Soooo disappointed! I've been playing MMORPGs since Ultima Online was first released. As a huge fan of Lineage 1, I had very high hopes for this game and I'm sad to report that the magic is just not there... this game is BORING. In Lineage 1, there were just more things to do. For example anyone could tame and level dogs and make a decent living selling them. Elves and fighters could make equipment. If you didn't feel like leveling or making things, you could go bet on the slime races. There were fun items in the game like spell wands that anyone could use. I remember finding one that turned other players into random animals or mobs. I kept it on me a long time and used it to turn people who stole from me into chicken or cows--even my victims found it hilarious. I remember learning about a "secret" passageway between the dungeon on Talking Island and the dungeon on the mainland. What a fun adventure it was trying to get through that as a newbie... Where was all this in Lineage 2? Nowhere to be found. Just leveling, leveling, leveling--and constant arguments. Farmers are players who kill the same stuff over and over to sell adena online to other players. Sometimes there are so many farmers in one area that actual players cannot play at all. Very frustrating and very ugly. The arguing and fighting is non stop. Overall a bad atmosphere and a boring game. I hope they can turn it around.
