¡°Kal online is just another copy of the idea for the medieval battle between two mortal enemies.¡± That is what most skeptics would say if they haven¡¯t played this game. Are they right? It depends on the gamer if you are a person who likes simplicity, then this a game you would enjoy, but if let¡¯s say you are profound and you like something more challenging for the brain, than Kal isn¡¯t for you. There are about 10 magic spells in the whole game. There are 3 classes archer (female), knight (male) and magician( also female). They have similar job tree. The interface is for me not so good for example you can¡¯t use two magics at the same time you have 1) click on it in the tray bar and 2) you have to click with right button on the thing you want to use it on.
So let¡¯s talk about the graphics. I think that the company has spent too much work on the figures of the char. and the monsters and they have completely forgotten to make this real. For example you can walk through a tree or a monster but you can¡¯t walk through a char. The animations are slow and ugly, the monsters are total funny. For example a 1st lv monster is a Demon Vulgar.
Overall I grade the graphics with 4.5/10
The sound isn¡¯t very good in Kal online. It doesn¡¯t match the actions that happen or the mood of the area. Unfortunately instead of helping make the person feel in the medieval ages the sound makes you take of you headset. So I give it 3/10 for the sound.
Here this game fails big time. Lets see the controls.
1.EXP: Character¡®s exp. bar. 2.When the lower gauge is full, the upper gauge increased by one and getting 10 boxes means level-up. 3.MP: Character¡®s magic point. 4.HP: Character¡®s health health point. 5.Compass: The ball of compass always points to the north. 6.Info. Window of the Target: Displays currently targeted enemy¡®s name and its health info. 7.Menu Window: Displays character¡®s info./invent./skills/party/mission/map and changes game setting. 8.Quick Slots: Registers the skills that are used often 9.Message Window: Depends the type of the message, its color is different. 10.Chatting Window: Displays normal chatting in white and whisper in blue and sets the option of display
The exp. bar is simply awful and unnecessary complicated. The hp and mp bars are ok but they aren¡¯t anything new or special. The compass is unnecessary and confusing. I suppose that it is ok to put the hp of the monsters in the middle of the top. The menu is useless especially in the top. The quick slots are well a total disaster- you can¡¯t use two things simultaneously. In conclusion the gameplay needs a lot more work so the grade is 4/10. In Kal online the chatting system is worse than terrible. It took me 2 hours playing time to discover how to use it. There is nothing much to say about community in this game except that it needs a lot of work. Grade 2/10 . This is game you can kill a few hours nothing more (maybe lees). If you want something more try Guild wars or Lineage 2. There is nothing new in this game so don¡¯t be disappointed from it too much.
