Atlantica Online has been called out by many as a trend-setter in the MMO genre. It features top quality graphics that are aesthetically pleasing without resorting to bright, cartoonish colors. The developers have also incorporated a lot of social interaction features into the game which help enhance the gameplay.



One example is the mentor system which enables more experienced players to teach new players the basics of the game, show them tips and tricks and provide other useful information. The strategic tactics required in combat also set Atlantica apart from its competitors. Players can control a vast number of units which can be deployed after careful planning.

Atlantica is not without its problems. As with other MMOs, gold farming is a major hindrance for regular players. Users also point out that while combat itself is excellent, the game has a rather shallow storyline. In addition to this, the content of the quests themselves are not particularly innovative and thus, could easily bore higher level players. Another major flaw of the game is its high system requirements which effectively reduce Atlantica’s audience to people with high-end PCs.

I agree that Atlantica Online is one of the best mmorpg's that I have played but I disagree that it's a trend-setter because before AO there was Final Fantasy XI the first turn-based mmorpg.
