The one redeeming feature here is the Guardian system. Essentially, this allows new players to become an apprentice to an older player who will help them through the first stages of the game. To do this, the player must navigate to the Guardian Window and choose one from a list of Guardians. This isn't a never-ending relationship though, and it only lasts until Level This can open doors to a lot of aspects of the game, such as guilds and better player parties.
Newer games don't need this kind of feature, as they introduce players to the game more slowly through a well-structured tutorial. The crafting system in Last Chaos is robust.
Mining, herbalism, and absorption are the three choices and each craft has three unique resources that can be harvested. Players first acquire the special tools required for each craft and then go to specific harvest areas where they can get the base resources desired for their crafting. These resources must then be processed by their respective skills; Stone Processing, Energy Processing, and Herb Processing.
Once this processing is complete, then things move to the crafting stage. Weaponsmith, Armorsmith, and Alchemy are the three crafting skills here and each has four tiers with each tier having three levels. So, suffice to say, players will take a while before they master everything. In addition to this, players can also choose to have a pet. At the time of this review, there are only two pets: Horse and Dragon. As players progress through the game, one of the two will be dropped randomly as inert objects, which then have to be activated to be used.
That being said, after Level 31, pets can be trained as mounts, which is always nice. Upon reaching Level 31, players can choose one of two specializations, or jobs, for their class by speaking with their class master NPC. The exception is Nightshadow, which seems to be left out in the rain for now, as they don't have a second advancement.
The graphics have issues, the gameplay is slow, and pretty much everything is a hassle to do. Last Chaos is not a game that makes you want to play it and, like most MMOs that are free-to-play, a lot of the game is created so that players have to dish out money to enjoy the game. This creates an overall uninspiring experience which is compounded by the game's age. On the positive side, having been around for over nine years, Last Chaos has survived the test of time.
The game maintains a core hardcore audience and has been around so long that it's enjoyed many content updates.
It's hard to recommend Last Chaos to new players, but those who have played it in the past may want to check it out again for nostalgic purposes. System Requirements. Last Chaos was released in , so almost any PC should be able to run the game fairly well. Additional Info. The Thai version is published by game. Despite its original Korean release back in , the game still brings in healthy revenues.
The game used to be available in North America and Europe through Aeria Games, but when Aeria's license expired, Gamigo picked up the service. They are higher level players that help new players through the beginning stages of the game. New players can open a menu and choose from a list of potential Guardians.
Their guardian will be with them until they reach level 30, however you can of course play with your guardian after you reach this point. I think this is a unique learning system, and it provides opportunities to build friendships and encourages player interaction.
Luckily, as mentioned, the Guardian system only lasts until level This is because at level 31 you are able to choose your advanced class. Each base class has two specializations to choose from that alter their progression in a variety of different ways.
While this is in no way new its always been one of my favorite aspects of MMOs that have the feature. It gives the player an added layer of personalization and adds incentive to replay content with a different specialization.
After choosing a specialization it will be time to grind to cap. Which is currently set at a whopping As much depth as Last Chaos has within its standard gameplay, crafting is on another level. It operates on a tiered system. Starting with the gathering phase.
This is split into three skillsets, mining, herbalism, and absorption. These are used to gather raw materials. After this the actual crafting stage ensues. Which are Weaponsmithing, Armorsmithing, and Alchemy. I actually had a ton of fun crafting, it surprised me that it was one of my favorite aspects of the game. Progressing through the different tiers and mastering each craft was satisfying in a way that few other aspects of the game are. Last Chaos is an old game.
Plain and simple. There are aspects that are fun. Because of its age however, Last Chaos has a myriad of issues. The UI is a mess, and learning to play the game can be as challenging as actually playing the game. As unfortunate as those aspects are, Last Chaos still offers a uniquely hardcore experience.
The game will speak to players who may feel babied by modern MMO offerings. I think the fact that the game has survived for so long and retained a small but loyal audience attests to this. I like this game, I want to Register and play now. More Articles. More Videos.
