Ham_Samich writes: It's definitely not realistic. You can't swing a sword through something without cutting it into pieces. And the special effects is nothing but rediculous cartoon/commic book bologna. Fri Apr 04 2008 9:46PM

Midaveg writes: @Ham_Samich Games are meant to be unrealistic. @malterik why dislike button smashing? you prefer target - hit - afk? Fri Apr 04 2008 11:29PM

xeniar writes: Ham_Samich, i dont know much mmo's where you Phisicly (viewable) massacre your targets.. your tripping m8... Sat Apr 05 2008 9:36AM

Baldavier writes: This game looks really exciting and more fast paced any mmorpgs I have played. This video is the first I have seen of it and I'm downloading it now! Sat Apr 05 2008 10:40AM

Cortez992 writes: @Ham_Samich: One thing about MMORPGs is that they are RPGs. Have you ever played an RPG where, after one attack, the enemy is mangled and dies? Sat Apr 05 2008 12:08PM

xeniar writes: @ Cortez992 actually there is 1 but.. i dont count it as a MMORPG... also the monster doesnt really die at a hit but you cut of Tails and Wings and stuff.. and they get all messed up. monster hunter. Sat Apr 05 2008 12:31PM

Aguitha writes: Look like another chinese grind fest with fast pace combat. Sat Apr 05 2008 1:23PM

Junsai writes: @Aguitha Its not a grindfest actually and its quite fast paced. The combat is fast pace and so is the leveling. Thers 160 or 170 lvls in the game and even at 130 the lvling is quite quick compared to many other mmorpgs. Sat Apr 05 2008 4:09PM

lekiz writes: I played this a while back in the Open Beta, when it was still open to NA players. I actually enjoyed it, but I didn't really see myself playing it longterm. And plus, the fact that halfway through the OB, they kicked the NA players out. Oh well, it was a good time waster at the time. I wouldn't play it now in this current time... Sat Apr 05 2008 7:28PM

Douhk writes: I myself don't particularly like this game. Tried it out and got bored of it fairly quickly, then again I'm more of a P2P guy than F2P... if you play F2P's often this is probably one of the best you can find. Anyways, after getting off subject lol... what I meant to ask in the first place was if ANYONE knew where exactly I could find this song? Or at least the name of it? It's quite snazzy indeed. Sat Apr 05 2008 11:59PM

Nevernude writes: @Douhk - it's Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" from the ballet "The Nutcracker". I have no idea who did this version, however. Sun Apr 06 2008 7:13AM

millux writes: It was probably performed by somebody on a keyboard who wanted to sound like Trans-Siberian Railroad. I guess it could be them, but it isn't quite as impressive as I remember them. Either way, if you liked the music, look up that group. Sun Apr 06 2008 8:04AM

Douhk writes: heh... well I just decided it would probably just be easier to extract the music from downloading the WMP. @ nevernude and millux - thx for the info! Sun Apr 06 2008 12:18PM

Fion writes: If I want a game that looks like this, I'll go buy a PS2. Seriously, it does look good for that 'style' of game. But that style of game is a big turn off. Sun Apr 06 2008 2:22PM

Fion writes: I like the music though lol. Sun Apr 06 2008 2:22PM

nitrouzzz writes: Well the most of songs ingame are created by Novasonic - korean rock band, though i haven't heard this one before, nor have i succeeded in finding it. Mon Apr 07 2008 2:38PM

Jirel writes: Fion - what's wrong with the style of the game? Are you saying you don't like the somewhat cartoon feel of the game or what? Just curious. I'm playing it off and on and rather enjoy it but I'm not to a high level yet. Mon Apr 07 2008 3:15PM

Fion writes: Theres nothing 'wrong' with it. It's just my opinion that these types of MMOGs are a waste of 'my' time. They are flashing and same-y and pretty much identical start to finish. Mon Apr 07 2008 7:11PM

Jirel writes: Well, that's more than possible - I'm pretty new to MMOs. :) Mon Apr 07 2008 7:22PM

araczynski writes: i was mildly interested until i heard the music, otherwise perhaps a bit 'over the top' in terms of jumping around and stuff blowing up on screen. for my tastes. Fri Apr 11 2008 9:21AM

Psy700G writes: ya, i just started playin it i love the fast paced action and the comboing affect too, but there are tons of bots, spammers, and hackers they are not doin much about. Fri Apr 11 2008 5:09PM

