Thread 'New Action Adventure Game by Nexon (Woochi The Way Farer)'

Yesterday at 6:50 PM

"Nexon's new action game set in the Joseon era has been identified as "Woochi the Wayfarer," a title based on the classic novel Chŏn Uch'i chŏn.
"Woochi the Wayfarer" is an action-adventure game in which players become Jeon Woo-chi, the Taoist wizard who stars in the Korean classic, and explore a grim world teeming with supernatural beings. The subtitle "Wayfarer" means "a traveler on foot," hinting at a storyline that follows Jeon Woo-chi as he roams the world.
The project is widely presumed to be Nexon Games' PC-and-console, open-world action RPG codenamed...

I'm always down for some Korean woochi coochie.

Basically, Korean witcher.

 

[Techno_Inked]

Love the setting but unfortunately still just cg. I'll be on the lookout though.

 

[Zarak]

Looks interesting but will it be souls-like number 560.

 

[Arsic]

Ah another Wu/Wo/Wi/Wa like game.

And by "burned by" you mean "never played"?

 

[Valonquar]

Asian mythos souls-likes are getting into the Marvel fatigue neighborhood now.

 

[pqueue]

why is it so many characters in asian games are constantly moving/twitching like they have Parkinson's disease. Why can they never be smooth or controlled.

it is like they are made to be spastic to appeal to zero attention caffeine and cocaine addled idiots.

that and the constant idiotic child laughter.

And by "burned by" you mean "never played"?

No I mean I've played all of these piles of shit and dropped it because this website hypes them up and I'm a fucking retard who buys into it.

Wu Kong dropped final chapter.
Wo Long maybe 3ish bosses left?
Wu Chang only completed all of Act 1.

But thanks for assuming.

Do companies really think CGI teaser trailers mean something?

Gameplay and release date or kindly fuck off.

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Gonna be all up in the koochy as I'm playing that Woochi



Need more than a CG trailer to get excited, let's see what happens.

 

[DragonNCM]

Cant they fucking make games without "WU,WO" in their names ?

 

[Humdinger]

There's a lot of visual spectacle in that trailer, but it makes me wonder if it's all visual flash and no substance. Hard to say.

 

[El Muerto]

Sooo another souls like from Asia?

 

[Neolombax]

Cant they fucking make games without "WU,WO" in their names ?

There's Genshin Impact, Zenless Zone Zero, Lost Soul Aside, Where Winds Meet, and Phantom Blade 0 too ya know.

It's amazing how in gaming so many studios make the same kind of shit. And they wonder why some games crash and burn and dont sell.

Nexon has been a bit...behind, when it comes to industry changes. Like 10-ish years behind.

I'm just glad they finally reached a point where they are diving into non-MMO high budget projects. The Finals was a bit shaky with keeping it's audience, but Dave the Diver, Khazan, and Arc Raiders have been good standouts and found their fans.

It was a good pivot to make, because they could have easily become yet another MMO publisher who either slowly faded into obscurity or slowly faded into mobile-only titles.

I can't disagree with your sentiment overall. I'm just tired of nothing CGI trailers lol. Show us some of that "pre-alpha gameplay footage."

(I'm old and snarky, especially during a work week. Don't mind me. I'm bitter like that haha)

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

It's described as an RPG.

So more like Korean Witcher

We-You... you can't say it though, or Nintendo will sue you.
