A worthwhile buy.
Graphics: 10/10
- In my opinion the style and looks of the game are unmatched, even compared to the newer MMORPGs such as LOTRO
Sound: 9/10
- Excellent sound track, though I wish there was a stereo system within the game to allow me to choose which track I want to play
- Overall sounds are good but not awe inspiring
Gameplay: 8.5/10
- The main thing I have against Lineage 2 is that it is a grind fest. The fact that you lose a sizable amount of experience and at times even the gear you are using makes this game geared totally towards group based grinding and can quite frankly be a pain in the ass.
- On the other hand the PVP nature of this game is well developed and can be considered a high point for the game.
- The community is huge and well developed, allowing for excellent reasons to stay in the game
- Fun special events
Value: 10/10
- Definitely worthwhile if you are into PVP and into Guild Battles => castle sieges and various special events (*something that isn't present in a lot of MMORPGs). But the difficulty can be a turn off for some people.
