farm, the marketplace was HEAVILY nerfed and the slayer was an ungodly imbalanced lord of destruction that was not even worth attempting to fight. All in all, the beta left me with hopes, but when the actual game launched those hopes were crushed when i saw the MASSIVE grind they intended all players to go through and the lack any sort of balance whatsoever..... also GIGA nerfing the marketplace meant my main way to make money was gone so there would be zero chance for me to catch up to the high rank players because I simply cant play this game all day. Poorly managed, poorly developed, and far too complicated to even begin to understand all the various systems at work in the game. Its like TERA on massive amounts of cocaine, pretending to be the same game.
I've never seen a mmo die as quickly as elyon.. except maybe tera (which had diablo 3 release to thank instead of lost ark). When tera went f2p it really revived though and surprisingly was able to hold an acceptable amount of players. Maybe if elyon went trough with the pay to play model and wait to make it f2p later while they fix the issues, it could have gotten the same revival. But for some reason they didn't. Maybe they just wanted it to die idk.. such a pity. I did like the combat and progress systems better than bdo / bns etc except the weird rng just took 80% of the fun out, of course. Also the dungeons were too boring/short and everyone just focused on bursting trough instead of learning mechanics (which is only because the devs tuned it like that unfortunately.) Was cool while it lasted.
I personally don't understand why they thought it's gonna suceed ,game was poorly optimised movement was wooden graphics not that great i mean compare it to for example GW2 10 year old game and sevrers are breaking from being that full... I think current games are being just created to generate money instead of giving players fun as they used to sad but wont be crying loads of games comming out .
i am blocked by region lock and cannot play this game... they are dividing global players into western and eastern… now eastern server is inviting me to play
for me the rng games and i are not friends so this game started ok but. (upgrade rng) i failed over 30 times back to back. to me thats not fun so i stopped playing
when you play game in 2022 with same engine as tera 15 YO of course game will be dead + p2win already added in shop!Gj Kakao :D! + game dont have enough features for an mmorpg!
most of the good graphics mmorpg not surviving long. Only those released years ago and that too with like league of legends style top down view are surviving
There is not a single top mmo graphics unless u will say BDO thats it there is none good mmos out there Bless Unleash boring only MMOS maybe will be Thone & Libery
Its sad, that you have 0 play experience this game, otherwise you would have known the game isn't dead. Raids and dungeons are still easy to find even 30 man raids, get cleared a couple of different raid teams per faction. Yes numbers are low, but isnt dead, soon (25th of may huge patch incoming) But yeah marketing wise, Kakao could have don a better job attracting new players. I can only speak for EU server, NA server has alot less people than EU though. Just sad, that Elyon has a rocky start on release, but they improved alot of stuff and is a really nice game now and soon we get more group content :)
under 1k players is a DEAD MMO. It's not a massive multiplayer online experience in any regard, I'm sure you can find dungeon and raid grotups with the small community left. It doesn't mean it's thriving or a healthy MMO, and when it shuts down within a year you'll understand.
@@Jarke than 95% or more mmos are dead aswell than. Elyon still has easy 600+ playerbase maybe more on eu alone. The only thing we can hope for is that with the new big paladin patch. And Tera shutting down. That they will try and do something to get more players . Because the game itself is really nice
@@LunasasMovie actually, you are right, 95% or more of MMOs are dead .. generally, the MMORPG genre is considered dead except for a few titles and even these titles are considered dead if we gonna compare them to their golden days.
@@Jarke brah who's your dealer. mmo servers can't have more than 3k players by default. EU elyon has easily 1k players now since game is getting more populated( many returning players and lots of new players). So yeah game doesn't have 999 servers capped like your ideal non existent mmo but in elyon even with 300 players you can do all content. All you did was speak with steam player count and reviews saying game is p2w and such monkas. you didn't even bother playing it for a bit seeing how it's actually going and just did a poorly and wrong review. would have took you 2 hours and speak to some player in game and you could have made a honest review, not a shit talking review. actual clown.
Any mmorpg with ip block conduct deserves this. R.I.P
In addition to being a dead game, we in south america (Brazil, Uruguay, argentina, chile, bolivia etc) the game has VPN blocked for us
Yup
I really agree with everything the red flags were present before they even launched the game.
Sadly TERA will be shutting down in June as well.
TERA is shutting down???? NOOOO😭😭
@@Akaiiro Yeah unfortunately. Bluehole decided they didnt want to keep updating the game any more.
@@Akaiiro yup sadly
@@itisthefear probably Tera 2 in the progress!
2:33 and tera shutting down :(
I can't believe Elyon died before Bless Unleashed...
It's getting more support from the devs that Blessed Unleashed. But I'd argue that it has less players.
Played it for 2 days. Never logged in again.
Elyon isn't even on the store anymore, hardly surprising as they announced they're shutting it down lmao
As a long time TERA player. I was in the Elyon discord before launch trying to warn the player base and they were flaming me. lmao

It was awesome at its peak man so many players but now dead asf

they killed TERA for this shouldve made improvement to TERA instead like NCsoft did with BnS
Tera WAS a better game... The problem of Elyon is not be a global game, IP Restrictions killed the game
Got the beta key, saw 3 levels of RNG progression that they were clearly going to monetise, rolled my eyes and uninstalled.
I can't believe that Bless Unleashed has more players on Steam DB than Elyon.

Mostly lack of content... any recommendation for similar better mmorpg?
The game had such a potential, they could've made it more like new gen Tera instead of trying to be a copy of BDO with additional RNG shit

once they add p2w people dropped it
Ha
More like elyoff
Elyon is the only game i play its so fun and people are missing out
you gonna be playing by yourself soon bro
how much did you spend?
@@Jarkehahahaha
i still play it and i will do it till they will close it..
@@M1Y4MUS4SH1 well you got 3 more months LOL
You were ahead of your time, the game will be shut down soon.
the writing was clear on the wall just people were denying the obvious

I play for a few days quit very boring too much stuff
nothing special
To much p2w
most of the good graphics mmorpg not surviving long. Only those released years ago and that too with like league of legends style top down view are surviving
There is not a single top mmo graphics unless u will say BDO thats it
there is none good mmos out there
Bless Unleash boring
only MMOS maybe will be Thone & Libery
Easy solution to play this game
Go away w this shit! PW still running! xDD
life support is not something to brag about
It’s not dead it’s actually a pretty great game I’ll never stop playing
under 1k players for an mmorpg is dead.
Lol it's dead bro. You can keep enjoying it but if they're shutting down Tera then this is definitely getting shut down eventually
your comment aged poorly
Its sad, that you have 0 play experience this game, otherwise you would have known the game isn't dead.
Raids and dungeons are still easy to find even 30 man raids, get cleared a couple of different raid teams per faction.
Yes numbers are low, but isnt dead, soon (25th of may huge patch incoming)
But yeah marketing wise, Kakao could have don a better job attracting new players.
