Best MMO combat you could ever get! Awesome classes and skills. Beautiful game world and lore. Amazing dungeons. Trash raids. Worst P2W in gaming history. If you ever want to experience heart break from a video game play this.
This neo classic is doomed to fail. B&S was amazing the first 5 months then became an absolute p2w disaster (hello Trove)which killed the game forever. If you bring back B&S without p2w it might be interesting, otherwise just rolling back version but still keeping cashgrab features is useless, there's no point it would not be classic but just the same game as current B&S.
Just focus on fashion and pve, is where the real fun is at, then I do not see it pay to win at all.. The unbalanced pvp is not where this game shines!.. Go play some Genshin or Tower of Fantasy and then you realize what pay to win is, even Black Desert campsite and subscriptions are more expensive.. B&S is just cheap compared to that and is more like paying for some convenience and some great cosmetics.. Every game should have someway or another to monetize its existence.. If you would have want a game alike that had no pay to win pve/pvp that was truly free to play while still having great free fashion - then the community should not have had a game like Swords of Legends die off, that was truly a next level experience from B&S.. But somehow people were blindfolded for true masterpieces like that.. Don`t trash talk this B&S leftover to death also, because then we are in the end only left with some bunny boy FFXIV tab target idle learn the unintuitive dungeon mechanics out of your head, or get yelled at type of game with ugly open world and chores upon chores of grinding numb story and endless time consuming crafting professions, There is a difference in time well spend and or time lost spending.. Go figure and keep it real..
That was very beautiful, but to get new players playing and bring life back into the game, your gonna have to cut down on all those micro transactions, P2E ( pay to everything ) and probably fix some other things about the game that made people leave
"pay to everything" is not an excuse for being lazy or bad at the current game they already spoon feed 90% of the gear to you. the bigger is problem is bots and gold buyers

i did read the rest of it and there was nothing wrong with that the problem was in saying that BnS is pay to win when it very much is not. all free mmo's have micro transactions and its foolish to think that they should remove those the people who complain about pay to win are the people who play the game solo and refuse to interact with other people @@grumpysheep3710

Can't wait for Hardcore BnS NEO Classic by my FAVORITE Korean company, NCSoft!!! After you spend 50k USD on cash shop gems for your Hongmoon Socks and Underwear, you heroically DIE in the fire of the dungeon boss entrance because someone pulled the boss early. Your character gets deleted and you get to do it again from level 1! This will TRULY test the limits of the Hongmoon Wallet! Do not disappoint me, NCSoft!!!
I quit wow the day I found out about this game back in the day. I never had a pc to be able to play properly then I got one that can run it a bit but now I don't have the time😢 I'm glad people can still discover this game. It was beautiful.
My immediate thoughts were similar, "I dont have time to enjoy this"...funny how growing up responsibilities and life just kinda restrict your hobbies to a degree. Like starting your first job to buy games you want only to discover you dont have enough time to enjoy them as you did before. Very few games now I will go experience myself, and I limit how far I stretch myself out, but now Im alright with watching others play and living vicariously that way xD
I have not have any low fps since UE 4 release. Don't really know why people still think this is a thing. Before UE4 i remember the 4-12 fps days, But it's been smooth sailing since UE4 release for me.
@@Draknalor186 Ive tried it twice since UE4 release. The week UE4 update released I literally had 20 fps max while on lowest graphics with 12gb rtx 3080 and i7 12700k. I gave it a try a couple months later hoping they'd flesh out the performance overtime but it was only a tiny bit better than the first time. I was still hovering between 30-40 fps which is borderline unplayable and unacceptable. My friend with slightly worse specs was having same issue where he was struggling to pull 30 fps. game is literally unplayable
You tried it twice 2 years ago and still think it's unplayable today.. Kinda weird mindset, but OK. @@MusicNationPlus It works fine for me, Any where from 50 to 120 fps during combat, depending on which zone i am in or how many people are around.

