Magic World Online
Game Description and Comments
Magic World Online is a free MMORPG that bills itself as a "New Concept MMORPG". The reason for this proclamation is that MWO offers quite a few features that are not in other MMOs like an in-game bot system, video chat, weapons that grow with players, and the ability to raise mounts. Although video chat and the other features are nice, the really innovative feature here is the in-game bot system. Quite possibly the biggest complaint with MMOs is that these type of games always have too much grinding. Bots take care of this problem by grinding for you when you are away from your PC or just away from the game. This is innovative because other games may have bots, but they are considering cheating and against the terms of service of the games. Having an official bot system frees players from grinding and allows them to focus on the more interesting aspects of the game. Magic World Online is definitely a game that should be tried by anybody looking for a fun MMO that lacks grinding.

Comment: It's been a while since I've played a game that doesn't
bore me after two weeks of point and click. I know there are many
gamers who feel the same as I do. Magic World Online has been able
to keep my attention since the start of closed beta II. The main
reason for this is the legal bot system that allows players to leave
the grinding to the game.
To keep my review fair, I'm going to address some concerns I have
encountered during my time playing. First off, though there are
pop-up help windows every few levels, the game is not very 'newbie
friendly'. Many players ask questions in Country chat that should
have or have been answered via the pop-ups or other quests. The game
would really benefit if it advertised its many features to new
players, such as the auction house, guild wars, state wars, video
chat, etc..
Some people might also be turned off by the botting system, seeing
it as unfair. The botting system turns what could be a grindfest
into casual, hands-free gaming. I leveled up to 25 manually,
thinking I didn't have to use the bot, but after that the leveling
curve got steeper. I left my bot on overnight and finally understood
the value of it. The botting system is not perfect and is not
intended to be. As I get into the higher levels, I find myself in
need of party members, therefore I must communicate with other
players.
Another plus for this game is the community. While there are a few
bad apples in the bunch, most players are very willing to help new
players out.

Comment: Let me start off by saying this game is great! The main
attraction going for this game would have to be the in-game bot
system. As long as you have the game opened and the bot properly set
up, you can be sure that your character is gaining experience while
you are keeping yourself occupied with other things. You can even
leave the game on while sleeping and still level. However, the
botting system by itself is not what make this a fun and addictive
game. For me, its also about loot collection and in terms of loot
this game more than delivers.
Mobs can drop completely random stat-enhanced weapons and armor
which are color coded into blue (uncommon), gold (rare), dark-gold
(very rare) and green (legend). You can also find special stones
that you can insert into weapons and armor with a socket in it (yes,
mobs can drop armor/weapons with a socket too!). The higher level
the stone the better the stat of the stone is.
As well as that, the mobs drop different treasure maps relative to
your level and if u collect 3, u will be given coordinates which you
can follow to locate the treasure and find stat enhanced weapons or
armor. There are also different levels of pandora boxes that can be
found and when opened with a key (purchased from grocery merchant).
Besides the chance of getting a stat enhanced weapon or armor, you
also have a chance of getting a set of magic stones (the higher
level the pandora box is, the more magic stones you might get from
it). If you collect 50 of these, you can trade these off for a
legendary ring with HUGE stat boosts that really help with training.
With such a great looting system, there is always that tendency to
check up on your bot just to see what it picked up while you were
away.
Personally, the botting system and the loot system are enough to
keep me interested in the game, but the game offers some of the
other more noteworthy features such as growing weapon which you can
get from a level 20 quest and which can be really customized as you
level it up and upgrade it; video chatting; auction house; MANY
quests and random guild quests which when accomplished, does not
only give you guild resources to donate and to improve your guild
but will also improve one of your base stats permanently; class
transfer that allows you to get better skills when you reach certain
level i.e at level 15, 30, 50, 65 giving u incentive to continue
playing this game; and the navigation system which allows you to
navigate around the world simply by clicking on the expanded map
making it easier to move from point A to point B or finding your way
to an NPC.
That's of course not to say that this game doesn't have its
downsides. For one, there is almost no ambient sounds such as wind
howling, birds chirping and other such sounds that could add to the
atmosphere as well as having only one looping music which quickly
gets repetitive.
Since you can advertise your items in chat, the auction mall feels
pointless. It is much quicker to literally show your item thru chat
by holding shift and right clicking on an item and pressing enter
than to set up an item in auction mall.
The graphics, even though 2D, are simply great! Very sharp and VERY
detailed. Some of the best 2D graphics I have ever seen in any 2D
MMO. Unfortunately, the downside to the great graphics is that the
animation of you and the mobs moving and battle animations are
rather choppy. While that put me off when i first started, I found
the game all too absorbing soon after and it became easy to oversee
the choppy character/mob animations until I simply didn't care.
This is the first free MMO game I have seen in which the GM is
actually active and friendly! He either trains, or sits on his pet
in the town and helps to answer any questions that people may have.
Another thing is that the GM can actually ban people from the game
for poor behavior (one person got banned for swearing in country
chat excessively). This definitely helps with the already great
community in the game.
I have tried quiet a number of MMO games before this one including
Last Chaos, Tales of Pirates, Dream of Mirror and Perfect World but
all those f2p games were either too heavy on grinding, had a lack of
quests, had boring mob drops, and the usual scammer bot problems and
players illegally botting. Hopefully it's easy to see how MWO solves
all those problems as well as adding some features never before seen
in other free mmo games out there. Having said all this, I find it
easy to see myself playing this game for a long time to come.
