Rohan online is the latest game released by YNK Interactive, who have also released Seal Online. The game has just began its closed beta development stage on March 17th, and will finish on March 26th.

So far from playing the game i like what i see. There is some distinct features in this game that alot of people will like. There are also a few that i think the game could of improved on. I'll start with the bad things since there are less.

Movement Yes, this game does offer WASD movement, but the mouse movement is not very good. You need to hold down both mouse buttons to move with the mouse, which does feel a bit funny This does not seem so bad at first, but once you start to PvP you will notice it. Running with WASD and then having to press the 1~9 keys to use skills while clicking with the mouse gets hard. A lot of the time i want to double-click the monster then press my 1 key to use a skill. When I do it in this game it just moves the camera. Now becuase of a new patch and the complaints YNK got you are able to move with the point and click.
Layout The layout of the game is very crowded. They made all the menues and chats way to big. They have one chat box on the left for player chats and one on the right for system messages. Both of these are HUGE. What makes things worse is under the player chat box is your very HUGE menu. Right next to that is a HUGE expandable quick slot. When you expand it overlaps the system message box on the righ, already overlapping the right message box is another HUGE menu. I don鈥檛 understand why they need to much menus.

Now lets get into the good parts of the game...

Fishing Yes, this game offers fishing. This games fishing is similar to the fishing in 2moon. The main differences are that you need to use your weapons and armor as bait. You can get a rod when you finish the tutorial or buy one via NPC for 500 of the games gold. When you buy one you need to go to the fishing are via NPC. Once inside, click on the rod as you stand next to the water, double-click an armor or weapon and press start. A green square will move around and a little pointer, the closer the pointer to the green square is the better the fish cought will be. When you catch a fish you are able to open it up and get a special prize.

Forging Here you are able to forge weapons and armor. What鈥檚 so special about this games forging? Well nothing really. you are able to use old weapons that you found or bought to make new ones. When you open the forging screen via Forging NPC, you can select which weapon or armor you want. Drag your mouse over it and it will tell you what old armor or weapon you need to be able to forge the new one. Forged weapons are the in-between weapons. you are able to buy weapons every few levels, and the ones you forge are in-between those few level and have special stats. In addition you can get special items that will add stats to forged weapons and ones that will help with the forging. If you don鈥檛 get those items when you forge and fail you will lose the two weapons you forged with.

And this is the screen you want to see after you forge

Level refining This game offers a feature like no other. Imagine you just forged a level 70 weapon and your level 67. I bet you just can't wait to use it can you? This game offers a level refining feature where you can lower the requirement of the weapon by a maximum of three levels. With this feature you are also able to lower the stat requirement of that weapon as well. This sounds awesome right? I warn you though, fail at level refine the weapons requirement will go up by the amount you tried to lower. This is not good for a high level weapon that you have been waiting to use.

below is the warning you get

Stats This game has a wide range of status points to you to add.
Strength Affects your melee attack and weight
Intelligence Affects magic attack, defense, overall resistance
Psyche Affects magic resistance and mana
Vitality Affects health and physical defense
Agility Affects range attack and accuracy
Dexterity Affects envision

The last thing I wanna mention is this M.Kill bonus This bonus increases the amount of exp you gain by a percentage every 20 kills you get. Once it reaches a certain amount it will then reset and start over.

Hoped my little closed beta review was informative and will wanna make you play open beta. And if this still does not convince you here are some game play videos.

Hm I got access to the cb too. I tried every class and I must say the dekan are pretty unique and standing out of the rest ,pretty interesting with staffs that can dissconect in two swords and stuff ,and the knight's fighting style is pretty nice too but I still plan on playing dhan assassin :P
