Summary

ArcheAge is an epic fantasy MMORPG free of predefined paths and progression. You’re free to choose your own path and play your way from the starting continents of Haranya and Nuia to the lost shores of Auroria, the birthplace of magic.You can wield incredible powers drawn from 120 unique Class combinations, master over 20 crafting vocations, build houses and manors in the open world, farm, trade, forge alliances, and lay waste to all who stand in your way. Or you can turn your back on it all and live as a pirate, ransacking traders and pillaging the high seas for plunder and gold.

Storyline

The current world of ArcheAge is - in short - the result of an expedition of twelve members of different races attempting to explore the source of the magic in their world. This event caused several of them to gain god like powers and become heroes and others to turn into gods. Personal relationships between members and their conflicts led to the downfall of their home continent, Auroria, and to settlement on the two other continents, Nuia and Haranya. The hostilities between these two continents and their factions remain until today.

Awesome, because they were all absolutely correct and i wont need to repeat a review about the myriad and epic failures of this p2w title. Have played MMOs for over 15 years, and am finding myself less and less loving to play them, but this one takes the cake. Archeage + f2p+p2w = hordes of execrable PoS players,creating an environment so repellent i'd have a nicer time in prison, and this is on top of the other negatives. If you value the joy, laughter, friendship and sense of accomplishment derived through playing with other gamers online, this game isnt for you.

Don’t let your judgment be clouded by other people’s opinions influenced by terrible server problems they encountered when ArcheAge was launched. It’s a really good, beautiful game.

That's why it gets a three.But; in the zone I started in, there are huge numbers of high lvl players fighting right next to three of the npcs needed for the starting quests. In a starting city area, mind you. The one time I was able to overcome the lag enough to target anything in the mob it said I had targeted a 'lvl40 practice dummy'.What this meant was after the 4 minute process of logging into the game I had to wait another 3 to 10 minutes for actual npc characters to load. Some of them became targetable before they appeared, but others didn't.Any quest involving a cutscene in the towns just kicks you out of the game due to the serious amount of lag. Once you get past the 4 minute login again, there is a better chance you will get to see the cutscene again.Of course, all this is moot anyway, since the game has been down for server maintenance for the last 16 hours.All in all, it's not something I see spending money on.

You may realize it sooner or later (I did only after 2 months of playing) that this game is a maze meant for you to stay at the same placeYou may realize it sooner or later (I did only after 2 months of playing) that this game is a maze meant for you to stay at the same place forever. No progression at all at the end-game due to the worst RNG possible.You can only progress if you toss A LOT OF MONEY at it. And i'm saying something like +10.000,00 dollars (I just did the math).Someday you will see that doing trade-runs and farming gold is not fun, and the gold you make doesn't allows you to do nothing at all.Don't fall for this cash-grab game.
