Ehhh
Another Asian MMO :p, At least the website looks a bit better then the rest
Do you consider WoW to be just another asian MMO? If not, then I suggest you try PW before you judge it.
I would love to try it but I've downloaded the client three times and every time the archive was corrupted. I've given up now.
Zorvan YOU HAVE NO IDEA.... Before WoW there ware a lot of MMO's out there with scattered features, Blizzard just collected some good features and installed them under a new name with powerfull audience, and then tuned it a little. Nothing of what is WoW today is because of their innovative way of thinking but because of Blizzard's reputation and past games. But of course how can i contradict you since there are 10 Million players who think otherwise, most of them didn't even know that MMO's existed before that.
Yes i consider WoW the typical Asian MMO, i considered it the same since Day 1 and now it looks more then even like other Asian games, as more games came a long.
Perfect World developers said it themselves : "This is going to be some sort of F2p WoW version".
Just saying my point and hope it won't bother anyone.
My point was PW is just like WoW, so if he likes WoW, he'll like PW; if he don't, he won't.
Tryed PW 2 days. The PvE feels very cheap, kill 10 mobs, kill 10 mobs, kill 20 mobs, kill 10, etc
WoW ( I must be fair ) has much more variety then PW, serieusly its killing 10 mobs, next quest kill 10 mobs, its only killing 10 or 20 mobs for more then the first 80 quests :D
Also kesleri, I wanna know from who WoW copied the fact that the quests are always different and gameplay wise nicely done :)
I have played my share of mmorpgs so I am very glad I can compare :)
