Free2Play MMORPG with CashShop system // This game's graphic is really good, and character animation is great too. Character design and armor design also help making the characters adorable. Players can also form guilds and engage in major Town Battles for each town's ownerships. The guild that takes control of the town can set tax that other players have to pay when they use NPC services in the said town.
There are also some mini games that could yield players some easy cash. One of them is Fishing. After acquiring a fish pole and some equipments to be used as baits, head to the pond and start fishing. If you know how it works and have some luck, along with some starting funds for investments, this could be very rewarding. One type of fish is required to form a guild (best to sell to players!). Other fish would reward you with potions, junks, or equipments. Instead of selling dropped equipments with bad stat bonus, or items for other classes, use them as bait instead and you could get better items, or items for your class, and with better bonus in the same item level range.
Items, even low level, with good stat bonus are desired by many players who want to combine a few pieces for better armors with better bonus. To make a high level combine armor set, usually it takes many armors of lower ranks. ... Though the success rate is quite low.
But the game, at least for NA server, is left quite empty.
One thing is because of the grind. This game gets grindy very fast. And players are forced to, again, spend real cash on scrolls that would double experience gained for a period of time. The Cashshop also provides items that make a character really strong, to the point people say it's overpowered. This game has open PK system. Not so fun I guess if you're a normal player who don't spend so much money in Cashshop just so you stand a chance against CS User Player Killer. Item from Cashshop is also required to max out any skill of a character. Maxing a skill level provides a major boost to the skill effectiveness, from not maxed.
Last but not least, /dance in ROHAN is kind of nice and addictive.

RATING
| Graphics - 7 / 10 | Sound - 7 / 10 | Gameplay - 5 / 10 | Features - 6 / 10 |
|
• Characters look great, and so the most armors • Same level characters usually wear the same armors (even with combining armors) • Lack of customization, both characters and armors |
• Some theme songs are nice. Sound Effects are also quite intense • Sadly nothing is outstanding |
• Mouse control is annoying • Looting items is slow (especially the Elf) • Grinding starts at quite early level • Character Movement Speed is slow, even with ingame mount. You need a CS mount to move faster than 'painfully slow' • Leveling is a pain at high level. It takes a long time, and the best way to gain experience is to stay all day in Dungeons, camping a room with fast re-spawn rate monsters with your party |
• Guild Leader position is not transferable • Cashshop is overpowered • Auto Assign Ranking in Guild is not functional. Do so manually is a pain when a guild can hold up to 1,024 members |
