>Aika Online is more of what westerners would envision MMORPGs are. Developed by HanbitSoft, it takes place in a world that seems to be a mixture of fantasy and technology. In the game, there are the classes, the different countries, the quests and dungeons, and rare items to find. There’s PvP and leveling up. The game was designed so that newcomers to the online gaming world would be comfortable playing as well.


>However, what makes this game different is that it allows the player to raise what are called Prans -– humanoid companions that start out as a fairy and grow to look like human girls, albeit with very long ears. The game places an emphasis on your interaction with these Prans, who, as they grow and evolve, change in-game events as well as augment your abilities in battle. It is also possible to customize the Pran with accessories and clothes commonly given away during quests and online events.

Everything is irrelevant but the fact that you raise your own loli is significantly important.
I for one would like to play this game, i appears to be F2P.

>The last game to be covered here is Le Ciel Bleu, a game operated in Japan by Userboy Japan. This game, with beautiful anime art, is based in an original fantasy world that loosely draws its origins from Greek mythology. The game takes pride in its ability to run on almost all computers, no matter how low its specs are, and in the fact that you can raise a pet and have it grow alongside you. This pet can then interact with others in different ways and can help in battle. However, the greatest aspect of this game is its classes.

>There are six main classes: Ranger, Sword Man, Archer, Magician, Healer, and Nighter (assassin), and four multi-job classes: Magic Knight, Gunner, Maid & Butler, and Might. As usual, each class has its strengths and weaknesses, but to allow flexibility, the game actually allows you to change class. You aren’t bound to be a Magician the whole way through; instead, you can switch to a Sword Man (the game’s version of a Knight) at a moment’s notice. This allows for a versatile experience and for you to experiment and raise your character the way you want.

Please don't.

I put myself through the torment of playing that shit and I really wished I hadn't.
The skill system's RO-esque and it seems like it has the potential to be fun, but the grind goes to astronomical levels. It's not even worth taking a glance at.

But in case you're doing it anyway you still need to use a proxy for the first time logging in, after which you'll be fine.

Wise choice, friend.

Aika looks pretty cool though, thought about trying it out ever since Steparu first covered it.
It's unlikely that it'll come out here soon, so I may just hop in and start loli-raising; but to tell the truth I'm 99% sure that behind that hnnnnngh exterior is a shitty generic MMO with the usual generic shitty mechanics.
Face it, none of these will ever be good.

Except Blade & Soul

I'm assuming you didn't hear? Not only did they fix the exp reqs, they made them BETTER than DnF. Old DFO: 11m exp required for level 39-40. DnF: 4m exp required. New DFO: 2.9m.

Not only that, but they just increased the level cap two days ago. It's 50 now. There's basically no reason why anyone shouldn't play it.
