This is my big hangup as well.
I love me some anime visuals and all that (TALES GAMES TALES GAMES TALES GAMES TALES GAMES), but for some reason the people in Blade and Soul look kinda sweaty and greasy and just...Odd. It's a little odd and sometimes downright nightmarish to look at. That, and I don't like the way that they executed their overworld design either.
The animations also look rather stiff and don't flow well to me. I'll still probably try it anyway because I really like the concept of the game that they're making, but I'm still firmly more excited for Black Desert at the moment.
I cna handle the excessive shine and gloss. But their cutesy race weirds me out. ...same reason I couldn't go near Tera. It feels like the game is trying too hard to have it's own aesthetics that it's hurting the design of things. ...and I'm still bitter about Aion. Crysis engine. In an MMO. I turned my laptop into a space heater for that game. :-:
