If you are a drop of fresh blood in the MMO world, you will find
it is not as easy as a single player RPG. Due to the complex
interactions with the UI, hostile or friendly players and the
general lack of a proper tutorial, many gamers find themselves at a
loss upon entering a new online world. At this point, even Never
Winter Nights series can be easier to get started. Above all, if
you've played one MMO before, anyone expecting something they're
used to can be completely different when it comes to a new game.
Your experience may be completely different. That's why the
developers adopt some methods to attract new gamers. Without which,
sometimes it is impossible for you to survive, let along to become
a well-known hero.
I'll show you the eye candies available in some MMOs below,
hopefully that can be a good guide for choosing which fantasy world
to find a new future; even if you are a master of that game, I
don't think it will do you any harm to look backwards and reread
your story, the good old days are always sweet.
Aion
Aion is an MMO in which you can play as two races. You can
customize your character a lot by making them ultra big or quite
small or everything in between. Starting off the game, you are
engaged with amazing scenes and beautiful character designs. Aion
is the god that created the game and everything in it. The game is
definitely one of the most beautiful games I have ever played.
The fabulous visual effects impress both technically and
artistically. That should be the voice of notice all gamers, don't
miss me!
World of Warcraft
As the most well-known game producer in the world, the brand
Blizzard says it all. Honestly speaking, the second World of
Warcraft expansion, Wrath of Lich King doesn't do anything for new
players. But can it be a problem big enough to stop new gamers from
stepping into this big world?
When it comes to Blizzard, nothing is impossible. The pact is
sealed, do you stand ready?
Eudemons Online
Concerning to this free to play MMO, what can we expect from
Eudemons Online?
1. There are several ways (which can be a small but interesting
mission or task) for you to get Double Exp Time. Ask other players
to enlighten you also sounds like a good idea. And the teachers
will also benefit from their good deeds. So maintaining a good
relationship with other players is the first lesson you ought to
learn.
2. Several packs with lots of gifts are awaiting your arrival.
After you have reached level 50, you will receive a Morning Star
Pack, Glade Pack, Stimulus Pack, and a Holy Light Pack (VIP only)
according to your level, which contains good gear, beautiful
dresses, excellent Mounts, and special Big Sales items. This is
also a good strategy to summon old players to join its new
expansion Demon Rising. The biggest problem of free to play MMOs is
that you need to pay lots of cash for your upgrades. Now, Eudemons
Online says no to that practice. Encouraging? Take a shot!
Fallen Earth
Lots of people play video games because they are not like real
life. People have enough real life to deal with on their own that
they want to escape into a game where they can cast spells, take
800 hits and not wind up dead, or any of the impossible things
games lets us achieve. In the real word, someone could be
frightened by a dog, but in a game, he or she will face down a
dragon 10 times bigger without even breaking a sweat.
But there are still some who prefer a dash of reality in their
fantasy life. That's why Fallen Earth was born.
This game introduces reality to a virtual world. Getting hurt by
a sword once is pretty much crippling if not outright fatal. Fall
too far and you don't suffer some uniform amount of damage across
your whole body -- you frequently wind up breaking your legs or
your spine, and it can be a slow and painful recovery process, if
you ever recover.
Fallen Earth has been redesigning its beginner zones to make for
a more compelling new player experience. Would you like to act a
real person in this new virtual world?
Darkfall
Like Conquer Online and several free to play MMOs, Darkfall has
recently offered new player protection. At this point, newbies will
not have to worry about being one-shotted from well-armed hostiles.
Though only a few hours, this optional choice can help you avoid
the game opening gank that just may put you off this FFA PK
title.
Considering new gamers have no skills and no real weapons, this
strategy will prevent them from feeling frustration and tedium from
getting killed in the starting areas when they are only level
1.
Conclusion:
Game developers are willing to try anything as long as it gets
new people to play their game. It is not a bad thing; at least we
can read the news and choose the game we think will be most
enjoyable. This article is the sequel to my 8 Long-lasting MMORPGs
piece. Thanks for reading.
