thinking of downlading the game

*coughtrollthreadcough* dont bother with pwi, getting rare to find friendly player and lowbie zone are deadly quiet

There are plenty of low levels to group with if you plan to charge cash and power level. You will all be at mid or end game within a week depending on how much you charge.

If you plan on starting fresh, you better be planning on soloing if you plan to play legit. There is not really anyone who actually "plays the game" in the lower levels. If you plan to spend hundreds, or thousands of dollars on the game, hop on board. Fair warning, if you DO decide to play legit, it will take you so long that you may find the servers closing for good, right as you reach the top and start to plan out your end game. trololol.

run away as fast as you can not from just this game any game pwe makes.. they are fun for the first 5 minutes till you realise no one plays them everyone just sits in safe zzones cash shopping buying exp rooms as it is in this game there is no one out doing actual quests and worldly content...

I resent that! I busted my *** for 3 YEARS to get to 95, and I have several low-level characters I am working up as well (the RIGHT way)

there are still actual players, but they're not very common

The game is nearly dead due to constant fail from PWI....nuf sed

if you plan on stating make the right choice and make either barb or ep or you might hate some bh100 partys and you might never get ur culty done haha.

but sin is the money making class end game that is 100 but have to invest some coin on it.

little cash mind you but ya not fully free to be op as fish is alredy op

What do you mean when you ask if it is worth it? This game has literally no worth as it is free to play. The download is free so how can you attach worth to it? Just download it, if you do not like it, uninstall it, if you do like it keep playing.

Do not ask others to make yourmind up for you, that just makes you seem as if you are nothing but cattle.

Well, this game used to be fun when I first started in '08 (did play PWMY before that). Ended up making my main in '09, things were still good in '09. Plenty of people all around, friendly, helpful etc... Now, I would certainly recommend if you are going to play, roll a PvE server, ever since sins and or rank 9 PvP is SO un-balanced it's not even funny. This is especially important since the company is SO LAME that they do not offer a server transfer service (like most other MMO's do)! Other than that I also wouldn't expect to find too much help or populated lower level areas as all people do now-a-days is power level and or LIVE in one cave (FCC). That being said I could go on and on and on saying good and bad things about the game, but of course in the end it's your call. Everything I've stated here is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge. Also, remember FREE TO PLAY = PAY TO WIN, especially here and in PvP (rank 9 anyone?) and unless you're willing to literally not have a life outside the game (or willing to drop the $1500.00 on rank 9) you'll never obtain it anyway. I STILL till this day love the game itself, I just HATE the company that runs it, and what they're doing to it (flushing it down the toilet)! That also being said, this is like an official private server (they may as well sell the GM capes and weapons in the boutique at this rate)!

I haven't been playing in months now, but when I last did, I went to Broken Bow Bluff and there were no players at all. The same goes for Lost (starter city for barbs and venoes). As others said already, you can see the decline even in West Arch, it used to be laggy like hell but nowadays there is no lag anymore.

If you really want to play this game, be prepared to powerlevel or to spend hours looking for a squad. And once you finally get your squad together, half of the players will be undergeared, underskilled and generally unable to play their class thanks to fast leveling.

With some luck there will be a high level player in the squad who soloes your dungeon, this gets the job done but doesn't help you learn to play your class, and it isn't actually what you have come for - you have come for playing the game right?

Without a high level player in the squad, be prepared for 3 or 4 idiots running in different directions, aggroing mobs and yelling at the single cleric for heals, to no avail because the cleric can be in one place only. Usually this ends with a ragequit from the cleric, and you are back to square one, looking for a cleric, but the only one online is the one you just burned.

If you think playing like this is fun, welcome to the game!

Considering all the replies, no wonder the game is "dying"! Since you have that kind of attitude towards new players. I quess the forums reveal how the community is, after all.

It seems like no one should be even allowed to try it.

Nonsense. Everyone has free will. The download costs nothing and no one can physically stop the OP from disregarding everything said in this thread and trying it out for themselves. But he/she asked for opinions first and that's what they got. So if you have something positive to say about the game, do so. Thus when someone says something negative, the OP will have a balanced opinion.

But oh yeah... I forgot. The current "crusade" around here is that if you don't have anything good to say about the game, then don't say anything at all. b:avoid

Fat lot of good that'll do for new players who will naturally want to hear all sides.

well, welcome to the pw. if u wanna play on pve server then go to dreamweaver server, if eu server then german one. not sure which is most active pvp server. in dreamweaver server u will lots of low lvls, low lvl dungeons going on, super bored high lvls who r free to help, new guilds poping up weekly that recruit any level players. and ppl been spamming forums about game being dead for years, it havent died yet, people just play on quiet servers and whine. but yeah, not many people do quests lately, they just buy dungeon for exp, so you can choose to quest and lvl up or merchant/farm crafting mats for selling and buy them too, they are kinda cheap too. some guilds also gives free dungeons(fc) to guildies

It all depends on who you get to know and what guild you join. Personally I plan rerolling a wiz on another server and play the right way for a challenge. Don't listen to other peoples opinions because thats just what they are....opinions. Download and play. You never know what you might enjoy. b:pleased

if you are willing to pay cash, this game might be good. otherwise, its completely dead if you are not lvl100
