It's Korean.

I have no words to describe what i just saw............. Thus cant be true......... This game looks better than any current ( sry GW2 ) and upcoming MMOs combined..................

Looks we might get sanbox game we are waiting and not some On rails, quest grinder with tab targeting and 1+2+3 spam (Archeage)

Like how you can make ''westen'' (medieval) looking char or ''asian'' inspired ones. Blends two worlds perfectly. Also we need Rhino mount !!!

Steparu information added to the OP.

"Players will be able to adventure by solo play, party playing, field raids, normal raids, raid dungeons, chasing, defense kind of games, siege warfare, guild vs guild, and a lot of cool other features."

"Housing system"

Its also action combat but it is also playable in first person like an FPS, so you have 3rd person action combat and first person FPS style action combat.

It's pretty, but looks a bit too good to be true. With the world being as detailed as it is, I bet it'll be mostly a themepark with some sandbox features thrown in. Could be a great game, but I'm not excited yet.

Since Black Desert Online is a semi-sandbox MMORPG looks like developers think like this. If u read the interview looks like there will be alot of sanbox features.

It's a LOD mess, but I expect sweeping views like that won't be present during gameplay, so that's OK I guess.

However, the proportions and sensible architecture is what really gets me about this game, it's just so perfect, especially compared to other MMO games that can't get that right.

Aesthetically, that's what matters FAR MORE than number of shaders on screen (GW2) or texture resolutions, when going for a realistic approach.

 I'm sure that will all be ironed out, I mean, it's still in Alpha, a closed beta isn't expected until June.

This was what I was thinking.... Western mmorpgs have been so bad as of late, maybe we'll get some creativity out of this keorean indie.

i'd suspect US release in 2016 when graphics will be behind the times instead of ahead of them.... i really need to move to korea:P

Classic Asian MMO showcase.

Stunning visual

Huge world

Same fighting animations like the rest of the Asian MMOs

No ugly women

Hot women in sexy armour

I bet many weapons are HUGEMUNGUNS in size

Very little to do beside grind mobs

Ohh did I forget....Legolas,Gandalf and Alistar was present in the showcase.

Who knows they might do something worth playing this time.

And no I don't believe the feature list until I see it ingame.

Heh, ye.. when the mage was swinging the staff, I was waiting for him to smash it into the ground and yell "YOU SHALL NOT PASS".

Also the walking trees, last march of the ents.

Definitly drew inspiration from LOTRO.. Not a bad thing though.

They had plenty of other stuff in there as well, like Olaf! xD

I missed Alistair though, but I'm a bit tired.
