I tried 3 of 5 professions. I like monk and Tamer. Tamer can capture almost all the animals. And the Pet is great to tank mobs. But tamer is not a good class for PVP. If you like PVP, I suggest you choose monk..

i think so
well i played Talisman in CB and it was very boring. im not a graphics whore but this was to much..everywhere u look..fog! The interface is a copied 1:1 from WoW.
Quests are boring as hell..go there kill 10 of these etc. the gameplay is minimized to basic..nothing special.
its free yes..but its totaly crap!
this is one of thos egames that get boring after 30 mins..there is no use in playing it .
Sorry you had such a bad experience with it, and maybe it was a lot worse at the stage of closed beta you played. I didn't join till after they had started open beta so maybe a lot of changes had went into the game by then.
How it stands now this is hands down, no contest, the BEST free mmorpg out. The only real reason to play any other free mmo over this one is if you are looking for more pvp focus. This game does have pvp, but it's minimal, and it SERIOUSLY punishes PK'rs.
Currently there are TONS of quests to do, and just like every mmo (or any other type of game with quests) most of them are just telling you what to go kill. There are also delivery quests, but only where it makes sense to send your character into the next area it makes sense for them to level and find even more quests. There are quests to kill xx amount of whatever mob, quests to collect xx random drops from a certain mob, quests to kill boss mobs, quests to deliver items to an npc who will then lead you to more quests, quests to escort npc's through a dangerous trip where you will have to kill mobs trying to kill the npc, even quests to gather items from harvestables with no fighting at all. Overall this game has more variety than EVERY free mmo in the area of quests, and actually more than you will find in a lot of pay to play games as well.
In addition to that you will find this game has all those advanced features everyone has learned to associate with only pay to play games because the free ones NEVER have them. Ingame mail with item/money attachments, central and searchable player market that doesn't require you to stay online to run your individual shop, good options for group looting so the healers and support classes aren't left out, etc...
The entire concept of "talismans" as your weapons and the way you get skills is at least in my experience totally unique, and it is quite fun bringing a different way of playing once you get used to the system. Especially once you are higher level and can choose from 2 different types of weapons with entirely different skills/roles and gameplay, and 4 or more assist talismans with their own skills that you swap out as you decide to use different ones. Since you can only wear two assist talismans, and don't have the skills from them when not wearing, it adds yet another element of strategy to the game.
The game is not yet finished and already has more to offer than any other three free games you want to combine, and it's only getting better.
This game deffinently needs a lot of work. The chat box is always cluttered. When you say something the chat only lasts about 3 seconds above your head. When your trying to ask someone for a team to kill a boss for a quest they don't seem to answer you ever! It's like your talking to a bunch of 6 year olds. I seriously asked a group of 2-3 ppl for team about 4 times and then the boss finally spawns and they kill it without me. I mean cmon how ignorant are these people? If you are a patient person and don't mind dealing with stupid people than I guess this games for you.
It's a good thing this game is F2P, otherwise I'd want my money back. Specifically:
1) It copies WoW. A lot. Not 'hey, this looks kinda like WoW', more like 'hey, I'm surprise the Blizz lawyers haven't come down on these guys yet'.
2) The dialogue is bad. I'm usually pretty lenient when it comes to translations, but this is like a frikkin kung fu movie dubbed by Borat. I'd give examples, but you wouldn't believe me.
3) Movement and camera are chock full o' fail, with extra suck added! To move, you click on the ground in front of you. And I do mean 'in front of you'; clicking anywhere beyond about a ten yard radius doesn't register. The camera itself goes from almost overhead to almost over the shoulder, stopping short of the view I actually want.
4) People have called the Talisman concept 'unique', which I guess is true. I prefer to use the term 'dumb'. Here's the gist of it; your Talisman (weapon) levels up with you. Hoo boy! To level it up, you stand perfectly still for about three minutes watching a bar fill up. Yay!
5) I could only stand it till about level 8 (I think the level cap is like 30), so this may change later on, but during that time I encountered zero 'hostiles'. Attack one guy in a 'mob', and the rest just stand there striking poses. I was never once actually attacked.
Bottom line; yeah, it's free. In this case, you get what you pay for.
Evil will always win, because Good is dumb.
2) Actually have to agree here, the translations are terrible, and even though this is supposed to be an english game I think the GM's only speak english as a second language, and not great at times either.
3) If you couldn't click beyond a ten yard radius you may have gotten a corrupt install or something. I run it on 3 different computers here, 2 in XP and one in 64bit Vista and all 3 can click anywhere as far off as is drawing on the screen, and even with obstacles in the way you WILL get there. I generally hate click to move, but at least they have good pathfinding here, you won't find your character getting stuck if you clicked somewhere beyond an obstacle. And I can litterally click a distination so far off in the screen that you can't see the little "target" it paints on the ground until you've been running toward it for a minute.
4) At level 8 (which you stated was as far as you went) you have only been outside the tutorial for 2 levels at best, and you have yet to obtain even your third talisman, so you had an empty slot left and yes at that point it's pretty much a given that you will be able to level your talismans with you. Once you obtain the fourth and actually can swap out talismans for different situations and need to decided WHICH to level because you won't have energy to keep them all maxed, then the game gets a lot better.
5) You can reach level 10 and get your 3rd talisman in under 20 minutes easily, though I will admit this is as an experienced player making an alt. It's been so long now since I started that I don't remember. I do know it was WELL under an hour before I had my three main ones the very first time I played. So in your case I'd guess you spent no more than 30 minutes in the game, if it was longer than that a lot of it was afk time... As for agro mobs you are eased into that, around level 20 you will start in areas that are agro, and from there on out all hunting areas are. Oh and the level cap was 50 the last time I checked, haven't actually logged in for a few weeks as I have been trying other stuff.
It is a good game depending on who plays it. i enjoyed it till i got out of the mountain, then i got bored. 6/10
I'm not a freak about graphics but this is horrible. I was also highly disappointed with the dialouge which had tons of typo's. If you want to be able to say you've played 'em all go ahead, but this game is definetly not setting the pace for MMORPG's.
I think its a nice game for some people ,
but for me... the game is fun...
BUT gets boring to fast , not enough content ,
not enough stuff i aint seen 100x before

Same! i have got 1 friend each day (some a day, noone some days i mean then), and 2 ppl i know also play it. sure, i cant group quest with them, cause they are lvl 4 and 6, while im lvl 27. i tried 4 proffesions, and i like assasin best. I dunno wjhy i like it best, but there are bad things too. like mana potions, what am i going to do with those? i got stamina and stuff like little wild mule i say exactly the same about. maximise mana, what mana!? thats the bad thing with sin and monk, but i really like to play the game. I like the scenarios, which can give stuff as payment when u finished them. The games good, and gives a lot of oppertunities.
PS: for those whos playing and want a tiger: there is a lvl 25 quest for you to use, which gives a divine in payment. Get some friends with you, cause u will never make it alone until u are like lvl 60, as my friends friend
Cool, i have met many friends in game too! And I love playing and chatting with them XP
Although we come from different countries and speak different languages, we have fun together!
