Read moreYeah it's got nothing to do with Neowiz... I'm not getting involved in a he/said she/said argument though as I rarely come on here I like speaking 'facts' good or bad which most people know I speak my mind.
BNEA needs to step up as the publisher and either work with round8 to get the console back up to glory days or just come out and say: "This isn't our focus any more" which is fine business is business. But the shadow games...and the zero communication is disgusting.
As soon as I found out Round8 and Neowiz was working on PC back in 2020 June I dropped console so hard you have no idea.
I do stay up to date with how things are progressing with the people that remain on Console and the stories are all the same. "Same people Luke" "Waited in queue for 45 minutes".
With all the dungeon changes that was implemented...my god. My fear now is they will introduce 'Keys' to open as many chests as you want in the Lum store 'p2w' that's the only thing my brain...
I see Round8 and BNEA is the good guys here, because I see Round8 doing good things and I believe you can't be a dev without having some passion for your work. BNEA is a 3rd party publisher in this setup, more of an intermediary, with Neowiz being the primary publisher that makes most of not all executive decisions that affect the direction of the game.
Sadly BNEA has no say when it comes to design decisions. I don't know if someone was asleep at the negotiating table, but BNEA definitely should have way more influence on the direction of the game than it actually does.
From my perspective Neowiz is the publisher and carries the most responsibility for success or failure across all platforms
