THE GOOD:
- Great graphics
- Cutey Musics
- It's online
- Can be use as replacement for MSN or icq, u can play and chat
- Special events to get you more hook! Examples, WOE (War of Emperium) Where u join guild and other guild~

THE BAD:
- Time consuming
- Stress can occur
- Getting addicted
- Paying is required
- Some people online might be jerks , Scammers

SUMMARY:
Ragnarok Online is a MMORPG. It is online and fun. You can chat, make friend and also play the game. It has this anime thing to it that makes this game so adorable and cute. It makes a good pass time game where you just wanna have fun and make friend. Though playing game itself is enjoyable.

Training is an important aspect in this game. Getting yourself stronger by leveling allows you to test your skill in some event in the game such the Woe, which i had stated above. This game can conjure friendship or either enemies as you might pursure for personal popularity or for your guild pride and glory which makes this game awesome.

What makes this game so addictive is that you hardly get bored, as you can do multiple quest to feed your need for entertainment. From my view, it is one of the best MMORPG compare to the tops such as FF11.

Though, addiction might cause you are future, before playing this game make sure you have a control of your life .

THE GOOD:
1. It is good because you can chat with others.
2. You can test your patience in playing this.

THE BAD:
1. It is hard to level up.
2. It have hackers so beware.

SUMMARY:
This is one of the hottest games I have played this whole year - superb graphics and a soundtrack by NIN make this a great action romp. Some other users have diss'd the game cuz they say it's too short, or it doesn't have enough weapons.... forget what they say, cuz the game is freaking HARD, and the weapons that you have access to require some serious skill to really master, so all in all the game is tuff to beat, and not at all suitable for pansies. Two thumbs way up!This is one of the hottest games I have played this whole year - superb graphics and a soundtrack by NIN make this a great action romp.

THE GOOD:
  • Beautiful graphics.
  • You can choose how your character looks.
  • Many different enemies to fight.
  • Huge cities with tons of shops and stores.
  • 7 different jobs you can choose: Novice, Mage, Archer, Acolyte, Thief, Merchant and Swordman.
  • Each character learns different abilities depending on his/her job.
  • The ability to open a chat room and organizing parties, such as joining some.
  • The ability to talk to other characters in real time without having to open a chat room.
  • Trading items with other people.

    THE BAD:

  • You have to train much time to get the jon you want.

    SUMMARY:
    Ragnarok Online is by far the best online game I have ever played and heard of (in fact, it's the first one I ever played). You might want to try it out, seeing as the game is free for 7 days (Europe) and 2 weeks (America, I think).
    There are tons of things to do. You train your character and then, after reaching a certain level, you can choose one of the seven jobs featured in this game. Each job requires different skills, and your abilities will change depending on the job you chose. You can always talk to other characters whenever you want, and you even have the ability to create an own chat room or trade items with other people using the deal system. This game is really worth buying, and if you're looking for a good online game, I definitely suggest you Ragnarok Online!

    must admit when I first stumbled across this game oh about 2 years back I was very skeptical about online games. Especially MMORPGs. I thought they were bogus and were only for nerds and people without lives. Now I understand why most people make that association because Ragnarok Online will take whatever part of you is normal, suck it up, chew it up, spit it out, then repeat with vengeance. It is a very potent formula and if it gets its meat hooks in you, it won't let go. It is THAT addictive.

    ----------
    -Graphics- 10
    ----------

    The graphics are one of the game's defining qualities. It sets it apart from all other MMORPGs. It combines crisply detailed 2-d sprites with a lush full 3-d background. And that's just the basics. It uses some fantastic looking special effects too such as fog that builds up as you get to a higher elevation the the game. The best part about these graphics are that they can run at full capacity easily on a low budget computer. So worry not, you won't need any special high-end graphics card to run this baby smoothly.

    -------
    -Story- 5
    -------

    There really isn't a story to this game other than the one or two paragraph essay intro that's posted on the game's website. With all else considered, this doesn't even matter. Let's get into the good stuff!

    ----------
    -Gameplay- 10+
    ----------

    Here are the fangs of the beast. This gameplay, as repetitive as it may sound will most surely keep you captivated for hours on end. The basic premise is: you point to an enemy, click it and your character slashes it. You kill enough enemies and you level up your Job and Base level thus gaining Job and Base points. Job points let you select important battle/support skills from your skill tree and likewise Base points let you up the desired statistic such as vitality or agility. This is gonna be the meat and potatos of any RPG but let me go more in depth. The player most choose from several different jobs and each job requires you to follow a different path in the game in order to operate that job class at maximum efficieny. Basically if you're a thief then you're gonna want to increase agility more than other stats and you might want to level in areas that contain monsters that are slow. But if you're an acolyte (which is the equivalent of a medic, a magic based character) you'll want to increase intelligence more than the other stats and you might want to level in other places.

    Now you can solo in this game for a good long while but you will eventually be forced to join a party/guild to survive. Gravity (the makers of the game) have strongly encouraged teamwork by doing things such as putting in incredibly hard monsters that can only be taken down by large amounts of players. This introduces a whole new aspect to the game.