I Shourdaded ajanara against nayul i am 100+ fps always
I have very fond memories of my Summoner or whatever and two-manning the first dungeon with a friend. Pet tanking and me healing it/swapping threat, and we finished the entire dungeon with just us two. Absolutely loved the game back then, until an update reset my build and I had no idea how I managed to pull that off the first time. Or if it was even possible anymore after that patch... But still, doing stuff like that in games with a friend is easily my favorite thing in co-op gaming.
The game does look much better than before, I really hope to see a more subtle way for them to make money instead of making everything P2W. Keep it up!
Unless PvP is revived (basically reverting the game) the game will never see popularity like the past. You had literally the best MMO 1v1 in the world and threw it away for PvE balance.
@@abdelrahmanrad Well yeah, it was interesting to have MMO PvE and rpg elements with a well done 1v1 competitive scene, it was a big part of its popularity
it wont, people are more aware of p2w and stuff, having non- balanced open world pvp when the game its p2w its just gonna make lose players, although it was a core feature on the original one, should be removed. should be like lost ark. balanced arena, 1 vs 1 or 3 vs 3 pvp or very specifc conditions to open world pvp. not a core part of the game.
I sometimes get reminded of this gem of a game (played it for a year when it released) and to this day I didn't find anything that compares to how fun the pvp was back then. kinda hopium but I'll check this update out whenever it releases. just looks like a visual overhaul though, but maybe it fixes the fps issues?
OMG is this an official classic server? While I still play bns to this day! As a former KFM main I''ve always wanted pre awakening patch KFM to comeback and a classic server on UE4 is what I've dreamed of
This game isn't going to have a surge or retention in population until it can have decent performance... That's one of the only things keeping people from wanting to play.
@@kyoden1928 it made it worse. Was struggling to get 30 fps since UE4 release. Changing graphics barely impacted performance and surprisingly having them on high pulled more frames than lowest. Its unplayable for me with an RTX 3080 and i7 12700k lmao
@@MusicNationPlusidk whats up with ur pc but i have a 3060ti and ryzen 5 5600x and get 60fps in fights. That on decent graphics only using shadows on 1 rest is max p much.
BnS back in the day was amazing and in my opinion ahead of its time when it first came out. overtime tho the company basically burned the game and ruined it over the years along with iirc they had a different publisher.
I hope they bring back all those cool, deep story side quests. Last time I started the current bns a year ago, it all felt so empty and heartless, you rushed through those regions where once so many exciting or just fun easter egg side quests happened. Never understood why they removed them and not kept them optional for players to enjoy, after all they would gain more if people play the game longer, no? and new players would felt more interested instead of just rushing and being confused what even is going on lol. They could take a look at how ESO does their story quests. But curious to see where this version will lead us too! Would love to experience the wonder and beauty of BNS when it first released again
It was so cool to see people run around with weird accessories, I used to ask everyone where they got this or that and it was often an obscure quest or a rare drop from a mob somewhere. They really captured the magic of mmo drops well. Traversing the zones with the gliding and wall running felt so liberating and epic as well. If they manage to do the core aspects justice I'll come back, but I am skeptical since it's NCSoft after all...
so when wow classic was released they released it with the KNOWN bugs and game breaking glitches still released (patched after a few weeks of course) Does that mean that all the original bugs will remain in neo for the first week or two? cause if we all are being honest. every patch only took what we were ABLE to do away never fixing underlying issues with game until major patches and updates. I want to be able to backflip through doors Craft keys and sell them to stores for profit. Farm the first two world bosses for exp. WE MISS MISTY WOODS DRAGON!!!!!
Yeah. Blade and soul is horrible now. They should learn from genshin impact how to run cash shop... Is it so hard to make hongmoon coins actually accessible to free players and give choice to pay for everything {minus services like level boost, subscription, name change and so on} using hongmoon coins? Pack which is worth 6000 coins? Make it obtainable by playing a game for let's say a month. People won't buy using cash? Lazy ones will.Whales want to have everything here and now. There's no way they'll be farming for one month to get a boost they can buy instantly.
