No. Game's dead.

Hey GMs/anyone in charge/within a job description here.

Couldn't careless tbh.... but as it stands now the game is dead and needs some refreshing

And I basically thought I'd post this here for anyone in charge might wanna do something about it? Like, you know, run more events more often, invent new events - etc etc. Make it welcoming to new players, give them freebies IE trophies, newbie armors, scrolls etc and shiat to assist them on their way through.
Hell, you should even consider advertising the game heavily via social websites, etc.

And just a thought, to get pvps and things going, which is all this game about, give players the motivation, eg., I'd like to see a PA-like arena with a fee entrance or just generally let the players to choose/bet any sum of crones and fight for.

This arena scenario would be something like this, if you're going to consider it GMs.

It would be open and available at any given time of the day/night.
Participating in this arena players need to group into parties.
Said parties could bet as much crones as they'd like and fight therein, and ultimately the party with the most points/pk points get the lots.

They could run events 24/7 but when people aren't playing anymore because blunt mastery is so broken it ruins pvp, and they made forge/refine rates so bad you can't even gear anymore, I really doubt the extra events would do much to revitalize the game.

Wow no way! When did you realize that?


The only way people would start considering to play it again if another company takes over the game, as that is not going to happen...

Isen got off to a pretty good start on a glimmer of hope templars might be balanced, but unfortunately its just Jin 2.0. If they actually fixed blunt mastery they'd have plenty of people willing to give it another go.

I was done when they changed the spirit stones etc.

I don't mind to pay for a game, or hence a monthly subscription for that matter - I've payed it for other mmo's so that's not the issue.
The issue is when you have to spend 30-40 dollars / month to be just 'able' to play - and that's without counting in the extra's. I mean, lol, which genius came up with the idea to sell spirit stones for $'s, make it a core gameplay (i.e.: a must have item to actually play the game) and give them a fail-rate besides? Do you really think I throw 15-20 $ just to receive nothing in return? If I wanted to play the lottery, I'd just play that instead.

Mind you, the ROI of that is probably higher as well.
+1 for creativity, I'd say.


That, and I suppose I just generally grew bored of the endless grind, but that's another matter. Not like I've really logged in for anything else but chatter for the past couple of years, anyway.

New players check Exchange Market weapon prices ..... and WTF!!!! 500-990$ for Wepon, 120-300$ for 1 Ring (U need 2-4), and they quit game after hit lvl30 cuz it's sht. Isen is same as Ran (in long term playing).
More Event's will not help this game. When dudes in charge don't care about their community. It's not only Broken Blunt Mastery..

Item mall prices too big , reinforcement rates too low, now even forging rate is so bad, grinding takes too long if u start from lvl 1( it should be like ppl should get to lvl 90 in couple days soloing and then can exp on standart rates), still waiting for skill balance... and yes game need more ppl to play it but first u need to fix the game.All the crap u selling for ppl is annoying like u make available walters +7 or u selling upg parts or epics , it makes those items special which u cant get anymore unless u buy from ppl who have them and new ppl who start the game do not want to spend xxxx dollars on 1 item so they just quit the game, so maybe sell such items on regular basis and every1 can get them sooner or later if they keep playing.

This always confused me about Isen, because I hated craft weapons. I thought they were cool when they first made chimeras since they were more useful for farming then pvp...but then they kept making buffer craft weapons and buffing the stones...so I started to hate them more and more. The fact that craft weapons would be the primary weapons in Isen had me turned off from the start.

That's a Ran problem with the weapons. There's always various glacial/serpent split weapons for sale on Jin for like 1500 rps or less. 5-15 bucks isn't too bad. Isen weapons are dirt cheap but your gonna end up paying for spirit stones.

And rings...I wouldn't expect a noob to be buying +12-18 feathers right from the start. Depending what server, what stats, and on your luck, you can get a set of twins for probably 5-15 bucks. Or you could buy some artisan rings or insurgents...those pop up fairly cheap from time.

Yeah you won't be pro but for a noob to get a sense of the game, and at least be good enough to grind it'll work.

Only thing that really sucks is they made the rates so much worse then they used to be, that if you want to make your own stuff instead of buying someone's leftovers your going to fail so much you'll rage quit.

I know. I gave it a last chance myself, but once I saw those chimera accs I figured it was pretty much the old story.


The fact they were like "oh we will fix it give back crones", meant nothing to me, why would anyone even release new server if everything is not thoroughly planned and examined (esp since this was their last chance of redemption), if they couldn't recognize what was wrong with accs themselves but had to wait for players to tell them like always, means they still have no idea about the game they run, and it took them like 1 month to fix that? Lol.

The fact that the items in the game, that give you the purpose of logging and farming such as armor and weapons became useless...like wtf ??? They say "oh but you have power arena and you can buy free stones", cmon PA is most boring thing I ever saw in this game, and the fact you gotta log on certain time for something that requires no skill, or team play is just a no.

The fact that the last thing 'cuz of some people were playing i.e. boss pvps, made boss drops useless compared to chimera accs, and with some speculations how they will fix the boss drops but till then we will all prolly get to Patient's age.

The fact that the staff is still incompetent (with exception to Atzigan who seems to be really trying, but 1 man can't do it all) and can't solve smth so easy as item reimbursement and that people still have to make threads in order to get their **** fixed by Atzigan.



I don't understand why people keep spamming treads constantly hoping for smth, if they haven't fulfilled our expectations all these years they won't now, no matter how many threads people spam. Not even a blunt mastery fix will bring people back, don't fool yourself. There is far too many things that are wrong with this game.
