    Despite being free to download and play, Requiem is fully featured, and arguably better than many subscription-based MMOs out there. [Oct 2008, p.60]

    Unless the DNA coding and beast ability is something that really excites you, you could take it or leave it.

The overall driving force behind the game is kill things to get better at killing things - it's about as deep and meaningful as a 'massage' from a Thai 'escort' in a seedy hotel in Bangkok. I've bashed away at this game for over 6 hours tonight, trying to find something to redeem it - Oh yeah, it's got lots of blood (so, it'll be a big hit with all you vampires out there). The Havok engine is woefully badly used and the whole game feels tired, stale and familiar. There are some fairly intriguing ideas (warping into a raging beast for better killing power at higher levels and after completing some hideously complicated quest) but that's probably not going to be enough to get me to play it for that long. Overall it's just another game where your 'character' (and I use the term loosely as most of the in-game avatars have no character at all and are more similar to production-line mannequins for all their lack of individualism and idiosyncratic features) is nothing more than a status symbol - this game is definitely one for stat-whores, rank-queens and online boy-racers looking to soup up their weapons and armour to the nth degree so they can grab a screenie of that 'killer hit'' when they get a maximum critical hit so they can post it on the forums and then furiously masturbate over their own inflated sense of importance in the grand scheme of things. I'll rate this game 2/10 for the graphics - it gets nothing for anything else.… Full Review »

    Beta is very smooth and polished; typical Korean-style MMO with a few interesting twists. Nicely gory and good use of Havoc physics in Beta is very smooth and polished; typical Korean-style MMO with a few interesting twists. Nicely gory and good use of Havoc physics in combat. Interesting though incomprehensible backstory. Limited character customization and skill trees. A far more polished product in beta than Age of Conan is at release.… Full Review »
