TOG - The Older Gamers

WaXwOrK (BONANZA!) · 20th August 2009, 09:19 AM

This is a game that holds innovation and sets the standard on how I will view MMO's from now on, No longer is the standard of mediocre graphics acceptable for spells and animations.

I would like to introduce to you Perfect World,

(In-Game screenshot of my lvl 8 Cleric; with infinite fly ability)

It's innovated with many customization options, as well as a good quest system (Self Guided directions such as an auto pilot).

Also has a very unique balance of community and gaming.

You also get wings that you can use unlimited (If you are an archer or cleric)

Character Customization

If you created your character and decide different hair style, Eye color. Just go to character Select screen click Modify and you have all the customization abilities so you can customize whenever you want throughout the game. No restrictions on looking that way forever again

These are both players, you can actually carry your loved one.

PW is a very interesting game indeed, it 's on my list of games I want to play in the future. The quests with autotracking are a wonderfull invention for players who get lost all the time like me. I played Ether Saga online, one of the three games the perfect world company released. It's resembles PW a lot, but has more anime like graphics.
I fell in love with the graphics and gameplay, and especially the content since ether saga, jade dynasty and also perfect world I think are based on Chinese novels. Ether Saga follows the storyline of Monkey go West, one of my favorite stories when I was little.
What kept me on ES so long were the skills, I like playing an AOE character, and I never played a better one then on this game. At higher level my healing type of character killed 25+ mobs at a time while kiting. Another nice thing in their games is that you can get exp from a number of daily events, that don't take up a lot of your time. I was also impressed by the large updates we got on a regular basis.
I have to warn you a bit about the free part though. It's free for players who don't play hardcore and who won't fall for the temptation of buying a lot of the nice items they release in their item mall regularly. But if you want to upgrade your equipment to a pro level and your not willing to do a BIG effort in farming (in group on world bosses, doing instances over and over for months) you will put in a lot of cash. I think the two free to play games where I saw people spending most money were Rohan Online and Ether Saga.
But I would still recommend you all to give it a go. Have fun !

I just came across this the other day, thought it was worth a mention,

Its a browser based game, humorous in a terry pratchett novel kind of way. Worth a look, especially if you like old school stuff.

I'm a level 5 pastamancer, or a Carbohydrate Cognoscenti.

That 's a very original game ! We can add some of the better browser based games but most of the F2P games we want to add require a game client that is free to download.

Interesting!

Its funny but just yesterday I was complaining that my flying character couldn't pick up my friend and carry her over a wall that was too high for her to jump.

It's really usefull, both perfect world and ether saga have this embrace and carry option. My friends used to carry me around all the time to make sure I didn't get lost on my way to war again lol.

I've downloaded PW but haven't installed it. I guess playing Guild Wars, Runes of Magic,CoD4 and Unreal Tournament III I run out of time through the week.

Looks very good I must say.