I gladly wasted many years of my life on this game, but since I quit in 2021, no way I'm coming back even for nostalgia. The P2W really left a bad taste in my mouth.
I love almost everything about this. The only bad thing, NCsoft still at the helm so it's just going to be the same money hungry platform all over again.
Cool variety of locations, a world that you want to watch repeatedly, nice combat that asks you to plug in the gamepad, nice music, on par with Linage 2, and an awesome story, which I even recorded on videos and uploaded to RUclips. Jin Seo Yeon is still the best game heroine for me!
Is it hard to monetize on exclusive skins (and maybe a monthly pseudo-subscription like BDO's value pack) instead of actually affecting the gearing up proccess NCSoft? Because if the monetization remains the same, it will die that fast.
I loved BnS. Enough for me to pretend to be a Korean, then a Taiwanese and when the launched it in NA swapped over immediately. Played the same story same dungeon same everything repeatedly on different server and never got bored because of the combat. However how Ncsoft handled the game ultimately killed it for me. They promised no censorship, then censored the game day one. Said they won't have RNG lootbox. Within the first month they released RNG box and made it the only way to obtain some outfits on top of treasure trove on selling soul stones. Said they any advantage from buying and then soon after sold gems, and pets with stats that you other wise will struggle to obtain. Said they would tackle the botting issue but never stopped seeing the destroyer bot train from the starting area all the way to max level. Then I came back and found out they completely remade the combat system so that you now basically have to press 1 button and I just gave up completely. As someone who loved the game enough to play it on 3 server and spend thousands of dollars NCsoft's management of the game was the nail in the coffin for me.
I'd be hyped for this if NCSoft wasn't at the helm. Their biggest talent is making an L out of an easy W and that's a shame. This game was amazing back in the day and I loved playing it.
Hope we get a single player version in the next 20/30 years 😭😭 it's the only way i see for us to enjoy the game and the story itself without the p2w and all the problems of the current game/company...
If they do this, of course I will play. Before awakening, I didn't forget how fun KFM was in pvp. It calls me back to the days when my only problem was dropping the poharan weapon along with hundreds of people. I hope they don't repeat the mistakes they made in aion classic.
I still have vivid nightmares from the days in PVP that if you were up against a kfm and you messed up your escapes, you were better off just tabbing out and browsing twitter, because you were stuck there until your escape got off cooldown, only for it to be on cooldown again...
Fun? You mean imbalanced? Easiest 100-0 in the game and all it takes is 1 slip up from your opponent. Best case scenario for them when they mess up is that you take off 60% of their health without even using a big cooldown.
It's pretty much a new game. It's a classic server so everything will be like the old days and they promised not to make the same mistakes as before. I'm definitely coming back, I've missed this game so much
i wish this video and/or the site contained more information on this game. idk what platforms its going to be for, what engine its going to be on, the core game itself, etc. though ive never really made it too far in bns, but maybe this one will compel me to progress in.
This game had my heart, it was the second mmo i ever played at 11 lmao, but oh the heartbreak as i grew up and realised what fiends the company were. Its been 10 long years my friend, i may briefly say hello again, but im never getting sucked back into your bullshit again
The developers of this game let problems persist for months, sometimes even when the problems are as silly as something that works on EU, Russia, and Korea servers but does not work on NA servers (meaning they have all the code, they just need to set the correct parameters, and they can't be bothered to get around to it for months). These aren't trivial issues, either, they are things like the most valuable benefit of their for-money premium membership simply not working, or their big new progress/equipment system deleting every item that one attempts to equip to it, or their currency exchange being broken such that no one is able to sell gold except for at a ridiculously low 100:1 rate (again, all for months). In the face of these problems they aren't even willing to say they are aware of the problem and are working on a fix, the developers remain silent for months until they can get around to looking at the problem while support is incredibly patronizing and lies to you about what happened even when you provide screenshots or actual video, never apologizing. Meanwhile, rather than hire people to fill in the obvious gaps they lay off more and more people. They take zero pride in their main product, providing only incompetent/dishonest support and negligent/overloaded developers, and there's zero chance this spin-off will be better.
