    your gonna end up not liking it.

    when i was playing it most people (including me) would just go in a mid level area and alttab out.

    come back a few hours later and your a few levels higher.

    its rediculous.
    the game could of been great but they messed up.

    SOTNW. I like the gameplay. and actually there is 41 unique characters + 6 basic characters u can recruit into ur team. Best graphic, and music.

    Weakness: many afk players, so the community/chat is pretty dead. It's like playing single player RPG.



    It's very grindy tho, otherwise it won't be called MMORPG :P


    EDIT: and Shaiya. The game is pretty short. the world is also pretty small. I don't like the skill and the leveling/grinding style.

    I don't know, I'd say SOTNW if you like to solo and Shaiya if you want a more standard grinder with race war.

    I would prefer SOTNW than Shaiya.

    I played Shaiya for like 10-15 minutes. I got bored. lol.

    SOTNW, I stayed for months (The singapore version that is when it was F2P, then P2P for months, and a few days ago it changed to F2P). I wonder if my character are still teh same lvl. hmm..

    if you afk the whole time in SotNW/GE you probably wont have enough cash to buy equips, so afking is only when you spend some REAL cash in it (either legal and illegal, if you get what i mean)

    SOTNW by far. Shaiya is cool and all but if had to make a choice I would go with SOTNW. Your choice on how you want your gameplay to be.

    Looks like I'm sticking with SotNW then. I don't mind soloing, usually I prefer it, so AFKer's don't bother me. Its pretty fun so far, I have 3 of my guys up to level 13, and 2 UPC's in my common room or w/e its called.

    Thanks guys
