Hooray! Pourings!

RO isn't kiddy

, but my hopes aren't up. The current RO is nothing more than leveling and a horribly weak pvp/gvg system.

You know who the kids are? The people who care more that a game is "adult and serious" rather than whether that it is fun.

As long as I can still snipe/power level with my archer, I won't complain

But think of the porings!

That game is a sin against humanity.

At least since Gravity got off their asses and corrected the spelling. The Engrish made the game. It would have made it worth paying for, too.

Meh...forget the porings...what about a Baphomet telporting into your group of 10 level 70's.

That was a sad day in Hidden Dungeon...

NitrousUser · Sep 13, 2005

You know, I was considering playing this game....now I do want to play it. lol

Blaaguuu · Sep 14, 2005

ill be looking forward to an english beta... doubt i would pay to play the game, though.

i hope its better than ROSE Online, though... that game is pretty fun... for about a day.

Welcome to the world of Korean MMORPGs.

PS - It's not better. It's practically identical.

go wow dude :X

I hope it's a few orders of magnitude better than the last Unreal Engine based MMO I played. That'd put it somewhere near "mediocre". But I feel it won't manage enough orders of magnitude (in fact I'm not sure it'll be better than Lineage 2 at all) for that.

zeh · Sep 14, 2005

Weird. Ragnarok's different because its, err, kind of old-school looking without being ****ty as Tibia. I can understand them going 3d because "it looks better", but it kind of detracts from the originality of the game.

Oh well, MMORPGs are the devil's spawn anyways.

We can't see it in a bad way. At least, the engine improve and there is more and more business around it. More expansive horrizon in gaming it will be.

EDIT: oh wait, it already is.
