What precautions after watching this will you take in order to prevent this on the console release. 

So as what do you the BDO community think about it especially veteran players. 

I haven't seen the whole video but im gonna take a wild guess and say its about the gap between vets and newbies and the core mechanics of the game.

Assuming im right about the gap, id say we got nothing to worry about! We are getting a fresh start, which is one of the reasons im waiting for the release.

Now, About the basic mechanics of the game (aka grinding and end game). i'd say that its part of what Black Desert is, A sandbox mmorpg (think runescape) and what people are most farmiliar with are themepark mmorpgs (wow etc). The game has major emphasis on life skilling and you could spend hundrads of gameplay without doing any real combat and actually make better economic prograss than monster grinders, which I think is fantastic.

Regarding instances and end game.. We all know that PVP and gearing is end game in bdo, and tbh im okay with not having instances. The game is extremely immersive and im really enjoying that. Having an instance matching dungeon or raid will mess that up.. 

Basically im biased cause I love the game, Some people dont and thats the nature of people. we're all different.

Isn't that being kinda short-sighted tho? I mean for any game to survive long term, there needs to be a way for new players to join and not be level locked due to existing players.

This video is not so much about the "gap between old and new"...it's more describing people that try the game cuz it looks pretty and cuz others are playing it. These players have done no research and have no clue about the game mechanics so they quit after the easy part. I say good riddance... (sorry, is that being short-sighted? lol)

Players also quit because the enhancing system is brutally unforgiving and disheartening. If they fix that, they will keep more new players.

The enchanting system is not bad they need to keep it how it is If they fix that it would be to easy to get yo gear to Tri,TeT, or Pen the only hard part about enchanting is trying to enchant boss gear or trying to get yo armor from +14 to +15 but once you get it there getting to Pri and Duo is easy it's just Tri and up that's hard and also enchanting earring,rings,necklace, and belts can be pretty tilting since you loose them both if you fail....

No people are just babies and want easy gear. People will leave because of the grind because in order to enhance you have to grind the silver. 

This game has the possibility to be a lot of peoples dream game. Some want things changed a little, some wants it changed a lot. I want them to do what's best for the game. I don't really care if a small portion leaves if it means a bigger portion joins. The game isn't being made to not be successful.

That being said no matter what happens I'm buying the game because I'm bored asf with what's out.

If you look at the biggest MMOs in history it is ALWAYS a hardcore game at it's core if you want to be the best but still has many things for casuals to do

I agree until it comes to accesories and mem frags. I should have probably been more specific. If getting mems was a bit easier, or restored more than 1, and accessories didn't blow up after one fail then I'm on board. I like that it's hard to get pen. I want it that way. What I don't like is a month of silver disappearing after one bad rng roll.
