This game is AWSOME!!! I really cannot see why so many people don’t like it. Sure its point and click but it is a really awesome game! After you hit level 30 it just gets even better. The PVP is as good as it can be. All the classes are equal. There are awesome mounts/Armor/Weapons every thing in this game looks cool. The community is nice with few mean people. This game gets an A+ in my book. AND IT’S FREE TO PLAY!

Also the guild wars are HUGE!

Here is a picture of the graphics... Im the Knight.

Well.. the quests are a little dull.. and the graphic is kinda lame.. u only grind if u wanna lvl... but the gameplay is awsome.. the skills look awsome.. and u get cool weapons etc... the pvp owns yes ( u can attack low lvl players

)

don't be cheated by the eye-candy.

it's a typical korean game, grindfest, that's all, nothing else. the craft system is null, no gender selection, can't jump, can't swim, can't use ASDW to control, endless grinding, no content at all, you can ignore the quest system.

the good aspects are: pvp, pretty equipement, pretty graphics.

if you like "power-lvling", this game is for you.

Wow its like you never played the game before Gitawego... 1. Power Leveling in this game is just about worthless it would take a week or to just to get to level 30 from 1 lol! It’s faster to level your self. The quests give lots of exp skip them = longer grind... Also they are fun to me. That could be why you have to grind so much?? Content is great with a new Expansion coming soon! Awesome Mounts. Very fair game play.

I myself found it a likeable game. Except finding parties under lv 30 very hard. It was very grindy. I only got to lv 17. Yeah maybe I should put more into it but I got too bored to grind to lv whatever-the-fun-is.

That's why > i < don't play.

SteveIrwin · June 2007

According to gameloading your not allowed to say this game is awesome. You havent played the game from beginning to end so how can you possibly know if the game is awesome? Your opinion is thus invalid since you have not played til the end yet, sorry kid

SBC3 · June 2007

Ok...

christwarior · June 2007

I think this game's grind isn't that bad. For a Korean MMO this game is pretty good. In fact this game IS good. It's not the best, but its not the worst either.

*shudders* the movement... oh why won't the movement be easier....

it's better than what the beta (yeah i was there) was when they were going to charge you monthly and have a "shop feature" that you could buy goods from real money. (beta testers killed that idea off quickly)

But the movement... i know i keep mentioning it, but when i can't use my "arrow keys" and have to use WASD is fine.. yet you can press "W" once you'd think you'd face north, but no.. take a few steps and your character takes a step back and faces a different direction.

*shudders* lets not mention collision detection, memory leaks and character customisation (that clearly shows the game to be unfinished)... hair1, hair2, hair 23, hair 44. and that's it. pretty much

What, are you on the Archlord payroll? Obviously you either aren't allowed to, or can't afford to play, other games. If you love to fall asleep at the keyboard because you've been grinding for hours, this is the game for you.

Sure leveling is boring, but once you level its very nice. You do nothing but slaughter other people anywhere you want, but towns. Its nice to be looked at with huge thick armor with spikes all over and they just go wow! If you don't like leveling then why even look on an mmorpg website. Sadly there is a bot for this game out.

Kasp3r · June 2007

quests get you half way to the next lvl...then the mind blowing grind begins!

Damge53074 · June 2007

Grind or not I love this game. I love to work for my new armor knowing that not just anyone who joins can put on huge thick spiked armor.

Ahh actually you can use ASDW to move just not as good as others but u can use it and what game does not have grind in it the game looks fantastic and plays great so it gets a tick in my books

Damge53074 · June 2007

Exactly lets all stop doubting the game. Its not that bad of a game you don't need to say it sucks. If you say it sucks then show me a list explain why you think it sucks or did you just play for 2 minutes. A game that doesn't require a lot of grind? Never heard of one all mmo I play have hard core grinds.

bloodshed · June 2007

It is easy to see that people are split on saying if this game is good or not.

i beleive that it will be brilliant if they add gender control, edit the movement and add a few more quests. hopefully when this next big exspansion comes out that will happen

This post is so old man. But, the point still stands with the expansion holding this games fate for most people.

So old? The ORIGINAL post was only 2 weeks ago.

Lets stop spamming this post for extra mmo levels please....

nutha · June 2007

I prefer games with depth and a variety of control options. For me this game got un-interesting after about 2 weeks of game play. Once you get past the initial glamour you start to see how repetative it is and how much it lacks content. If you are looking for a game you can jump on and grind away for awhile.. hopeing for that next level so you can get new gear and skills.. it . It does not have too bad of PVP content, but you tend to get a lot of the lower level ganking action or getting jumped while you fight mobs etc... It seems like it lacks that honor/respect that good pvp needs, and is geared somewhat to the ganker types. I tried to play it again last week and that lasted about 1 hour.. it just doesn't have what it takes to keep me interested.

No one here is gonna buy your gold or your bots.

He just doesn't learn that. Remake new account and re post those messages again.

Reasons why I did not like this game when I just recently tried it out.

1.) Lack of wide screen display resolutions like 1680x1050 is a game killer ! Sorry but it's 2007 already ! Come on with the extra resolution support !

2.) This goes back to number 1 in regards to the UI not scaling to higher resolutions and thus hacking the *.ini file to get a higher resolution is worthless.

3.) Game is dead or near death. Servers with low populations = dying population.

4.) Repititve grind with nothing else to show for it besides neat looking gear.

5.) It appears the developers are not responding to the community and this game has been left to rot. Sorry any future updates are iffy at best to almost non-existent.

I actually didn't mind the ganking as much but those 5 points are game killers for me. Maybe not for you be for me they are reasons why I won't be playing this game.

flakes · July 2007

I found this to be the worst mmorpg I have ever played.Dull grindfest nothing more nothing less.But i could see others liking it , but it's far from my meaning of fun.

Note that i said "i found this" before another fanboy jumps on me.....getting that in every forum these days.

lol... I guess you haven't "met" gameloading yet in these forums. What SteveIrwin says is 100% true - though I think gl only pounces on those who criticize the game. He never questions positive feedback.

That said... I and some friends from Lineage II played Archlord for a time. I got to around level 40 before I was bored to tears. They lasted a bit longer and got closer to 60 before they, too, got bored with the game and left.

It's got a nice combination of elements ... It's a little closer to what I wish Lineage II was - PvP with some more emphasis on PvE/Quests. I know that's heresy to some of the more "hardcore PvP", but really, some people do enjoy PvP but also enjoy doing something other than level grinding non-stop, and L2's sparse quests just didn't deliver on that. Sad thing is L2 has some incredibly deep lore to draw from. It was good to see that Archlord went a little more in that direction. But, for us it wasn't enough to keep us there.

One of the major turn-offs to me was just how - to me - ridiculously placed the mobs were. You'd have one type of mob all massed together in a small area... run a little farther, and a completely new kind of mob is all massed together... a little farther beyond that, yet another new type of mob all massed together. It was the most ridiculous arrangement of fauna I've ever seen in a game. It just cried out "I'm a grind game!"

So.. I don't know.. since it's free to play and I've already bought the box, I'll probably check it out again at some point in the future to see how it's progressed, but for what was there when I was playing, it just got too boring for me.

great game, but not worth paying for, there are a lot of free games you can play instead
