Phenominal! Revolutionary!
Well as you all know, the hype for this game was INSANE!
Like it was huge! But you cant really trust the hype, like look at
Hellgate:London. It got really hyped up and didnt fit expectations.
This game, is not like that! It far surpasses the hype!
After waiting like forever and doing beta this is my review for this game:
This game is Revolutionary Amazing!
I was hyped up for this game since early 2006 and expected it to be good but i was extremely surprised.
Here is a brief list of features in this game, reading it isn't as fun as playing it!
Amazing new combat system!
Great community!
Breathtaking graphics!
Remarkable gameplay!
Unique classes!
Fun quests!
Amazing Spells!
Awesome Abilities!
3D Environment, Climb, Jump, Swim, etc!
Large Selection Of Cool Weapons And Armour!
Much Much Much More!
To all potential players remember this:
Need a good PC to run it
Not to fun until level 4+
Takes a couple hours to understand
Truth be told when i started it off in early access i was disappointed at start. I didnt really understand everything, and didnt know what to do. I played anyways to give it a chance but then after 20 minutes i started having the time of my life! It was unbelievable!
Features (A Little More In depth):
- Unique fun character classes! You can pick from a barbarian that slashed peoples heads off to a caster who dose unbelievable things!
- Then you customize your chaircter in so many ways it makes it very unique and interesting. There are so many options of customizing every little hair, skin feature, size, tattoos that you will never see a duplicate running around
- Unlike alot of MMOs, when you start its extremely boring. It will take you around 20 minutes to get to level 4 and then you will have a ton of bloody spells, cool weapons and armor and can start playing the game for real!
- Unlike alot of awesome MMOs where you level, you get nothing. After you level 10 levels you unlock one thing. BOOOO. In AOC, every level unlocks cool weapons, armor, spell points and ability points. Most the times you level up you even unlock awesome spells and awesome abilities
- The graphics for this game are just insane, you can relax in your chair and stare at it for hours
- It is an M Game to the majority of the people are adult or late teen. I found that this is one of the best community i have ever met! Very mature people, willing to offer help and be friends.
- AoC Combat......Revolutionary, Amazing, Awesome, Great!
Instead of auto-attacking you go up to them and have 3 positions to attack from plus spells that add on to it so you actually hack there head off or hack at them while blood flies everywhere. I cannot describe it with mentioning you must try it out!
- The gameplay in this game never gets boring! You always have a million and one things to do that are very fun, always getting new awesome weapons and armor, talking to fun people and doing fun things!
- The quests are very fun, instead of looking through a big city for a person or having to run around you have to kill alot of cool monsters, beat dungeons, etc.
- The Spells and Abilities are very bloody, beautiful and result in some uber pownage! They cause alot of damage and make blood fly everywhere. You can have 7 spells equipped and change them wherever. They are amazing.
- 3D Environment is purely awesome. Instead of running around you can climb, jump of cliffs and swim! Swimming is quite fun and the jumping/climbing saves alot of time and is fun to do.
- Weapons and Armour in this game are very unique, great looking and pown! You normally upgrade your armor by just killing things and getting great drops instead of boring yourself to death and buying a weapon in alot of MMOs
Much Much More!
I could write a 90000 page review on how awesome this game is but i want 2 get back 2 playing it so i will close with these few statements
- It is an extremely bloody violent game with alot of quests and fun objectives to do. You get alot of awesome armor, weapons and spells for basic gameplay. Money doesn't mean much in this game till you get to a high level so you don't need to worry about boring yourself to death. After lvl 50 you can use mounts and other extremely fun things but you can use more things every level. It is extremely beautiful and fun to play
Overall Statement = Play It!
If you need any help in the game, fell free to contact me, my name in the game is Cartman
My rating scale depends on the platform and genre its on. Since PC has much more awesome games on it, i mark much harder on it so a 80% on PC would mean its great compared to the hundreds of other awesome PC games of that genre, and might be better than a 98% of consoles. A great game is a great game, on the system. I like to keepy my reviews short and sweet, so i wont bore you and get to the point. If theres an official review out on Giant Bomb, you should definately read it because they are the best reviewers in the worlds! =D
