Ragnarok Online 2 Review

Now that I've gotten my hands on Ragnarok Online 2, it's time for a review. In a glance, Ragnarok Online 2 seems to be a competent MMO especially for a F2P title. They have of course redesigned the gameplay so that it no longer plays like the old Ragnarok Online and that is definitely great. No more slaughtering thousands of mobs to level up and the combat system is also quite improved. It shouldn't be boring right? we'll see.

Ragnarok Online 2

Ragnarok Online is a pretty popular MMORPG especially in Asian market. I still remembered the old days where most gamers in my country plays the first RO. Good times, good times :)
However, MMO has evolved since then and I can't stand the first RO's gameplay anymore. Now, Playpark has launched Ragnarok Online 2 for the international(well, actually SEA) market. Is it any good? or would it fall to the same "asian grindfest MMO" like so many others? I'll get back to you after I finished downloading the game. :P

Apparently the game is either very popular that Playpark's server can't handle the load or they just have a bad server because even authenticating my account takes quite a while and sometimes you can't even load their site. We'll see how this goes.
