    I'd describe my short experience with the game as utterly bizarre. For a mobile title, the graphics menu's and audio all seemed really good.

For a mobile title, the graphics menu's and audio all seemed really good. The short introduction sequence had me playing with a fully geared and levelled character and the experience was great. Then it thrusts you into the actual game and the entire thing is automated, the game literally plays itself rendering the entire experience pointless. You tap a quest in your sidebar, you automatically run to the npc, grab the quest, run to wherever the monsters are, kill each one then run back to the quest giver without ever imputing any commands yourself other than that initial tap.

    I decided to give it a second chance, and got hit with a 1000 player queue to log in, on my "best" server.

    It gets 2 points for having nice graphics and menu's, but why would anyone consider waiting around for hours to not play your game Netmarble?    … Expand

    This is not a lineage
    This is only game for squeezing money.
    All that is common here is texture.

    Graphic motion is great, but the game engine itself fails a little bit, however Ive seen a lot of people happy with the game exploring mobiles

    To be fair its not the lineage game you think it is. Because i rate it a 8 will not say its bad. Its good. You can let the computer play the combat. Its no needing to control your champion or avatar. But a good player knows you need. Most of the time you do not. But you have at least the option to play normal.

But you have at least the option to play normal. All other games are based on click this building click to upgrade wait and the cycle continues. However this game have not that kind of play style it have crates but tbh here you do not need to wait. You get every day great rewards only to login. To many people are spoiled that this is a pay to win. And frankly what mobile game is not? the single play games perhaps. This is random you can get a loot that give you the rare you need or you spend $$$$ for enchant and it breaks the item and start over. Its random people keep that in mind if you think spending is needing. Now the review.

    First the main story is full auto voice. Yes there are line of text in it. Great music great sound effect epic graphics for a mobile game.
    Main story take you 2 months to compleet. level 120 quests. If you login and do them every day. Daily farming *do everything take you up to 4 hours ar less depend on what you want to do but it take you at least 4 hours to farm. After that you earn almost none xp or rewards. Keep that in mind if you want to play this for real.
    The pve content is like i say 2 months    … Expand

    Pros: has the OST (Original Sound Track) from Lineage-2 which brings nostalgic memories of the days when I was totally immersed in the original L2 back in 2006-2008 as a teenager. 2 points for that, but that's it. To best enjoy this "game" - just close your eyes and listen to the soundtrack. Because:

    Cons: this game has been dumbed down to a depth never seen before.

    Cons: this game has been dumbed down to a depth never seen before. Don't get me wrong - I didn't expect that a mobile game in 2017 would be as complex as a 2000s MMORPG of the genre's "golden age", nor as grindy (thank you very much, L2's grind was HARD, but it at least had purpose).

    But - L2R has "auto-questing".
    Simply put: while other MMOs try to resist botting - L2R just provides botting as a feature! I can't even... Renzokuken below described exactly what that is.    … Expand

    The only issues that I’ll address is my bad experiences. This game Lags often, glitches often, is very slow especially when there’s either a lot of players in one zone or a lot of monsters at once fighting. Don’t wanna do Temple of Guardian because it lags a lot and is very slow sometimes I just watch my guy just stand there in place trying to run.

All the servers are crowed all the time and often the app just closes on its own, then I’ll have to start the app again for it to keep downloading the 212.5 mb over and over. It tells me my connection is bad I don’t know why when my other game apps similar to this one works perfectly with the same internet connection. It’s not letting me switch servers at all. Still keeping the app tho but so y’all know, it’s not perfect on everyone devices.… Expand

    I adore this fluid mobile MMO and have sunk considerable playtime into it. It requires the latest devices and even the iPhone X can't run the highest graphics settings. I also experience memory crashes on the iPhone X which I'm blaming on the phone at this stage (as my friends don't experience this) but be warned.

It requires the latest devices and even the iPhone X can't run the highest graphics settings. I also experience memory crashes on the iPhone X which I'm blaming on the phone at this stage (as my friends don't experience this) but be warned. It does however look absolutely gorgeous even on my middle settings. It runs well on the iPhone X (lag free until the memory locks up) but I'm unable to play at all on my iPad Mini 2.

