Perfect World (International) Closed Beta Open

Published by yokoshima at 3:39 am under Industry News Edit This

In other parts of the world, the word going around is that Perfect World is a great game. Perfect World is (yet another) free to play MMORPG that can be downloaded and played with thousands of people. About a year ago it was big in Asia and months ago I heard of Europeans playing and now I suppose it’s our turn in the U.S.

There’s no hokey long url to visit for more information. It’s simply http://www.perfectworld.com. I wonder how much that web domain cost… Go check it out!

It appears to be a lot like any other MMO except I’ve heard far less complaints, it seems to have reasonable depth, and the graphics look great. I assume it’s also challenging but not impossibly hard. Some games just become too difficult to grind and progress in. I look forward to trying this one out. Another noteworthy thing is that the characters appear to have a wide range of customization. I’ve seen some pictures of animal like people and women with breasts larger than their torso. I can’t imagine what I will see running around town… x_x

I’m also interested to see what items will be available to wear and for purchase. There are lots of different classes, but I’m at a loss as to which to pick. Since my MMO existence is based mainly upon appearence, I will have to look at screenshots of each class to determine what I will ultimately look like. The official forums lack screenshots in the screenshot section. I mostly found links that link to other posts. I felt like a rabbit going deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole, eating up more of my limited resources and ram along the way. Eventually I found the picture of the horrendously large breasted character and that was enough for me. I suppose I should look elsewhere for more pictures of the foreign Perfect World and make a decision. I’d also like to check out Perfect World videos on Youtube.

Just by pure guess I’m leaning toward Cleric or Magician. I love to spam magic. A melee class is more practical but magic people are usually prettier. *^^*

To play, just go to the website to download the client. Then you register with the site and they will select people for the Closed Beta. If you cannot get a Beta key and want to play Perfect World with me, just let me know and I’ll get one for you. I’m in no way affiliated with Perfect World, but I do make friends everywhere I go and then sometimes those friends go places. <3

The last game I played before this was Fiesta Online. Fiesta was fun too but I felt it lacked depth and there were a few annoying things with the user interface. I also wasn’t able to get anything cool to wear unless I paid real money. I don’t mind some pay items in online games, but Fiesta sold items that had a timed expiration. I’m sorry but I can’t play enough/reliably enough to be worth spending real money on something that literally does nothing and is nothing. If it lasts forever, well then, I may consider it. Albatross also had paid items that expire but they look cute *and* improve character ability/performance.

Perfect World Beta Download is at 98%. I will be playing starting tomorrow.

I feel bad I haven’t been able to blog every day. I’ve been suffering these horrible debilitating headaches off and on and it has to do with a neck injury from a car accident, so depending on how I sleep one night it can effect me for many days. :{ I will try harder to write an entry each day, but I take my time and do it right. So much to blog, so little time.
