The Guildmasters

Hi all,
Yes we decided to open up a forum, after a year of blogging it makes sense, especially with so much being posted about one game.

The forum will be easier to access and to keep an eye on your previous posts, much more user friendly and we hope you will find it fresh, interesting and a great place to hang out and get info on games coming out soon.

Also take requests for games your looking for to discuss wether they are out already or just a rumor.

We have also set up a WKC 2 thread ready for when the game hits internationally, this could be a while but hopefully by the time it does come out we will be going into that game with a fair amount of people who know each other.

Well pop over and check it out and let us know what you think, introduce yourself or get involved in a discussion, we are especially looking for players to put their name in the WKC 2 thread ready for when the game comes out. Better to start a game with friends and people you already know don’t you think?

I know a lot of people are finding my blog via WKC searches on google and such so I wanted to use this post to mention to newcomers that if your looking for some good info on WKC 2 please check out the topic ‘WKC servers getting worse’.

Not in the ideal category but we have been discussing in different places on the blog WKC 2 whenever we find something new and if you check the above mentioned topic you will find some really cool links to some really cool info about WKC 2 posted by George (Genmei).

In case your having trouble finding it here is the link to the topic:

I would like to thank George for posting these links and would also like to thank Death for updating my logs at WKC. Thanks guys:)

P.S. A Big CONGRATULATIONS !!! George on reaching GR 11

Well we all love it when someone likes to talk because that’s how we find out stuff.

Apparently WKC 2 is being released in Japan next month and with it comes some more confirmations about the game.

First of all the second installment of the White Knight Chronicles will come with the first version also, this is in case some people skipped the first one then wouldn’t want to play the second one, now you can have both, at least in the Japanese version.

Although this sounds like a good idea the first version will be updated to be as good as the second version, this means there will be tweaks and added extra’s.

You will be able to play the second one carrying on from the first one but you may miss out on some extra quests and gear if you don’t play the first version that comes with WKC 2, I’m not really sure if I could play WKC 1 again up to GR 15 just to get access to a few extra quests, it would have to be more than that and even then i’m not sure I would do it.

Another thing it seems it will introduce an ‘ark’ which is like your own knight which will be able to be used online but will be limited, also you will be able to customize your ‘arc’ which will be pretty cool, sounds like you will have to visit a particular place in order to customize the ‘arc’.

One other thing is that they have introduced the possibility of using up to six players per quest instead of the usual four which again sounds cool and also gives an indication that the quests are going to get that much harder meaning we will probably have to work together more efficiently to produce completed quests instead of failed quests, sounds good.

Remember nothing is set in stone and this is only for the Japanese version so there could be more changes by the time WKC 2 hits the international market.

Here’s hoping it won’t take too long to be released to the rest of us, i’m guessing it could be as early as Christmas, that would be nice.

Yes I haven’t been giving my blog the attention it deserves. This game is so addictive. I’m almost at Guild Rank 12 and I say almost because i’ve still got 3 million GR points to get, this sounds like a huge amount but it can be done in a day because i’m getting many more GR points per quest now.

The playability of this game is ridiculous, really. I’ve had this game well over 3 months and it just doesn’t get boring, you get to the next Guild Rank level and you just can’t wait to get to the one after that.

I love RPG’s as you know, I played Resident Evil 5 until I got burned out on it, i’ve played final fantasy games over and oblivion was a great RPG and although White Knight Chronicles isn’t as good as those games from a storyline point of view this game has been put together in such a way you just can’t leave it alone.

It’s only recently I realized how much work had gone into the making of this game. It’s definitely a MMORPG because without others you would find it quite impossible to complete many of the quests. They’ve also made it so you can’t just go for the best weapons in the game, you have to buy the cheaper weapons in order to bind them with other weapons or materials to make better weapons.

There is always something you need to get a better weapon or a better piece of armor and that one thing your missing is the one thing that is a 1% drop rate, then when you do get it you get loads of them, or you’ll find when you get what you want you’ll need a ton more to upgrade.

So yes even though there are reviews out there stating this game has only 20hrs playtime they are almost definitely referring to the story part. I would say up to this point I must have played well over 300 hrs and i’m only just going to hit Guild Rank 12 tomorrow. Guild Rank 13 is when I can upgrade my town again so that is miles away.

I’ve had a lot of late nights with this game, I certainly haven’t put these kind of hours into any other game i’ve ever played. Last night I got onto the map to start questing and two new quests opened up so the makers are keeping to their word about introducing more quests on a regular basis, this also helps to keep the game fresh, and it just so happens the two quests they put in was giving items I really needed which was cool.

I did enter a quest with a Guild Rank 15 member and I asked her if at Guild Rank 15 was she still having fun.
Her answer to me was “are you kidding? the fun has only just started”.
That’s all I needed to hear, i’m having a lot of fun now, even after 3 months of playing, imagine how much more fun it will be to own everything in the game, best weapons, best armor and i’ll probably get it all just as WKC 2 comes out, that will be awesome.

The only downside with this game is that I have neglected other really good games that I should have been playing and writing about. Having said that games like this only come by once in a while so enjoy them while you can is my motto and i’m really enjoying this one. I just can’t put my finger on what it is that keeps me on it so long, it’s a mixture of how everything is tied in, so well balanced and a great load of decent players who really team up and help each other out. Great stuff.
