If combat is what I would need to do 90% of the time then I would not play that MMORPG. Also combat is not just combat, it matters in what context I do it. If it is just for fun, without any meaning, then I rather do it in an arcade type game than an MMORPG.

That being said, combat is important in MMORPGs, I just dont think it is the most important feature, by far.

If you just Google it you can find quite a few sites saying it is from the peeps who made Linage 2. 

Found this, "Blade & Soul is a new MMORPG by NCSoft. It was unveiled at NCSoft Media Day 2008. It will be developed by the team behind Lineage 2.", here: http://www.wegame.com/watch/Blade_Soul_Premiere_Trailer/

If anything it is for sure being developed by NCsoft, the same company responsible for Lineage 2 and the up coming Aion MMO.

Here's a really long, but good interview with some of the game's head developers:

The art style of the game is highly influenced by this guy, Hyung-tae Kim: http://www.hyung-taekim.org/

That's why the female character's tits are so big and their out fits so revealing.

Also the chief art designer, who apparently also worked on Lineage 2, wanted to go with a more adult feel and look to this new MMO. Hence some of the brutal fighting in the trailer as well.

Man, you make my head hurt...

Adult feel? This game, with scantly cled female models and excagurated violence, has teen/immature guy feel written all over it. Most adults would found those things ridicilous.

Which is why things like UFC fighting, which is watched by millions of adults every day, as well as movies and other TV shows, loaded with brutal violence/action and scantly clad women, sometimes even scenes with women completely nude, get high ratings and mad ticket sales all the time. And games also filled with scantly clad women, violence, and gore become million units or more best sellers???

Ya, people just hate that kind of stuff, especially adults......

i thank you for the links, you proved that the lineage 2 team is behind it. But when you say they are behind it in the title, i like to see some proof in the OP. Otherwise its just heresay. And i didnt say i looked for it, i said that i didnt see any evidence.

To say the team that originally made Lineage 2 is working on Blade and Soul is a flat out lie. The majority of the Original Lineage 2 Team are no longer working at NCSoft. 3 Years ago, while working on Lineage 3 as the Head Developer, Yong-Hyun Park (the Chief Producer, Team Leader, and Lead Programmer of Lineage 2) was pressured out of NCSoft. He was technically fired for "Lack of Leadership". Upon his firing, over 100 of his team members left NCSoft with him, this includes many of the head graphics, programming and design leaders as well. Those that stayed at NCSoft got more or less moved to Aion and other projects.

So maybe there are some members of the Lineage 2 team working on Blade and Soul but all the main people are no longer even at NCSoft. They now work at Blue Hole Studios working on TERA.

Then all the tones of sites I've found saying it's being made by the L2 team need to stop saying such things. I do know for sure the lead Art Design dude for Blade & Soul did have allot to do with Lineage 2 though.

Haven't seen much of Bleach myself, although I do like the series. I tend to gravitate twords more anime like, Evangelion, Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop, or Death Note.

I gotta hand it to you, it is hard to tell if it is all game play or not in that trailer. But I'm pretty sure that most of it is, but of coarse, that could be just my wishful thinking kicking in. The hit points rising from the characters as they take damage would suggest in game graphics, but the designers could of just added that in to make it look that way I suppose.

I know what you mean though, I remember back when PS2 first came out and there were all these trailers and screen shots in mags making the graphics for the games look ten times better then they really were. Thankfully it still turned out to be a fantastic system however.

Hopefully the Korean beta will start up here in a few months and some of us will get to try it out first hand. The Korean realease is planned for the end of the year, as far as I know.

However, NCsoft and Sony made a deal for NCsoft to make games exclusivly for the PS3. Many thought Blade and Soul was the first of these games coming from this deal, because of the game's jaw dropping graphics. But it's not, so far the game is just planned for a PC release. Although the designers have said they would love to do a PS3 port of the game in the future. So to me, if they feel it's worthy of porting to the PS3, then the in game's graphics would be pretty damn good. But, also, PS3 has gotten ports from lesser graphic consoles, like the 360, as well. So, again, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
