Thoughts on Arcane Reborn compared to AO

[AwesomeOS]

well its accessory has 500 defense

arcane odyssey is gonna fucking rail deepwoken so hard let’s be real

deepwoken is eh I guess but I mean from the leaks we’ve seen from AO, this might be one of the greatest games simply ever created on the platform

only things like eat sand simulator can contest against it

[dogs]

theyre 2 high quality games from different genres and the only systems they both jave work drastically differently in both, theu arent comparable dont start this argument for the 28374372th time

im ngl i’ve always disliked this take, Yes, they are different games , HOWEVER the thing that people who say this don’t understand is that their targeted audience is practically the same. As long as two games have even remotely similar targeted audiences, they will have a push-end-pull effects on eachother, take YBA and AUT (both boring jojo games), they are not similar at all, yet when AUT released its total rework, YBA straight up dipped in player count by like 70% when it released just because got fans from the other game to switch to check it out. Now if two completely different games that parody the same thing manage to affect eachother that much, what do you think when two Successors (one as a sequel, one as a remake) are competing. Pretty obvious that AO will kill AR, even if AR magically drops the 4th sea in the exact same day. Now this is all short term, but this also affects long term. Tell my, why would people, when getting a taste of (most likely a better game idk I’m not the tester here ) switch to a much more inferior game besides one most likely having more content at the time (idk how much content AO has so I’m assuming less than all 3 seas). Doesn’t make sense to me unless vetex decides to make the game have painfully slow updates, in which people will prob switch to AR temporarily, then most likely get bored of AR, especially the people who already beat the game. The only people who would really linger around are as I’ve said before, the die-hard “Fuck vetex” people and the people who still think that grinding AR 12 hours a day will turn up some profit when AR will “eventually pop-off”, so even in the long run AR will definently take a large amount of damage.

so tl;dr: the claim that “two games are different so they wont have an effect on eachother” is one of the , most stupid-brain claim that i’ve ever seen, AO will kill AR

sums up my argument fairly well

sandal i swear bro.

[knuz]

ao isnt even out yet so i’d rather review ar just based on its own merits and nothing else

that being said; arcane reborn is not fun

[Misinput]

unlike everyone in this god forsaken thread, i dont think ar will die
it has a playerbase of active players that will keep the game alive. (these are your 1000 hour 2 lw weapon kids)
game will lose its popularity with the casual audience like it did before 1.1, just due to it being too much of a sweatfest late game. ao will get those players (most were wom players anyways)
doesnt help when the devs are too busy sweating pvp rather than fixing bugs (my god please do not wipe me when i run dungeon)

i suspect theyre somewhat similar, but they do have their big differences. i think this just comes down to ar magic casting just feeling dramatically slower than what ao will be, and grinding being much worse
again, these are assumptions, im not a tester for either of these games

[Shellseawing]

I thought you were a tester for AO. guess not.

[DubiousLittleTyp0]

arcane reborn is definitely going to die

or at the very least become some weird niche closed off community with way too much gatekeeping

[Shellseawing]

it won’t die. just all the new players will move to AO.
Old players will stay with AR

[DubiousLittleTyp0]

like I said, at the very least become some weird heavily gatekeeped community

it’s in a way already like that and it’s probably gonna get worse when AO comes

[Shellseawing]

Yes. The OG’s want to stay true to AA by playing AR which wasn’t made by vetex instead of playing AO which is made by vetex.

[DubiousLittleTyp0]

pfft lol

[AwesomeOS]

Allow me to show you ar late 1.0 but pre 1.1

The time period where 1.1 release date was confirmed but not out yet so the game only had 60 players
