After having taken a quick break from Ragnarok Online I decided to go back and see what had changed.To my amazement it added new class advancements more gear and had gone from pay to play to free to play with a cash shop.Walking around I remembered the old times when fellow players would sit around in Prontera and chat about anything that came to mind.This had not changed.Players are still friendly towards one another and you will receive invites to parties from random people.And for a game with dated graphics it is still robust with new and veteran players.
Game play wise it is the same point and click game play,but surprisingly it still entertains one for countless hours.The skill tree system they have is remarkable and allows for experimentation without consequence since you will usually have enough points to get the important skills.Ragnarok Online is heavily party oriented if you wish to acquire better gear or survive without having to spend minutes sitting after killing a few mobs.
Customization of your character though is limited to accessories and the color of your sprite.No matter what you equip the appearance will remain the same until you complete a job advancement.Though the sprites are very nicely done you will get tired of seeing the same thing but just in a different color.
The card system that Ragnarok has is very enjoyable and allows for you to customize gear to fit your needs.Whether it be doing more damage,adding an elemental effect to your armor or weapons,or just boosting your stats, the card system will keep you busy even after reaching cap level.Certain boss monsters known as "MVP" Monsters are difficult to kill but a MVP card is worth a lot.One example is that a card from an MvP can allow you to see assassins that are invisible or give you 4x the amount of hp you had before.
All in all Ragnarok Online is worth trying out for any pc gamer out their looking for a game that will challenge and reward them.