You don't need to re-release the game. You have four continents filled with dungeons you chose to make irrelevant. You have several raids you chose to make irrelevant. The game currently consists of spamming two dungeons over and over again just to make numbers go up. That's it. The graphics are not the problem. The combat is not the problem. The bots were not and no longer are the problem. Even being able to pay to progress, was never the problem. You deleted your own game. That's why people quit.
I don't understand why they never wanted to bring this game to the Latin American region and global version in general. A shame, I always liked this game and due to the IP restriction I have, I have not been able to play it after the updated Next-Gen in 2018.
Are they releasing bns classic like blizzard did with wow? Bns pre awakening was the best game ever for me so i ll come back if your game has frames better ms and a better engine, cuz what you did with ue4 lets be real it was as trash as ue3 you only fixed the ms a little bit which is absurd nowadays to have such a bad optimized game. I run 80-100 fps in a node war in bdo with 300 ppl fighting eachother around and you cant even keep 40 with 12 ppl in a raid...
Just a reminder that BNS wasn't the issue back then, and nowadays. It was the company.

@@MusicNationPlusidk whats up with ur pc but i have a 3060ti and ryzen 5 5600x and get 60fps in fights. That on decent graphics only using shadows on 1 rest is max p much.
@@maddoshiYou are probably not a raid figther, with soulburn and everything else your pc died
When is the release date??
Definitely excited for this
I forgot i played Blade and Soul it was so great !
My memories came alive, the best gaming experience is coming back.
Don’t mess it up. At least I’m glad they’re reworking the graphics again after butchering some areas with the UE4 update.
Went from possibly my favorite mmo ever to dust in a matter of 2 years.. so sad. This game was amazing
classic with all classes and no p2w pls, hope
we are so back!
BnS back in the day was amazing and in my opinion ahead of its time when it first came out. overtime tho the company basically burned the game and ruined it over the years along with iirc they had a different publisher.
The old B&S's shiny skin is superior, but it requires improvement.
I hope they bring back all those cool, deep story side quests. Last time I started the current bns a year ago, it all felt so empty and heartless, you rushed through those regions where once so many exciting or just fun easter egg side quests happened. Never understood why they removed them and not kept them optional for players to enjoy, after all they would gain more if people play the game longer, no? and new players would felt more interested instead of just rushing and being confused what even is going on lol. They could take a look at how ESO does their story quests.
But curious to see where this version will lead us too! Would love to experience the wonder and beauty of BNS when it first released again
It was so cool to see people run around with weird accessories, I used to ask everyone where they got this or that and it was often an obscure quest or a rare drop from a mob somewhere. They really captured the magic of mmo drops well. Traversing the zones with the gliding and wall running felt so liberating and epic as well. If they manage to do the core aspects justice I'll come back, but I am skeptical since it's NCSoft after all...
so when wow classic was released they released it with the KNOWN bugs and game breaking glitches still released (patched after a few weeks of course)
Does that mean that all the original bugs will remain in neo for the first week or two? cause if we all are being honest. every patch only took what we were ABLE to do away never fixing underlying issues with game until major patches and updates.
I want to be able to backflip through doors
Craft keys and sell them to stores for profit.
Farm the first two world bosses for exp.
WE MISS MISTY WOODS DRAGON!!!!!
the most underrated game ever
I remember everyone was talking and playing it before they ruined it with p2w
BNS was never underrated it was one of the most hype anime mmo back then, the hype just died because it took them years to release it outside of KR
I’m excited for this. Are you guys going to give it a try? The game needs more players more than anything!
SEA server?? any info?
Cannot wait to play it on my phone man.
In b4 NcSoft corporate greed pricing makes the game awful again. I despise the Cash shop > performance and actual update mentality. Hard pass.
