Got Seduced in DarkEden

After DarkEden was introduced
I was like “OMG, I got seduced by a sexy girl monster in DarEden
I was on my way inside Caligo Dungeon when a boss cursed me with a skill called “Seduction” and bashed  my character to death. Now im level 87 and all I do is grind, I think I can call this a day. It was like 5 hours ago I started a character from a scratch.

5 hours ago before Darkeden was introduced
I really don’t have any idea about what DarkEden is, it was introduced by my friend. I called up Mr. Google and ask him about what DarkEden is, he replied;

DarkEden is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing computer game in isometric projection or 3/4 perspective to be published by a well known game publishing company, Ignited Games. The game has a horror theme based on a war between humans (Slayers), vampires and Ousters in a region called Helea located in a fictional country of Eastern Europe known as Eslania”

A vampire themed MMORPG? Quite interesting. I clicked on the official site of Ignited Games and searched for DarkEden. And saw this Announcement

Am I late for the CBT 2? I tried to registered on Ignited Games site for DarkEden, and guess what? I successfully registered an account. I am ready to play!
And upon playing the game, I build up things on my mind

Gameplay

Darkeden is a hack-and-slash game, which requires the players to kill hordes of monsters in order to make their character progress.

This character progression varies according to the different races. Slayers only have to attack a monster or player to gain experience points. Vampires need to kill a monster or player and drink its blood to gain the full extent of the experience points available. Ousters just have to kill to gain these points. For the same monster, ousters gain more experience points out of them than vampires do even when drinking their blood.

This is an aspect of the balanced system present in the game between the races having each a special advantage: the slayers sell the heads and skulls of monsters (one of the ways to make money in the game) at the highest prices to npc, the vampires drop the best items out of the 3 races, and the ousters get experience points the quickest.

Darkeden is oriented toward player versus player. Except for few safe zones, players can be attacked without any restriction at any moment by other players.

There are three different time periods that regulate the battles in Helea. The first period takes place between 9h and 16h59 which is called day time or full day. During that period, vampires are at their weakest and slayers and ousters have the upper hand on them. The second time period happens between 21h and 4h59 which is night time or full night. It is during that lapse of time that vampires are the most efficient and cause the most damage to their preys. Finally, the periods comprised between 5h - 8h59 and 17h - 20h59 are the transition time during which slayers, ousters and vampires fight on the same ground.
This system offers a very balanced game-play as a vampire can be completely annihilated by day time by a said slayer while when night time comes, this same vampire could dispose of him or her pretty easily (granted they are in the same range of levels). This time effect doesn't concern ousters vs slayers fights but it does with monsters that are considered "vampires".

Players may change the race of their character during their progression. If a human is bitten by a vampire, they will turn into a vampire unless they cure themselves in time. Vampire characters can choose to turn humans by talking to an NPC who will do the work for them.

Rosh Online

Rosh Online is a remake of Karos online a 3D fantasy action MMORPG set in the gorgeously designed, war-torn world of Asmara.  One of the games' most defining features are its varied PvP options, decent/gorgeous graphics, and the unique Fletta progression system which compliments the traditional leveling system. Those looking for a top-notch fantasy MMORPG should look no further; Rosh Online is well worth checking out.

Rosh online has a stunning graphics which is one of the game asset,  lined up with the best hi end graphic game currently in the market
Rosh online offers 4 playable races - Human, Shadow, Seroine and Vaneese
Human,just like other game description.  we all know what human looks like
Shadow, they are the game’s equivalent to dark elfs. 
Seroines, is just a renamed version of the classical light elfs – pointy ears, unique hair color, love for nature..
Vaneese, has a dwarf looks which looks like Kardel if you are playing Dota, except vaneese looks fat and kinda line-eyed character

From left-right:
Mystic, Blader, Bowmistress, Paladin (behind of bowmistress), Gunner, Rogue, Sorceress


