I am interested in joining this game.  But I really want to know what people think about this game before downloading the client.  Here’s a brief information about the game:

 

This game is a 2D MMORPG developed by CDC.  The game has just started their open beta in my country yesterday.  I still don’t know about the background story yet.  However, it is set on a magical academy where your character building his or her ability through series of mini quest.  The characters are evolving by age, so their appearance will also be changed during the gameplay.  4 type of characters are currently available.  Fighter, Archer, Mage, and Cleric.

 

As far as I know: Warriors can use daggers, 1h sword, 2h sword, 2h axe, 1h mace, dual blades, spears, shields.  Archers can use daggers, bows, crossbows, guns.  Mages can use daggers, books(range), staffs.  Clerics can use clubs, staffs, cross.

There will be Alchemy Magical skill available for every character, and with this skill we can produce our own equipment using certain recipe.  I like the way they provide the character pic when you change your equipment.

 

 

When I looked at the screenshot, it’s kinda remind me of Talesweaver, a great 2D game from Nexon but never been brought internationally, and a little bit like Maple Story.  Well the character type is different, and somehow I still felt that Talesweaver is cuter, but the environment is giving me that feeling.  Besides, Talesweaver is a 2D game with 3D environment (although you can not rotate your camera angle like RO), while this game is a 2D game with a semi 2D side-scrolling environment.

 

 

 

There are some in game feature that draw my attention.

Besides the age, the weather in the game will affect your character.  For example: snow will slow down your movement, while raining will slow down your recovery.

Another thing is pet.  They can evolve up to 10 times depending on how you take care of them!

 

 

I was mentioning about how this game remind me a little bit like Maple Story, becuz I found that they express the emoticon at the character’s faces.

 

 

My guess so far, that if they try to combine room made mini quest type with MMORPG, they will succeed.  I just know that Yogurting is not operating anymore in Korea, because Neowiz (Yogurting’s publisher) just providing room made RPG instead of combining it also with the vast world of MMORPG.  The reason why I compare this game with Yogurting is because they have the same background theme, a school.  Although Yogurting is giving us a very cute 3D cell shading character, I still have hope for this game.  Moreover, I like anime type character very much ^^.

 

So if any of you has the information about this game, please let me know.  Really looking forward for your input, or even guide if you already had one.
