Playthrough #1 - The Grind to LvL 40 | RipperX - Revelation Online Videos - MMORPG.com
Ripper's on a mission - hit level 40, start PVP, and don't look back. Revelation Online sports some pretty epic PVP, but it doesn't begin until the mid-game levels, so Ripper X is taking to My.com's new release to make that dream a reality.

Truer words were never spoken.
Also trying to get to level 40 to start pvp.
Pfft....some gamer....
Why do game reviewers always have handles like "professional" wrestlers? All part of the side show? Compensating for deficiencies elsewhere?
Jason Longmire, now there is a name for a reviewer I would follow.
RipperX indeed.

It's hugely different actually. Open world instead of instanced, probably wider variety of activities to do, different combat (mostly different in the lack of combos and the targeting methods).

Biggest issues with Revelations are
1) the game really sucks at the start of it especially levels 1-29 (this is 2-3hrs btw). Until level 40 you are locked into a extended learning session... most the game is locked out.
2) If you are looking for an action mmo this is not an action mmo outside a few classes. Aka do not try to play a healer in action mode.... it does not work well at all.
3) It is not translated yet.... some quest are in full Chinese and they are multiple choice questions... get it wrong and you have to start over... and the questions are random. Yea.....
4) The quest system is complete garbage... way way way way way way too much spamming F and Space to get through quest and 1 quest is like 10 quest in this game for absolutely no reason.
5) The game feels like you are playing a bunch of games crammed into 1. They did a decent job of making it fit, but still it is obvious X element was taken from X mmo.
6) The game is highly focused around dailies. By highly focused I mean almost everything.
7) Alot of various grinds... if you are opposed to working for progression.
8) Outside dailies leveling is hell at 40+. (not as slow as old school mmos, but will feel like a complete grind)
The positives:
1) An absurd amount of stuff to do while leveling up. More then literally any other mmo I have played so far. (Once you unlock stuff 40+)
2) Guild systems in game seem solid.
3) Graphics, honestly they are not bad if it is on full. Not BD quality but better then or equal to most AAA mmos.
4) World Design. Open world, Open dungeons. Not everything instanced. (Some instances but not everything, which is a good thing)
5) A large amount of customization in skills, abilities, stats, crafting and gathering. (Almost to the point of excessive, but is nice to see a mmo do this instead of everyone is the same like in modern mmos)
Things I have no clue on because I have not experienced it. (Honestly these will determine if I stay with the game longterm)
1) Economy: Crafting, Gathering, Making money is it worthwhile endgame or just a stepping stone to get to raid gear like most mmos.
2) Endgame content: Is there a variety of things to do. Or is it Guild Dailys + 1st raid => 2nd raid => 3rd raid => wait for expansion, with some pvp in it.
Personally I would rate this game poor below 30, average 30-40, above average 40-48(Where I am) If endgame has a lot to do and it is not a linear pile of garbage like most mmos... then I would say the game is actually pretty good once you get past the horrible start. But If endgame devolves into running a single hard mode raid once or twice a week and pvp... then it is utter crap.
At least for me endgame is everything because the rest only last for 1-3 month, endgame will last the other potential 50-100 months.

None of the classes in RO are gender locked. Stop pretending you know what you're talking about.

Good lord, another one who's never played yet thinks their qualified to comment. It plays nothing like B&S. RO is much more tab target. B&S is pure action combat. I hate sounding like a white knight esp. for a game I don't care much for but it's tiring seeing people make definitive statements about games they've clearly never played.

Open world is what sold me to this game.
But than i had to go hard way to learn painful truth: the open world is empty. No quests, no mobs,no npc ... nothing - empty spaces.
There is a very linear path around story quests and daily quests that is populated - everything else is just empty decoration.
In fact the game is 100% focuses on re-doing daily quests and dungeons ( and there are not many of them too ) - Its actually worse than most of such asian games
Thank you! I thought I was the only one seeing this as no one else mentions it
The animations are so god awful that it made my head hurt while playing
Hodor!