    I play on a dedicated Oceanic server where I am in a clan with a wonderful group of new friends who play in my timezone. The game is grind-y but cuts out the tediousness by automating a lot of the day to day routine, while still allowing you to assume full control easily at any time. There is a wealth of things to do, even once the daily objectives are met, or alternatively you can make a second, third or fourth character on the same server.

    The game can easily be enjoyed for free and several top players boast they have never spent a cent. There are also affordable options for people who like to support the game without going to extremes (28-day daily diamond and gold rewards). If you have the budget, you can buy almost everything you need to catapult you to the top. However, there is suitable content and enjoyment for all budgets and you tend to play with (and against) people on a similar footing to yourself.

    Overall: for a mobile freemium MMO, Lineage 2: Revolution ticks all the right boxes and offers a fun and vibrant game. While it has its fair share of detractors, the game population is healthy and easily accommodates new players. World chat can descend into banality and the community can be troll-ish, parents beware. Finding the right clan to suit you is key and I think why I enjoy this game so much.    … Expand

The game boasts high-quality graphics that can rival a computer MMORPG’s graphics, Lineage 2: Revolutions graphics are made possible by Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 4 system. Lineage 2: Revolution features an on-the-go experience for fans of the Lineage series or new players who want an addictive game that can be played anywhere. The game is not based on who can spend the most but rather who can put in the most time to become the strongest! Players can choose from three distinct classes: Warrior, Rogue, and Mage. Within each of those classes, players can select from four gender locked races that they want to take to battle. Lineage 2: Revolution features different kinds of gameplay for each different type of player. The game has both Player versus Environment and Player versus Player or PvE and PvP for short. For the player who enjoys PvE Lineage 2: Revolution has an immense storyline that can take even the most addicted players weeks to complete! In the storyline players must progress through 18 episodes to discover more about the dark-brotherhoods intentions. Players must work hard and get stronger to save the land of Aden from the dark-brotherhood. For the players who enjoy getting in on the action and testing their skill against other players, the game boasts a wide variety of PvP. Some of the PvP features in the game include siege warfare, a PvP pit, and 1 on 1 PvP in the Arena. The game has useful sound effects that contribute to how you should move your character in battle to avoid getting killed by a bosses skill shots. The game features an “auto” feature that lets players leave the game running and earn rewards even when they can’t play because they are at work or school. This feature is very useful not only while players can't play but also when they can't find the location they need to go. Aside from the afk feature the game has a joystick for movement and attack buttons for the players to activate their character’s abilities. Lineage 2: Revolution is set in the third person and lets players experience and see more of the territory they are in. The third person view also helps players stay aware of their surroundings and make better decisions on how to move their character. It also helps the PvP players avoid walking into traps set by rival clans. In most MMORPGs there is no end but there does become a point where you become so strong that you demolish all your opponents and no one can stop you. Watching your characters combat power increase time after time and seeing how strong you've become on your journey is very satisfying and addicting to keep your character growing. If you're not playing Lineage 2: Revolution you're missing out on a great game! Lineage 2: Revolution is a definite 10/10 for me!… Expand

    This game is forcing you into 10hours+ slavery every day. You litteraly have to even let it on autofarm during your sleep to stay competetive. And also if you find out, that your character doesn't suit you and you wanna change, you basically lost everything on your previous char, since you cannot transfer staff and it's not shared. Only blue gems are shared.

    The idea to bring a classic MMO on your android/ios was not bad, but the level of cash farming or grinding was very high from the beginning. Also it does not use any exceptional game mechanic. All in all, poor by every aspect.

    With each update more pay to win. Players donates have a lot of advantage compared to the free players. Game was developed only those who spend a lot of money.

    Lineage II: Revolution is a good adaption of the MMO genre on smartphone and tablets, with a more than sufficient end result.

    Lineage 2: Revolution is a reminder that there's a reason some things haven't really been done before. If it weren't for the weird way it approaches IAPs, this would have still only rated slightly higher. It's not particularly exciting, and setting it down almost has a lifting of weights from one's back feeling to it. Grinding gets old quickly, and the micro-managing of so many different things is so overwhelming that many might find themselves not even bothering with half of it. The game gives special rewards just for not playing it.

    Lineage 2: Revolution checks all the standard boxes in the MMORPG canon. It's nothing new or particularly inspired and it struggles a little with its PC heritage in terms of interface and controls, but if you're looking for a (really) standard MMORPG on mobile platform this is one of the best choices around.