Rosh has a limited customization choices for race, class and  gender.  Male is only available on Blader, Rogue and Gunner while Female is exclusively available on Paladin, sorceress, bowmistress and mystic.  So you have no other choice if you wanted to create a Female blader, should be male

1st timer
As a first timer, i found it hard to wait for the loading screen.  its hard when you have a crappy net connection.

as i landed on the character screen selection upon creation, im having fun mouse overring those characters, but reaction of Blader and Rogue looks gay when you mouse over it..LOL
i love mouseoverring Mystics.. LOL
kidding aside, i choose gunner

Game play
game play is quite the same as other hack and slash MMORPG.  With this kind of gameplay, i would recommend to have a quest aside while grinding.  Quest will give additional experience to your character aside from griding, and in this way experience will be boosted.




this review will continue as i go far in game..as for now this is it

Dark Eden CBT ends :(

Im glad that i was a part of the DarkEden CBT that takes place last November 7.  Im really surprised about the action that Ignited games Philippines has made to be able to give the players a good game..Updates are somehow fast, but sometimes slow, i know that they are doing their best to make the game more enjoyable to play.
Greetings Heleans!

We would like to express our sincere thanks for your participation in the DarkEden Closed Beta. Your feedback on everything from bug reports to game suggestions has been duly noted by the DarkEden team in our efforts to deliver a bloody good game.

The Closed Beta testing period will end on November 14, 2011 at 6 pm Pacific Time. We will be taking down the servers and there will be a short cool down period. It will not be long though and we will keep you updated.
*Make sure to visit the official website & forums regularly.
*Join the official Facebook page & invite your friends too!
*Be the first to know when DarkEden returns!

Thank you for your continued support!

The DarkEden Team

DarkEden GMs have done a good work, because they are always on the town to help players who have had experienced errors in the game, but i think they need something, to be recognized by the players.  A simple GM Icon above their head will do.. a bit of color change..Because sometimes, they are taken for granted by some of players and haven't receive a good respect.

And now the game already ended, i wished they will launch their DarkEden OBT sooner.

Darkeden



Overview

DarkEden is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing computer game in isometric projection or 3/4 perspective. It is the first MMORPG in the horror genre. The game revolves around the everlasting war between humans and vampires in a region called Helea located in a fictional country of Eastern Europe known as Eslania.

Darkeden Features:

1. Unique Subject And Genre:
Unlike other MMORPG's, this game takes place in a near-future environment with vampires as its unique subject. A modern horror fantasy environment has been constructed with a mix of classic Asian fantasy, medieval fantasy, and sci-fi.

2. Racial Conflicts Based On Powerful Plot:
You can freely choose one of the two contesting races-vampires, the Slayers. Minor territorial conflicts naturally cause small battles between the races. In the Sacred Ground of Adam, large-scale warfare between the races and siege between guilds take place, with integral elements of strategy.

3. Distinguished Racial Features:
Two systems coexist in Dark Eden by race. Vampires use the level system and the Slayers the skill system. Each race shows its distinct features in its growth system, items, skills, and classes. There are various vehicles or magic to take you across the vast map such as motorcycle, helicopter, bat, warp tunnel, sylph, jam, Horn of the Earth Elemental. Each race has its own strengths and weaknesses. Ousters, the third race of Darkeden, is half human and half vampire with using magic listed below.

4. Time Influence:
The night and day cycle not only affects the vision of the characters or the change in the environments, but has different effects on different races. While vampires are more powerful at night, the Slayers become relatively more powerful during the day.

5. Rank System:
A rank system has been separately implemented from the level system. For every rank you achieve, you can selectively learn rank skills.

6. Diverse Skills:
Vampires can use about 40 different skills and magic. Slayers can use about 100 skills and magic. In addition to this, there are approximately 30 different passive skills according to the rank of the character.

