    Things have been so broken for the last 2 years, I had to call it quits. PVP has been broken for 2 years except for a very small area of the game. Arena has ben dead forever. There are constant exploits in the game (dumb ass devs to blame), that forces them to do a complete rollback, which punishes everyone (including the new guys that are trying to level). So, 4 days of work down the drain. If u busted your ass to get from level 80 to 85, guess what? Do it all again. They took that hard work away from you. On the rollback note, they have a cash shop in this game. If you bought leaves (their form of currency) before the rollback, it's up to YOU to get in touch with them to get YOUR money back! lol Blows my mind.

    Bottom line is, I touched on only a few of the problems with the game. Again, it had it's time, and I miss the old FW. Unless they get their **** together, guys, I wouldn't spend time building my character or spending money. It can't fall much further down before it collapses.    … Expand

    CONS:
    -very p2w. all the cool stuff is behind a paywall, and at high levels you pretty much have to spend money in the cash shop on gear to even be able to dish out the dps you need.
    -auction house runs on different currency then you get from quests/mobs (still dunno where to get the ah currency from ) which makes the currency you get from questing feel much less useful. There is gear that you can buy with it early on but you end up leveling past that gear very fast at the beginning anyways.
    -fast leveling is a curse not a blessing: you level extremely fast in this game because the devs want you to become "invested" into your character enough that when they hit ya with the pay wall at end game for gear , you're more likely to pay . I found this to feel very much like a bait and switch scam.    … Expand

    One hell of an MMO, despite the horrible cash shop based pay to win style. You find your way around that and the no so horrible looking graphics, then you have yourself really well balanced MMO with a unique PvP system, no stupid factions, makes open world PvP fun.

    A dying playerbase, a horrible content upgrade (Only cash shop now.) and disgusting graphics that run on an ancient piece of crap this game deserves no points.

Another major issue I have is with the respawn rate. Now I already have issues with MMOs making me feel like my impact on the game world is non-existent, but this is really driven home the enemies literally respawn seconds after I've killed them. At least in WoW it takes a good 5-10 minutes before they'll respawn.

    -Cash Shop is severely unbalanced and there are no restrictions in attempt to balance it

    In the end its a typical game from PWE, where they use it as a Cash Cow before they move onto their next venture.

    Free 2 Play yes. Free 2 enjoy not at all.

    With the recently screw ups it seems on every weekend, mostly due to the lack of staff and their actual ability to run a game without, the playerbase is now also dead. So it leaves nothing for new players looking to join and play this game.

So, that money now belongs to PWE, and you got stuck with Zen a lot were hesitant or weren't even going to buy. Let's make it more clearly:
    29th of March to the 1st of April:
    1) 10's of thousands of dollars profit, if not hundreds of thousands
    2) Player base excited
    3) Biggest server population in over a year
    4) Players exploring aspects of the game that were otherwise out of their progression level

    1st April:
    1) Huge amount of downtime
    2) Huge criticism via forums
    3) 90% of player base requesting game stay as it is without rollback
    4) Rollback announced
    5) Compensation (or as some call it a "bribe") in way of bound items that have no use to many
    6) Quitting posts popping up left right and center and or people vowing to never spend a cent on PWE games again
    7) Extremely Unhappy Player base
    8) Important feedback being ignored and irrelevant questions being answered vaguely
    9) Extremely Angry Player base.

Why worry about botting? When it’s built into the game. No really, you can bot in this game, and its perfectly ok to run multiple clients and do so. Horrible idea. Cash shoppers are much more powerful. You can “farm” gems and gold to upgrade for years.. or just spend $1000-$5000 and destroy everyone. No level limit on armor quality, fortify level, or gem strength makes lower level pvp a cash shopper only arena. Rift is the same allowing only major cash shopped guilds to bid. Very poor balance. 12v12 is the only random team pvp, but the rewards take months if not a year for War God set. Most of the time its filled with cash shoppers that make it very unfair and annoying. Wrath is annoying during pvp and forces you to collect yellow balls like you’re playing Pacman mid duels and fights. PvE is repetitive and very boring. Same quest every day. Very slow, boring and I found myself falling asleep and botting everything. Game has less and less players The skills are allll the same on every type of talent tree. Example, Ice Mage, Fire Mage, Wind Mage all use the same basic skills. Graphics are decent, but the game is CPU heavy (core i7@3.7ghz) and doesnt even warm my gtx 560ti. If you max graphics you crash everyone other screen. If you lower them, you crash less often, but still experience frame skip and need to reload client to refresh corrupted data. Tech support is the worst ever. The community is foul, unpleasant and childish. I have played Ferentus, Dialbo series, Guild Wars, and many MMO’s. This is by far the most cash hungry company that I have ever seen and suggest to check the BBB rating of F before ever spending a dime of giving them any of your time.… Expand

    Perfect World Entertainment is just licensing the use of the game, translated from Chinese by people that don't speak English. Tons of errors and language that wasn't proof read. Their servers get 90% of the updates that China does, 3-6 months later.

