horrible reviews

I agree with Kep, I found pretty much ALL of the reviews to be mispresentative jokes. The couple that had something truly good to say only pretty much said "It's a good game." which tells absolutely nothing. Most of the reviews seem to be "You can't lvl past 50/60 without paying, it's ****".

Hummh..... *logs into her lvl 91 cleric with full TT gear she BOUGHT with coin and mold sword* No.... no.... I think you can get past those without paying any RL money, I know this because I have never bought a single Gold and never will.

Not a free to play? If this ain't f2p, I've no idea what is...

And the other thing, you don't NEED a charm, mp, or hp. You can get by without one, I just prefer having an HP charm with me, helps a lot... and yes, I can use and buy charms without using RL money myself.

To wrap it up: The reviews in question are.... *drumroll* horse dung.

For a good overall review I might recommend this. Even if I may not agree 100% with it, it's still a good representative to pwi.

Many people write negative reviews, because:
1.) They got scammed in-game (their fault), they rage quit and hate the game like hell.
2.) They are too stupid to understand it / didn't spend enough time in-game.
3.) They have no life / nothing better to do just to write **** online.

Perfect World is not perfect (lol), but it's one of the most popular F2P MMOs. If it was that bad, we would have a lot less players already. I've been playing MMOs since 2004 and I've tried many free ones, and this is the only MMO that made me stay for almost a year now (I usually quit all games in a few weeks).

What I hate is that people mainly attack PWI because of the cash shop. If you're smart, you don't have to spend money on this game. I spent 20 dollars and only got mount and fashion. I saved up for my Herc and gear just by grinding and TTing. Sure, it took more time, but why hurry in an MMO? People who whine about the cash shop are idiots.

And BTW, I personally hate WoW with a passion because it has hideous characters, awkward controls and lame gameplay and I still don't write negative reviews about it, because I know the kids who play it won't stop playing just because I hate their overrated ****. :P Plus I don't wanna WASTE time on things I don't like. Even if people write crappy reviews, that won't stop us playing and won't stop others giving PWI a chance.

Wizards are woefully underpowered

o-o

to the OP: why should someone have to read reviews to have an opinion about if the game is getting boring? I can judge the game myself....

and some comments:

1) do you really think that there is a game where you cant pay to win? and i'm not talking about f2p only but p2p as well.

2)identical quests? ok, sure, in the end all you do is kill some monsters or fly around delivering stuff. and sure, some monsters are (almost) the same. personally i dont really care

3)"There is nothing to do once the level cap has been hit and you've obtained the best gear"
technically nobody hit the level cap, as far as i know there are only 103.
also, nobody got the best gear (warsoul).
but even if someone got them (in other servers i guess) I dont really think that there is nothing to do.
but even if there is nothing to do, I believe that doing all that will take a plenty good time UNLESS you just bought them. and I think that maybe that's the problem of the writer. they just bought their stuff (nix) and reached the end in a few days. now they sit there and wonder where is the fun. well, the fun is in the journey and not the end. now, about those that reached the end without cashopping, even if i'm sure that there are plenty of things to do (TW, help guilds, nirvana?, warsoul? xD) i can understand that maybe they are bored. well, maybe it's time to go, it's a game, not a life... btw it looks like there are implemented new stuff in pwi so maybe they will be more to do...

4)"****ing ridiculous features such as the ability to create a shop the size of a small town"
seriously if this kid cant realise that something is an april's fool joke how do you expect his review to be taken into consideration by pw? lols...

5)pay money to level up faster = pay money to loose content just to get a virtual achievement...

6)class impalance. "Psychics, Venomancers and Archers have a huge PvP advantage. Wizards are woefully underpowered"
orly.....

7)about the economy. I cannot really judge since i paid RL$ (on the other hand mostly for wings,mounts,fashion) currently i'm playing around and looks like i make quite a lot of money. not as much as i would wish but i think that i'll be able to get a decent end game weapon. and i love it

1) do you really think that there is a game where you cant pay to win? and i'm not talking about f2p only but p2p as well.

Yep there is at least one. Wealth have no impact in pvp. The only way to gain
unfair advantage in pvp is to use bots... but it's a very very bad idea:

b:bye

how about paying ppl to farm my equipment?

All max armors/weapons have the same stats and are easy to get. Won't change
a thing. b:pleased

Boring? nah.

''Frustrating'' is the word we're looking for here.

That's why it's one of the better designed PvP MMOs out there, where people have more equal advantages since that game is mostly based around PvP. Skill and tactics should decide over gear, cash, or time-committed and **** like that.

sorry if i interpret this wrong but are you saying using RL cash to get items to level up is a waste? if so then what about those who blow 50$ on alcohol every week? lol if people can do THAT then i could probably afford 20 bucks a month to get me a few hyper stonesb:laugh

hm, what i had in mind was some ppl that oracle to 80, hyper to 100 and then Q.Q because there is nothing to do

i dont think that hypers are bad, assume that you do frost runs for exp
i'm sure that they are exciting but ok, after a couple of runs i guess that it gets a bit boring. so you hyper, get the rewards and save time
and I dont think that they are bad for the game either, the only source of gold is ppl buying zen after all.

actually, I dont really mind, do whatever you want/pleases you
after all, I hypered a legion attack to get to 79 and get crystal light xD

i agree wholeheartedly it's kind of funny to watch people whine about nothing to do at level 100 when they are only 2 months into the gamexD. mmorpg are made to level up at a slower pace so in theory, by the time your reach high level, another expansion would pop up and voila! more content to keep you going.

personally i use oricales when a REALLY fall on hard time with exp (like dying reapeatly due to oracle noob barb in an fb>_>) i level up till quests buld up a boom! quests to run:P at least that's what i did before the hyper stones came out:P not i just kill mobs that are in the pub quest area:P

on another note, i can't see how people can say there is nothing to do in the game after level 100. i say stop being so selfish and help other ppl. and if that don't work then try leveling another class:/

I agree to this and to Thanos' post. It's funny that some even aim to be close to capping for PvPing purposes, but eventually even get bored from it.

Hmmm, I should return to questing. Old man Leth stayed at lv 65 for too long now.

Uhm no, it's not like after you done all quests there's much to do anyway. I get all quests for a level done usually a day after I level. Yes for fun, but it's simply not enough content.

And when I turn 86 I won't even be able to do gamma anymore. Even less content. Great.

Yeah, you can feel the emptiness flowing.
