  • Asheron's Call

    It's an MMORPG that I've been playing since 1999, and they just recently started giving out a free trial (downloadable).
    If you'd like to give it a shot, here's the link http://trial.ac.turbine.com/

    This is one of the most unique games I've ever played. I've played this game more than WoW and SS combined. You can check out some videos on youtube for the gameplay and teasers. There's a couple cinematics as well.

    This game is updated every month with new content, like an entire new expansion, EVERY SINGLE MONTH. The Dev teams work very hard every day for this game, and they actually implement good ideas that players submit on their forums. I actually used to be an Advocate on this game (It's like a Dev, but it's more of a customer service thing in-game). I guess you can call it a Moderator, lol.

    The maximum level is 275, there's PvP (no factions, just everyone for themselves) and PvE. Although, being PvP is optional on all servers except Darktide. (to go PvP (Red/PK) must swear allegiance to Bael'Zharon, the shadow 'god' so that you are no longer under the protection of Asheron)

    The Lore (Story) is probably one of the best fantasy storylines in any game that I've ever played. With each monthly update there are updates to the storyline, live events and quests.

    The possibilities with this game are endless, and it's endless fun. You are not restricted to high-level armor. So you can wear the armor of a level 275 as a level 1, but you might not be able to activate the magic on each item, because to activate those spells you must have certain skills raised. One of the most unique things in the game that I haven't seen in other games, is that you can actually DODGE spells, arrows, and thrown weapons.

    The server I play on is Darktide, and my name is "Grael of Magic" in the allegiance "The IRA".

    You can buy apartments, cottages, villas, and for the larger monarchies, Mansions. This game is probably one of the best games out there that is not recognized at all. Hope to see you guys soon. ^-^

              Here is why this game is so unique.....

              *Melee vs. *Mage PvP:
              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oAv6XZPAC4

              Mage vs. Mage PvP:
              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXlLj4tULNE
              (It's a relatively short duel, considering this was a carebear server and they didn't know how to REALLY fight)


              Random people jumping:
              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUtynBPY-oA

              The physics in this game are so real, if you jump from high distances in this game and land on someone, they take X amount of damage. As you can see, in the last jump of the video, he landed on his friend, and he died. :P


              To see one of, what I've seen, the best PK (Player Killer)/PvP mage on the server (Darktide, the only Pure PK server, where you can go anywhere and be killed by anyone), go here:

              http://dt.acpvp.com/

              and download the videos:

              Tossing PvP 2.wmv
              Tossing PvP.wmv
              (You get to see him fight alone against several opponents at a time, including archers, cross-bowmen, mages, and other melees) I in particular like the very end of "Tossing PVP 2" when he had an entire guild trying to kill him.



              And here's a random fight between two allegiances in a dungeon known as Egg Orchard

              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oPHYt-cU64


              Believe it or not, this game doesn't revolve around PK. It actually revolves around one of the best fantasy storylines in all MMORPGs or any other game, and yes, I do say it is quite better than final fantasy storylines.

              With PvE (Player vs. Environment), you can literally SOLO hordes of monsters ALL AT ONCE, even as a Melee character or Archer!


              *Melee: A warrior that fights solely using weapons like Swords, Maces, Axes, Unarmed Combat Weapons, and Staves.
              *Mage: Uses Wands, Orbs, and Staves to cast magical spells on other players or monsters.

                  I believe Darktide, Frostfell, and Harvestgain are the most populated servers. The game has changed QUITE a bit since launch, but nothing really bad about it.

                  Server populations are at around 400-600 each server, and increasing recently due to their free trial.

                  Be sure to check out http://forums.ac.turbine.com/ to read any questions people have about the game and also please by all means post up there and say hi There's an entire section devoted to the Free Trial
