Rappelz Open Beta is now Open




Quote:
Rappelz which ranked 7th in Korea only 1 month after its launch is a FREE to PLAY MMORPG set in a medieval fantasy world, with features designed to appeal to both casual and hardcore players alike. Rappelz comes with extensive lists of quests, allowing users to play solo and/or group up and level at their leisure. Along the way, you will be able to customize your character with a deep job system that allows for unique character builds, and you will fight using a combat system that allows the usage of pets, tamed from various parts of the Rappelz world, to fight alongside and assist you. The pets can be leveled up as well, with their own talent and job skills.


Just make a acount on their site :

Tried it today. nothing too new. It currently has a bunch of bugs, and you can't lower the res lower than 1024x768. (Not that I have to) And it has a memory leak. It can cripple 2GB machines after a bit.

God i'm sick of all these generic MMORPG's. Developers seem to have got the impression they're the perfect cash cow recently.

The problems with the Asien MMO's aint that they are all "the same" since as you say most mmorpg's are, they have to be because there is a certain formular that must be followed, otherwise it's not a game or it ends up like Seed, the game that tried to be just roleplaying, no leveling, fighting or anything else and failed.

But where most western mmo's tries to differ on HOW you do things, how you level up, how you fight and so on, asian ones don't.

Wow is quite quest-based, AO is mostly group based, daoc is based on what happens after PVE, i.e the pvp and the pve is built to go fast with instanced task dungeons and so on.

Asien MMO's are based on one thing and one thing only, Grinding.

You make a char, you go out, you hit the mobs with your standard setup, standard few skills, standard huge amount of potions.
You keep doing this for a week, you are level 10, out of a hundred.

If you wanna see if I am right, then try any of the following (I have)
Silkroad Online
Hero Online
RF Online
ArchLord
The Legend of Ares

And the list continues.

All of them have done almost nothing for char creation, quest creation, armor/weap creation, it's jsut standard flashy with no skill required and no real usefulness

Dunno about that, Huxley does have the UT engine to brag with - but I'd rather wait until I know more about the game before I even bother with another korean game.

I can show you pictures of TEN, thats right, TEN different asian MMORPG's.
I promise you that you wont be able to tell them apart.
98% of all asian mmorpg's have the exact same graphics engine, exact same player models, exact same animations, exact same lazy heightmap world, exact same gameplay mechanics.
Lineage 2 is probably the "best" one, most fun, newbie friendly, biggest world, best artwork (of any game to date tbh if you look at the art on the weapons and armor on the website), and recently updated gfx engine, still the old unreal engine but now with mild bloom (set how much u want, thumbs up there) etc..

Check out the swords "Heavens Divider" and "Sword of Damascus".
And the "Elysian Axe" and "Art of Battle Axe".
Not to mention the "Draconic Bow" or the classic "Eminence Bow" Very Happy

But im too lazy, and its not worth it. You can google for asian mmorpg yourself and see if you can tell the difference =D

yeah, but thats just it. Lineage 2 was worthless (imo ofc) - just cos its a mindblowing engine in Huxley it doesnt really mean anything...it could still be a mmorpg version of Daikatana for all I know Razz

I can't even remotely agree, MMORPG's are the future of gaming, every second games without a persistent universe are dying simply because people demand more for their money.

Singleplayer games are good for a day, week, month or whatever but you grow tired and they grow outdated, some MMORPG's you can continue playing, heck I still play DAOC after 4+ years.

No MMORPG's aint shit, they are the best thing to hit gamers since caffein.

Asien mmo's though are shit, 99.9% of all mmorpg's are SHIT but each person has their taste and can one day find the one they like/want.

Every other MMO is dying because of the imperialistic and monopolistic reign of Word of GrindCraft, nothing more.

Single player games are great experiences to play through a few times, and you have good memories from most of them. Regular multiplayer games too, and they don't have a short lifetime either, most of them lasts for years.

Now, MMORPGs you get tired and they do grow outdated fast. You have to play months and months to achieve something from them. They are in general for people who have way too much sparetime on their hands, they create addictiveness (there are studies of people dropping out of school, work, loosing friends, family), and most of all, they are all the same shit if you look at them.

Well in my experience people who get totally immersed in MMORPGs usually either have some trouble integrating socially in real life or they're some king of losers (bad job, no gf, living with parents who won't allow firends or girls at home and don't let you go out etc.) In a virtual world they're heroes, "generals" or whatever it's called in WoW they feel so cool, important and respected. I'm talking about relations in clans here.

If u have an interesting job, friends, some social life, a nice girlfriend, wife or family, you go to movies, clubs, gym etc. you'll never ever feel the need to waste 3-5 fucking hours on some dumb raid )

Personally an hour of BF2 or CS:S is more than enough for me to take stress off ))

Just because you don't like them it doesnt really make them shite. I dislike the majority of them but I must admit that I like the whole idea of mmorpg and have spent 5000-7000 hours playing DAoC myself. Sure, it might be a waste of time - but its just as much waste as watching telly/movie or anything else.
