Some of you might know of its existence, but here's the link for the ones who don't:

It's free and it should be fun if you're into MMORPGs like WoW.

Has anyone tried and enjoyed this? It seems very much rooted in the asian market, and I can't think of a surer way to kill the social aspects I enjoy than with a daunting language barrier.

Also, I can't seem to find anything to indicate what the actual gameplay is like. The quick guide basically just says "click to move, click to attack", while the screenshots ("Let's Feel Feeling of movement with Screen Shot!") and movies seem more geared to showing off the visuals than any actual gameplay.

I played it for a few hours. You go around and kill stuff and sometimes you'll be offered a quest in which you can kill stuff AND get a bonus reward for it (my first quest was to kill 40 of one type of adversary). The PvP aspect seems interesting in that as soon as I walked out of the front gate of the starting area there were high-level people bashing away at each other.

Yes. I brought this up in a thread awhile back. People complained about it being full, but they've opened several servers since then.

PvP is decent and worth a try.
