Jiggle-sorceresses and loli's who hate pants? Yup, Korea has blessed us with another MMO. This time it's an ARPG as well!

If you've got a hankering for a Diablo-like, but don't want to play Path of Exile or Marvel Heroes 2015 because you want something NEW, then this just might be for you. Early access starts tomorrow, full free-to-play release on Thursday.

Trion, eh... so that's why you can't trade or whisper or use the AH until you purchased something to "prove you're human".

I can't seem to find any actual info about the game on that site. Where can I look up classes, skills, etc?

I liked the 2.5D parallax scrolling on the website.  First time I've seen that done with multiple Z levels.  The PVP Evolved section shows it off best.

(Hmm, looks like a plugin named Stellar.  That is a horrible name.  Search on stellar parallax scrolling, get articles on apparent star motion.)

But without some substantial information about the game, I'm just not interested.  So the web design is a net negative.  Unfortunately.  It just distracts me, makes me look at the map instead of the the landscape.

In the current MMO market, it's just too easy to hop between F2P games, seeing 30% of the content on each before moving on.  This makes it hard for a game to catch on.

Is this one already successful in Korea?  Maybe so, if they spent the money to localize the content.

The website comes in English, German, and French.  I wonder if the game content does.

I think targeting non-English languages (and non-Korean, obv) could be a way for a game to get some traction.  But I don't know.

Sorry for rambling.