    The client for the game itself, is horridly unstable. Some people on slower systems can play forever without crashing, but they take so long to load into areas/dungeons, the encounters start before they are even there. Other people on new systems crash more and more each content update, because there is ZERO 64 bit support or compatibility. What is PWE doing about it? Nothing. Their staff works 9-5, Monday through Friday. There is no programming team at all addressing the instability issues.

    You can still find beta game play and interview videos with the development staff, and compare it with the game today... the grand plans were lost. Along the way, they abandoned any sense of balancing. They abandoned their edict of no grinding, and instituted a botting system so you can (have to) leave your game on 24/7 to grind points to build your char. Instead of breaking the mold, Forsaken World settled into the fold.

    The game content itself has no flow. When you read a review complaining about the speed of leveling being too quick, it's because that person just sampled the game over a lunch break, MMOHut style. Yes, you can fly through 3/4 of the levels, which is almost a must because as a new, low level player, there is nobody who's going to play with you. People are online 24/7 (see the botting comment above), but they usually aren't "there". Going from 79-80 (the level cap) is probably going to take you 2 months, if you're still playing.

    If you are a knowledgeable player, you probably have multiple accounts, and spend hours a day repeating the same solo/auto-path content, every day, only interacting with other people if you want to, certainly not because you need to.

    The in-game economy itself is rigged by people with many accounts, hording wealth, and controlling markets. Apparently fully supported by PWE, these accounts are not required to hide their activities.

    Final note: This is FAR from a free game. Months ago, PWE unveiled the purchaser reward system. A rank of titles that come with perks, the ranks being entirely based on how much money you've put into the game. Many of the "gifts" associated with these ranks cost money, and system itself provided far too much transparency to who they consider a valued customer. To acquire the full gambit of what read like baseline paying customer benefits (max bag and storage space, more than 1 character build template) you must spend 3 thousand dollars. To achieve the top rank of the purchaser rewards, you're forking out 15 grand. This level of greed is ridiculous, and you can imagine how vast the power difference this creates is, if you are actually playing for free.

    I have been, and am still playing this game... when it loads, anyway. I've put a little money into the game, none since the purchaser rewards came out. When I finally convince my community of friends to play guild wars 2, this game will just be a bump in the road of entertainment history.    … Expand

    The game is very addictive, but doesn't really give a lot of help. In addition, while there is quite a bit that can be done for free, you really need to spend money to get the good stuff. Not many opportunities to earn rare things. Still, it is a lot of fun, if you pick the right character class.

Got to LVL 35 with no problems. Graphics are amazing! Game-play not so bad! First character was a priest and felt like I did when I played WoW or EQ2 way back when!

Yes with all "Free to Play" games it has a shop where you can spend real money, but it doesn't hassle you to...that is your call. I don't spend real money and I get by just fine! xD I would recommend this to everybody especially my friends and family!… Expand

    I once tried 2 years ago, then quitted it soon after due to the extreme slow pacing that this game "had". I tried later with more patience, and I notice few good chance, but still quitted after sometime to the issues with money and still its extreme slow pace.

I tried later with more patience, and I notice few good chance, but still quitted after sometime to the issues with money and still its extreme slow pace. Now, i've been playing this game for a longer than than usual, and even though it's still extremely slow I really did like its change. First of all, I liked the fact that at each level the game gives you some tickets in order to get some free stuff from a different shop, which sells small helpfull items and, hard to believe, money too, making the issues of training and the mount, for instance, extremely easy to pass. Also, first time i tried this game, the leveling was EXTREMELY slow (as any f2p, anyway), but now the game gives you more exp (I think triple more exp than before, but I might be wrong sometimes), and in other words it's much easier to level up now...at some points (it still takes a lot of time, just not like before, I guess). Basically, this game became a lot more accesible than before, at least by me, and as an old WoW player I must say I'm enjoying this game more than long ago, even though it's slow paced, flawed on the technical side, many bug issues (especially since Nightfall patch), and still lots of paid content to get. I suggest to try it if you're bored of others MMORPGs, or else you won't get much from it.… Expand

    If you are looking for a free MMORPG to play casually, this game might suit you. The lore and story are put together capably enough to engage most, and the graphics are pretty good.

However, the game does begin to get old after a while, and as you reach the higher levels, you will find yourself competing with either people who play this game 24/7, or people who pay money to get better equipment, contribute to their guild, etc. Additionally, while the community is somewhat helpful for new people, most higher level groupings and guilds will require you to sacrifice hours every week doing repetitive quests.… Expand

    Wonderful game has a good pet system which all games need. It is like a free way to play WoW. This is a exxelent mmorpg. I play this daily now it is so fun. Though the bound and real gold kinda is annoying

    Even with the generous free-to-play model factored in, it's hard imagine why anyone would want to deal with the basic combat and utterly forgettable lore of this world. [Aug 2011, p.63]

    It's free, it's pretty, and it's got hot, busty vampire chicks. If any of those things interest you, Forsaken World is worth checking out.

    This is an AAA title, a big gun; it goes up against recent hits like Rift and holds its own.
