ESO's easier to the eyes than BDO.
First time I played BDO, I was overwhelmed by the amount of UI and things shown in my screen. I also felt more lost in BDO, found it too confusing (probably also because of the UI). BDO's combat is so fluid though. Much more fluid than that of ESO's.
I love BDO's combat, movement, and complexity(love and hate really). On the other hand, I love ESO's interface, simplicity, lore, and world.
Its simple, if you like The Elder Scrolls Series you have to buy ESO. If you like grinding till you land in a hospital, than get BDO.
If you want non-interactive instances and lack of cultural diverse cities, play ESO. If you want true open world and cultural diverse cities, play BDO.
HAHAHAHA!! love this comment XD
ESO has some crazy grind, too.
@@spookish4167 Nop, there is not. Veteran player here. All the gear remain relevant.
@@animeweng Is kinda the other way around. Bdo doesn't have its own indentity, perphaps for the lack of lore? There is the capital of the elves, wood or high elfs, nords, khajiits, orcs. Idk what hell you're talking about. There is cultural divesity... Bdo questing is laughing and the lore too. Non-interactive instances, hahahaha. Sure, all the dungeons get an background story, and you can read it, do quests with multiple choices with consequencies.
Well, my English is very bad but I realized something, however. This is the only great comparison on TH-cam, good job dude and thank you!)
P. S. Honestly, I haven't decided yet cuz iam more of free pvp content, but the Elder Scrolls lore is just perfect =)
Outstanding video :) for me it is ESO all day long but I am a huge elder scrolls fan so it was never even a option for me to try BDO.
Michael Coffey - welcome to the channel and thank you for commenting. I don't know much about BDO lore, usually just click thru menus and look for the shiny on the map somewhere (>.>) in contracts, I have friends who are or were skyrim addicts; I got a hefty dose of the ESO lore when I started playing it. Good gaming to you!
Awesome video dude! Only thing lacking is a better mic\voice audio, but other than that, WELL MADE VIDEO! You have my sub (:
Thank you, Liam! Very glad you liked the video. I had tried to even the audio out, but yea I need to get a better Mic. Was still using $20 headphones to record this one.
Thank you, Liam. I did get a better headset mic the week after I put this video up. Much better voice audio quality now. Thanks for the sub and be sure to check back in the future.
Thank you very much for this, new sub here!
Hello Carlos and welcome to the channel! I'm pleased you enjoyed the video and I plan to make more like this in the future.
which one has the most beneficial player crafted items? Can you sell the crafted items you make, and how marketable are they in each game, is basically what I'm asking.
"You can have it in Bdo" Lmaooo. Subscribed for that humor
Lavish - thank you for the sub and welcome to the channel!
I hate waiting while traveling, grinding all day was just killing me... is like the game has control over you rather than you controlling the way you want to play, for that a lot more things i prefered ESO 100%, also i just tried PvP in ESO and you need skills, gear and lvl is not enough.
4:11 DUDEEEE!!! I use the SAME cursor :D
you're literally the only person i ever seen using this beside me.
Woo! Great minds amiright? ;-)
in my opinion, combat style of TESO is bad.. Only thing that BDO wins.. But, that is a huge thing.
Vinicius Colen
- Thank you for your feedback. I agree that BDO's combat system, does slightly (and I mean like 52%/48%) out strips ESO combat system in terms of "ooh, shiny' visual effects and keeping your brain engaged. Its very important if combat is what you want in a game, for sure. Good gaming and happy hunting out there!
Yeah, combat is amazing. TESO combat is so boring.
Why does this only have a few views and likes?
lol my thought exactly after watching it
Originaly this review has 1,2 billion views. This one is copied version. If i am wrong, then idk why the hell it has only 4k views -)
Not bad for Self imposed homework, but thanks to that I know that I wouldn't like BDO even half as much as ESO. There are a lot of points that sway my opinion, mainly the customization ability/unlockablity as well as the convenience points like the bank having your loot no matter where you go and having you mount easily summoned to you vs having to keep track of the last place you saw that mount. I am absolutely horrible at misplacing my mounts. ^_^' I do have to thank you for posting this, it saved me some time and money, I was actually thinking about trying it out, but now I know that I wouldn't play if even if I bought it.
You are most welcome, glad to be of service.
Thanks for posting.
Absolutely, Madmike730. Glad you liked it!
You got a new sub sir :)
Thanks and Welcome to the channel Curstin!