DarkEden Vampire themed MMORPG



DarkEden is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing computer game in isometric projection or 3/4 perspective to be published by a well known game publishing company, Ignited Games. The game has a horror theme based on a war between humans (Slayers), vampires and Ousters in a region called Helea located in a fictional country of Eastern Europe known as Eslania



Story

Vlad Tepes, Elizabeth Bathory, and Gilles de Rais, three of the twelve master vampires, form an alliance and enter the mountainous area of Helea, killing every person they find. They then attempt to awaken Lilith, the mother of all vampires, so that they can have her power. Opening her tomb does not awaken her, but it does create a cloud over Helea that blocks the sun, making Helea a dark eden for vampires.
The human world responded by isolating the region and sending in their militaries to try to rid the area of vampires.
The master vampires soon discover that the only way to gain the power they seek is to search for the pieces of Lilith’s soul, which were scattered about the area of Helea. Unwilling to share this power, they break their alliance and begin a civil war.
Later, an ancient race of people known as the Ousters awakens from their long sleep and are shocked to see what the vampires and humans have done to Helea. They begin to attempt to wipe them from the area.

Gameplay

Darkeden is a hack-and-slash game, which requires the players to kill hordes of monsters in order to make their character progress. This character progression varies according to the different races. Slayers only have to attack a monster or player to gain experience points. Vampires need to kill a monster or player and drink its blood to gain the full extent of the experience points available.

Winslayer 2d overview

Winslayer 2d overview
Wind Slayer is a cartoony 2D side scrolling fantasy MMORPG. The game has ‘cute’ anime graphics and has a lot of features. Unlike other side scrolling MMORPGs that lack PvP, one of Wind Slayer’s biggest focus is its arena based PvP When I first found out that Wind Slayer got licensed by Ignited games I was pretty excited. I don’t know what it is, but I’m a huge fan of Ignited games MMORPG portal. Maybe it’s just their website’s design that attracts me, but for whatever reason I feel as if they’ve done a great job during the CBT by keeping their MMORPGs hack free. One thing I’d like to point out about Wind Slayer before I begin talking about the game’s specific features is that the game is NOT a Maplestory clone! With the almost sudden growth of the side scrolling MMORPG genre it’s not surprising that newer games will borrow features from older ones




Publisher: Ignited games
Playerbase: Medium
Graphics: Medium Quality
Type: MMORPG
EXP Rate: Medium
PvP: Arena
Filesize: ~ 300 MB

Pros: +Large game world. +Fun and rewarding arena based PvP. +Varied classes and job advancements. +Plenty of quests available.

Cons: - lacks of macro controls



Wind Slayer is one of Outspark’s latest games and its foray into the world of side scrolling MMORPGs. The game is a 2D Fantasy MMORPG that looks a lot like several other popular side scrolling MMORPGs but with a slight graphical variation.

The game’s six starting classes are:


Warrior – Warriors are in Wind Slayer are the traditional melee oriented class with strong defense and powerful melee attacks. They also have the largest amount of hit points in the game.



Rogue - Rogues in Wind Slayer are capable of dealing massive amounts of damage relatively quickly but have low hit points and weaker defense than the other melee classes.



Archer – Archers in Wind Slayer are capable of attacking their enemies from a distance with powerful attacks but are vulnerable to in melee combat.



Mage - Mages in Wind Slayer are able to do massive amounts of damage from a distance with their spells but have some of the lowest hit points and armor in the game.



Monk - Monks in Wind Slayer are adept at using martial arts to defeat their enemies. They can deal powerful melee attacks using their fists alone but lack the defensive capabilities of a warrior.



Priest - Priests in Wind Slayer are the traditional ‘healer’ archetype. They are supportive characters that can be valuable assets to any group.

Windslayer a side-scrolling game

When I first found out that Wind Slayer got licensed by Ignited games I was pretty excited. I don’t know what it is, but I’m a huge fan of Ignited games MMORPG portal. Maybe it’s just their website’s design that attracts me, but for whatever reason I feel as if they’ve done a great job keeping their MMORPGs up to date and hack free. One thing I’d like to point out about Wind Slayer before I begin talking about the game’s specific features is that the game is NOT a Maplestory clone! With the almost sudden growth of the side scrolling MMORPG genre it’s not surprising that newer games will borrow features from older ones.



