AFAIK the characters don't have their own "stories".Originally Posted by Asiankid0
first off, the characters are gender-locked for a reason. Like every other tens of thousands of mmorpgs out there, this game has a background and storyline to it too. Each character has his/her own past, goal, personality, etc. I am sure Nexon's idea of gender-locking each class was for this purpose....nevertheless, even with gender-lock, the game is fun overall.
and as I have mentioned before, Dragon Nest combat is pretty much like Rakion with Lunia Online style dungeon system. Sure you can't juggle in Rakion, and you can't attack knocked down enemies, but thats just a bonus to this game.
in terms of facial appearance and feature, yes, pretty much all of the classes will look similar if not the same due to limited customization. But there are a wide variety of weapons and armor and each armor part gives a different look to your character~ Think of it as like Diablo 2
They are not gender-locked, unique characters with personalities like the Lunia characters.
They are just classes; "Cleric, Sorcerer" and so on. They are gender-locked and have no customization. So, it seems to me like it's just laziness.
They could have at least thrown in some more facial, hairstyle, and skin color customization.
I'm glad that for once, though, in a game like this, the "healer" is not a female.
That's a usual MMO/RPG stereotype that the support character be a girl.
You also can't really think of this as a "Diablo 2" IMO because it's an MMORPG and Diablo 2 is an RPG with online features.
Also, no juggling in Rakion? You obviously haven't played.
Anyway, guys... looking at this game, I think it's just a crappy F2P version of Phantasy Star Universe, without the in-depth character creation process and customization.
This similarity was also noted in Steparus' review of the game.
So, yeah...
. I can tell Dragon's Nest'd get borin though
