    Default is flyff the best of its kind?

    in the 3d cartoonish aspect of mmorpgs, is flyff the best? There r some competition like fiesta or rose however. Does anything in flyff make up for the horrible grind? What makes it better than the rest out there?

    It's popular simply because it's been around for a long time.

    I think it's one of the best simply because they didn't screw anything up.

    How so? I don't think Flyff could be considered the "perfect" game, much less an "excellent" one.

    Agreed.

    Personally, FlyFF was kind of "dull" maybe because I simply didnt put enough effort into it.

    I mean, I heard it got ruined by certain patches (Of course, I dont know which ones)

    But meh, I guess its more reliable then some other MMORPGS on the market nowadays.

    well, i like how you don't have to be lvl 100000000 to fly. And I like how open the world feals. But you're right it's definently not the best game out there.

    I didn't say it was perfect, I just said they didn't screw anything up.

    You have to be level 20 and fly and considering the max level is 120, it's not exactly hard to reach.

    Including the idiotic cash shop? The drained community? Repetitive gameplay? Abhorred grind?

    I never heard that word before (Heads over to Dictionary.com)

    Edit: Abhor - To regard with horror or loathing; detest

    So it is a word. Intresting. (Ive heard of Abhor not Abhorred looked a tad bit funny to me :P )
    Yay I learned a new word

    Anyways.. I never really understood why games like Flyff, Silkroad and Maplestory are so popular. Maby the simple gameplay?

    Its the most "Solid" or "stable" game , does this make it the best content wise ? No . Graphicly no ? Comunity wise no ?


    However it has above mediocre gameplay graphics and community , along with a stable host and overall a decent game , the best is a little far fetched however the company besides the patches are aparently doing a pretty dam good job.

    I still dont care for any anime based game , mabinogi is the best by far.

    It's easily the most populated free mmo (besides runescape and maple story).

    Thats a ridiculously stupid thing to say......plenty of mmorpgs that have been around for ages are near dead.

    gpotato keep flyff constantly updated and constantly have events. I also liked the newer versions so meh gpotato and flyff have really shown that some f2p companies are not lazy.

    To speed...max level is 120. Then u reborn to 60 and go to 120 again. Then you do it one more time. Check the site for details cause i cant remember.

    oh they screwed up alright, i forgot the certain patch that changed the org. Flyff to the Flyff of WoW, and then they took the PK aspects away (but they made up for it for making a PK server which is horrible)

    then again Flyff is the only free mmorpg i know of that i played the longest even though for every patch they did, it was dissatisfying for me.

    Flyff is one of the best anime style mmo's
    But rose is better imo.

    Well, that may be the case for you.
    But, what about the people that don't have enough penya to buy those items in-game?
    And it almost does get cash shop dependent. Almost.
    In order to level more efficiently, you'd want to get Scroll of Blessing and maybe some Amp scrolls and a ticket to Azria. :/

    I didn't like this game at all, I didn't find anything nice about it, not one bit, but I haven't played it in like 3 years so I can't say all this with complete confidence.

    However, I'd rather play DOMO or Mabinogi, well, mainly I'd rather play Orka, man that game was freaking awesome, too bad their servers were modified toasters and it went down the drain.
