    El mejor proyecto de MMO de la historia. Una pena que los desarrolladores piensen que somos esclavos.

    Ojalá cambien las cosas en un futuro cercano.

    Great combat sysytem, nice mmo mechanics. The only thing I dislike about the game is that progression is RNG based. Besides that, the game is very good.

    Demons are invading your world of Arkesia. Cities and settlements being destroyed and countless deaths. They are searching for hidden relics of the past called Arks. Arks are the only thing with the power to defeat the darkness and bring balance to Arkesia. Hired as a bodyguard for a group of treasure hunters, you stumble your way into fate’s hands.

They are searching for hidden relics of the past called Arks. Arks are the only thing with the power to defeat the darkness and bring balance to Arkesia. Hired as a bodyguard for a group of treasure hunters, you stumble your way into fate’s hands. Are you the hero who can find the lost arks?
    A free-to-play massively multiplayer online action role playing game (MMOARPG) that released in the east in 2019. Through a partnership with developers and Amazon, a western release was put into the works and came out last month with a huge success.
    To start because it will be brought up to anyone who talks about Lost Ark. If it's free-to-play, does that mean it's pay-to-win? In short, Yes. If you are the type of gamer who wants to just throw your credit card on a game to rush to the end content, you can do that. But that will not take away the enjoyment of a game for others who choose to play without dropping loads of cash.
    With the build up to the launch of Lost Ark, I ignored the hype because I didn’t think it would interest me. Knowing most free to play games offer a little enjoyment but quickly fall off for other games. The day of launch I watched a couple streamers play the game and after a couple hours of background watching I figured I would tip the toe into the water…not knowing I would be sucked in and loving every minute.
    I describe Lost Ark as a melting pot. It takes game themes from across the field and implements them in a great way all into one game. The story is good and captivating through Arkesia. Big cinematic events happening through the quest lines of different lands. The world is beautiful and a treat to explore by land or sea.
    In combat you will easily be swarmed by monsters and feel the legion breathing down your neck but your skill set of flashy (anime-esque/diablo) moves will make you feel like an unstoppable badass. Blood and gore splattering across the detailed environments while you collect your loot.
    You want Monster Hunter? They have Guardian Raids. Solo or a party of 4 can take on a variety of difficult guardians that limit normal functions in the game. Limited amount of revives/items while also adding in a time constraint to push your team. Too many mistakes with accidental deaths and it’s a failure.
    Do you want challenging content? Abyssal dungeons/raids that focus more on a boss's mechanics than standing around swinging a sword aimlessly. For example the second dungeon has a necromancer and if you fail to collect the correct orbs, he will revive and receive an increase to his abilities making the fighter harder and harder. Kill him all you want, but if you can't communicate or understand a fight, you won’t survive.
    You want to make multiple characters because of all the neat classes? Lost Ark is extremely alt friendly. Separate from character level there is an accumulated roster level for your account. Most rewards will be gained on one character but forever shared with your roster. It's even designed for alternate characters to do daily or basic activities to funnel materials to your main character for vertical progression of gear.
    You want to fight other players? It has PVP combat that is designed to equalize gear and abilities when you enter into the arena. To balance players on a similar battlefield giving anyone a fighting chance.
    On the other spectrum of horizontal content, there is an abundance. Varies collection systems with separate reward tracks to keep any completionist busy. A card system that captures the feeling of opening random packs in a real life trading card game. I get side tracked more with horizontal systems. I forget I need to improve my gear and advance through the story. It's rare for a game to nail that to such a degree.
    The game isn't perfect by any definition. It has small flaws depending on the type of gamer you see yourself as. If racing to the end game is your cup of tea it will be a long process because upgrading your gear is a grind. Coming into the game new with no understanding of the systems is overwhelming. These systems came out slowly in Korea over the games development and with the western release we received them all at once. A little bit of reading or youtube videos can help give you the fundamentals of how the systems work.
    For what the game has delivered, I am hooked. I'm close to reaching over 200 hours with the game only being out for a little over a month. I'm in for the long haul and excited to see more classes and cosmetics to be released into the game. I still have story quests to work through and the collections are keeping me itching to find the next hidden seed of Arkesia.

