Comparison: Ok lets start our journey here, this is a f2p 3D game. There are really a lot of system in this game which I really love it much. Especially the Battle system : Basic Battle, Combo, Battle mode, PVP, PK and of course last and not least our Guild battle system, later on in my review I will actually introduce this system to you. The different between this and others 3D game is that ,you get exp from each hit and not killing each monster, don?t get it confuse that if u use an AOE (Area of Effect) you will only get one hit exp, Nope! you will get more exp than your usual exp. This game is also Quest based game ,what do I mean by it, it means each and every level you will have few quests and after doing all this quests you will get 1 level because the exp given in this quests are a lot, sometime you even get more than 1 level. The character in this game is also much different from other game ,there are FORCE sheilder, FORCE archer and more...There a lot of thing that I love this game than others games...but I can?t say all in one "breath" so I will introduce you while we get along....*There a lot more I didn¡¯t mention here*:P
First Impression: My first impression of this game is AVERAGE! yea you didn?t see wrong it AVERAGE! When you get in game you will see the AVERAGE graphics! BUT when your level get higher your amour start to look cool and also when you getting new skills such as AOE ^^.The trees, Ice, water all looks realistic. Yes one of the most system I love is WARP gates. Warp gates can be used only at level 3 or greater. These Warp gates link you to Time limited dungeon(Which you will need to get in , killing mobs, secret lamp to complete your quest in a limited time WOW) and to others world such as. .Bloody ice, Desert Scream, Green despair and more...When you first get into the DS or GS you will not be able to see the map until you finish a quest that will reward you a DS OR GS map. Not to forget the upgrading system in this game, you need certain level to upgrade your stuff especially the upgrading of CORE to your armour which will eventually rotate around your armour.. This core will cost really expensive. Before you can learn this upgrading skill you need to have License which you going to be reward in a quest this similarly apply to Battle System, Combo system and more....
Graphics:6/10[If you treat graphic importantly] 8/10[If you are those who don?t treat graphic importantly] The graphic to me is average compare to other 3D games.. but the realistic look ok the water, forest makes me rate it between 6-8 upon 10.Why didn¡¯t I actually rate it higher, it because the skill and the armour of the game really look cool and really different compare to other 3D games which almost looks alike. The monster looks real and actually NEW idea which have Huge Battle, Toad, Troglo and more...If you still don?t know what are this monster are explore yourself because there are hundreds more. The graphic that I like the most is the CORE rotating around your armour, actually I am not that sure whether is it the core or something else rotating around the armour, if you know please correct me :P.
Sound:4/10[No jukebox] 10/10[Juke Box] The game music is horrible ,really I swear...I asked 10 and 10 tell me that the music in the game really....Especially in bloody ice. But the skill effect was great. But in order to make the sound 10/10 use Juke Box which I mention above 10/10[Juke Box] you can actually change your music file to OGG format and drag the music into the Jukebox File in the cabal file ,so The sound is bad or best is actually lie on you :).Lets not talk much about the sound xD...
