The game is free to play, which is always a boon, but you can’t sprint until you reach level 15 for some reason. Grind an area, get the gear do the raid, rinse repeat. Now for me that isn’t a problem, as the endgame for most MMOs is where the most Skinner box-like gameplay resides. When I played it there was very little in the way of endgame content. That focus on story has come at a minor cost though. Each class has their own galaxy spanning plot that you can play along with your friends. If you loved the Knights of the Old Republic games for their narrative then this is the game for you. I have yet to play such a compelling story-line in an MMO. Where it really shines is its so called “Fourth Pillar”. Cool down timers and rock paper scissors. The game plays like most MMOs, you level your character, gain points to put into skills. #4 – Star Wars: The Old RepublicĮverything that I loved about the Knights of the Old Republic games blown up to epic proportions.

If you’re looking for a tight challenging PVP experience, with above average visuals, you can’t go wrong with Blade & Soul. But the game shines in PVP, and that combat system is a work of genius. The game is not without its faults, the PVE is borderline terrible and the crafting system is both boring and nearly useless. And honestly, NCSOFT has made an MMO that really captures all of that. I’m a big fan of fighting games, Street Fighter, KoF etc, I love the precision of a well executed combo, the speed chess nature of the back and forth and the meta games played with space and repetition. It has all the tropes you associate with MMOs, crafting, quests, guilds, but differs in its approach to combat.