I know BDO has a lot of flaws but I love the way they made sidequests feel worthwhile. They feel super rewarding
Hello Lancelot Knight - you're correct, BDO does many things to make the experience seem worthwhile. The amount of daily quests you can complete in BDO is massive and I believe the Devs. were going for constant re-play-ability. Happy Adventuring to you!
Nice video you got a new sub
002 best girl
Havent played either. Gonna go with BDO today.
the costume in bdo is way too expensive....and it is one of the biggest selling point..
I feel ESO's mission is more interesting.
How BDO devs make money. They are working on 3 separate games now. I buy the costumes from the central market not from the pearl cash shop.
19:35 oohh my gosh haha good one
Deciding wich one I will play on Xclud, since I don't have the hardware to run it lol!!
Okay I know ESO is like a Dungeons & Dragons game but what is BDO? is that also a Dungeons & Dragons just like World of Warcraft or
What about dungeons and raids?
Speaking from a non Biased perspective there was things not mentioned an really only thing. The creator was trying to say each game offers a different experience an BDO is hardcore so it attracts the serious players like me. ESO is immersive an really touches base with making PVE worth it. BDO touches higher in PVP. ESO rewards it's players better an more quickly due to it being user friendly. An BDO is like mentioned earned an grinded for.
If BDO had better endgame and less p2w (lets be honest here) it would be the supreme mmorpg for years to come. But pvp is unfair and there not much else to do combat wise. PVE is noting more than mindless grinding
Oh and BDO adds new classes often and is more content positive. ESO is good at it, but nobody does it quite as well as BDO.
I think I’ll try ESO first. Very well made video!! Have you played final fantasy online any?
Hello Linus - thank you for the comment. Glad you enjoyed the video also. The games have both changed somewhat since I posted that in 2018, but glad I could help you decide which one to try first. Happy gaming to you :-)
And no, I haven't yet played FF Online

Hello and welcome to the channel. that's a nice detailed breakdown, thanks for taking the time to post it!
ESO is not a 10 in lore, are you mad
@@fr0ntend Holy fuck thank you. I lost count of how many times I went residentsleeper listening to npcs and skipping dialogue.
@@mohammadshibli8163 Mas ai não é a Lore que é ruim, é você que não quis aproveita-la...
The grind with bdo is ok for me cuz the gameplay is so fun
Honestly, BDO is the more thought out game. ESO is what I play because I have a family. BDO was an awesome experience though and I know I'll be tempted to try it when it comes to Xbox. Also the combat is fun to the point you don't even care that you're grinding because every battle is just awesome. High level wizard is OP, but gets boring in BDO FYI.
ImalTman - thank you for the comments and welcome to the channel. I agree that BDO (kakao) adds more character and combat mechanics quicker than ESO does. In contracts, ESO (bethesda) puts out huge story arcs maybe once every 1-2 years. Both games get updates and add content, but BDO adds more new-player-focused content, like characters and map locations to explore; ESO puts out lore/story with new missions. I've not seen a new map region in ESO (but I could have missed one). Good gaming to you!
I disagree. BDO has great combat, but ESO did has a much better thought out game when it comes to exploration.
@@senormusica81Gaming How could you not know that Morrowind was released last year, as well as Summerset. Those are huge region expansions, modes and a new class in ESO. Newer regions are also constantly added through the regular DLC updates. BDO had to release characters quicker, because it released with less class variation than many of it's competitors. ESO has far more content to engage in the world when it comes to dungeons, caves, and land variation in general. "BDO adds more new-player-focused content". ??? HUH? ESO has tons of more co-op player involved content on a regular bases through added DLC and in the game's mechanics in general. BDO doesn't have classes that gain benefits from others. Each is an individual powerhouse. That's not a bad thing, but to say BDO is more new-player specific is crazy.
How could BDO be more thought out, when ESO has a far better end game experience IMO? Tons of different types of dungeons, instanced and non instanced, tied into a pvp continent and dlc is far better thought out to me. In ESO you'll get various new dyes, find crafting blueprints at random, chests with hard to find items, lore books, books that upgrade, items found through theft in hidden areas, treasure maps, skyshards amd Mundu stones that enhance your character greatly, simply from finding a waterfall, cave, or wandering into the world...None of these things exist in BDO. BDO has a deep system with it's professions and trade, but the beautiful world needs more than trash mobs for amazing combos at every turn. The node, npc, and questing mechanic is amazing, but ESO still has it beaten in spades in many other areas...In my opinion of course.