Yeah. Blade and soul is horrible now. They should learn from genshin impact how to run cash shop...
Is it so hard to make hongmoon coins actually accessible to free players and give choice to pay for everything {minus services like level boost, subscription, name change and so on} using hongmoon coins? Pack which is worth 6000 coins? Make it obtainable by playing a game for let's say a month. People won't buy using cash? Lazy ones will.Whales want to have everything here and now. There's no way they'll be farming for one month to get a boost they can buy instantly.
I gladly wasted many years of my life on this game, but since I quit in 2021, no way I'm coming back even for nostalgia. The P2W really left a bad taste in my mouth.
Ncsoft é dificil trazer um Servidor SA ?
I love almost everything about this. The only bad thing, NCsoft still at the helm so it's just going to be the same money hungry platform all over again.
WHO CARES? NcSoft has alway been like that and always will be idc i still play ncsoft games at times
Cool variety of locations, a world that you want to watch repeatedly, nice combat that asks you to plug in the gamepad, nice music, on par with Linage 2, and an awesome story, which I even recorded on videos and uploaded to RUclips. Jin Seo Yeon is still the best game heroine for me!
what's new? they improved the latency as well?
Surprised this game is still afloat
Been playing since China servers
Is it hard to monetize on exclusive skins (and maybe a monthly pseudo-subscription like BDO's value pack) instead of actually affecting the gearing up proccess NCSoft? Because if the monetization remains the same, it will die that fast.
I loved BnS. Enough for me to pretend to be a Korean, then a Taiwanese and when the launched it in NA swapped over immediately. Played the same story same dungeon same everything repeatedly on different server and never got bored because of the combat.
However how Ncsoft handled the game ultimately killed it for me. They promised no censorship, then censored the game day one. Said they won't have RNG lootbox. Within the first month they released RNG box and made it the only way to obtain some outfits on top of treasure trove on selling soul stones. Said they any advantage from buying and then soon after sold gems, and pets with stats that you other wise will struggle to obtain. Said they would tackle the botting issue but never stopped seeing the destroyer bot train from the starting area all the way to max level. Then I came back and found out they completely remade the combat system so that you now basically have to press 1 button and I just gave up completely.
As someone who loved the game enough to play it on 3 server and spend thousands of dollars NCsoft's management of the game was the nail in the coffin for me.
What exactly is classic for BNS? In L2 it made sense, but here?
i can't wait for this
What's this? From Unreal Engine 4 to Unreal Engine 5 with Raytracing? 👀👀👌👌
from UE3 to UE4
@@mickiekatsuragi2690 Again?
Will be down to comeback if they stick to a sub model & ONLY cosmetic in the shop. Otherwise forget this NC to greedy.
I'd be hyped for this if NCSoft wasn't at the helm. Their biggest talent is making an L out of an easy W and that's a shame. This game was amazing back in the day and I loved playing it.
Hope we get a single player version in the next 20/30 years 😭😭 it's the only way i see for us to enjoy the game and the story itself without the p2w and all the problems of the current game/company...
If they do this, of course I will play. Before awakening, I didn't forget how fun KFM was in pvp. It calls me back to the days when my only problem was dropping the poharan weapon along with hundreds of people. I hope they don't repeat the mistakes they made in aion classic.
Yeah! Go away, awakening!
I still have vivid nightmares from the days in PVP that if you were up against a kfm and you messed up your escapes, you were better off just tabbing out and browsing twitter, because you were stuck there until your escape got off cooldown, only for it to be on cooldown again...
Fun? You mean imbalanced? Easiest 100-0 in the game and all it takes is 1 slip up from your opponent. Best case scenario for them when they mess up is that you take off 60% of their health without even using a big cooldown.
Do this game will have old KFM skills[wind build]?? like this old pvp combos?
thinking about returning, after seeing this
NGL the raids on this game is topnotch till now
I will play it
they discovered color saturation.
Ưhat’s platform for this game ? Pc or moblie
Any release date for this?
What is this? just a overhaul or a new game?
