There's so much that they could add that could potentially be better (both in terms of access and balance) than what Neo Tokyo offers. If I were a Nexon writer I would be pitching so many ideas for Terra Forest expansions that faces would melt, and I'd be hard pressed to believe that at least one of their writers is just as interested in the idea as I am. The fact that it's accessible through Leafre alone gives me hope that it will eventually be expanded upon as a high level area. It wasn't just shoved into the back corner of Ellinia or something like it could have been.
That's nice and i agree with you, but that doesn't really change the fact that they are not only more interested in creating new classes but at the same time are uninterested in expanding this s'hit town. Regardless of the "potential" it has.
BombsAway Wrote:The money they could have made would only be made from idiots buying AP resets. Nexon Korea isn't really a branch that shakes down their players as much as Nexon America does, and that's why it was of little concern to them. There's very little they can do with any area that is going to invigorate people to SPEND SPEND SPEND. I know that if I were given the JMS Neo Tokyo pre-requesites for getting in, then I would never go. Both of their options are completely retarded. It would've been way to risky to make an area that is only accessible through MONTHS OF HARD WORK or paying real money for no real pay off like Neo Tokyo provides.
If only they realized that you DON'T need to spend s'hit loads of money to survive the place. No one cares that there isn't even any decent training spots. The main attraction is obviously the BOSSES. The only problem is that the bosses all have some form of attack (touch or otherwise) that can "OHKO MOST CHARACTERS OH GOD". I GOT AN IDEA LET'S THROW ALL STRATEGY OUT THE WINDOW AND NOT FIND A WAY TO AVOID IT. Don't have the skill to avoid it? Yeah sure, spend money on something people are INCLINED to do in the first place! Does that give nexon any reason to finally have morals and say "NO WE SHOULDN'T FORCE KIDS TO SPEND MONEY ON OUR COMPANY" when doing that PISSES OFF EVERYONE WHO CAN ACTUALLY USE THE AREA?
BombsAway Wrote:You're letting your feelings about how cool you think Neo Tokyo would be get in the way of obvious objectivity.
You're right, but that doesn't calm me down. Also, that isn't the reason i want neo tokyo at all. I couldn't care less about how "HOLY S'HIT BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF ROBOTS IN A FUTURISTIC TOWN? SOUNDS BADASS." it is.

BombsAway Wrote:Nexon Korea doesn't want to keep creating areas that only small portions of players can experience without being frustrated to hell. Even if the areas aren't the best, at least they're still usable. Neo Tokyo is horribly unbalanced and difficult to use, especially for archers. That wouldn't be a fair update, especially if they are considering expanding it. That would just create more areas that are inaccessible to the ranged.
Ranged classes navigate neo tokyo JUST FINE.