@@LurnWell Hello and welcome to the channel! There's two other comments you left that I need to respond to as well, so I won't go into much detail on this first one; just that I've explored much in both games, I don't have any complaints on the exploration for either title.
The video was Awsome. But, you forgot to mention one important key note. What i believe would be the ultimate determining factor in deciding between these two. BDO does not have PvE centric content. Sure, there are outdoor bosses. But these bosses are extremely difficult to kill and more often then not require an exaggerated amount of time to kill. ESO has a more PvE oriented style of content. You have Dungeons, Raids, and massive PvP battle’s in a controlled zone and environment. BDO pvp’s is so unbalanced, unless you’re a masochist, you will NEVER grind enough to be as competitive as the next guy. IMO, its up to the what the player is looking for as far as endgame that determines which of these two to play. Which game will reward the time contribution more adequately.
Hello Eddie, thank you for the astute comments and observations. You are correct that (at current time) BDO is more PvP oriented and ESO is more PvE oriented (for the sheer amount of PvE challenges you can do). Only after making this video did I ever try world bosses in BDO and PvP in ESO. agree 100% that world bosses in BDO require an enormous time commitment, and the patience of the ancients to complete. Even in huge groups, it takes upwards of 20min to kill one boss. I haven't done PvP in BDO yet. I will say that PvP in ESO is pretty balanced, it all about that character build. My main ESO character is a healer so I didn't fare so well attempting PvP. Good adventuring to you!
senormusica81 Gaming I really have no idea why kakao gaming won’t put PvE dungeons and raids into BDO. As it stands graphically, combat wise, and world integration, BDO is a far more superior mmo. But the lack of PvE content, and truly unbalanced PvP (the core of its existence) makes it so that progression in BDO is very very limited. The day they add a raid and a couple of dungeons, the severs will explode.
Eddie Lockhart agreed, the whole system will melt if they do that
@@eddielockhart7768 The balance will falter if they added a dungeon, please think again. If you implement a raid/dungeon place that place will be crowded with too many peoplw hence the grinding places will be empty. Now what I say about balance is that if you make the dungeon "more" profitable than your repetitive grinding then you'll know what will happen right? Then how about we balance the money income in dungeons? That may be impossible after all no one will do the dungeons after a month or so if it's just the same as grinding. Also that place will be a massive pvp-scaled place if you put alot of people there so no. Also to clarify, bdo doesn't fit with having a dungeon but if you say about enemy raids, PA has added some few monsters that needs groups to kill.
i think i'll get both . but i'll get eso first . bdo seems a bit more complicated
Abhik Biswas - thank you very much for the feedback. yes, I agree BDO is more complicated and in different ways than ESO. I wish you good gaming!
ESO is better IMO :) but Black Desert is affordable to get into though, Although you can do more for the price with eso :)
Eh, BDO isn't more affordable to get into. It's very pricey. Been playing for a while now and doing high end content is great, but there's a saying that "the game price is 10 euros, but to play the game you gotta pay 100" this is due to pets and weight limit items are so mandatory to have. Same with outfits as they give an XP buff.
Can someone just make a 5 minute video telling us which is better. Thank u. Sike
Well, you can trade an weapon or armor you got within 1h30 from the end of the dungeon (with the current members of the party). You're kinda wrong, @
senormusica81 Gaming. I'm saying really dungeons, not delves (a gear set from an delve is normally tradeable, >.>) Gear set from trials, p.e, are treadeble within the party within 1h 30 min. You can't sell trial sets or dungeons sets, but you can exchange between members.
I will stick with ESO.
While I wouldn`t call it casual, the game has more player friendly desing choices as of 2018 and onwards.
Moreover, the world seems much more interesting, at least when it comes to visuals. Take the Ebonhearth Pact territory for instance. You`ve got Aztec-like culture of lizard-folk in murky swamps, Norse-like culture of the freezing north and pure fantasy of Morrowind with giant fungus towers :D
oh and on a funnier note...FIRST!!!
ha! yes you are +1
Very well done video buddy.
For a person well-versed into TES lore this video hurts a lot
ESO vs. BDO 2020...Let's talk about it
Eso still batter but play after 6 years you get tired of it
Eso
which is more social? i want to talk to people
Both are very social, they have user marketplaces, global, regional, local text chats, and voice chat.
eso way more social
To the people wanting to try BDO, Im telling you right now.. Play it if you want to waste time and progress through RNG. If you take this game seriously it'll burn you out and eventually make you regret on spending time in this game. I don't recommend the game but I'm telling you, if you want to waste time.. BDO is for you..
p.s ESO is much better imo but combat sucks, bdo wins at combat.
sounds perfect to me hahahaha
^ This, 100%. ESO is better than BDO in every single way, except combat (and character creation). BDO has the best combat I've even seen in an MMO game, but it's almost like all the resources went there.
