    Ragnarok Begins is a love story to the golden days of the infamous Ragnarok Online MMORPG. In this video, I go over many things to consider for playing Ragnarok Begins and talk about the combat, gameplay, classes, dungeons, cosmetics, gacha, and MORE! This video is sponsored by Ragnarok Begins, but they allowed me to provide my honest thoughts about the game.

    I understand removing the merchant class since automated vending is so much more convenient, but removing the thief class feels too much. There probably won't be guild wars like from the original so rogues won't be as prevalent, but assassins are hella fun to play in a PVE setting

    The lack of thief and merchant in the starting jobs is a little...jarring.
    I feel like none of the newer Ragnarok games have properly captured the essence of everything that made the original good, but that could just be a product of the series trying to "modernize" over the years.

    • @hectormiguel172
      @hectormiguel172 Год назад +1

      This talks to you more about how the original Ragnarok was a product of it's era, it helped a lot in the past since most modern MMORPG took something from it to his gameplay/mechanics, but can't be properly modernized because most of which makes it great is just no longer the same in modern times

    • @mdalion

    As soon as I heard auto combat and auto questing, I am out.
    Games with such usually don't put effort on the writing or story or even the gameplay since most of players won't be there to read it or do it anyway. I play to play, not to watch.
    Also, the reason you play MMORPGs is to have interaction so if they are automated, you are better of with offline games.

    Loved Ragnarok online when i was growing up but the game design and mechanics have never change through the years. It's stuck in the early 2000s. It's not even because they want to retain the "classic" look. Gravity just became a lazy cash grab company and ruined the game

  • @ravengenesis

    my first RO experience was on the PSVita, I loved it. I'm soooooo tempted to try this out, but I have a fear of all games online service because they generally fail within 2 years and your experiences are now dead harder than great grandpa.

  • @VoiceofRetribution
    @VoiceofRetribution Год назад

    The game looks really cute but thats about it it gets to a complete hault at lvl 50 pretty much because when you actually wanna start crafting it limits your inventory and the items you can hold you can't even access storage and its limited until lvl 65 and not even on the kafra but in housing. Everything can be automated you can purchase play time for money. You can buy diamonds which is the casshop currency. Currently i hold around 500 diamonds at lvl 50 that i got from some achievements but if you were to buy every basic storage upgrade and buy 7200 diamonds with 80 dollars (which is a one time purchase). Then if you want to buy more you have to pay 80 dollars for 4320 diamonds. There are the following upgrades each costing around 2500 "maxed out Character Slot Expansion, Sturdy Bag, Enchanted Backpack, Strudy Crate (spelled wrong in game), Masterwork Strongbox" you have to pay 12500 diamonds so in order to buy every upgrade you have to pay 240 dollar and you have 3340 diamonds to spare. You can buy a reward pass which gives you a miniscule 500 stamina per day, which is around half your stamina you get every day. It gives you a whopping 20 diamonds per day for completing a challenge. Also a play pass where you can do more dungeons daily challenges and board quests costing 9 dollars. All this monetization is crazy and makes me angry that my childhood game is getting that awful cashgrab immoral treatment. Also this game isn't an mmo anymore it's just a gacha/mobile game. The fact they removed Thief and Assassin and Merchant speaks for itself. They also renamed every class in the most awful manner Impossible. Also my estimate is based on if you purchase the most expensive package it would cost alot more if you just buy bit by bit. Basically pay pay pay until you can't anymore really disappointing.

    Maaan this is so different from playing the original RO MMO. Its good that they recognise that the game is still alive but its quite the painful choice whether you choose this or old game as much as I love the old RO (classic, pre renewal or renewal) the old game did have flaws.
    I feel like this game will most likely lack the social aspect which was what made RO for me, meeting random people and just talking. On the other hand the old game has so many broken mechanics which is a part of the reason why private servers flourished imo because of the custom features + fixes.
    I like how they use the old BGM though, that one is a great plus.

    playing it right now and its very limiting. At 50s, i can slowly feel the "routine" in most mobile mmos. You consume your stamina during an afk grind, do your daily task and then logout and wait for reset to do it all over again. The game does not give me any reason to stay on as soon my stamina hits 0 as no exp is given to anything you kill at that point - its a very disappointing system.
