I recently went on another gaming adventure a few days ago testing out ChangYou's new CryEngine3 Action MMORPG God Slayer Online. The game is still in the early Closed Beta phases so things might be a little off in my gameplay videos below. The beta only had three playable characters with limited customization and gender locked features. Having played so many gender locked games, I didn't mind at all. The combat stayed true to the whole Action MMORPG genre. The gameplay controls felt a bit like Vindictus or Mabinogi Heroes. You're given an option on what kind of playstyle suits you the most. For example, WASD keys to control the direction of your attacks or the alternative TPS/FPS mode where your character attacks targets in the direction he or she is facing. You can also manually evade attacks by dashing around or using the shift key to block with the sword. {youtube}https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH8E8BNS6D0{/youtube} For some reason, the combat style of this character reminded me … [Read more...] about STEPARU News, Reviews, Previews & Information for Foreign Games God Slayer Online CryEngine3 Action MMORPG First Look

Here's an easy question for you all, but I hope it has some really cool implications. What's your favorite MMORPG race and why?  It can be a current MMORPG you're playing, or one from 20+ years ago. You can pick something as straight forward as 'Human' or obscure as a Wookie. They key is to tell us all WHY you're picking that race to be your absolute favorite MMORPG race of all time. Maybe you like that race because of its special bonus abilities or the starting stats were the best combination for your class. Maybe you simply liked it because it was super unique or just looked really cool. For me, this question caused me to reflect pretty hard. Cosmetically, I love the small races. Gnomes, Lurikeens, Dwarves, Taru Taru, Halflings, Hobbits, Kobolds, you name it. If it's small, I love it. Why? I think it has something to do with their body body proportions and how they usually look so dang cute. But then when I think about lore, I love the Orcs from Warcraft. That story and how it … [Read more...] about What’s Your Favorite MMORPG Race and Why?

0 Yesterday I asked what your favorite MMORPG race was and why, so today I’m going to ask you about MMORPG classes. Instead of asking you to pick just one overall favorite, I’ll let you pick a few classes  you think are really cool, unique, or awesome enough in their design/idea that you think of them as a favorite . When you list a class, I want you to explain why and share a little about that class. Many of us may have never tried the classes you think are cool, or even played the games they’re from. Here are a few of my favorites: Animist – Dark Age of Camelot Animists are a pet class around a plant-like affinity. Animists summon turret-like mushroom pets that were a little bit of set-it-and-forget-it. I remember setting up a little forest of mushrooms that did varying things like slow the enemy, aoe, and could act like an awesome trap in PvP. There were also bomb-like pets that would go out and explode.  Very satisfying pet class. Druid – … [Read more...] about What’s Your Favorite MMORPG Class?

The Pantheon devs tweeted again asking another great question. This time they're eliciting responses about what's the most important part of a community. And again, the responses are across the board with respect to how people are interpreting the question. Some of the answers in reply to the tweet are things like: Welcoming to newcomers Open-mindedness A lack of elitism GM sponsored events Communication with the devs All good answers, and there are plenty more. I think the most important part of a MMORPG community has to be 'a reason for one to exist' and equally important are the in-game tools and mechanics to encourage community interactions. If people don't have to get to know each other, they won't. If players don't have to play together, they won't. (Note: That doesn't mean grouping only. I can feel like I'm playing with other people even when I solo.) If the MMORPG doesn't have in-game mechanics to bring players to together, then they'll drift apart.  Community is … [Read more...] about What is the Most Important Part of a MMORPG Community?

Before I get into anything, I would like to inform you guys that this list will be a continuation to our previous Top free to play MMORPG list, and therefore none of the games listed there will be found in this list, thus it being (Part 2)! With that out of the way, I’ll be talking to you guys about what I believe are The Best Free To Play MMORPGs (discluding the previously mentioned MMOs.) One of the very few superhero MMORPGs on the market. Although admittedly not as good in my opinion gameplay-wise, Champions Online is nevertheless an incredibly entertaining MMORPG. It has a lesser focus on story elements and a larger emphasis on freedom to do what you want and create what you want than its competitor, DC Universe Online. I am not comparing the two, simply stating that the reason Champions Online is on this list is because of the freedom the game gives you and the quirky style of game it is. From what we’ve seen it doesn’t take itself seriously. And that … [Read more...] about The Best Free To Play MMORPGs Of 2017
