I'm searching for a new mmorpg to play. I have tried a few but they all don't seem to keep me intrested in playing.
I would like to try a mmorpg in a asian setting, with nice baground music and perhaps some cool martial arts fighting styles.
what I dont like:
- grinding
- extremely huge animated emoticons used in chats
- simple graphics
- simple mops
- simple quests
- too much focussed on PVP
- (no item mall) but this isnt really so important..
What I like:
- good background music, that have alot of variety
- enough choices to personalize my character (clothes, hair, gear etc)
- PVP with big groups. I dont know the correct word, but for example teams vs teams. (guilds vs guilds)
Thanks in advance

First thing that comes to my mind is 9dragons. It has some grinding though, but there is quests (I prefer grinding though). There is item mall and you can buy extra inventory slots, items to help level faster and of course some costumes. This game has no flashy skills, instead the movements are more of a kung fu techniques or whatever. You can level the skills and the skill will have some advanced movements when the ksill is leveled. For example at cheng 3 (level 3 skill) the skill will have 2nd part of the technique and cheng 5 (level 5 skill) it will have the final movement serie. Skills can go up to cheng 10 and later on cheng 12 i believe.
About pvp, the huge pvp event is Storm vs Storm. I haven't participated on that but I believe its the white clan vs black clan. Black clan has 3 different clans and so does white clans side. Then each clan has 4 classes (hybrid, warrior, healer and nuker aka mage style class). Each class and clan has different kinds of skills. So the class system itself provides alot of variety. There is 2nd clan role later on the game too but I don't know much about it. The game has (or had, dont know if this have changed) open pvp in certain maps too.
The Legend of Wutai thing is gonna be good imo, might wanna wait for it
So What Now?
I think that these 4 are the best Martial Arts MMO as to date
Martial-arts
Blade & Soul
Warriors of the 3 Kingdoms II
Yulgang 2
The Heaven of Three Kingdoms
Aion
Bulpae
Other Martial Arts graphics hmmm not that good. Well, maybe other martial arts are into gameplay.
One of the thing you can expect to get in a asian MMO IS grinding. If you dont like grinding then why you like asian MMOs? Its the core of their games.
oh please, this is so biased
there are lots of Western made MMO that have a lot of grindings as well, dont make me start naming them
So What Now?
