Thrud Officially Launches August 17th: Players Prepare for Drama

Thrud has finally confirmed its official release date: August 17th. Players jokingly noted that at least they won't have to endure a fifth closed beta test. Regarding the gameplay, some users suggest that removing the Z-axis combat mechanics is a positive change, as it reduces 3D motion sickness for mobile gamers.

However, the community sentiment is far from optimistic. Many observers are ready to 'eat the melon' (a Chinese slang term for watching drama unfold), predicting that the game will be ripe with controversy. Players pointed out that the August release window is extremely crowded with titles like 'Calabiyau,' 'Blue Archive,' and 'Aether Gazer' (referred to here as Millennium Journey), suggesting that if Thrud didn't launch by late summer, it would miss the window entirely.

The comment section is harsh: some critique the game's title as 'incomprehensible' and unappealing, while others cynically refer to the launch date as the 'death date' for the project. There are even concerns that it might perform worse than recent competitors. It seems the game is already being written off as a commercial failure by the vocal online community before it even launches.
