Black Desert Online
« on: 04 February, 2016, 05:05:33 PM »

Dear all,

I'm not getting the time I'd like to play games anymore, largely because work is taking over my life. You get single and suddenly work moves in like a nasty bastard and gobbles up that free time. Bah!

I've been looking for a game that caters for a casual like me and may even, shock horror, provide a good forum for a bit of roleplay. I've been checking out videos and info on Black Desert Online and am surprised that people haven't given it a look. It's a sandbox, huge world, end game is largely crafting and pvp (including guild versus guild). It does have PvE and by all account is a bit grindy, but by gosh it looks good.

Anyways, I think I might preorder it. It's launched on March 3rd, in case you're wondering. If anyone else is playing it, then please let me know. It seems perfect for a dip in dip out player like me. Oh, how I wish I had the time to raid! Anyways, hope you are all well and good.

Gont.

I might give it a go purely for a pve and watching the scenery experience. Its just 30 euro's and then free to play right?

The pvp looks very Korean, gear based to the insane..

Going out to capture my own horse sounds like fun though!

So I pre-ordered and had a look at the name reservation. You HAVE to pick a family name. Which will be shown everywhere? That is kinda annoying.. And I don't know of any nice family name I want all my characters to have...

Puz/Nayna ...

Arf

Edit: For the time being I picked Darwin, you can change the name later. But tbh, what would fit all the different toons anyway?

I preordered and, like the sap I am, went for the expensive version. Kinda figured that I'd use the money I would have spent taking the ex out on Valentine's day lol. Free game in my mind. Family name - Morranza. Reserved char name Gont. Excellent. I shall be in the earliest wave of the soft launch, but we all know how slow I am to level anyways...

Decided to change my family to Gont. And my reserve character name to, well, Gont. It worked. Puz, you could be family name Puz, char name Puz and then have Nayna Puz as an alt. Simples >.<

I was considering that. How does the name appear ingame anyway? Proper lastname or more like a second guildtag?

Like a guild tag if memory serves. Also, your family name is how your guild will know you I believe. Hence changing mine to Gont. It doesn't matter what alt you are on, they will see you by the FN.
