I have recently been playing a new mmorpg called magic world. This mmo has a lot of the things other mmos have, but I find it quite more fun.
Leveling does not seem to take forever like most mmorpg's and item drops are quite common. There are attributes to make it difficult though, like failing to upgrade your weapon. You get your first class upgrade at level 15 and acquire a growing weapon soul at 20 through the completion of certain quests. You acquire new and stronger skills as you upgrade your class. You use your weapons soul to absorb other weapons and make it stronger. The character classes are as follows: mage, warrior, archer, and summoner. This game is centered around the Empire versus the Dynasty, which you get to pick which side you are on. The gameplay is a tad more anime like than straight graphics, so it is rather enjoyable to watch. The game is perspective like Diablo 2 is. There are some innovative things about this game as well. There is a built in webcam system that lets you cam chat with your friends while you play. Magic World has a bot system in it as well that is very advanced, letting you decide almost everything for your character to do while you are away at work, or where ever. I think this game is enjoyable in the fact that I don't feel like I have to be the best and I can just enjoy playing it. It just came out too, so if you want to get ahead on an mmo then you should pick up this one!
You can also get free platinum membership for promoting this game!
