    Ever since they relaunched this game after it shut down, they had polished the game and made it much easier to play and there is a ton more stuff to do.. The graphics are fine and I love all the skills, all classes are great and are balanced perfectly.. and gear grinding isn't too bad and if it does get repetitive just take a break and a few hours later it's fun all over again.

    Very nice game with good graphics and a good storyline. If you hate leveling with non-stop quests like World of Warcraft this is an excellent game. It is also based on killing mobs like an MMORPG should be. Very good combat and gameplay, but not very original, which is why it's not a 10. Still, if you're into good graphics and fast-paced gameplay, I recommend this. Also, manyVery nice game with good graphics and a good storyline.

The concept of paying money for a 'premium' status which unlocks a few extras is a nice concept in my eyes. The battleing is a fast pace thing which focuses on the action part of the fighting using combo systems and nice skills. Continous quests awaits the player even if most of them iclude slying some kind of mosters. The keyboard and mouse input is a little choppy which is a little annoying but it leaves a nice MMO with various equipment, some cloned ideas and new ones too. My advice is to download the client and have a look - its free.… Expand

    Everything that I've seen is less than original, they're taking many things and compiling it into one. Taking the combo system from FF8, spells and stuff aren't original. The graphics are fine, but thats all I can say. There also are issues with how the mobs work, so many people can get screwed over by it.

    A decent offering for the free to play crowd with some interesting combat mechanics to boot.

    This game is sweet. Nicely done varied animations for fighting provide a nice twist to a somewhat generic grind fest. Its a good solid MMO which is fun to play even with the amount of grinding you have to do.

    I was recommended this game by a friend. It looked cool at first, but the graphics weren't very good. It was unclear and dull. Look at FiestaOnline: it has very nice, vibrant maps and colorful characters.

    The skills looked ok, but bland, because they were like a spinoff of Fiesta. The interface was hard to figure out, and the fact that you could take off your clothes was obscene.

It's not bad by any means, it just doesn't break any new grounds or try to distinguish itself as unique. It's a fast pace action MMORPG. At its lowest point its a mindless grind fest.

    If the European players were not so rude by stealing your kills and drops and spam duel you without even asking you, i would give a lot more. The graphics are not too shabby, the storyline is nice and the gameplay is my favourite part of this mmorpg. I have played Cabal for a couple of years roughly and since it has been free to play the community on there has gotten poor.

    Grinding is not a problem, there lots of quest mostly kill quest to lessen the grind. Gameplay is nice though flashy moves and such, and GMs sometimes spams messages at players to warn not to use bot programs, but meh gameguard is weak to detect bots. The game will soon be plagued by bots. If you're using a bot that means the game is boring you now.

    Unlike World of Warcraft, the majority of a characters statistics are determined by his or her level, rather than equipment, which should be attractive to casual gamers.