Wind Slayer is a genuinely fun
Wind Slayer is a fast paced 2D side scrolling fantasy MMORPG. The game borrows a lot of features from other popular scrolling games like Maplestory and LaTale but it has quite a bit of its own innovations. Perhaps the game’s strongest point is that from the moment I created my character to the moment I logged off for the day I was having fun. The game has a comprehensive crafting system, plenty of quests and a fun ‘hack and slash’ style combat system that feels unique. Another aspect of Wind Slayer that distinguishes it from the other side scrolling MMORPGs on the market is its impressive list of starting classes and job advancements. Like many other games, players start their adventure in the world of Wind Slayer as a classless ‘novice’ and have to select their first class only after the first few levels of the game. In Wind Slayer players can advance to one of six starting classes at level 10 by visiting the Ozi Temple. The fact that Wind Slayer has six starting classes is pretty impressive considering a lot of newer games only have three or four. One of my only complaints with the game now is that the controls can feel clumsy at times and combat isn’t as fluid as it should be.



PvP Arenas in a side-scroller? Awesome!
The single most attractive aspect of Wind Slayer is the game’s PvP components. It is also what distinguishes Wind Slayer from other side scrolling MMORPGs. The game’s PvP at its current state is limited to small arenas that can support up to 16 players at once. Currently, the only PvP mode released is team deathmatch, but several other modes like ‘free-for-all’ and ‘capture the flag’ are under development. Not only does Wind Slayer have a PvP system, it has a darn good one. Unlike other games where higher level players always dominate PvP, Wind Slayer has a PvP mode called ‘normalized’ which makes every player in the arena the same level to ensure fairness. The game also has the standard arena mode where everyone plays their own character ‘as is’ without any adjustments for fairness, but the fact that the game has multiple PvP modes is quite impressive.



Another interesting facet of Wind Slayer’s PvP is that the game actually rewards players for participating because the game has a special currency called ‘Victy’ which can only be earned through success in PvP. Victy can be exchanged for special items ranging from bonus experience to special clothes. Perhaps the most interesting item that requires ‘Victy’ are ‘job advancement’ scrolls which are needed for job advancements, which means players either have to participate in the game’s PvP to advance to the next class or they have to purchase the scrolls from a player that earned it through PvP.



Big improvements
I first played Wind Slayer when the game entered closed Beta back before the game was being published by Outspark. The game back then was absolutely nothing compared to what it is today because of the countless bug fixes and overall improvements. Simply moving around or attacking felt clumsy and slow. The game still has its drawbacks and faults but the fact is that the game has been improved significantly since its first beta. I urge players that were ‘turned off’ by the game’s glitchy behavior back before Outspark was published the game to give the game another chance. The game’s combat system still feels a bit glitch and movement at times can still become laggy, but the fact is that the game has fixed most if its previous bugs and with a reliable publisher like Outspark, the game will continue to be updated.



Final Thoughts
Wind Slayer’s game world is actually incredibly large, so try not to get lost, especially early on. When I first started playing I wandered away from the newbie zone to try and find more difficult monsters, but I quickly found myself lost and in an area with enemies that I had no chance to killing. I’m not sure why the game developers placed such powerful monsters within a few ‘zones’ away from the newbie area, but the game’s monster placement certainly could use some work. Another small complaint with the game’s world is that although it’s large, it’s nowhere near as large as Maplestory’s, but I’m confident Outspark will continue to release updates that will expand the game. To top off the game’s impressive list of features is its solid user interface, which I consider one of the more important aspects of a game, because a poorly designed ugly interface can easily ruin an otherwise great game. Think about it, the thing players look at most and interact with most is the game’s interface!

Final Verdict – Good
If you’re a fan of side scrolling MMORPGs, Wind Slayer is certainly worth the download. It has a solid PvP system and a large selection of playable classes and job advancements. The only real drawback to the game right now is that combat is a bit glitchy and the game doesn’t have nearly as many features as other side scrolling MMORPGs.
