Played it months ago, great looking game, horrible quests and translations.

Lots of quests dont show any progress or even tell you what to do (but if you read guides you can find out what you need to do to complete them)
Lots of quests are like "Kill 1000 Taoists", or collect 200 items, 2-3 times in a row. And the items have horrible drop rates.

Its slow leveling and the quests are horrible, but it looks perty so yeah.

South Korean means grindfest.

In my experience.

Very interesting idea. Instead of selling the game and fighting gold farmers they give away the game and do their own gold farming which appears to offer decent prices.

Yea, I played Lineage 2 once. It sucked a ton of ass compared too WoW. But I'll check this out, the graphics look impressive.

EDIT: This game is gonna be great, here are some of the impressive weapon descriptions!

Frost Sword: 4th Chinese one-hand sword. The white sword that the superiors use. The letter engraved by the quality is different.

Gem Sword: 6th Chinese one-hand sword. The superior sword that can be made by adjusting for 100 days under the waterfall.

Devil Sword: 8th Chinese one-hand sword. The dreary evil sword made with drinking the blood.

I heard this game was sponsored by the Korean government as a means to increase the game development in that country. That is why it is free.

Yea, the gameplay is a rip of Lineage, the interface is a rip of WoW, the servers are way overcrowded and laggy, and the translations are horrible.

To say the least, it doesn't impress me.

Didnt have a whole lot of latency issues.. FPS lag? Sure in town in 1600x1200 with the graphics cranked..

Its free.. And its a nice change.. shame you didnt dig it..

I dont know how much lag you usually get with these games, but my ping must be over 1000 :<
