Fantasy MMORPG Blade and Soul gets a remaster, immediately torn apart on Steam

Martial arts seem like a perfect fit for the RPG genre. Still, aside from classics like Shenmue and Jade Empire or newer games like Wandering Sword, there aren't as many projects that fit this description as might be expected. Blade and Soul, an MMORPG from 2012, looked to fill this gap with an online kung-fu role-playing game presented in the style of wuxia books, TV, and film. Unfortunately, players looking to check it out in the form of its newly launched remaster, Blade and Soul Neo, seem massively disappointed so far, if Steam's user ratings are any indication.
