    SMT:I
    good
    -Not just click and skill spam
    -Placement is very imporant
    -Monster fusion = good

    bad
    -Cashshop in beta
    -You'll spend almost all your time in Suganami tunnels until you quit (which you likely will before level 45)
    -Definate builds - Mage, Gunner, Melee with very limited selection of skills
    -Int / Con are useless stats compared to your main stat
    -Mounts are temporary (unless cashshop) as rings required to ride them degrade.
    -The only thing to do in the game is grind

    The game is pretty fun. You should play it and don't let people deter you from it.

    It's really a game for the fanbase. Thing is, most of us here hate AeriaGames, so we wouldn't go near any of their games, regardless of their funfactor.

    I'll just mention what i've heard.

    Apparently Mabinogi has quite the similar 'rock, paper, scissors' battle system and many people prefer that game more. Also, someone mentioned that there is not much endgame content, even on their official Japanese servers. That, combined with the horrendous amount of grind that you have to put in, deters many players from playing.

    I have to say that the fusion system is quite interesting though, along with monster capturing.

    The game was great for the first 35 levels then the story ends the quests stop and the game is pure dungeon grind.

    Sounds like every mmorpg tbh xD. Big difference is this one comes with a story to keep you entertained for awhile before dumping you into the grind. Not to mention the pvp update soon to come.

    The PvP was promised for CB.... trust me it sounds like other games but, it's a lot worse 10+ runs(Each run is about 30minutes-1 hour) too level once at 35 and cap is like 100.

    I had been invited to the closed beta, and at first I was like wow, could Aeria Games have done this not just for profit? That is until I rpogressed, and I gotta say, awww.. even though it was an interesting run! If you want to play, I say go for it, but you were warned.

    Ill admit, I played and quit within 20 minutes because I didnt see the stratergy needed, like in mabinogi. HOWEVER PVP + THIS = LOLOLOLWUT?!?!?!?

    I will re run to 35, everyone says OMG IT R NO FUN AFTR DAYT, well, if it is lets have fun for a week or two and when PVP comes, PWN DAYT *****? NAW MEAN?


    In all seriousness, im re installing, and Ill see if I can get into this also, is everyone here a ~Anti fan~ of this game?

    I do hate aeria and I will never touch their cashshop however, Im willing to play there games


    Edit: Ill be honest, I play maple story..There is no end game, at least this gets PVP and dungeons / stories, I think Ill ebcome a big fan after slowly thining about it

    I dunno I found it quite a cool spin on the hotkey system, even if as I described in my other thread I have now pretty much decided to give all those style of games a miss! lol

    Oh no, dont get me wrong. I love this game 8D. I'm just saying that there's no reason to dislike it seeing as how every other mmo on the market is like it and less.

    Way to contribute.

    As for the pvp update that's coming, is it like Devil vs Devil or just Player vs Player?

    I think the gunners are going to be killing...everything ;o

    If not guns then mages.
