This is a game that just went Open Beta recently supposedly, I just started playing it myself. I must say it's quite a fun and interesting game, the whole feel of it and the way it runs, in my opinion, makes it a very damned good MMO (above those of WoW and all, ).
Aside from the fact it's open beta it's running pretty good so far. You can form up to a team of three characters that you make yourself and control them all in combat and the sort. It's a really fun game with a really nice atmosphere. Anyone else play? I play on Vespanola on Channel 3.

I might give SOTNW a shot, but what will draw me in faster is basically the same thing that WoW drew me in with: people I know play it. MMOs tend to be more enjoyable when you aren't sufferin-...I mean, playing alone.

I'm usually not into MMORPGs, but that actually looks pretty cool *Goes to download*

Well, the monster spawn rate is pretty damn fast. For example in one of the dungeons an entire area could be covered in a variety of monsters and if you don't know how to handle yourself you'll be overpowered in no time.otakud00d wrote:How bad is the grind in this game? Most Korean MMO's tend to have incredibly tedious grinds.
EXP raises fairly decently depending on the level of monster you kill. While having three characters makes it easier to level up (as EXP is shared between the three and you have three people fighting a horde of monsters), it's harder because you have to look after and heal three people continuously. That's why I have a scout in my party, that healing spell really comes in handy over consumable potions.
