I will start with what Archlord is not.

Archlord is not a holy trinity game.  There are no healers or buffers.  In fact there is not a single skill in this entire game that targets an ally.  All healing is handled with self heal skills and automatic potion usage.

 

Archlord is not stable.  20% of the time when you interact with an NPC you will crash.  Every time a castle siege starts the server boots about 50% of the people logged on (including people participating in the siege).

 

Archlord has no story line.  There is no epic tale of hero's and villains for you here.

 

Archlord is not a team play kind of game.  You will be soloing.  The only reason you will group is for automatic looting.  There is no reason to do anything in a group, and doing so will actually HURT you loot and you XP.

Now lets cover what it is.

It has the best graphics of any free mmo by miles and miles.

It is the best free grind game out there.  If you looking for a solo grind game this is bar none the best.

The community system is based entirley around pvp.  Archlord has systems to handle hostile and allied guilds. 

Equipment customization is pretty decent.  The game provides different kinds of stones for different kinds of equipment in spades, and everything you can wear is socketed.

All in all, a great diversion, but after spending a good ammount of money in the CC shop and reaching level 44 on the new server evenguarda, I find myself looking for something a bit more involved.
