In the end, I can say that Blade & Soul is a very well done RPG game, but I can’t push it for a real MMO. Until there’s an element of choice in your direction, a huge portion of inter-dependency in groups, and a push in the MMO scene to actually make a game where socialising is a part of the entire experience rather than just dungeon farming, then I can’t rate it highly without pause.

By far the most fun that you can have alongside FFXIV these days, cheap Blade & Soul gold has an absolutely engaging battle system that keeps you plugging along the set path, upgrading as you go to reach level cap. There’s very little end game content at the moment either, other than grinding the big four dungeons for gear upgrades, doing dailies and playing PvP. If that’s your thing though, you can’t go wrong by downloading the game and testing the waters. At the minute, Blade & Soul could benefit from some extra side content, such as housing and pet collecting, but there’s none of this to be found. Hopefully NCSoft are willing to drop some time into it and see where things go from there.ngfhj1234
