Inspiration from Logi's GBA reviews! I'm going to start making reviews on the thing I play the much, MMOs! I play a new one like every two weeks or so because I have commitment problems! I already have played countless MMOs so I have my first set of reviews already lined up and will be replaying them slightly so I can see if there is anything fresh or new. I will be reviewing MMOs from RPG to FPS and everything in between! Make a request or just sit and wait for the next! And stay tuned in! First review will be...... Rusty Hearts! Currently in Closed Beta Phase II!
Rusty Hearts
I picked to play this one as Angela at first, she starts as a Sword Master and at level 15 I got to switch over to the Scythe Master. I think its just amazing this game has a Scythe in it! Not only a scythe but a working scythe that is equal power as the other classes! Now what do we have for the other characters? Frantz is a sword user at first and he is the easiest character, he can hit heavy combos right at the start and has a kinda flash step to help him get into it. His class change can go to the Axe. The axe hits multiple foes but is a little slow and doesn't really deal enough damage to make up for it. I would recommend using the sword and not changing at 15. I have already spoken about Angela, she starts as Sword Master, not as fast as Frantz and not as heavy combo but she hits decently and movies with great style. The scythe she can switch to at 15 is just amazing. It's for the more magic oriented players, and has the best range out of all the weapons. I have seen many people fail at using the Scythe Master so I really only recommend this for users who LOVE magic and not just throwing a scythe around. The Scythe Master also has something the others don't, charged attacks. You can hold the attack button to do special charged attacks, like use the scythe as a boomerang or make a giant beam come forth out of the ground as you spike down on your foes. Next is Tude, the hardest of all the characters so far to use. His starting class is Gauntlets, they are heavy hitters and medium combos. Once he gets claws he is a little faster and hits just a little weaker but his chain of possible combos makes him an elite character for PVP when he can drag you around for a combo lasting 5 minutes, talk about overkill! Now the story is pretty simple, but is worth reading. Angela is a total smartass and says the most stupid shit ever, she is a pimp ass witch! Frantz, the main character as it seems, has lost his beloved wife, he is a half blood vampire teaming with the young witch in order to find his wife somewhere in Vlad's castle! Tude has not been introduced in the story yet outside of the starting section where it shows you the game. He makes a smart remark to Angela when running away from a huge ass beast. The end for him as it seems so far. Now there is a fourth character yet to be unlocked but has been introduced on the forums. She is a silver hair gunslinger. I assume from what we know her starting class will be Gunslinger and her advancement if made will be Rifleman. This game is a must play for MMO fans and I highly recommend it for people new to the MMO world. Hope you have enjoyed my first review and I hope to see you next time on MMO Corner!
Last Chaos
Good Ole' Last Chaos, my first MMO game. I highly recommend this game for various reasons. It's not for the starter in MMOs sadly to say, its a game of rough training right from the start to be strong later on, when I say that I mean the SP farming! Skill Point farming is a pain in the ass and if you aren't willing to buy some AP (Aeria Points) then you my friend will spend about a month farming. The classes are pretty high up there.
I have played as every class personally, and the links in those basic outline class names are just of one of the two subclasses. Once you hit level 30 you can go into a subclass and it gives you a free P2 (player two) poney to ride at that time also. First though lets talk about the classes
Why am I only talking about characters? Not storyline or systems within the game? Well this game sucks for both of those. It has an advanced Guild system which works with the AMAZING PvP system. It has the worst Skill system ever thanks to SP Farming. It has a great Monster, Boss, Dungeon, and Raid systems. Overall though this game is just a big farm to hell game just to PvP. That's it. Enjoy. Also, graphics suck.
King of Kings 3
This game.... makes me want to quit MMORPGs. I don't recommend this game! I watched the amazing trailer for it for what? NOTHING! The graphics are shitty, the player base is low, the level cap is 140 with little under average exp rate and why should I expect higher? THE GAME IS BARELY A YEAR OLD IT SHOULD BE UP TO DATE GRAPHICS AND ALL! Now I wouldn't be so mad if I didn't sit for two hours downloading this game. Why did it take two hours on my fucking high speed wireless internet? It uses Pando Media Booster, why is that bad? Well Pando Media Booster has a strange effect on most computers. It uses about 8% of your Internet which is pretty good but it only peaks and then goes right down to 0 Bps so you get to watch it go up and down over and over. How do you make it faster? Clean up your computer, have at least half your computer's hard drive clean. I did this by deleting a bunch of games I don't play anymore. Which was a mistake, I would rather reply them than play an hour of this SHIT! Now let me point out the special parts of this game. It has a three way break off class advancement system and goes for two advancements pretty nice, bad part is how bad the level gap is for each and the fact that the last one which should be your most in-depth skills only has five skills. The guild system is very unique. Once a guild becomes strong enough it can have a Legion and a Kingdom! Yes you can build a city out in the world! This is very hard to archive though. There are legion wars, you kingdom can be attacked at any time, and you can raid other legion's kingdoms. A cool little ability is you get to build a home! Yes guild or not you can build a home and have stuff in it for like storage, decorations, a place to sleep, yatta yatta yatta and it all gives you bonuses to your character! Now there is only three basic 1st job set classes to pick from Warrior, Mage, and Cleric. So you are very limited until level 50 and you only get about 12 skills the last one being at level 37. It's a very bad game and I estimate this game will be dead and closed within the coming years of the MMO world.
Grand Chase Newest!
