To be honest I'm pretty skeptical about trying out RO2 in its current condition (no WoE yet). There are no where enough contents available on kRO2 (and iRO2) that'll really keep the players such as myself interested in the game.
I'll wait until April 26 (this is when WoE is implemented on kRO2) to see how WoE is like on RO2 before deciding on whether to play this game or not.

If you go into RO2 expecting or hoping to see RO1 in 3D, you're probably going to be disappointed. Aside from reusing some monsters and imagining the future of the world from the Ragnarok manwha, there isn't much relation. Most disappointing is the lack of variation in gameplay due to equipment/card choices.

What RO2 -is- is a fairly generic MMORPG. I suppose when people label it as a WoW-clone, it's justified, but I don't think that's a bad thing. "Clones" are made because a model works. "Imitation is the sincerest [form] of flattery."
I've played many such clones, and I like RO2 better than most of them. The grind is very light, I don't feel forced to compete with everyone else on the server with daily events just to keep up, and I don't have to be locked into the game for 6+ hours to get something done. It's a pretty, simple, and functional game that suits a casual player like me.

RO1 and RO2 are completely different flavors.

It's been several years since I played RO. I'm hoping to revisit this for a little nostalgia.

Really interested in RO2 as a 7 year player of the original starting in 2003. Best MMO I've ever played to be honest, just going to miss being a career/main Alchemist with an Assassin for hunting and a Wizard for dungeon parties. The feels, oh the feels!!

I know this game won't quite live up to the original RO, but I'm older now and so is the genre. It'll be fun no doubt! Hope to make some friends and meet some competition. WoE was a big deal for me, loved playing on my Creator and using plants and unique builds to raise a little hell in those castles :heh:

See you all in iRO2!

I helped Beta-test RO2's SEA release, and yes. It' a fairly generic MMORPG, but I wouldn't say it's a WoW clone by any means. Everyone compares things to WoW these days, it's sad. WoW was not the first MMO on the web contrary to popular belief, and it's by no means the best, either. People tend to forget that EverQuest came long before and hardly gets the credit or recognition it deserves. (Granted yes, compared to MMO's these days, the graphics are terrible, but the game engine itself was amazing for it's time and was certainly the best of it's kind. The game itself has amazing potential, but I don't think Sony wants to expend the resources, time, or money to update/upgrade or improve it.)

Anyway, not gonna go on a WoW rant. : ) All in all, RO2 was worth playing, even without the WoE aspect implemented yet. I'm not a huge PvPer. I have slow reflexes which make me dreadful at it, and people get WAY too cutthroat/competitive. They tend to forget that they're playing a GAME. PvP "elitists" get WAY too serious and hardcore and it takes the fun out of it when a game is too PvP-friendly or reliant on PvP as a main source of entertainment and play value. RO2 is NOT that type of game, and for that I'm extremely glad. I'm also very please that the game isn't party-reliant either. I myself tend to prefer soloing. When games force you to party up to 'raid' or run dungeon instances in order to advance, it takes the fun out of it as well. I want to be able to have a choice, and I like hunting by myself for the most part. RO2 gives you that option of being able to max out even by soloing by yourself and it's a wonderful feature. I am SO looking forward to this release, and seeing you all in game!

THIS. This post has all my feels.

Btw, WoE for RO2 is in the same style as RO1, except with strategic points like in WoE2.0 and of course, in 3D. Anyone who is in a guild can warp to the castle maps by talking to an NPC. So sadly the castles aren't a open world feature, but you still have access to check them out at any time. Oh, and there are special rewards for owning the castles and a special hidden dungeon in each!
