So I downloaded the game to give a go again

Post by Barotix »

This game is archaic as fuck. It's a relic, a dinosaur, old, outdated, and bad. I guess when you've played better games it's hard to downgrade, one would have to be a true fanatic to give the old and "improved" SRO a chance.

joymax needs people like you as the head of the game's development department.

It's not SO bad. I wish they would incorporate WASD movement though. But that would force them to rearrange some of the shortcuts (Action / Skills).

Isn't this the guy that was on a Joymax bot ban list about a year ago? Maybe try and get past level 40 before having such an opinion about the game. This game is in better shape than it has been in years.

Seems like to me you got bored of whatever else was out there and wanted to try out an old game that you once like....Now you find it to be boring too....So in other words your life is kinda boring right now. Don't blame the game.

They're angsty because they got no one to play with. The game is a lot of fun when you got people to play with

I don't know you but I can't agree with you, I liked Aion but that's scrap now, I've never played WoW as for me at least, I would probably wind up with an even higher time commitment than SRO. 3-4 hrs per night is plenty, wish I could put in more time.

The ONE thing I think everyone agrees on is the skill SP/XP gain/ratio. Seems to me without that requirement there would be less need to bot.

Its like you were expecting the game to have changed completly.. You downloaded SRO, not SRO 2.

SRO was released in 2005. Are you comparing it with games from 2010? :palm:

And SRO does beat some games released in 2010, but not all for sure...

And if you got a lv 37 char to play with, and lost all your online friends since you quit year ago, i'm not quite surprised your few minutes play experience was bad.

About SP/XP thing, its just that people think the fun is when you are capped, but its not. You can enjoy the game at any level, as long as you have people to play with. So even if they would change XP ratio, it wouldnt change anything

Despite what everyone that still plays says the graphics are bad, the animations are smooth when they don't fuck up, the movement is terrible, the community is worse than the movement. The only thing that this game has going for it is the pvp system, when you aren't getting ganked by multiple people, and jobbing, which hardly ever happens anymore.
