Ragnarok Online - Online Game of the Week

Game Description and Comments

Ragnarok Online is a fantasy MMORPG based on Norse mythology that has very colorful cartoon graphics and several game features that add to the game's replay value. A couple of the interesting features include a card system that allows you to create item and an upgrade system that makes items stronger. However, the most interesting feature is a variation to the level cap. While most MMORPGs have just one level cap, RO adds another layer of gaming by allowing characters to "transcend" the normal level cap. Your levels start over, but you enter a new phase of the game where you can attain several higher level Transcendent classes like a Lord Knight, a High Wizard, or a Champion.

Comment: I can't see why this game isn't on the top 10 MMORPGS. Compared to Runescape, this game is absolutely amazing. Great, simple battle system (does vaguely resemble that of Diablo); the class system is awesome; visuals are great; sound is great; the 2d characters demonstrates an excellent use of Anime (Japanese Animation). I say this game should be one of the greatest MMORPGs of all times.

Comment: I have spent 6 months straight addicted to this game. Where the game lacks in full modern 3d graphics and free gameplay, it makes up for in community. Everyone is nice and the game is extremely easy to pick up and play. In short, this is one of my favorite MMORPGs.