I played both ESO and BDO, for me, ESO is more user friendly than BDO. BDO user interfaces tends to float out with unnecessary
announcement making the screen too crowded, a white ring circled around the character, node management, unshareable storage while ESO has simple user interface but maybe too simple, but can be backed with many addons, flexible class system, non gender locked
class, fun questing that make u care what happen to that certain area, some not really important choices.
Reistoph Milkayr
- thank you for the feedback. Yes, I agree BDO has So Much happening on-screen at any point, its dizzying to get used to. Good gaming to you, and thanks for watching!
Here cuz I got bored of eso. Started playing bdo mobile. Not convinced to start grinding on my console. I mainly have my character set to auto on my phone
A deal-breaker for me is that I belive ESO has dungeons and BDO doesn't! For me, the dungeon crawl is almost what it's all about.
I hear ya, for me also, sometimes, its all about that dungeon crawling.
I want a game where you dungeon crawl from lvl 1 to max lol, forget fetch quests, let me run dungeons with randoms all day long.
Looks like BDO has a better combat system but ESO has first person option which makes up for that…
I try to start teso twice, and i couldnt play it. Animation of charecters are too ugly for me. In BDO when u run, u feel the speed of ur character, when u hit, u feel the power of ur hit. Also it looks beautifull. In Teso my character was like a doll: plastic, ugly animation and etc.
I could say better in russian, but not many of u speak it.
thank you, Эльвин Гасанов, for your comment. I agree that ESO does not look or sound as 'serious'. the visual and audio effects in BDO are designed with more "the mental experience" in mind, and careful attention was given to how much affect, the in-game effects have on players. with the new black desert online: remastered update, the visuals got even better, in my experience.
You said that perfectly in English. Thanks for your brief review.
ESO has open mic
Why mmo has to use crowded UI? Shit.
ESO ftw
I am Spanish so I have understood little of the video, I bought both of them so I am a nerd like you :(
good luck fellow nerd :-D
If world of War craft comes to console its GGWP
BLACK DESERT MOBIL it's better you dont need to pay to win its optional specially in PvP, it just take 4 times longer to level up and you dont get the cool outfits but it's free to kick ass online hehehe lol its indeed the best mmo in Mobil
Giuseppe Jay Gambino
- there's a BDO Mobil?!!! Thank you, I didn't know that. that's good if you don't have to spend 1,000,000,000 silver to get good gear, but the trade off is time, it would seem. Good gaming to you and thanks for stopping by!
Okehhhhh now I really want to play BDO *lesigh* Y U NO Cross Platform yet BDO?!?
Thank you Sami for your comment and feedback. Glad to hear the video helped you want to play BDO. Perhaps one day all games will cross-plat, but it is not, sadly, today. Good gaming and best of luck out there!
Hey Sami - wanted to let you know that BDO came to XBox !
Good video but a lot of ESO lore inaccuracies
I choose wow classic
Lol gee I wonder why you left out eso pvp. Because any noob can play pvp in bdo. You better have the right gear and skill set to even stand a chance in cyrodil
Skinny to DAMNNNN! lol
i also love gabriel iglesias
Gabriel is the MAN!
Eso should simply hire the bdo fight mechanics devs.
And dont be stingy on adult content baffles me still that is an issue in most games violence galore but oh no a nipple lmao.
That's a really great idea and I commend that concept! And yeah, blood spatter, death howls, but oh no, not nipples 🤣
do you want content ? you get it from eso XD
Facts. The amount of new content every year is immense. I can't name a single mmorpg that provides more content on a yearly bases...and you get a huge new region every 4-6 months.
I vote elder scrolls v skyrim best game ever.
Finalmente um homem de cultura refinada
this guy did not get far at all in BDO, i played the game for thousands of hours, was in one of the top pvp guilds, made billions of silver, and let me tell you, the game is not bad at all, but the developers dont care, they add stuff to the game that no one wants, things that will ruin the game for someone, like when they changed the cc in the game so you could only be cc twice in a row, no one wanted that, everyone complained, they still added it, and let me not talk about the value pack, or about the valks, or about the mem frags or about the selling costumes for silver...sorry, the game is not worth it, im begging you not to waste your time on BDO, you will only end disappointed :/
Hello Reynaldo Lazaro - thank you for the comment! Correct, at no point in the video did I claim to have gotten very far in BDO story-wise. I was focusing on what I had learned about both games from a compare/contrast standpoint in a 'nuts and bolts' rundown. still to this day, I haven't done PvP and my highest character in BDO is lvl 55 and the grind is insane. Good adventuring out there!
