Question about the combat gameplay

Will it be a dynamic and funny gameplay like Black Desert Online or a boring gameplay like World of Warcraft ?

    For the MMO, there will be action/twitch skills/combat, and tab targeting skills/combat.

    We can extrapolate from Apoc gameplay, but it would just be speculation at this point; Apoc only showcases action/twitch combat. Apoc may only ever be action/twitch based... The MMO will have both...

    @LonelyPirate They made a whole testing ground to get combat right that later became a game (tho still used for testing purposes) called Ashes of Creation Apocalypse. What you see in apocalypse is 100% action based while MMORPG combat will be hybrid (both tab and action). For more info you can just check the link Wandering posted.

    BDO combat was dull, I found it neither dynamic nor funny to spam the same combo over and over.

    Have you tried striker? He is really fun to play. (Would have to agree with every other class though)

    Same. Too flash as well.

    It was better, I went back to try the game again just for that class. I felt it was a step in the right direction but I still got tired of it after a while.

    I also thought the Musa wasn’t as bad as some others but still didn’t really dig it.

    I don’t fault people that like it. But it sure as hell isn’t some pinnacle of combat that should be aspired to.