    * You need to grind. This is good, because players have something to do. Many kids these days don't understand that a grind at the end of an MMO is good. Otherwise the game just ends there and you silly people complain that there's nothing to do. You can only have one of these two and grinding is definitely better, especially when it's fun.

    The only thing I could complain about is there is no way to transfer between servers. They could make tranfers expensive, but it should be possible.
    And the PvP is really bad, because it relies too heavily on stun effects and there's no fluidity - exactly the opposite of PvE. One side is always on the ground taking damage and the first good stun often decides a fight, because it's not possible to get back up before they're dead.
    Which is actually an incredible waste, because the PvP modes in the game could be really fun.

    Opinions can differ, but if you give this game 0/10, you have no appreciation for what makes a good game and should go back to Candy Crush.    … Expand

    Giving this game less than a 5 is just ridiculous and shouldn't even be allowed. Even if you don't like it, objectively this is a solid game you can sink a lot of time in and enjoy the huge amount of content that is given players i.e. Chaos Dungeons, Raids, Hundres of Islands to explore, collectables, Waifus, Booba-Skins and more.

    I like the game. It's full of things to do and you never get bored. The endgame is literally when it all starts. Much content, cool classes, lot of gear enhancement tools, gems, dungeons, raids etc. The only thing I would have loved is an open-world instead of five maps per continent.

    I not gonna lie, since Black Desert and Blade and Soul I haven't found a really good MMO in a while. Lost Ark definitely has my interest. Gunner class is definitely the best looking and my favorite. wish there was more Character customization though. wanted my Character to look more devious but it didn't work out too well.

    this game is a work of art in the good sense of the phrase, it's obviously fun although its story seems a bit meh to me but what really matters is that you really like a game and it's also super addictive so much so that in 4 days I've already logged 20 hours. The game is very good, I recommend it and also the graphics are very good for the genre.

    Llevo casi 200 horas desde que salió el juego, este es un muy buen juego de MMO ARPG, si lo que buscas es una buena historia con un buen lore y una jugabilidad imparable con buenas animaciones de ataque este es tu juego. NO ES RECOMENDABLE SALTARTE TODA LA HISTORIA Y ESCENAS o simplemente te aburrirás ya que el punto del juego no es solamente hacer misiones o subir de nivel el personajeLlevo casi 200 horas desde que salió el juego, este es un muy buen juego de MMO ARPG, si lo que buscas es una buena historia con un buen lore y una jugabilidad imparable con buenas animaciones de ataque este es tu juego. NO ES RECOMENDABLE SALTARTE TODA LA HISTORIA Y ESCENAS o simplemente te aburrirás ya que el punto del juego no es solamente hacer misiones o subir de nivel el personaje solo porque si.

    El juego cuenta con diferentes características tanto multijugador como singleplayer además de tener arenas pvp totalmente balanceadas y una historia totalmente rica en lore por lo que puedes disfrutar toda la historia sin siquiera aburrirte y en caso de que llegues a hacerlo existen las historias secundarias y misiones para mejorar las relaciones con algún pnj/npc en donde incluso las escenas de historia existen hasta en secundarias que por lo general es algo que me encanto y es una total locura que los desarrolladores hayan puesto esto.

    Al terminar gran parte del modo historia hasta el nivel 50 se te desbloquea muchas areas del contenido EndGame que incluso vale la pena darle una gran oportunidad al juego y llegar a este nivel, además de eso existen las mazmorras abisales o mazmorras del abismo algo que seguro te encantara si te gustan las mazmorras con jefes difíciles con sus propias mecánicas de juego y maneras propias de derrotarlos en equipo. (Como dato pienso que lo mejor que tiene el juego son las mazmorras y la mayoría de sus escenarios, algunos me emocionaron muchísimo, otros me dieron muy igual y algunos estuvieron tristes)

    Un punto a observar es que si buscas animaciones super realistas, lamento decirte que esto no lo encontraras aquí pero eso solo sería como el 40% de las animaciones ya que la mayoría son muchísimo mejores.

