They went on and elaborated further on this stating that it’s akin to a relationship system, with different users triggering different quests and events with the same NPC. Yup – NPCs will be roaming around, no longer being traditional static quest givers, instead, NPCs are going to be “part of the ecosystem,” and like enemies, will adapt and react to how players interact with them. But with smarter enemy AI comes smarter NPC AI.īlade & Soul 2 won’t have NPCs just standing there hanging out waiting for you to complete quests, instead, they’re going to be out exploring the world themselves. It’s a weird feature they’re claiming they’re implementing. but NCSoft are claiming it’ll offer a brand new combat experience and require you adapt to monsters adapting to you adapting to their adaptations of….
I don’t know really what they mean when they say that enemies will react smarter. Supposedly, enemies will react according to individual player actions, as opposed to repeatedly meleeing you and using a skill whenever it comes out of cooldown. The sequel takes place after the events of the original game in a future where the characters that fought alongside you in Blade & Soul have all become legends.īlade & Soul 2 will introduce an entirely new cast of characters to aid you in your journey, along with altered areas affected by the difference in time, along with expanding into areas that aren’t found in the PC game.Īdditional details were announced for the sequel, including smarter AI for enemies. If you ever played Blade & Soul for PC you’d know how poorly optimized that game was for the first few years of its life and how poorly optimized the game still is even after their supposed fixes. NCSoft went on to detail that the game will look even better than Blade & Soul on PC, have even faster, even higher quality, more “stylized” combat, and work on optimization. Unlike any of the other Blade & Soul mobile titles, Blade & Soul 2 is a direct, official sequel to the PC iteration of the game.
However, with the recent focus shift towards Lineage 2M my guess is that Blade & Soul 2 is most definitely on the back burner. They’re churned out at a significantly faster rate than a PC game – and by that logic both of the aforementioned games should be well into development by this point, which I’m honestly sure they are. I’m aware NCSoft were working on both games at the time, and I’m well aware of your typical mobile games development cycle. Blade & Soul 2 and Aion 2 were both announced back at G-Star 2018 – well over a year ago.