    Now one of the other aspects I'd like to go over is items. You see, you don't earn money when you kill something, you get "loot" which usually sells for jack-squat. So this makes earning money very very hard and it forces you to "hunt" for the good items and equipment, some of which can't even be bought in stores. Now this creates another aspect. The RO market. It pretty much functions just like a REAL market functions. And it is very complicated to explain.

    OVERALL this gameplay stems off from something simple and cutesy to something incredibly in-depth and complex. The only way to fully understand it is to experience it for yourself.

    -------
    -Sound- 8.0
    -------

    Good at first, but after you've become a veteran and have been playing for a while you might find yourself putting headphones on and listening to some of your own tunes. The composers did manage to create some pretty memorable jingles though. I'd say it's a cross between Final Fantasy and Trigun.

    --------------
    -Lasting life- FOREVER
    --------------

    I have no idea why but I can't even quit. I have been playing this game since it was in beta and I still love it. Even if you delete it, try to quit and forget about it you will FOREVER feel the urge to play again! It is simply too addictive. I must WARN you that if you are reading this and haven't tried it DO NOT TRY IT unless you are plenty ok with wasting lots of time playing it! Trust me it is easier to never try it than to play and try to quit!

    ------------------
    -Closing comments-
    ------------------

    Some people say it came out of left field but I must tell you, it has been here the whole time. I've tracked it and played it since it was a little baby in beta and now that I see it grown up, gone commercial, and gathering more and more people every month I can only say this: You *******s! You blew it all up!

    THE GOOD:
    Pretty much everything, I mean, the graphics are nice and simple, but they are effective too. I really like the pet system, and how they set up the experience and skill system.

    THE BAD:
    Nothing, except maybe when MVP Monsters pass over you.

    SUMMARY:
    Over all, a really awesome game. Everything, from being able to vend in Prontera, to hunting pet tames, to the beaches of Comodo, every element of this game kicks all hell outta other MMORPG's. Some rares can almost only be found from vendors, so even if you're not leveling up, you can rare hunt, explore, or just plain run around like a chicken with no head...(I guess...). I really recommend this game for anyone who likes a good MMORPG, full of many many things to do for fun. Crazy good stuff. Good luck, to anyone who decides to get it, you won't have any remorse.

    THE GOOD:
    The game is excellent I love it and it's a well based game to interact with other people...and to just have fun..^__^ also PVP arena was a good idea instead of just like PKers *hates them*..^__^

    THE BAD:
    The bad is I really dont like the stats system, because I'm so used to gaining little of like str dex spd..etc every level, but now you have to put what you want where you want with the points, and you cant really be as strong as you would be in like a Final Fantasy game ^__^*still loves RO*.....also the barrier ring that goes around you when your max level everyone knows that your max its such a giveaway..v__v its like gee i wander if anyone knows im on lvl 99?!?..XDDD

    SUMMARY:
    I hope that the game gets more spells because right now I have a lvl.78 Wizard BaseLvl 78/JobLvl 56 I havent played in a while tho but that will change I have to go back to playing again ^__^
    Theres good news for those anime fans, I don't know if you know this but there is a anime on Ragnarok *has seen it*....very cool and is a must see!! One more thing I want to say (Ahem!)....BAPHOMUT IS EVIL!!!!! ^O^;

    THE GOOD:
    fantastic gfx with cute anime style characters

    THE BAD:
    can be tiresome after a wile

    SUMMARY:
    if you a fan of Anime and MMORPG's then you'll love this game, the game sets off by dropping you straight into the world, the start by finding your way inside to met various people that teach you the key elements of the game, after this comes the 'personality' test where they ask you a variety of questions to find out what job class you are best suited for... you can always chooses against there recommendations... after this you are dropped off in the chosen job class area... I have yet to play much further on this game but it is highly addictive!... the only real downside to a game like this is that for some people they may find it tiresome after a few days, it may be necessary at times to repeat things over and over again as is life in most games like Ragnorok, that said, I do suggest all off you give it at least a try, it has beautiful anime style graphics <img src="/animesmile.gif" border=0 vspace=2>... a must for all MMORPG fans

    THE GOOD:
    Excellent game with lots of items, enemies, and a play at your own pace environment.

    THE BAD:
    Occassional lag, Pay-to-play, Weapon Prices are really high.

    SUMMARY:
    This game is an excellent MMORPG, Massively Multiplaer Online Role Playing Game.
    It's easy enough for rookies to get into very quickly, yet complex enough to use many different stat building methods and item costimation.
    In many cases, you will find yourself excluding yourself from social events such as parties, school or even work just to play this game.Once you start and you like it you're hooked.The game is so enjoyable by all age levels, except that you will probably need to know how to read to play this game.

    Interaction with other players is different for everyone.Some players play on their own, and try leveling without help, others ask for help from stronger players all the time.It really doesn't matter how you play, but the game is more enjoyable with other people in your party.

    The game is very tedious in the beginning as you level up your Novice Job, but after you get your first job, customation starts and you can select which skills you would like to learn, and you can also begin equipping different equipment depending on your chacter's job.

    All in all, Ragnarok Online is a fun game and I would encourage everyone to try it, since there is a free 15-Day Trial.If you like it, you can pay to keep your characters, or every 15 Days you can make a new account (even though Gravity doesn't like this) and just make new friends everytime.
    Definatly a great game though!