    El soundtrack del juego va muy bien con el ambiente además de que no es para nada molesto a la hora de jugar o estar haciendo algo en especifico por lo que en las zonas de mapa será totalmente olvidable EXCEPTO en escenas donde el juego es totalmente importante como algunas escenas del modo historia y muchos otros valen la pena ser vistos.

    Todas las clases son muy frenéticas a su propio estilo incluyendo las de soporte que como opinión propia deberían haber más en las partys ya que tienen muy buenos buffos de equipo.

    Con respecto a las malas criticas de los servidores: Se me hace demasiado apresurado y absurdo para la gente que le pone una mala calificación los primeros días ya que es totalmente previsto que los servidores se petaran a esa magnitud LOS PRIMEROS DÍAS DE JUEGO, ¡hoy en día los servidores están perfectos!    … Expand

Per quanto poi all'inizio il gioco possa risultare noioso ad alcuni, dato che fino al livello 30 di content non c'è nulla ed è super lineare, basta stringere i denti per giusto una decina di ore forse e incominciamo a venir investiti di roba da fare (che comunque per fortuna ci viene data razionata e spesso con le dovute quest guida, in modo da imparare e abituarsi). Il gameplay è super divertente se piacciono i diablo-like, dove sostanzialmente bisogna macellare ondate di nemici ma sempre usando una minima strategia per evitare di venir travolti. Nel gioco è letteralmente impossibile annoiarsi, di content ce n'è anche troppo, tutto è curato davvero bene persino la miriade di tipologie di quest alternative alla principale che non vengono lasciate al caso o scritte da bambini di 10 anni. Il gioco lo straconsiglio, ma fate conto che è quel genere di opera che è davvero molto addictive: vi risucchia totalmente e avete sempre voglia di fare cose, perchè sprona a migliorare e a scoprire.

The story starts out like most high fantasy games, but quickly turns into One Piece the MMO.

And the best thing is, it's completely free to play! You do not have to spent a single coin of real money to enjoy the beautiful tons of content.

    - Dungeon and group play has fast queue times.

    - Easy to grind to level 50 to open up all the end game content.
    - Can easily play the game free to play as long you are not into a rush to get things.

    Cons:
    - Main quest story line can be a little strange at times.
    - Some quests feel like they were inserted as a filler, like having to move a box or deliver a letter to someone standing next to the quest giver.
    - Europe having server problems since launch, Amazon seems to under estimate how popular the game is.
    - As game is a port from Korea, it's art style may not be for everyone.
    - Upgrading late game gear relies on the RNG gods looking down on you in a good way.

    If Lost Ark is on your to try list and you are in Europe or South America where the most server problems are happening due to not enough servers for demand. I would wait a few weeks to a month for it to calm down.    … Expand

    Interesting character classes, enticing atmosphere, visual attractiveness, satisfying combat – Lost Ark hit the mark on everything one expects from a good action RPG. I could feel my character’s power from the very first step in this interesting, varied world, and saw potential for one of the best Diablo’s cousins in years. It’s a pity that the MMO aspects of Lost Ark forced some compromises and simply get in the way of enjoying the satisfying Diablo-esque side.

    Lost Ark is literally great enough to re-ignite my passion for MMORPGs after 15 years. That’s not a joke, and it’s not something that I’m just saying for the sake of this review. Because of that, I don’t know that I should be reviewing this game so much as I should be thanking it. I’m incredibly happy to have finally found an MMO that I can look forward to playing every day, and, if you’re willing to take my word at all, I think you’ll find that you’ll end up the same way once you sit down with this game for yourself.

    No classic, then, but Smilegate has delivered a big, silly, characterful romp that's best experienced with friends. [Issue#370, p.118]
