Last May 24, Mythos Global released its latest and biggest content update so far. The update included an increase of level cap from 51 to 60, a new zone called Land of the Dead, several new dungeons, and tons of new monsters and loots.

I've been playing Mythos Global ever since its OBT and I'm still playing it until now. Like many Mythos players, I've also been waiting for this update for quite some time. As such, here are some overview of the new stuff implemented with the latest patch.

First is the new area called Land of the Dead. This area is very different from the previous three zones of Mythos. The first one being very vibrant and green with all the lush forests. The second is orangey with all the sandy deserts and rocky mountains. The third one is a cold snowy terrain. Land of the Dead is much darker and lurks with hideous undead and other deformed creatures.

Next are the dungeons. From level 1 to 51, I rarely died inside dungeons. If ever I die, it's most likely becaus

I just saw this event in Dragon Nest SEA giving a +11 to +14 vortex code if you buy 20 stacks of x10 Altea Boxes (total of 200 Altea Boxes). For those who are not playing Dragon Nest, Altea Box is the equivalent of other MMO's random box where you get random items. Most of these are less than the worth of the box, but there is a small chance where you can acquire an extremely expensive item.

Anyway, this blog is not about the box, but about this event:

A stack of 10 Altea's box cost 9000 CC. As such, 20 stacks of that would be 180,000CC. Regardless of the country's currency, this is definitely a relatively huge cost just to get the free vortex code.

To give you a further background of what I'm going to talk about, you may want to scan some of the comments in their forum: 

MMORPGs usually consist of PVE (battle with AI mobs) and PVP (battle with other players). When you enter into battle, which should be the most important factor to consider? Before I start the discussion, let me first define the three factors for clarity.

Gears

Gears are the weapons and equipment that you acquire by buying in auction houses and cash shop, crafting using materials, or looting from monsters and treasure chests. A good example of MMORPG using this model is... well... many point-and-click MMORPGs in which the one with the most upgraded gear wins the battle.

Strategy

By strategy, I mean careful planning and doing things in order to win a battle. This means efficient usage of skills, carefully planned moves, anticipation of the enemy's next m

As many Dragon Nest players may already know, DN SEA has finally released the fifth and newest character class called the Academic. This is not an in-depth guide since my Academic is only at level 18. This is just a short list of pros and cons of the newest class for those who are interested to come back to play the game as an academic.

Overview

The Academic is a ranged character who uses either a cannon that does physical damage or a bubble gun (gun not gum) that does magic damage. Besides the damage type difference, a cannon has longer range than the bubble gun but fires at a slower rate. The range of the gun is a little shorter but has a very quick rate of fire.

This cute little girl can choose two specializations. The first one is called the Engineer with lots of physical skills. The

As gamers, we look at a lot of factors that help us decide whether or not to play a certain MMORPG. Since many developers want a large share of the market, they try their best to make a game that can satisfy a lot of players. Unfortunately, players have different preferences. Trying to get everyone will result to mediocre games. As such, it is a matter of choosing the right market of players (usually the most profitable market, which may inadvertently leave out some of the minority groups), and being able to give the best to those selected players.

The reason why no single game can satisfy everyone is that even if a developer makes a game with the nicest graphics, most exciting combat, most interesting story, there are always players who will look for the opposite of that. I will ca

I guess MMOSITE is partly to blame for this one because they had a banner ad of Sword Girls a few weeks ago. Haha. Just kidding. Anyway, I tried this game because I like card games. I played Magic: The Gathering (the real cards) before and I really liked it. Anyway, I tried Sword Girls because it's a card game.

The very first thing about the game is that it is browser-based. This means that there's no need to download, install, and/or uninstall this game.

First and foremost, you have to choose a character when you start the game. Initially, there are four types available. Each type has different specializations. One specializes on direct hits, another one specializes on strengthening your followers, while the other specializes on debuffing your enemies. Choose according to w

Different things have various life phases. A novel or short story, for example, generally follow five phases as shown in the image below.

An MMORPG too, has different phases. (NOTE: This is not official. I just made this according to what I have observed about the industry) It starts out with the building of hype. The game isn't out yet, but the company is doing its best to get publicity. In this phase, we see trailer videos, character information, etc. This is where players build expectations about the game.

The next phase can be its CBT, OBT, or launch. Once the game is opened, thousands of players will rush to log-in. The first few days of the game is probably the peak of any game. This is generally true, except on special occasions when the game slowly gains popularity on

Hello everyone!

A lot of games have wallpapers featuring the different characters and environments of the game. Some of them are so beautiful, it's hard to choose what to use on your desktop. Anyway, here are my top 5 MMORPG wallpapers. You can post your personal favorite wallpaper in the comments section below. :)

5. Blade and Soul

On the fifth spot is Blade and Soul's Lyn wallpaper. I like this wallpaper primarily because the female Lyn is soooo cute!

4. Dragon Nest

I like the game and I like the characters because they are cute and have distinct personalities. The wallpaper shows the different classes (Archer ftw!), the cool-looking Velskud, and the beautiful Argenta.

3. Atlantica Online

Besides the fact that this is my favorite MMORPG, I also like this wallpaper because of th

It is usual for us to see brands or franchises being used in different forms of media. The most common is probably using a popular novel and turning it into a movie (although Hollywood likes to alter some of the details). Some game titles are also used and turned into movies. One of the rarer instances is when a game is made into a novel.

This is the case in Mythos Global. Someone is actually painstakingly making a fan-fic or a novel based on the lore of the game. I'm actually reading it during the maintenance period of Mythos Global. The chapters are quite short but they are definitely very interesting and will make you long for the next chapter. Anyway, the novel is currently in Chapter 7. I wonder until how many chapters he has prepared. If you want to read, just click the
