The page that initially announced the release date and founder’s packs became public for roughly 20 minutes before it was taken down, which was more than enough for players to save the page and spread the much anticipated news like wildfire. So far, the initial response of the MMORPG community in regards to the Founder’s Packs appears to be shock and disbelief. The article states that Early Access will only be the beginning of Bless Online’s Journey and that they plan to provide monthly updates that will change certain systems and introduce new content.
This announcement raises a lot of new questions and require further explanation. For example, in the $200 package, there is a perk called “Premium Customer Service”. Does this entail prioritized support tickets? Who knows?

the price for the 2 day head start is kinda bonkers 10 usd for 2 days early… bleh
2 days does seem sort’a pointless but the 10$ really is paying for the 30 days of premium membership
That brings up an even odder portion of this. if i buy the base game i dont get a months worth of time for it… what the heck?
the 30 days of membership is not required to play the game – simply buying the base at EA launch on the 30th will allow you to play Bless infinitely
the premium membership is to gain cosmetic and convenience items
see that is where i didnt catch on the membership is just for (premium) items… kinda hope they post whats gonna be in the shop before people get all butthurt about premium
I’m fine with the two lower tiers but the price of the CE….shouldn’t it be more like 6k Lumena? 😀 I was planning to buy the most expensive one, but it just lacks content for this price.
The $200 founders pack includes an additional copy of the game with the same benefits as the “Standard Edition” Founders pack.
Looks good and nothing really unexpected. I’ll be interested to find out what extras the premium sub offers.
premium membership is the “big deal” here that everyone (including me) is concerned
Not really happy to read “Premium Membership”. This game could die so quickly even just for this.
Good thing i decided not to buy games before i get to play test them, that’s how i avoided the no man sky disaster, unless they gona make it free with no pay 2 win model bless online and neowiz can go fk themselves before they see my money. Companies need to learn from digital extremes, warframe is 100% free and i love that game so much i throw 300$ monthly at it just because it’s that good. This game is just going to be another dead archage… it’s sad really, greedy companies kill games with massive potential just for a little extra cash at the beginning
charging people beyond 10$ for a F2P game like this is beyond unacceptable , they act like their game worth AAA pricing but in reality its just like any other Korean MMO .. except worse and badly optimized
Neowiz changed the 199.00 pack, to 149.00
