A lot of MMO's are accused of being clones or rip offs of more successful games. Secret of the Sostice,SoS, has been condemed to the same title. Upon looking at screen shots,Ragnarok Online will immedietely come to mind. I decided to give it try and see if the negative speculations were just.

   Similarities: art style,craftable costume pieces, and the healers name's are alcolytes.

   I played this game all day and truthfully,those are the only similarities. Alcolyte's aren't an RO specific name and other games have included different ways of obtaining costume items.(Holic) Therefore, the only real similarity is art style. It's nothing worth fussing about,and doesn't make it a rip off.

   I have even read on MMO site that the extensive job tree was a rip off RO. This is laughable to me, as I think it's a feature everyone wants in games anyway. One or two advanced job changes are boring,and a few other MMOs have satisfied this demand. Once again, not an RO rip off.

   So let's begin to highlight all the features I've taken a liking to in this game.

   A decent number of quests are present in at least the earlier levels of this game. One thing I noticed about it is the level requirements are not accurate. Quests at level 16 for example,are more appropiate to someone a few levels higher. If you keep that in mind,it doesn't really make it bad thing. Quests are completed as you're grinding,and the drop rate may seem a bit low,but since you'll be leveling in the area for a couple levels...it will be completed.

   Each map also has several different types of mobs. This is really pleasing to me,as I don't like hunting one specific mob at a time.

   Another thing I noticed is all the different types of crafting material that dropped just in the first few maps! There was quiet a huge variety of them,telling me that crafting in this game will be much more detailed and I'm very anxious!

   All in all this game has a fun and cute feeling. The mounts are cute,the NPCs are loveable, it's fun to craft costume items...maybe it will become repetitive like every other f2p game in existance...but for right now, I'm really enjoying it! Please don't let other's opinions steer you away from this game.Trust me,it's worth a shot.
