Nexon

Who here plays Dragon Nest?

I've heard a lot of Basilers talk about it. A couple of people at my school plays it. Who here plays it?
I don't play it, but I am thinking about moving from Vindictus to Dragon Nest. Do you think I should?

If you're a warrior then probably yes. But you are so way off. The person above explained it.

[quote=magisjay]Dragon Nest is pay to win IMO. Buy Jellies, sell on market> profit. Or buy 100k gold for 10 dollars from gold bots. That's pretty much a month of non-stop grinding all for ten dollars. Honestly, Nexon turns every game pay-to-win. Except Vindictus, but I haven't played it that much. I quit shortly after OBT.[/quote]

Not really, it's easy to make money if you know what you are doing.

It eventually gets more and more boring but you just can't stop playing it.

[quote=theifboyb105]You forgot loading screens. There seems to be loading everywhere which can get in the way. This is the first game I've experienced so many loading screens since Dead Rising 2. Games like Tera only takes 1 loading screen and that's it unless you teleport.[/quote]

Not unless you have a strong bandwidth. It's fairly fast in my opinion.

Actually Dragon Nest is pretty easy to make money in my perception. I have near end tier armor, from just leveling up from 1 to 50. So money isn't a problem and not much of a P2W

But if you want a list of cons and pros here you go;

Pros;
-Top Notch PvP system
-Seemingly balanced classes ( Rock Paper Scizors )
-Individual training grounds
-Semi-Stable Economy
-Unique play styles in every classes
-Easy to level up
-Content updates are great
-Graphical
-Not as NX based
-Market Place
-[b]PERMANENT NX GEARS[/b]
-In approval stamps can be found in game
-Combo System

Cons;
-PvP is hard in the beginning
-Not as populated
-Gold Bots
-Slow updates in Korea
-Item enhancements are pretty costly
-Not much customization
-[b]Voice mods are horrible[/b]
-Dungeons and Nest can get annoying
-Gender Locked Characters

What are you talking about.
Almost online game is pay to win.
You want to show off and lots of items. Pay.
Wanna have the highest possible whatever. Pay.
Show you basically beat everthing. Pay.

Even Vindictus. If you wanna make money and craft the best armour and weapons in town and be max lvl on all characters with maxed skills and stats. Pay.

Dragon Nest, Vindictus, C9 other stuff.
Pretty much same stuff.
Except Dragon Nest is much more colourful and less violent looking.

Dragon Nest is basically a Vindictus with cutesier graphics.
From personal experience, Vindictus is somewhat better, I suggest you stay at Vindictus, but if you're really interested in DN, then play it.

It's fun, but I can't stand the dungeon stuff. It's so weird.
