Guru’s Boring MMORPG Reviews…

So I was gone for a while as already evident, but then the Ninja said “hey, post a blawg.”

So I did…

But it wasn’t enough. It didn’t emanate enough PWNage to rawk da house. So I pondered what would be the best.

A Hacker Blog? Bleh, already made tons of those

A Blog Mocking Nexon? Maybe next time.

A Blog Making Fun of an MMOer who is an Idiot? Made enough of those.

Indicting the Captain’s reckless antics that cast this site into the edge of oblivion ever so often? And risk getting banned by his fascist @$$? Not yet…

So I thought I’d play it safe, and share with you all my experiences playing other MMORPGs…

Yes, MMOs not deemed conventional by the MMOTale Masses…

And so I begin my…

SUPAH COOL AWESOME AWESOME REVIEWZZZ!!!

Now I consider myself to have the authority on judging these games solely based on the fact that I can and I will and I’ve been playing games since before preschool. I also have a high expectation for games and I know when the developers were lazying around. For reference purposes, let me tell you that my rating for the current version of Maplestory is 6.5/10. I’ve played enough MMOs to come to that conclusion so don’t get so defensive.

2Moons

Its a game created by a well known developer and publisher Acclaim. Now the characters are far from cutesy and huggable like how little kitty mine mine makes me feel so fine.

My kitty is so pretty, no one can compete. She is always with me, my kitty is so sweet. Whenever I’m sad, she will be the one who’ll cheer me up by singin’ a song!

Little kitty mine mine; won’t you sing a song? Little kitty mine; and we’ll sing along! We will be together, every day and night! Little kitty mine mine makes me feel so fine!

And that is exactly not how 2Moons is.

It gets a 7.5/10 grade from me. Its got blood, swearing (NPCs), and its a whole lots of fun. Its battle system is very fast paced and action packed, and you are able to challenge anyone on the screen to a PvP match when you feel bored.

However there are two problems I had found with it: music, but that depends on your tastes; and lack of customization. The graphics are pretty decent however, but not Granado quality

You can find it here

Now on to the second game…

Tales of Pirates

Is a pretty smexy game. In fact, I like it a lot. However it does have its fair share of problems; the camera angle is always in some way shape or form to be birds eye view unlike other 3D MMOz. In other words, you can never see the blue sky…

How depressing.

On the other hand, you can get a ship and name it. You can become a member of a Navy guild or a Pirate guild. You go around with your ship exploring the vast continents (they are HUGE continents and there are three of them) finding mass amounts of cargo/fishing and trading them. You also have quite a bit of customization ability in your hands. Another plus is the levelling speed; it isn’t too fast, nor is it god-awful slow like Maplestory. Its just right!

What I would have suggested to make it better was to have the ships hold your party and make it bigger relative to the size of your character. Also, having the party leader control the ship while they tell the party to swab the decks as the leader control the ship? Man, that would have been so pirate-esque. Too bad it isn’t so. Neither is its sister game voyage century.

I’d give it an 7.8/10. I love the fact that there is so much to explore and when you think you’ve explored a lot, you realize that its only 5% of the whole continent after you check your map. You can find Tales of Pirates here; I suggest playing it

And onto the next game…

Fiesta Online

Fun game. It truly is a fiesta. The character models are great, the music is well done, and customization is pretty decent. The leveling system is at a decent speed and not very overwhelming. The only thing is that there is only one monster per level, which gets boring when you fight. I prefer having a variety of monsters my level to fight; Maplestory got that one correct.

Otherwise, I’m only level 12 in this game, so I can’t say much about it. I won’t give it a rating…

Found here

Rumble Fighter

Its an online fighting game. You can customize your character pretty decently, have an option of over 15 different martial arts styles, and you can get some pretty kick-arse special skills. However, Rumble Fighter isn’t really an MMO. Rather when you log on, you have to pick a room and battle in there. As a casual bashfest, its fun, but not something you would expect to go all “Tiger” in and level beyond 100 in a week.

It gets a 7/10.

Find it here

In Conclusion

I realize that I shouldn’t review MMORPGs. Just look at the ratings. I don’t seem to give anything beyond 8/10…which is pretty sad considering the amounts of games that I buy which I would actually rate over 9/10 almost every time…

*sigh*.
I’d give kingdom hearts 1: 9.5/10
Kingdom Hearts 2: 10/10
Resident Evil 4: 10/10.
Metal Gear Solid 3: 10/10.
Super Paper Mario: 9/10.
Final Fantasy 10: 9/10
Final Fantasy 12: 9/10

And the only MMO I’ve played to get a high mark by me…

Granado Espada: 8.8/10

*sigh* but it still doesn’t hit the spot.

…So ultimately, there has yet to be the MMO. I will search for it, and if I can’t find it or if it isn’t made in time, I’ll make it (not me, but my slaves)! Its already planned anyway; we already planned 50% of the MMO world. We planned the class system and skill system. We planned the battle system and theorized ways to get rid of what we call “The Boring MMO” problem. We already have a name for the game…we just need a development team; and for that its gonna take 10 years xP

Fun…good thing there are quite a bit of game programmers on campus…I’ll just have to make friends with them…

  1. KINGDOM EHARTS2 = THE AWESOME! =D

    im gonna try and save this blog, cuz yknow, ur opinion counts! =O

    ~Cheezy

  2. Check out Perfect World. It’s pretty solid from what I hear, not to mention pretty pretty (if only my crappy computer could handle it above the lowest graphics settings).

  3. FAIL for giving KH2 a better score than KH

    unless you are 5 years old Guru, you shouldn’t even consider giving KH2 a better score than KH

  4. Waffle said: “FAIL for giving KH2 a better score than KH

    Oh, so you’re saying a five year old is smarter than the rest of the world now are you?

  5. KH2 was a watered down version oh KH1 for the pussy(cats) that had trouble with KH

    KH2 isn’t bad but it most definitely 9.0 material

    and KH1 is 9.4

  6. Bah, KH1 was easy. Sephiroth for example, I beat him at level 65,

    But I like KH2 because of its storyline,

  7. Is that an implication that KH1 Sephy is easier than KH2?

    the only thing that kh2 beats kh1 in difficulty is that last hades tournament (last 10 levels)

    i could never beat the simlutaneous Cloud, Squall, Tifa, and Yuffie

    I never really tried though

    The idea of taking them all at once was impossible enough to make me lose confidence in my playing skill

    Plus the level design in KH2 made me want to gouge my eyes out for more a a challenge

    i mean, what was the point of the maps?

    you literally took 3 steps on some levels and were out

    the only thing that gives KH2 a 9 in the first place was because combat was more entertaining

    we’re all entitled to our opinions

    it’s just. . .

    i thought you, of all people would see it this way

    but, whatever

    you are not fit to carry on my legacy it seems

    i shall find someone with 2 of the same letters occuring consecutively in their name, like the ‘F”s in my name

  8. The picture says
    “The most wanted event in the 21st century”

    I thought that was Halo 3

  9. Rumble fighter looks like GetAmped.

    2Moons looks kinda like Rappelz with more blood[yay].

    Fiesta looks like FlyFF with literacy.

    TOP looks like eh. . .Pirates Online.

    Imma play all of those after my exams pl0x. =D

  10. I would try out Granado Espada, but I’m too lazy to Download it.

    That, and one more MMORPG, and my comp will crash every five seconds.

    As opposed to every five hours that mine is doing right NOW.