Now here is one of my all time favorites! Grand Chase! This game is a good ole' instance play game! You pick a dungeon and you run it, which can get boring pretty fast if you go solo, but you don't have to because this game has a great player base! The amazing player base is surprising from such an unknown producer but the game has been out for a few years now and has still been giving not only amazing PvE Dungeons, PvP Epicness, Great GM Interaction, Great EXP rate, Amazing Characters, it has also been though over three seasons and still promising even more! Not only for the new characters but still the originals! That red headed knight has not been forgotten nor the purple headed mage and blonde archer! Though the game's developers have shown favorites to two characters mainly, Dio & Zero. When Dio first came out everyone raged. He already had two skill trees when all the others didn't even have the first yet. Hell Mari didn't even have her second class yet! That still hasn't changed either. Only the new characters have skill trees sadly and the only way to get new skills on the old characters is to buy a key with real money and unlock the Cash Skills. Which I did for every character! Sieghart and Zero are my bois! Back to the reviewing though, this game has an amazing reward system with its Hero Dungeons. Fun at any level, lets you switch between many characters. I must say the missions to get the characters are a little overly done though, same with class unlocking and duel wielding. Did I mention the great graphics? I don't think so... This game also has amazing graphics which I can run at full power with ZERO lag, also that's due to the great server power. This game is overall one of the best side scrolling dungeon games I have ever played. I highly recommend it, if your a story lover you should get a good chuckle or two, its not great but it's decent. I haven't seen a computer yet that can't run this game. (I haven't seen a 98 Windows so don't be a smartass) I hope you liked this review, this is one of the more promising games to spend a weekend on no living. Please! Before you grow up! PLAY THIS GAME!

Good Ole' Last Chaos, my first MMO game. I highly recommend this game for various reasons. It's not for the starter in MMOs sadly to say, its a game of rough training right from the start to be strong later on, when I say that I mean the SP farming! Skill Point farming is a pain in the ass and if you aren't willing to buy some AP (Aeria Points) then you my friend will spend about a month farming. The classes are pretty high up there.
- Knight- Royal Knight or Templar Knight
- Healer- Cleric or Archer
- Mage- Witch or Wizard
- Rogue- Ranger or Assassin
- Titan- Warmaster or Highlander
- Sorcerer- Elementalist or Specialist
- NightShadow
I have played as every class personally, and the links in those basic outline class names are just of one of the two subclasses. Once you hit level 30 you can go into a subclass and it gives you a free P2 (player two) poney to ride at that time also. First though lets talk about the classes
- Royal Knight- Uses Duel Blades, Good for solo or party use, does heavy damage and has the greatest chain skill uses. Elite PVP. Low magic defense and low defense overall.
- Templar Knight- Uses Sword and Shield. Not good for solo but advanced in parties and is the heart and soul of a good Tank. Extremely high defense and lower attack. His skills consist mostly of buffs and one speical one that can teleport a NPC, PC, or object.
- Cleric- I don't even have to explain this one, its the classic Cleric class. Uses a short staff type wand. Heals. Sucky Solo great team.
- Archer- Old fashion bow user. Has an amazing set of skills that can rape the pvp epidemic of this game. PvE? Not so much, it's slow to level as if you try to get a bunch of foes on you and take them out one by one, you will be pwned.
- Witch or Wizard- Basicly the same thing one uses wand one uses staff almost the same skills both are mostly AoE oriented the staff morely and the wand lessly. Wand good for PvE. Staff good for PvE and PvP.
- Ranger- The ranger... how can I put this... OP? Over powered? This is a Archer with a cross bow and snare. Crossbow is extremely fast even without the buffs it has and without stopping you in your tracks with Snare. If your a melee and you run across a ranger on PvP, only one word of advise. Ragequit.
- Assassin- Same thing, its a fast version of the Royal Knight but with faster hits for low damage. Also has snare and LONG RANGE SKILLS! Like wtf?! Both the Rogue classes I must say are overpowered and should be nurfed a hell of a lot.
- Highlander- Uses a large axe, slow, heavy hitter, good for Pvp, good for PvE as a tank. Overall basic class. You can even button mash if you want?
- Warmaster- Titan's more difficult and skillful class in my opinion. He uses a huge ass sword like its a butter knife and has a great set of skills, this guy can be level 50 and kill the level 100s in Tomb! if you use him right that is.
- Elementalist- Classical elemental wizard. Can summon two of his four elemental summons to fight by his side. Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water. His summons are his power, without them he is useless. With AoE around, he is worthless toast.
- Specialist- The lovely scythe user. He can transform into a demon or a rather large knight. The demon is for attack the knight is for defense. Great class for PvP and PvE. You can plan how to fight stuff ahead of time, if it kills you fast use Knight if it kills you slowly use Demon! It's a skillful class and requires the most Skill Points to be farmed as it has skill trees for both transformations and you need both.
- Nightshadow- This one... is also Overpowered. You need to have a level 90 character in order to make a NS. Once you make it he starts at level 90 and his weapon is a lovely soul. He doesn't use mana like the others, he uses souls, they don't regen either, you must go out and collect souls to use for your skills. He can fly. He can eat souls. And he can fuck you up with a series of bomb skills and one AoE that can clear a map.
Why am I only talking about characters? Not storyline or systems within the game? Well this game sucks for both of those. It has an advanced Guild system which works with the AMAZING PvP system. It has the worst Skill system ever thanks to SP Farming. It has a great Monster, Boss, Dungeon, and Raid systems. Overall though this game is just a big farm to hell game just to PvP. That's it.
