Basic Overview From The Site:

Archlord - Set in the world of Chantra, this game is an epic fantasy mix, featuring lush in game graphics and a soft sensual soundtrack brilliantly scored by the London Symphony Orchestra. ArchLord brings together all the elements that make MMOs so enjoyable but with a unique hook, the chance to rule the in game world and with it receive a range of benefits.

The world of Chantra is designed around the five elements, fire, spirit, earth, water and air providing all the areas with very unique and distinctive looks. As you move through the world from the dark expanses of the Orc home world through to the bright, light marble of the human world you will find yourself constantly drawn into to this lush and vivid environment.

Players are able to play as one of three unique races including Humans, Moon Elf’s and Orcs and within each race they will be able to choose from one of eight different classes depending on their chosen race. Each of these classes will have a host of unique features that players will need to master in order to become true masters of their class, this will present a challenge to both new and seasoned players alike.

One of the most appealing features is it’s ability to accommodate both the hardcore PvP fan as well as those looking for more solo action in a quest based game. Players will find themselves able to take part in massive real time battles between guilds accommodating hundreds of players. Or for those that wish to engage in more solo based play they will be able to partake in an extensive range of quests to explore the world and level their skills.

There is more to ArchLord than just the above, there are many features of the game that you really must experience first hand to get a feel for the depth and quality that this game offers. ArchLord has something for everyone, but do you have what it takes to become the ArchLord?

Now, this game is pretty popular, so it doesn't really need much in-depth information, but I decided to write this for people who want to try it out. The game, basically, is a grindfest. Some quests actually give LESS exp than a monster kill, so questing is basically a waste of time. There's no gender change, so basically, if you're a guy, and you want to be a wizard, you have to be a woman. (So, be careful who you talk to for those e-daters.) Secondly, the game doesn't have a healer class, which is why they make monsters drop health potions about 99.9% of the time; You can literally have about 500 health potions in a matter of hours which help tremendously, but it's just a little too much. The PvP isn't really anything to look at because it's about the same as any other game.

The game is basically: Party --> Kill --> Heal --> Repeat

Now, it's time for my ratings.

Gameplay: 3/10 - Seriously, I know a lot of work was probably put into the game, but all you can do is grind and party, which is boring after the first 2 hours. PvP is pretty simple, as well.

Sound: 4/10 - Lot's of repetitive footsteps, music is alright, but nothing special.

Community: 7/10 - From most of the people I've met, the community seems pretty nice, I could be wrong, though.

Graphics: 7.5/10 - The graphics are semi-good, I've seen worse, and I've seen better.

Overall: 5/10 - Needs major improvement on the things you can actually do, because that's one of the top reasons on why people play MMORPG's, on the amount of content it has, and Archlord certainly needs to improve on that.

I hope you enjoyed this review. Until next blog!

P.S. - Thanks to cesarsuki for seeing the layout of his blogs, I decided to make a layout sort of similar to that. :)
P.S.S. - Sorry about this review being a little short, but Archlord doesn't have that much to review about.
