Throne And Liberty Review: Still A Long Way To Go

Both NCSoft and Amazon have already proven that they’re willing to put in the work to make this game better. Combat overhauls, skill system overhauls, performance overhauls: Throne and Liberty has really gone through the works over the past year.

You can also combine it with a ranged weapon like the Longbow to have a versatile DPS charac Throne and Liberty 's morphing mechanic has a similar problem. Per the lore, certain individuals (mostly the player characters) have the ability to transform into various animals. At the beginning of the game, these are a wolf, an otter, and a hawk, and different species may be unlocked later. Again, this is a lot of fun in concept, but each morph really only amounts to a simple traversal ability - wolves for sprinting, otters for swimming, hawks for gliding. The other animals you unlock at higher levels do improve traversal incrementally, but basically only amount to cosmetic differen The upgrading, or 'enchanting' system as the game likes to call it, requires various materials each time an item is upgraded.

But the live service game has seemingly matured over the past few months. The developer is clearly listening to its community - player numbers have almost doubled in South Korea since the game’s lukewarm reception way back in December 2023. Almost a year later and it’s seen many new additions that will arrive in the form of a launch update, including a streamlined leveling process, new lifestyle paths (fishing and cooking, yes please), as well as a new 3v3 Arena among other chan Amazon’s track record with MMOs is solid, but also undermined by problems. Both New World and Lost Ark had huge launches with over a million players on day one. New World is of course getting revamped later this year with New World: Aeternum tied into a console release, but its performance on PC has been lacklustre for months. Current player numbers have it hovering around the 5,000 mark. Lost Ark is much healthier, with around 20,000 active players.

Overall, it’s difficult to give a score for Throne and Liberty based on what I’ve seen so far. I’ve been a bit too quick in the past to judge MMOs based on their leveling experience, where the real game begins when you’ve already invested dozens - potentially hundreds - of hours into the game. As it stands though, I can say that this is a game that I’m excited to play.

So what is the standard Throne & Liberty experie These will naturally be a pressing question for anyone who might want to try out Throne and Liberty. ‘Pay-to-win’ is a term often thrown about by players, and it’s probably a term used frequently in Amazon’s head offices, too. Pay-to-win is a spectrum . You could place Diablo Immortal very high on the pay-to-win scale, whereas a game like League of Legends has plenty of microtransactions but no pay-to-win elements at all.

As for the game itself, one of the things that most interested me was the class system. Rather than a standard build of 'Rogue' or 'Warrior' or 'Mage', every character dual wields. You can choose to make this consistent (my preview character was an all magic build of Wand and Staff), or mix and match, pairing Dagger with Staff, Crossbow with Greatsword, Sword and Shield with Longbow, or any combination thereof. This makes playing the game more varied, and offers greater flexibility when approaching dungeons. As far as Amazon and NCSoft are concerned, it might be their ace in the h However, Throne & Liberty is not really a new game coming out. Though Summer Game Fest was the first time it could be played in the West, the game has been out in Korea since 2023, and maybe some more concrete lessons have been learned there. Amazon is keen to stress that while the West is getting the game later, it's not getting a different game, but the same as the Korean one, made with a "global audience in mi The Dagger is also an effective solo-target DPS weapon due to the focus it has on Crit Hit chance stats.

"Massive scale, everything about it, the world, the buildings, everything. And the tech being built is going to allow things like the castle sieges that have thousands of players participating in a castle siege. That's not an exaggeration, that's already something that has been seen in the Korean life service is thousands of players participating in this castle siege. That's probably the biggest event that we have. And then there'll be other things that have hundreds of players, going down even to guild vs guild battles, which will be more along the 50 v 50, 60. v 60 type of range. Scale is a big part of what we expect in Throne & Liberty, particularly when it comes to PvP battl I told the duo that I had requested Wand and Staff for my own playthrough at the behest of one of TheGamer's resident MMO expert, and they laughed - clearly, the team behind Throne & Liberty is aware of the importance of the mage class to MMO history, and the natural curiosity players will have for it here when magic usage is far more flexi At Summer Game Fest earlier this month I played two of Amazon's MMOs, New World: Aeternum and Throne & Liberty , having previously dabbled in their other MMO Lost Ark , while the company has also announced, cancelled, and re-announced anew a Lord of the Rings MMO.

With this knowledge, you'll find yourself utilizing the item enchanting system often as there is little risk in putting upgrade materials into the wrong items.

I did appreciate that some bosses didn't pull punches when it came to difficulty, but those were rare bright spots in a mostly disorganized system . Classes aren't divided into clear roles; you choose of your own accord whether you're a tank, DPS, or healer before queueing in. While coordinated party synergies occasionally arise by accident, most dungeons just involve large groups of players ganging up on single enemies at a time, then repeatedly dying to a boss until someone accidentally discovers the right mecha Amazon’s track record with MMOs is solid, but also undermined by problems.

"The changes that have taken place in Korea are this summation, if you will, of feedback from our beta tests, and from their live version," he says. "And so as we put it in front of global players, we're getting strong feedback from them.
