Well, I thought I'd never EVER get sucked into trying an MMO ever again...

But here I am checking one out and fairly enjoying it. It's got nice animeish sprites (kinda look like the ones that use to be on the MSF mainpage! O_o ) Though there are more female characters to choose from then male.

It's patched rather... hastly into english so some of it's dialoge is rather ENGRISH, but I've been able to deal with that so far.

It's a rather interesting game that starts you off choosing an element. Each element will give your character different skills/spells as you level up. In addition each skill you use goes up in proficiency causing the skill to eventually Max and gain you a new-more powerfull version of said skill.

Which skills and spells you get depend on where you distribute your stats.

The reason I'm actually into it is because I love how they handle the battle system.

Battles work with you seeing (usually, the game can lag and render em invisable) monsters walking around. Touch one and it's off to battle. The screen then switches to a side view battle, much like in classic Final Fantasy. You have a 'wheel' around your character that are your actions. Skill, attack, Defend, item, Run, Capture, Auto.

(Capture allows you to capture the monster as a pet. :P)

The way battles work for other people. When you enter a battle to others all they see is a dust cloud with your limbs failing about out of it. Much like in classic cartoons. :P

If you wish you can join the battle and help the person out. So far I've see teams of about four party members walking around at one time. This includes your pet/compainion. An NPC you get to help you out in battles. So you can have eight people in a battle at one time.

Also at random times you will 'team attack' with you're NPC or friend in battle. So you'll both run out and attack at the same time dealing even MORE damage then usual. (I love it when this happens)

Exp. is given to whoever attacks. So if you don't attack, you gain nothing.

Another neat thing is an early quest gives you a Tent that you can litterly set up about ANYWHERE. While inside the tent you can't be attacked. Allowing you to rest up and regain hit points and such. (if your sitting. Sitting regenerates your stuff)

You can also make things while in your tent that'll help you out later. I'm trying for a tub, because while in one you're HP/SP regains three times as fast.

You can ride your pets too. So if you see a monster you thing would be awsome to ride around on. Capture it and you can.

So far I'm having fun, and like I put in the topic the game is absolutly free to play. You just have to install it.

If anyone decides to check it out. I usually run around on the Taurus 2 server. The name's 'Garath' :P

I don't think you can send me mail or anything, but you can whisper me in the game if you know my name. (which I just told you) So you may get a hold of me that way. Or you can send me a PM via this game and tell me who you are so I can keep an eye out for ya! ^_^

Again, I curse you. I decided to try it out and played until I reached level 10. ;/ I haven't been all that successful making myself equipment (since there's a limited amount in the shops that suck), and it's a bummer that I can't find a comprehensive list of compounds that can be made, or even a comprehensive of equipment so I know that what I'm interested in is for a fighter and not a mage. -_-

Name's Nikkou, of course. Unless you mean account name... In which case it would be Nekkid1. It seems that Nikkou is catching on, because the name's taken more often than not these days.
