Just a few minutes ago I was listening/watching a music video a friend sent me. It was pretty interesting, for a bit then I noticed this ad on the right. It was a new MMORPG. So I check it out, signed up for it and wanting to DL it. Heading to the forums, for the game, then come to find out that it's set up almost exactly like GW.

Interesting. The screenshots of the warriors looked exactly like our War's, especially with the Christmas hat on. Amusing. Then the classes are the same; of course, nothing wrong with that. Races going from elves to whatever the hell they call 'em.

The story is about two goddess's against eachother, or some shit. I don't know, you guys go ahead and check it out, make your own opinons on the game. I just stopped it from DLing onto my computer, because I'd rather not wait 45Hours to play it and end up not liking it, or just finding it almost identical like the game I already play.

The game is called Shaiya.

Looks like most mmo's on the market.

Elves, Dark elves, humans, other races, Warrior, Priest, Mage, then dark/other variations of them, you have yourself an mmo.

I checked it out. Definitely better than Runescape.

You could say that about anything.

But yes, the game does look incredibly lame.

Youtubed it, Just like any other free game, and not impressive at all.

Why anything else when you have Guild Wars, It's like a downgrade.

Actually the gameplay is more of Lineage2.

Look like one of those F2P games with cash shop, grindfest and all that. Only 950mb DL though, I might have a go.

Does it have wasd movement?

omg, looks just as crappy as anything else from asia

Why is every Asian MMO ripping off Lineage in terms of art direction?

Because asians suck at making games?

See FF and all the other JRPG trash for examples.

The final fantasy series was good through the first 10. X-2 wasn't that great because it changed too much. 12 was okay.

BlueSS · Feb 11, 2008, 01:22 PM // 13:22

Wasnt this game released about 3 years ago or something? I think I heard about this game first time in 2003/2004

MirkoTeran · Feb 11, 2008, 01:44 PM // 13:44

Doesn't this look just like any other F2P asian FRP out there?

FF is an insult to the RPG genre.

F*** them.
