Dragonica Online News – The Magician

January 11th, 2010

  Dragonica Online’s job class system is composed of four basic job classes that can be promoted to 16 unique advanced jobs. During character creation, players choose a main job class – Warrior, Magician, Dragonica Gold, Archer or Thief. Each job class specializes in a unique set of attacks and skills and allows adventurers to customize their character based on their combat preference and style.

After choosing a job class, players battle monsters and bosses to gain experience and master unique skills to progress to advanced job tiers. Although each class progression retains the core combat style and characteristics of the starter class, each advanced job has unique attributes, skills and items only available to that job. At level 20, players face the challenging decision of which advanced class to pursue and master.

Destiny Online News – One Year Anniversary

January 11th, 2010

  Destiny Online is an MMORPG featuring Beautiful 2D Graphics, Exotic Weapons, Powerful Skills, Loyal Pets, Versatile Mounts, Fierce PK, Tribal War, Online Romance and Wild Wedding Party. Now it has been a great year since last summer when Destiny Online was first launched. We experienced lots of fun together and those memories will be with us forever.

It is the first MMO that “Pays U 2 Play”, meaning that for each 2 hours that you are continuously logged in the game, you will earn 2 Gold Points. The Gold Points that you accumulated by being online can be used to purchase valuable items from the Destiny Item Mall. And now with the new twist of it, the brand new Master-Slave program, you can even earn more Gold without doing any more work.

Mortal Online News – First Interview

January 10th, 2010

 Mortal Online is a first-person sandbox MMO set in a believable fantasy environment. Although the game is not necessarily about PvP, its core is built around player skill and PvP as opposed to experience points, levels and a PvP-mode glued on top. Mortal Online revolves around player-to-player interaction more than solo-journeys and quests; it has full loot, sandbox crafting, housing and very seldom follows the streamlined design-rules and automated systems of modern cookie-cutter MMO’s. In short, it’s a niche skill-based fantasy game for a mature audience. The game is currently in Beta stage with nearly 10.000 accounts.

It’s very difficult to describe Mortal Online in a few sentences as it is very different from most of the MMOG’s out there. Now please understand I don’t use that cliché for marketing purposes, it simply is a niche game that some will like because of its unique approach and some won’t because it’s too different from their style of play or what they are used to. The game does not necessarily build on or “learn” from the errors or the steps taken by big-name MMO’s

Dark Age of Camelot News – Jeff Hickman on WAR, DaoC and the Future

January 10th, 2010

  Jeff Hickman is Executive Producer at EA Mythic. He has worked on several titles including Dark Age of Camelot and Warhammer Online. Jeff gave a presentation at AGDC which outlined how players will purchase and play games in the future and what design ideas we might see years from now. He also touched on some of the areas where Warhammer went wrong and explained some improvements they are trying to make for the future on all of Mythic’s products. After his presentation I had a chance to interview Jeff, sadly the video interview was lost, sorry Jeff, but I’ll try to highlight some of the points he made.

Jeff explained that digital distribution is important in the future for games. There will always be boxed sales, but with services like STEAM and other digital download companies, getting games directly online easier than ever to do. In the future, more and more people will be downloading games online than going to the store to buy them.
