Shaiya
Game Description and Comments
Shaiya is a free 3D fantasy MMORPG from the same company as Last Chaos and Twelve Sky. This game was originally made in Korea. Shaiya joins the free MMO genre as one of the best looking games thus far. In fact, this free MMO will remind gamers of the pay-to-play MMO known as Lineage 2 because of its graphics and focus on PvP. PvP centers around two factions: the Alliance of Light and the Union of Fury. Humans and Elves make up the Alliance of Light while Deatheaters and the Vail make up the Union of Fury. Choosing a race in Shaiya is very important because it affects what faction you are on and which classes you can choose. For example, the only way to play a rogue-type class is to choose either an Elf Ranger or a Vail Assassin. Choosing a race and class is just the start of the choices you will need to make since Shaiya has several ways to participate in PvP and four different modes of difficulty. These modes range from Easy mode for helping newbies get started all the way to Ultimate mode. Ultimate mode is especially interesting since it can actually end your character's life once and for all. Overall, Shaiya should be tried by any MMOer who likes eye candy and plenty of PvP in a free MMORPG.
