WelshT.Aug 3, 2007Lots of bashing of this game but if you want a free-to-play MMO then it's more than worth a look.

NateK.Aug 27, 2007My score would be a 2 if I had to pay a dime for this, but as far as free MMORPGs are concerned, ArchLord is about as good as it gets. Like Diablo-style bashing for increasingly more powerful loot and abilities? You'll be into this. Want something more substantial? Get ready to pay for it.

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.
-
Whether you'll ever get to see much of it is highly questionable, though, given that the time between starting and becoming completely despondent with ArchLord is likely to be minimal.

Regardless of it being very hard to picture how its tedious, clumsy mechanics could possibly evolve into something fluid and entertaining, any game that puts you through a good 15 or 20 hours of overwhelming despair to get to even a chance of something worthwhile - which the server-wide near-silence suggests actually isn't, and certainly won't be until if and when there are enough players to populate large-scale tussles - is a failure.