Ek@n writes: Nah.. not my taste. Sat Apr 12 2008 7:13AM

onlinenow225 writes: Just to add a comment Fion were have you seen games like this? Have any of you seen ANY mmo that has skills look flashy and nicely done? Id like to know them really please tell me ill go and chech those out as well. Btw this games awsome Sun Apr 13 2008 8:57PM

Blas911 writes: Malterik and Ham_smich.. you both are pretty lame. This game is amazing. and about the buttong smashing No its not.. yes at lower levels it can be but when in higher level (and btw its not just about level its SKILL RANK which has ALOT more to do with your characters ability to fight then level does) you acully need to have good combos to kill quickly and efficiently. PVP is also AMAZING, you cant just get on and win. You have to know what your doing. Also HAM its called a GAME did you not know that? So what if you cut your sword through it and its falls to peices thats what one hit kill? So lets just go and kill level 90 mobs and 1 hit them shall we? SWEET HOW FUN! Now if you mean they should fall apart when they die I agree with that but OH WELL! Its still fun.. Leveling stays consistant.. theres team dungeons etc...all in all I think everyonee should try it and REALLY try it now play it for a day get to level 40 and say no way. PUT SOME EFFORT INTO IT! Mon Apr 14 2008 10:13PM

sheonnneo writes: this game is actualy really fun. and im with everyone else... if you 1 hit kill EVERYTHING your gonna quit... because that sucks really bad... no chance to level because monsters would 1 hit you then you would complain *o i cant level i keep dieing* grow up games are never realistic.... Tue Apr 15 2008 4:49AM

afoaa writes: sheonnneo its a question of cultural background. Images like those you see in the video are so extremely flashy and far out that most westerners no longer relate to them and only see them as boring flashes of light instead of a game. Games has to conform to the expectations of their audience for whats exiting and dramatic and the scores of asian games adverticed on this site lately all completely fail to do that for a western audience and thats why you see such negative reactions with people saying same old same old. Look at AoC to see what make a lot of western gamers exited (not all of course) and I bet many asians will think its bland and boring to look at. Its cultural difference. Wed Apr 16 2008 1:21AM

marik_ishtar writes: I'll have to dissagree with Fion. I'd played MANY MMOs, and Cabal is one of a kind. Why? The attack/skill/spell coeography is not only unique, but also really artistic. The special skill you get in level 10 (Combo Move) allow you to chain your attacks without the delays. Of course you need to press the right button at the right time, or the chain will break. Besides that there are a lot of quests in game, making the game playable. And yes there is a certain ammount of grinding. But please can ANYONE of YOU give me an example of a MMO where you don't have to grind? U always have to grind. IF not for levels, it's for gear, or something else... Wed Apr 16 2008 2:03AM

nefermor writes: I like the animations. Too many of the newer games are making nice looking characters but using short animation sequences so they look really choppy when characters and creatures move. This one took the time to make them look good. Wed Apr 16 2008 11:55AM

Jirel writes: Psy700G - one of the things I noticed while playing the game was that IF you report a spammer (especially with a screen shot) Customer Service will X them. Same goes for people violating TOS. You have to report them but when you do, they take care of it (and email you about it) the same day. Wed Apr 16 2008 2:07PM

Kestrian writes: RF Online much? Yet Another Korean WOW wannabe. This should be taken out and shot. Tue Apr 22 2008 6:43AM

NathanMurray writes: I have to say I liked it. I thought it looked good but I haven't played so really I can't say much more than that. I also liked the combos and attacks they looked good but besides that if I had played it I would be able to say alot more about it. Thu Apr 24 2008 6:05AM

NathanMurray writes: Oh and by the way insert "it" between played and so on the first line. Sorry wasn't paying attention to grammer. Thu Apr 24 2008 6:07AM

marik_ishtar writes: Kestrian u suck.. WoW the shitiest game ever.. believe me.. noone wants to copy that crap. And before judging you should try it out. And btw WoW is the one who's copying stuff... Fri Apr 25 2008 1:56AM

Britt writes: @Kestrian, you seem clueless, was WOW your first MMO. WOW is simply a copy every MMO before it a well just like this one, only Blizzard then made WOW easy for stupid people that did not want to commit the time to learn. WOW is only unique because it brought the MMO genera to the lazy masses, for proof of this just look at DAOC the Everquest series or Lineage 2 for that matter. WOW is nothing special just easy to pick up and learn if you call it learning. Sun May 25 2008 1:31AM

riciuariciu writes: the music is out of this world! and the game is fun, but not good enough to make it your main mmo, get's boring after a while....plus the maps are way too small Fri Sep 19 2008 8:35AM
