    Seriously i'm not trying to be rude... but why do you think the score is so low? You think that the top rated games are top rated because of millions of fan boys, and that their just trashing Archlord because their mean spirited?
    The whole reason for this web site is for players to give their honest ratings on a game, and to average out those ratings.
    Archlord has a low rating of 6.6 because it's DOG DOO. It SUCKS, its mindless, repetitive grinding - no reason to play, plus the pvp is horribly implemented. CM is not the developer, and it shows in promised updates that never get delivered. The game had the sounds of crickets, (everyone left) until they decided to make it free.
    The game didn''t get better because they made it free.
    But heh, whatever, obviously the majority of people who played the game and rated it don't know what thier talking about, and you a guy who hasn't played it - does.
    Shakes head in disbelief....
     
    Unfortunatly, the ratings on this site had never represented quality, unless you want to argue that Everquest 2 is the best mmorpg? Thats what I thought. It indeed seems that the majority of people who played the game and rated it don't know what their talking about. There are a tons of comments "I played for 1 days and it sucks" and "I played it for 10 minutes and then quit like omg!". But anyway, it seems more people are actually willing to give the game a fair chance now that its free, as the ratings went up from 6,3 to 6,6 in just a few weeks.



    Actually I played this game until lvl 52 - enough to form a very good opinion of it. Also EQ2 is a very good game.

    and yes by and large you can trust the ratings on this site.

    AL gets a low score because it deserves it. Plain and simple. EQ2, WoW, Guild Wars, EVE all get high marks because they deserve them. Pretty straight forward imo.

    Oh in that case, Archlord is a good game, because its ratings keep increasing more and more, so its getting more and more good scores. in fact, it seems the majority if the scores are good, or else it would fall below 5.0. so even by your definition ArchLord is a very decent game.



    There currently is no way to check the real quality of ArchLord. Ratings on mmorpg.com are miles off (Everquest 2 and City of Heroes better then WoW? hehe, yeah right), and real reviewers never got past the lower levels (the highest level reviewer I have seen is level 20, which can be reached in 1 day). currently there only is oppinion.

The reviewer made it to a whooping level 7 (which takes roughly 30 to 60 minutes if your playing for the first time)

    Never played Archlord myself, but those are kinda ridicilous reviews. That's the same as saying that some food is bad just because it looks bad.

    Archlord is a game not worth the money to buy. it took them forever to make the 1st patch of the game and moving around with the keyboard doesnt let you turn in certain angles. for most of the quests it tells you to kill an ___ amount of monsters or go to the ____ NPC. dont buy the game i regret buying it and the people who are playing right now just play because they bought the game and dont want to waste the money.

    Do you even read your own post before you hit the submit button? Do you HONNESTLY believe all the people playing (and also paying for chantra) for months now are just playing because they don't want to waste the money? Are you truly THAT narrow minded?



    Oh by the way, World of Warcraft, Everquest 2 and City of XX also has nothing but go kill "XX" monster or go to XX NPC quests, yet I don't see you complain about those. weird huh?

    Lets just say if I went to a gaming store and saw Archlord, Guild Wars, BF2142 all together in a line, I wouldn't pick Archlord, unless you like your games to feel like typical grinders, by all means it would get better end game, if you can last that long without going completely insane.

    Currently Playing: Everything but MMORPGs
    Cancelled: L2, FFXI, VSoH, LotRO, WAR, WoW
    Looking Forward To: SW:TOR

    Play the game Yourself, and decide for Yourself. Other people's opinions are just that, Other people's opinions. Some people dig on asian styled mmo's , and some don't. This is an asian styled mmo (lots-o-grinding), if you don't like it, then you know what to do. Kick Rocks.

    I completely agree Gameloading. There are a decent amount of people playing this game. If you don't like this game, then don't play it. I don't understand people getting on a forum page for a game they don't play, just to flame it on how bad it sucks. This in turn ruins any future people who might have tried it , and (oh my gosh!!) maybe even liked it, because somebody who shouldn't be qualified to give a sound judgement on a style of game they hated coming into in the first place. The people on this forum who are flaming this game have stated in one form or another that they do not enjoy korean styled mmos, so why would you take advice from them about a korean styled mmo? It is also rediculous that it is being compared to western styled mmos. And no Gameloading, they would never complain about anything in the games they DO play. Stop the hate. Peace.

    the reason we have a review board is to help prevent other players from playing dog doo (like this title) and wasting their time (like we did)

    We are entitled to our opinion as much as you are, if you like it great - but the majoirty of players don't and for very good reason, the game SUCKS.

    Not just a little....

    A LOT.

    Poorly implemented pvp that discourages pvp and horrid pve where you farm, and farm and farm, for what? Exactly.

    This game has nothing to hold a players interest past 2-3 weeks or lvl 50. NOTHING.

    Spin it any way you want, but yah the game is that bad.

    Your such a hypocrit. You keep yelling "Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion!" yet you try to keep people from trying the game, and you keep pretending that your opinion is fact. We know all about your little "Anti-ArchLord" vanguard, and what was your noble goal again? ah yes, to warn people, because you assumed "Hey, if I don't like it, then they must not like it either!"

    So your about the last person that should talk about "opinions". Your a sad little man zigmund. It seems it has plenty of content to keep people playing after 3 weeks, and even after level 50, since many of them still do. Learn that your opinion is not fact zigmund.
