nothing is neatly sidestepped there. there's a shit storm a comin'.
unbelievable the comments in the igg forum- so many users saying "we shouldn't worry about this, we should just enjoy the game"... er, no?!
it's like limbo of the lost all over again, only with users defending it. it's all so golden. i just don't understand how these people think they can get away with this.

I've seen so many screenshots that look like bad fanart of people standing around in Prontera using Ragnarokish emotes, with the same interface.

I was thinking games like Secret of the Solstice.

A good number of quests sound familiar.. Sure, I know, all quests are essentially the same, but one chain in aurora blade is:
- A man was stung by a "king scorpion", go to "guard jim" for help.
- Guard jim tells you to get 10 scorpion tales for the antidote.
- the wounded man asks you to go kill the "king scorpion" to get revenge and prevent further attacks.
sounds a lot like in the Orc and Troll starting zone.
or, in "pipo city" of aurora blade, the first 3 quests are to collect hooves, lion claws, and bird beaks from the animals near the city, and then you get a quest after those 3 to blow a horn at a specific spot to summon and kill a unique lion. I wonder if "pipo city" has barrens chat too.

Also, compare the logo's of aurora blade and warhammer: age of reckoning, particularly in the lettering-
