is an enchanting world full of genuine, personalized adventure, and it only took four incarnations as a cat girl archer for me to realize that.has been recommended to me time after time by so many different people, especially for its story. The only caveat they would give is that it takes a decent amount of hours for that story to pick up.
I barely got anywhere. I named my character T’ina Fey and was aided with eager guidance from online guides and my friends . But all of that ultimately couldn’t stop my fantasy from fading away due to me getting overwhelmed by the boatload of systems I needed to understand within that restrictive, timed free trial I was playing.
This is the first time that an MMORPG’s routine and loop is clicking with me. I’m digging how expansive the world is and how cheesy this fantasy dialogue can get at points. I’ll slay a giant ladybug and the townspeople will butter me up with some ye olde flattery. It’s hilarious. I can finally fall into the story too, and pay attention without having to speedread against an invisible timer I know is ticking away.
this time around. While I was mindlessly lost and walking to the calming background music, I started paying attention to other users who were completing their quests, baking bread, and roleplaying on the street, and I felt something I’d never felt before. I was connected to an ecosystem of players, such an MMORPG-specific feeling of community that I’d never known in my multiplayer experiences. Each server you join is a unique, living digital world powered by the players within it.
