The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Jericho]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
Training System
Upsides
You get a lot of different skills/spells to train on any
class you choose and your equipment does make a difference to your
character.
Downsides
You can and you will screw your character at first (this may be fixed
with the help of a guardian, mind you they don't do this often),
and once you get the hang of the system you may have no more trouble
again.
Low population.
Upside
You get to meet most of the players after playing enough time.
Downside
Personal troubles with one player leads to a whole domino effect by
other of this players friends even if you had nothing to do
with them. This also makes others players be biased to what their
friends tell them about you.
Bosses
Upside
The game has huge bosses with higher rewards (the best equipment)
that needs teams of players to take them down.
Downside
You need to go on this to be added to a group, which at start will be
difficult due to your character being unable to be useful when
compared to higher leveled players. Players may choose to leave you
for personal reasons. Bosses are limited to a handful and there can
only be one group at a time tackling them.
World Size
Upsides
You have enough areas to explore and train for a while. And
every area in the game has something to do with the game plot.
Downside
On any busy day you might have trouble training due to areas
being crowded. You may explore this game completely in a matter of
hours (once you have a fairly complete group).
New Content
New content is added on every update. Being a game held by just the
game creator. Updates may come in one day or in a few months, usually
the latter.
Gold
Gold can be somewhat difficult to obtain (unless you go on bosses
raids) and you need 500k gold per level after level 100.
Classes Balance
This game is nowhere near a classes balanced game. It's pretty
difficult to balance classes specially due to the difference in skills
and spells.
Player Issues
Players usually mock new players sometimes depending on popularity.
Foreigners to English may have a hard time trying to communicate
since players bash imperfect English.
Admins in this game are all players except the game creator who
doesn't play at all. This causes the admins to sometimes make biased
decisions which only favor themselves, sometimes with unwritten
rules being instantly applied.
Groups' loot system consist of the leader spreading the items which
is sometimes unfair.
My Personal Opinion
This game has a great system. The skill/spell system is amazing and
the equipment adding makes it wonderful. The game's major flaws can
be fixed but they do need work. The game creator needs to more
actively work on the game and work on current and new content. The
game balance needs to be looked at. The players' attitude needs to be
analyzed and perhaps add new rules to alter this behavior. The loot
system needs to be changed.
Overall this is a fun game, but you may get bored after a while.
