"Pathetic MMORPG with the most horrid cash shop system"

April 2, 2010  |   By N0cturne

Version: Lunia Chronicles 1.0

Pros

- I suppose some stages are fun the first time you try them as they don't involve repeated mouse clicks, and involve some kind of "hit-and-run" keyboard skills like Zelda games
- Some background music are nice

Cons

- Most horrid cash shop system ever
- Absolutely no customer service
- Seriously outdated graphics, no it's not an artistic style, it's plain laziness to update
- Completely dead community
- Absolutely no game events

Summary

Everything else about this game is horrid, listing in order of severity:
- The cash shop: if you've ever wanted to know what the most greedy cash shop system looked like, look no further. Not only are the items ridiculously expensive ($18.50 for a "costume" that is NOT EVEN PERMANENT), have HORRIBLE google-translator-type explanations, absolutely no customer service even for cash shop items, most items are RANDOM (yes you'll end up spending tons of money getting stuff that you already have because everything is RANDOM, there's no way to get a "complete set" of anything as there is backdoor code in this game that increases the chance of getting duplicate cash shop items so you'll spend money to buy even more - this is proven)
- Ridiculously empty community: want to play with other people? Yeah tough luck, I'd say this entire game has at most 300 players, and sometimes around 50 players in certain hours
- Completely outdated graphics: no it's not even cel-shading, it's just LOW QUALITY graphics. After years and years they never bothered improving it
- Completely absent of game events: the only events you'll ever find in this game are "woohoo new cash shop items!! Spend $500 in the current month and get a free cookie!" type events. Looking for guild wars? Server wars? PvP wars? Other fun stuff? ABSOLUTELY NONE
- Cash shop players have completely unfair advantage due to the ridiculous stats the items provide; these items are untradable in the game so you HAVE to buy them with $
- Horrible grinding, yes it'll take hours and hours of the same stages over and over again to gain a level at high levels, as the entire game is split into various "stages", and when panned out, has maybe 10 hours of gameplay content

Bottom line: do NOT waste your time on this piece of crap. Ridiculous cash shop system + no customer service + repetitive gameplay = Lunia