@@senormusica81Gaming well, i got 3 lvl 60s and 1 level 61, trust me, you should never recommend bdo :(
@@reyflp 3 lvl 60s and 1 lvl 61! wow, that's a massive commitment of time and energy. thanks so much again for commenting! having someone who's been to end game leave comments is awesome!
Thank god I found this comment, I can't explain it more than you.. Im 100% agree to what you said, Ive been playing the game since the SEA CBT's, I came from BDO SEA and played since beta and I'm telling you, to the people that wanting to try BDO, Please for the love of god, stop it as soon as posible, I have 2 lv 60 alts and my main is 63, i just quitted the game a month ago and OH GOD ESO is much better, its just the combat is different, BDO on the other hand is much better when it comes in COMBAT but oh boi, I dont even know how to start to state the flaws of that game.. I know the game is immersive and the best lookking MMO atm, but mechanic wise, monetizing system and the cash shop.. its bad, its waste of time, the progress is dependent on your RNG, people dont actually play the game they all do AFK stuff.. it feels more like a singleplayer game more than MMO, PVP is awesome but thats it, the end game is PVP, and its even lacking PVP Content, they have BR mode but meh, its unbalanced and ppl can hack on those modes and just grind resouruces for them to use on the MMO mode, Pearl Abyss is not even trying to hide their micro transactions and p2w, and dude its bad.. its very fcking bad, I dont have the game but if you cant handle failure to the point that you want to kill someone irl then dont play the game... My point is, ESO is treating me well for the last 3 months and its more of an MMO than BDO,.. BDO grind is insane and its not even worth it coz other giuld could just abuse bugs and p2w and you're just useless in PVP..
sorry for my bad english, thats all I can share.
@@senormusica81Gaming I can support what he says, I did invested the same amount of hours but I think I spent more, but people that reach that end game usually quit because the real end game is just a massive poll of players p2w'ng just to reach a certain AP, and it shouldn't be like that, there should be other gears to reach them or to make builds on those gears but meh, the BiS in this game is locked on this boss gears that are too easy to get but, to upgrade it to even reach softcap, hyou gotta atleast spend some $$$ for it. Im telling you, this aint liek a troll statement, its fcking real. thats why people quitting the game and migrating to ESO. please dont recommend BDO. Please.
I feel like ESO is boring after you hit max level
I love Elder Scrolls, but this MMO is not in Spanish and black desert yes, therefore I can get much better in history. The Korean game is translated into Spanish and not the American ...
Eso terá uma tradução em Espanhol esse ano em Junho, recomendo jogar, a lore é muito foda e as histórias são incríveis
i quit eso at max level cp 810 V maelstrom completed. The lack of additional skill lines is killing the gme for me, and the skills just look unappealing to me. i can mindlessly enjoy bdo just because it looks pretty. In Eso the ugliness is just to prevalent.
Eso is ugly ?
Yeah. I played both game, but eso is much better than bdo. Because bdo is too boring. But eso is boring and not fun at first, but this game is strangely if I more play this game, the more interesting it is. So I really recommend eso.
Very good callout, Mike. I've felt the same way, ESO is more a slow starter, picking up more the longer your in it, but BDO just grinds after the first few hours.
ESO all the way! Just started playing. Im so tired of getting fucked over by BDO and all its shady stuff. The RNG ENCHANTING is killing me.
M W - BDO enchanting and fail stacking...*shudders* I didn't want actual homework with a game, so I didn't try to cover it in the video. I agree, it can be very RNG F.U. trying to get buffed up gear in BDO. Both games have parts I enjoy and parts I would rather pass on. Good gaming, and thank you for stopping by!
@@senormusica81Gaming This is how you talk to your community. I wish many subscribers to you. Well, you got one more now 👍
FUCK IM SO CONFUSED... IM LOOKİNG FOR A MMO GAME TO PLAY BUT FUCK.. IDKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK IM JUST GONNA REFUND ESO NOW
In other words, bdo is the worse game by far. (all the thing considered)
Except combat. Which is huge.
