Before you play

Things to consider

Population has declined significantly from its mid-2000s peak, affecting group content and server activity.
The cash shop and item-enhancement mechanics have drawn criticism typical of long-running free-to-play Korean-style MMORPGs.
Visuals and core systems reflect the game's 2005 origins, even after updates over the years.
Content update frequency is much slower than during the game's early years of active development.
Gear enhancement uses RNG-based upgrading with real risk of failure at higher levels.
