Review
Here is concept
that should definitely be worked on until it is
done right. In fact, more module authors should
work on a MMORPG theme like this, especially since
premium MMORPGs like Asheron's Call 2 charge $50
for the game and then $13 a month after one
"free" month. Nothing would please me
more than to see this theme expanded on in the
future.
Now lets delve
into various aspects of this particular module
besides its innovative theme. First off, no
beginning character, especially alone, should
attempt to play this module. The author recommends
that only grouped characters between the levels of
10 to 20 try to play this module. For solo
players, the authors recommends extremely strong
level 20 characters. However, I was able to power
level solo by picking and choosing the easiest
fights with the most experience points. For
example, a player can fight the vampires that are
invading the fort and level quickly by simply
getting the last blow in as you help the soldiers
hold the vampires off. As you level like this and
get stronger, other areas of the game begin
possible to withstand.
Lake Linaria
maintains its MMORPG theme by offering several
caves and locations that are fairly grouped close
together, binding stones for when you die,
treasure chests at the end of a cave filled with
massive amounts items, and a wide variety of
monsters. Any gamer who likes to fight monsters
such as giants, dragons, vampires, and queen
spiders will have plenty to kill. However, it
should be noted that you can forget about a story
with this module. That said, this module only fits
gamers who want to power level or prefer the
structure of MMORPGs to story-driven PC RPGs.