I played both. I liked both. Sadly I'm heavy pvp driven and the lack of open world pvp in ESO eventually got me bored. Also I live far from both servers and have to cope with 220ms ping. ESO feesl so clunky and rubber banding with that ping where BDO feels way smoother and I doubt I"ve ever experienced rubber banding apart from a dc. I've never found Cyrodil on ESO and it feels like they hide pvp. In BDO I find myself 1vs1 arena practice for hours at times with guild mates. The combat is far superior on BDO and probably because I play a Sorc the combat is so mold-able and you have to adapt to your opponents playstyle. The open world without teleportation is a personal preference for exploring .ESO is just as beautiful but after one play through I barely revisited a place. ESO feels much closer to a single player quest rpg game where BDO feels like a mmorpg... This is all personal opinions. I am sad that I could'nt get into ESO that much because it is definately one of the top MMORPG's of all time. Also I believe the future for ESO is much better than for BDO simply because of the publishers/ developers and in the west people tend to prefer non pvp - sadly.
-Story, questing, PVE goes to ESO
-PVP, Combat, roleplaying, open immersive world goes to BDO
Sadly I also found a guild and social interaction to be much better in BDO. In ESO all other players are like npc's and I doubt I've ever spoken to anyone. This obviously depends if you find a guild quickly. I found a guild in BDO very fast from my country and obviously being in discord really makes the game so much fun than to solo it so ESO could probably be the same if you have a guild
this is a fantastic comment, very detailed and thought out. I agree that ESO probably has a better future based on the developer support alone. Thank you for sharing, AcrosBlio!
No problem. senormusica81 Gaming. Remember this is a personal opinion and also as mentioned 220ms ping plays a heavy roll with the stability in combat. GW2 actually handled the ping better than both games however after 2x level 80 characters I did not understand what the point of playing was due to the lack of open world pvp. Unfortunately for BDO Korean /Chinese mmorpgs never last very long in the West and we can all agree GW2 and ESO has probably the best developers / publishers and that alone give reason to play them.
@@bloodwolf9428 Yeah the ping kind of sucks. But esos combat is great imo. If you know how to animation cancel it wont feel clunky at all. You can 1v1 in eso at houses set up tournaments etc. Ik pvp is limited to cyrodiil and battlegrounds but honestly I love cyrodiil one massive pvp area.
BDO is low rate item drop farming game
ESO is crafting and fashion game
what i dont like from BDO is fail stack, expensive items = too much grind, no trade, no freedom pricing on the market, always need us to kill too much enemy to progress like in ESO we need to kill 10 is actual 10 enemies not kill 1000 to get random drop to progress the quest.
BDO only good in graphics, combat, and life skill, other than that i hate everything from BDO
better story better pvp dungeon system eso is way better than bdo
ESO has pvp? 0_o.. yeah sadly I never found that. I miss open world pvp. I miss the thrill of integrated pvp where you must always be ready to get attacked during every activity you do. The organized pvp in GW2 and ESO just couldn't hook me for long enough. I'll gladly swap PVE and dungeons and quests for open world pvp
Isn't all that available if you do the quests and delves in Cyrodiil??
I don't really know. Never found Cyrodill. Sadly this is what is lacking with most mmorpg's. there is no immersion between pvp and pve. I really don't want to teleport or run some place to do pvp. I want to do my thing. A idiot come interrupt me then I kill him. Then he will come back and jump me again and we fight. Even if they only have a pvp server. BDO is pvp and Ieven go to the main PVP server just because the thrill is even better without any consequences. Anyway I guess I'm in the minority. People in the west dislikes pvp and prefer pve and dungeons
BDO combat is so good
Eso's graphics are just so ugly.....it looks like it's running on a color blind PS3.....
Can you say that after the console enchanced update?
get reshade and some graphic mods and it will feel like one of the best lookin game ever, the geometry of all the buildings and stuff are so gorgeous, good models, i can understand that armors sucks but how can people say it's ugly.....
Lol
how can a game look that bad and be 79GB big? wtf
BDO is just Bad, don't bother
Let me fix this video for you.
GW2 is the better of those mmos you mentioned.
The end.
strongly disagree
Well the game may as well be on its last legs now. Game is no longer relevant.
BDO has better character creation, it actually has a story structure that you don't need to watch an hour long video or spend an hour reading a guide to find a direction.
ESO is the worst elder scrolls game I've played and probably the worst MMO I've played..
BDO isn't much better either.
