Game
Description and Comments
Perfect World is a
free 3D MMORPG with an Oriental fantasy setting.
This game is published in many different countries
and languages. Unfortunately, there is no official
English version but English speaking players are
able to play the Malaysian-English version of the
game. The results are not optimal, as one reviewer
points out below, but at least English is
supported in some way. This is important because
the game offers quite a lot for a free MMO. For
starters, grinding is not as pronounced as other
free MMOs due to the huge number of quests
available at each level. Since grinding is one of
the most complained about aspects of all MMOs,
Perfect World really shines here. Another standout
feature of the game is its character customization
system. Players have the power to really make
their characters look special in Perfect World
since clothing is not restricted by abilities or
powers. Other noteworthy features include a huge
game world, mounts that can fit two players, a
marriage system, and the ability to fly. That
said, players should at least try Perfect World
even though it does not have an official English
Version.

Comment: Graphics are quite good, not amazing but
good. Customization: well, you won't find better
character customization anywhere. You can even
make your character look like yourself if you try hard enough. The map is HUGE and will take a
while to explore. The BGM is also very nice.
There are three races: Wing Elf, Beastkind and
Human. There are also six classes: elf priest, elf archer,
warrior, magician, werefox (pet tamer) and
werebeast (tanker). All have HEAPS of skills and
you can choose from a wide range of weapons and
armour instead of just having weapons and armour
stuck to your class. For example, the Wing Elf can fly from level 1 but other classes have to
wait until level 30.
At level 30 you will enter global PK. However, you
will not likely be killed if you have a white
name. The community is good and helpful
though there are a lot of bots running around. If
you report the bots they will be dealt with quite
quickly and they're also fun to PK.
There is an item crafting feature where you can
make your own potions, jeweler, armour, and
weapons. These items usually end up with special effects
and stats. You will collect the materials from
mobs and you can find plants, wood and various
mines to get materials from.
Quests: There is an amazing amount of quests. I
didn't have to grind once until level 34 since there are
so many quests. Along with the regular 'kill x amount
of mobs', 'bring me x amount of items' or 'speak
to x NPC' there are challenging boss quests and
quest scrolls that drop from mobs that give you
free exp when used. I wouldn't bother reading any
of the NPC dialogue though as it's all in terrible
english.
Server lag can be quite bad, but a recent
announcement stated that they're working on making
international connections better.
All in all ,the good outweighs the bad in this
game. Perfect World scores a 10 from me.

Comment: Everyone on Rappelz raved about this game
so I decided to give it a try. I spent about 4
hours running around in game, doing various things
before I realized I how INCREDIBLY BORING this
game is.
Pros: Great graphics that are on par with games like
Rappelz and Lineage2, but slightly more awkward
character models. Lots of character customization,
you can adjust everything from your eye color to
your breast size. Yes, it is that customizable
(think Sims 2.) You can fly, which is fun for
about 10 minutes. You can also swim, which is fun
for even less.
Cons: Gameplay reminds me of Last Chaos, which is
slow and clumsy. Character reaction time and
fighting speed is exactly the same as Last Chaos.
Even some of the armor resembles armor in Last
Chaos. It is not particularly fun unless you like
standing around holding down the F-attack button
while you ever so slowly wear down the monster.
Other cons include, the horrible English that
plagues all MMOs these days. There is no true
English client yet. Instead, you get to share with
the Malaysians, who get a poorly translated
English version to play. Players speak English
almost as poorly as the NPCs or speak another
language altogether. For some reason, chat is
always completely silent. No one talks to anyone
else. Don't ask me why.
Because of the incomprehensible English and lack
of community help, you're left to figure out most
things for yourself. I had problems completing
quests because I was not able to find the right
monsters to kill and the minimap in-game is
atrocious. You can't find a thing with it. They
include a feature where if you enter the name of
an NPC, a giant arrow appears on your screen which
points the way to him/her, which is good because
otherwise you'd never find anyone. The map is
HUGE.
I should mention the flying and the swimming.
Combat while flying means you miss a lot and it's
also not fun. Combat while swimming is like combat
while on dry land, also not fun. The only thing I
used my flying for was to navigate around trees
and buildings. It is very slow. Running is
slightly quicker, but just as boring.
Overall, I would not recommend this game because
of the slow and boring combat, unhelpful
community, and incomprehensible game translations.
Play something better.

Comment: I play Perfect World and this
game is huge! The graphics are great (Just go buy
a good 512 mb card for about 100 dollars). The people in the game are
as friendly as it gets, but they don't bug you.
When you create a character, you can make just
about anyone! It took me 2 hours to
create my perfect guy. I have played this game for
over 500 total hours! The game just NEVER gets old! I
have played WoW and CoH, but they just didn't make
the cut such as this one (Even though they are
still really good games). This game fits any style
of any gamer: the calm, the casual, the intense,
the good, and the evil. Even people who don't play
MMORPGs that often will still enjoy this one!
