  1. Given a year or so, Archlord might be a solid title. Right now though? It's not worth the money.
  2. Archlord is a case of seen it before, seen it better, and the stuff we haven’t seen is going to end up more frustrating and hassle than it is worth.
  3. The game has some rubberbanding (where you bounce back a dozen yards or so while running) but that does not occur all that often.

Duping, gltiching and scamming was the way to go in this Game. The community was terrible - always pretty salty and mean. The Game itself was a masterpiece in mw opinion, it was fun in pve & pvp but the transfer from codemasters to webzen broke it's neck. The Game got closed in 2014 since Webzen brought awful patches and lost players... Full Review »

Codemasters don't fix bugs, then Webzen take the game 2010 and destroy it more with the item-shop. It's sad, because ArchLord got a nice PvP system and a good graphic, but, you know, that's not all.

This game favors only the most dedicated player, but between the start to the ascension to the throne of the Archlord (which is unlikely for your Average Joe), you're going to be bleeding your eyes out grinding, grinding, grinding and doing some more grinding. This mediocre title clearly had a good reason to go Free. Full Review »
