Game-world:
The game-world in Perfect World International is a traditional Chinese themed world. This is apparent in not only the architecture of the buildings, but in the names and designs of most of the NPCs. The game world is subdivided into various cities and areas that you can explore to do quests and kill monsters. There are 5 starter cities, a main central hub city, and finally a city where there are only high-level players. This distinction of characters makes the game easier to manage and start your questing, especially at the early levels.
Features:
Perfect World has a lot of unique features that makes it stand apart from a lot of other MMORPGs, that I have played at least. The first one that you notice is the class and race system. Classes and races are both dependent on each other, as an example, you have to be a human if you want to be a blademaster or a wizard. Also there are 5 various races and 10 various classes. The classes are the Blademaster and Wizard (both human classes), Barbarian and Venomancer (Untamed), Cleric and Archer (Winged Elf), Assassin and Psychic (Tideborn), and finally the just released Seeker and Mystic classes (Earthguard). There are also professions that any character can do, and they are blacksmith, tailor, craftsman, apothecary, and runecrafting. There are 2 different kinds of servers to play the game on which are PvE(player vs Environment) and PvP (Player vs Player). The main thing though that from my perspective that sets this game apart is the fact that it has a mode called Territory Wars. This is when two powerful faction/guilds compete against one another to determine who will gain control of the various cities and areas. This can be done once a week and it helps to set the best guilds apart. Finally, in the most recent expansion they have created Guild Halls, which is a place where you can build reputation for your faction and buy special items.
Graphics and Sound:
This game is a 3D game and for a Free to play especially it is amazing the quality of graphics that all of the animations and the game world itself have to offer. This is everything from the look of the monsters and buildings to the way the ability animations present themselves. It is truly an amazing game to behold.
The game sticking with its Chinese them has some very tradition Chinese music that changes to vary with location.
First session:
During the first game-play session, I started the game from the beginning by creating a character, I decided to go with the Mystic class, which is a summoner mage class. As I started my class you are given a brief back history of your race and how it is up to you to carry on its traditions. So when I first start playing the game I start doing all of the basic quests to start leveling up. I get to about level 5 and it lets me go into my race’s city. Here I meet the elder and get the various quests from him this includes the ones for my profession I chose to be a craftsman and apothecary. I go and do these quests gathering the various materials that I need, which is quite difficult because I am have to look around the world to find where the materials I need appear. After I complete that I go back and get my profession from the various NPCs and continue on my way of questing doing all the quests that are in my main city and end this session when I am about level 13.
Second session:
The second game-play session was primarily spend progressing my character even further than the first session. This time I try to start gathering materials so that I can upgrade my crafting skill. I have also gotten my genie, which is a little sprite that can learn various abilities to help you in your adventure. While playing around killing various monsters for a quest, I start to help a friend that I know in real-life and I am invited to join his faction. This is great because now I have a couple of high-level characters to help me when I get to the upper-level quests. I continue to get my crafting skill up and I get up to level 3 crafting skill, which is as high as my crafting skill will go until I get to level 40 and get an event quest to get it increased. I play this time until I get my level 19 cultivation quest, which is a special quest that when completed will allow me access to new quest and more powerful ranks of abilities.
Overall:
Overall, Perfect World is a great game which allows for a bunch of independent decisions. It is a very sandbox game and the only thing that really limits where you can go are the high level monsters that can get in your way. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a new MMORPG to play because they care greatly for their community and it is a free to play MMO
