Addictive but...
This game only gives you 4 classes to choose from; Warrior, Mage, Monk and Assassin. You cannot choose gender as they are already set with the classes. If you are a girl and want a female character then you would have to choose Assassin because its the only choice.
This game doesnt give you enough to personalise your character. That is the level limits for items. If you are for example a Warrior, and see another warrior near you level, he is likely to be wearing the same clothing as you and using the same weapon too.
Once you learn the controls and get to know the basics, you will be hooked to the game completely because, you would want to level up straight away and learn skills, get clothing etc. Theres so much to do at the beggining. Leveling up is easy.
There are a wide range of things you can do in the game. You can; go fishing, mining and herbing. Doing those allows you to make potions and upgrades, which you could make money out of the products you made too. You can buy and sell. You can kill other players either in duels or you can just attack them without both players to agree to battle. You can go drop hunting, train pupils, learn skills etc etc. ..
Animals, monsters, they are all over the game map. There are a wide range of designs in the monsters you can battle with in the game. You will come across tigers, foxes and bears etc at the start of the game. But later you will find, headless ghosts, insect monsters, martial monks etc. This part also gets players addict to the game because the higher lvl you are the more interesting monsters you will come across to fight.
But after a while, after you have explored everything. You will start to have a main target to level up and be the strongest, be the best and compete against other players. The maximum level in the game is lvl 144. And leveling starts to slow down and the chances you get drops from enemies you've hunted drops dramatically. After level 36 you will start to know that leveling just by hunting monsters will take hours or even days. But there are quests which when you complete them you get exp and same some time. From level 1 to 36, the game is pretty easy. That is to get the players addicted to it. After that it can take a while to level up. When you reach to about lvl 80, if you spend long hours on games you could probably level up once per day but for most people its more like 50% per day. Leveling gets really slow and more people gives up at these stages. In fact it gets pretty hard at lvl 50 if you only play 2 hours a day on computers.
This game is quite easy if you are a patient person. This game requires a lot of patience. You cant get anywhere without it. But the addiction of the game will probably make you play on it for more than you expect.
