    We all fight each other, and go out into the world to kill and dislocate indigenous beings just like real life.

    The rule is . . Keep Fighting to Survive or Die in Despair
    Kill for Honor or Rage Quit for True Peace

    (despair because item lost on PK and keep getting grief from PK er)

    On the story it seem war only happen for Humans and Winged Elves.
    Tideborn and Untamed love peace, though Tideborn kinda love to be silent . . b:chuckle

    Yeah, kinda. The full story (told to you through your starter level quests) is quite fun, though also kinda standard-fantasy schlock.

    Each starter race gets a different viewpoint on it, too.

    We should say thank you to Wraiths.
    These world will not called Perfect World if there no villain to be bullied.

    or

    Maybe it will be better if Winged Elves and Human keep fighting each other.
    (while Tideborn and Untamed act as mercenary or just small tribe)
    These game may have more excitement . .

    humans win!!!


    anyways.... there is kinda no reason for us to even be killing the wraith. think about it. they just kinda stand there. all day. then we show up and start hacking away at them. if anything.... we're the ones at fault.

    Talking about Human & Winged Elves war . .
    There a nice fan fiction named Blood Rose written by BlckMagik
    http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4838697/1/Blood_Rose

    (i guess the author play PWI too, but dunno if she still play or not)
    That was nice story, pretty good picturing of Human and Winged Elves when they still in war.

    I hate everyone:

    Untamed (aka Furbies) smell of wet dog fur...eurgh
    Winged Elves....poncy fairies dressing up in tights. Besides, who trusts anyone with pointy ears
    Tideborn.....yuck! slimy, stink of fish, and got no friends
    Humans....untrustyworthy feckers. They'll kill you as soon as look at you, so make sure you get in there first!
    Wraiths...pffffft!

    Very true.
    Human were way to greedy and Winged Elves has way to high pride.
    Untamed were true peace lover, while Tideborn fight alone prevent wraiths from invading Pan Gu world ? b:infuriated

    LoL...fine I guess I'll have to tell the story all over again...here what u need to know :

    Wizards hate BM..bec flying is a wiz thing and they hate the idea of a human like a BM can use same mounts to fly !!!

    Veno's hate barb ,it's the reason why they go heavy armors ..bec in Lost city barbarians lock the veno's in the house only for cooking and cleaning ,so barb don't encourage the women movement also barb don't like equality between male and female !!!

    Archers hate clerics since the begining ..u wanna know why...it was the idea of archers to have a 2 feathers on head as a hat " they think it make them look cool" but clerics stole the idea and now they have feathers 2 !!!

    I don't know what is going on between sin's and psychics but I'm working on it !!!

    Umm in the trailer it says Tideborn come from the Northeastern Seas. Aren't they in the Southeast?

    And also the original PW story leads no room for another sentient race really. Since the world was created by Pan Gu and he created all the races, but there is no mention of the Tideborn... That must mean they are from another world/created by someone else. Or somehow related to Wraiths.

    The entirety of this game's lore is seriously a couple paragraphs. Did you really expect well-thought out story without mistakes and contradictions?

    It's like the fantasy garbage people write in high school.

    Yes, that kinda true . . i don't feel PW lore is nice.
    It pretty one sided, where everyone else is good people and only 1 kind of bad guy.
    There not much mentioning of Famous Legendary people, to few of them makes PW world seem still young.
    After Wraiths disappear, Why not making arc where people start fighting again ?
    When human start to become greedy again and taking over other race territory, and we might see a hybrid breed of different race just like winged tiger as new race.

    I want to see your "so called justice" in the battlefield.

    There's no recurring characters, no actual villians, no backstory.

    It's just "HAY GAIS THESE R BAD KIL TEHM?!?!?"

    Maybe my other MMOs have spoiled me?

    Finish the past maps culti chains (OHT, Unicorn Forest, Valley of the Scarred, Moonshade Desert) and it actually explains it pretty well.

    Well, in RPGs, you go South from the South part, and you arrive at the Northern part of the map. So going S from SE, brings you to NE and vice-versa? Oh wait, that does not work in PW.

    I joke, of course; old-school videogames reference.
    Maintenance time. Please choose a line:

    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.
