Recommended online game or continue my previous game

Hi, recently I been thinking of playing a new game and the previous game that I enjoyed was "Silkroad Online" but the bad thing is that its very difficult to get into the game but its very fun. Anyways I would like to know if there is any games similar to "Silkroad Online" fighting, pvp, scenery and graphics game play, thanks.

[quote=WorkOfArt]Gotta say, silkroad online has one of the better graphics and scenery for [b]today's available[/b] MMORPGs.

Scenery-wise, Mabinogi would be absolutely marvelous. It's graphics in terms of character creation and appearance, however, are highly lacking.

There are several games coming out soon that have even better scenery and even better graphics. They are, however, not out yet.
One is TERA-Online. It makes Vindictus's graphics look like child's play. The gameplay is very similar to Silkroad online. It is expected to come out early next year, so you're looking at a good 2 to 3 month wait.

However, the main attraction here is Blade and Soul, a game not even released for South Korea yet and not expected to release for South Korea until late 2011. I know you won't wait that long without playing an MMO, but I have to say that the graphics and scenery in B&S make tera-online's everything look bad. The gameplay is highly hands on (demo in korea). It's similar to Vindictus, but there's a lot more actions and skills to use.

All in all, here's what I've found about 3D realistic MMORPGs:
Once you see an MMO with better graphics, you want to play it. That's why I stuck with mabinogi for a long time; the scenery graphics are one of the best in any MMORPG right now. However, once new games come out, you just want to play those instead. Think about it for a second. There are SO many 3D MMORPGs that involve you using the 1234567890 keys and the F1~12 keys for skills. You target an enemy, use the skill, charge or instant use, cooldown. So many fall under this category. So in the end, the only things that matter are the community, graphics, and idea. Community probably comes first, and graphics coming shortly thereafter, with the idea right behind graphics.

My point? Unless you go play the best possible MMORPG in terms of graphics, community, and idea right now, you'll be bored eventually, or you'd be swayed by the stunning graphics of a new MMO, such as Continent of the Ninth or TERA-Online or Blade and Soul.

My suggestion is to play an MMORPG that does not involve such graphics. This is why many people stick with maplestory: It's unique in terms of graphics. Not many side-scrolling 2D games, and graphics won't really matter at all here. However, we all know you won't play maplestory, since you probably already quit anyways.

My final suggestion? A 3D side scroller. Dragon Saga works.

If you really want to go ahead and get some 3D realistic action, AIKA online is a good choice for you. The graphics are far better than Silkroad, and the scenery is just as good. Unfortunately, TERA-Online and Blade & Soul and Continent of the Ninth are all far better. But, AIKA's one of the best F2P MMORPGs we have at the moment.

As for P2P, FFXIV is good, but you might not like it due to the slowish gameplay. It doesn't suit everyone's taste, yet it makes others go nuts for it.[/quote]
