Mabinogi

Mabinogi, a fantasy MMORPG teeming with exciting opportunity and adventure! Mabinogi, the brand new fantasy simulation by Nexon, the company that brought us the most popular online game in the world, Maple Story. Yes, there are many MMORPG's out there, so you must be wondering, what makes Mabinogi so special? Well, here are a few things:

The Combat system

Mabinogi's 2.0 battle system is truly amazing. Mabinogi battles run on a RTS (real time strategy) battle system. You are able to decide between combination attacks, defensive skills, and special attacks. The entire system relies on the player to read the opponent's attacks. Exactly like the website says, "Easy to use, difficult to master!" Never before has this been done.

The Skill System

The skill system in Mabinogi encourages players to try new things, for the only way to acquire new skills is by trying to use them. For example, the only way to acquire the play instrument skill is by actually equipping an instrument. This way, players will be encouraged to try new things. Also, the only way to increase your proficiency in a skill is by continuous use of a skill. This makes the game more realistic by making you practice to get better.

Part Time Jobs

Fighting is not the only way to level up in Mabinogi. You can help out the townsfolk by running errands. These errands can include anything from gathering minerals to deliveries. This part time job system gives people new reasons to play a mmo other than regular fighting.

Dungeon System

Mabinogi's limitless dungeon generates a new dungeon experience for you every time. This dungeon system makes sure that dungeons are always fun and never get boring. And Mabinogi's dungeon system has a private dungeon feature so you can complete dungeons with your friends with no outside interference.

Production System

Using the production system in Mabinogi, you can create your own unique items. This goes along with the part time job system for you may need production skills to finish some jobs. By using this production system, players can make their own super items which make the game more fun and a lot easier.

Composing Songs and Playing Instruments

Mabinogi encourages you to release your creative side using an innovative composition system. You can write your own scores and then play them on your instruments. You have to practice your skill with your instrument until you are able to play complicated pieces.

In the End

All in all, Mabinogi is innovative, fun and just a darn good game. Mabinogi gets an 8.9 out of 10 (89).