It's pretty much a new game. It's a classic server so everything will be like the old days and they promised not to make the same mistakes as before. I'm definitely coming back, I've missed this game so much
release date?@@salemkoussa5395
Sounds cool. If they actually don't mess it up, that'd be awesome.@@salemkoussa5395
i wish this video and/or the site contained more information on this game. idk what platforms its going to be for, what engine its going to be on, the core game itself, etc. though ive never really made it too far in bns, but maybe this one will compel me to progress in.
Bring it to steam
Will this be released Globally or with SEA atleast?
If yes, looking forward to this!
This game had my heart, it was the second mmo i ever played at 11 lmao, but oh the heartbreak as i grew up and realised what fiends the company were. Its been 10 long years my friend, i may briefly say hello again, but im never getting sucked back into your bullshit again
Will you do a South American server this time? If there is, I'll play, because playing with 150~200+ ping is torture.
I don't understand what the difference is, only the colors look more colorful, so are they re-releasing the same game again?
I will give it a try hope it can be more reasonable server
lets'go!
The developers of this game let problems persist for months, sometimes even when the problems are as silly as something that works on EU, Russia, and Korea servers but does not work on NA servers (meaning they have all the code, they just need to set the correct parameters, and they can't be bothered to get around to it for months). These aren't trivial issues, either, they are things like the most valuable benefit of their for-money premium membership simply not working, or their big new progress/equipment system deleting every item that one attempts to equip to it, or their currency exchange being broken such that no one is able to sell gold except for at a ridiculously low 100:1 rate (again, all for months). In the face of these problems they aren't even willing to say they are aware of the problem and are working on a fix, the developers remain silent for months until they can get around to looking at the problem while support is incredibly patronizing and lies to you about what happened even when you provide screenshots or actual video, never apologizing. Meanwhile, rather than hire people to fill in the obvious gaps they lay off more and more people.
They take zero pride in their main product, providing only incompetent/dishonest support and negligent/overloaded developers, and there's zero chance this spin-off will be better.
love this gameeee mannn
So, there won't be the new classes ? No bard etc??
You don't need to re-release the game. You have four continents filled with dungeons you chose to make irrelevant. You have several raids you chose to make irrelevant. The game currently consists of spamming two dungeons over and over again just to make numbers go up. That's it. The graphics are not the problem. The combat is not the problem. The bots were not and no longer are the problem. Even being able to pay to progress, was never the problem. You deleted your own game. That's why people quit.
I don't understand why they never wanted to bring this game to the Latin American region and global version in general. A shame, I always liked this game and due to the IP restriction I have, I have not been able to play it after the updated Next-Gen in 2018.
So I need to pay for the graphic update too?
Ill play at this time only if you put a server for Brazilians i already know how the ping is important for this game!
Will thie release before or after GTA 6 for pc ?
So is this the remake of the current game? Like can I use my current character, someone please explain
Classic the besttt
ok so for me to understand does this mean its a new classic version of the current BNS or are they integrating it into the current game?
A new server seperate from the current game
@@jonzo99so they want players to start all over again? Lmao
@@shinichikudoz that is the nature of a classic server! It's not like the current server is going anywhere so your not 'losing' anything.
@@jonzo99 the current server already have less ppl lol...we even have *dead hrs* thing 🤣
Очень ждем! Надеюсь про СНГ-регион не забудут и будет глобал релиз везде.
Let's gooo
When is bns coming to console…
Ждем, поиграли бы с другом на классике, с радостью.
It'll be nice if it releases on consoles
Are they releasing bns classic like blizzard did with wow? Bns pre awakening was the best game ever for me so i ll come back if your game has frames better ms and a better engine, cuz what you did with ue4 lets be real it was as trash as ue3 you only fixed the ms a little bit which is absurd nowadays to have such a bad optimized game. I run 80-100 fps in a node war in bdo with 300 ppl fighting eachother around and you cant even keep 40 with 12 ppl in a raid...
mobile or pc?
