Albion Online... oh boy.

Well we all have seen the ads on youtube and I decided to try it out. First a little something about the game tho. Albion Online is an MMORPG game where you can gather resources, craft items, focus on economy, kill monsters in dungeons and fight against other people.

Pros & Cons

PROS:
- The game is really easy to get into. You start on a tutorial Island which tells you everything you need to know at the start. Also you get free 3 days of premium which I suggest you use a little later.
- You can choose between a lot of weapons that you want to use. All the weapons are fun and unique. There are many classes of weapons like daggers, bows, swords, maces, shields, staffs (ice staffs, fire staffs, healing staffs)... oh well you get the idea. There is a lot! Also there is a bunch of different armor.
- You are what you wear. Yes, you don't choose a class you want to play as like mage, instead you can alternate between "classes". You can wear mage armor and have daggers if you want. This opens up so many different styles for you to play as.
- This is PRO and CON; the game gets really heavily PvP sided where you need to also fight other players. The risks are mostly you losing your gear to the other player. If you win, you take his stuff and sell it for money of course.
- NOT A PAY TO WIN: In Albion Online you can upgrade your account to Premium Account. This can be done by purchasing gold with real money or buying it with in game silver. You buy 30 Premium days and then your XP/Fame is doubled. This isn't actually too hard to get just by playing without the Premium status a week or so, but then there is the option to use real money.
- In Albion Online the economy is fully player driven. All the items... EVERYTHING is player crafted. There is a normal Market and Black market. By crafting your own equipment you save money, but definitely not time, but crafting is one of the best ways to make money still in Albion Online.

CONS:
- If you don't like high risk high reward type of MMORPG, then this is not your game. Albion is mostly a PvP game and you can really lose motivation when dying with a lot of stuff and losing that to another player.
- The options to get Fame/XP and silver are limited. This is my own opinion, but the PvE content is very limited and defenitely not a great way to progress in the game later if you don't want to PvP.

Pelihän on todella mukava tapa viettää aikaa. Jos etsit chilliä FPS peliä nii täs on kyl semmoi. Peli on erittäin aloittelija ystävällinen, joka ei suosi veteraanipelaajia. Sen takia suosittelen sitä, että ET osta uutena pelaajana uusia aseita, koska se on pelin sisäsen rahan Certification (Certs) pointsien tuhlaamista. Uudet aseet EI ole parempia ---> ne vain avaavat uusia pelitapoja. Eri aseet ovat parempia eri tilanteissa. Siksi aluksi rahat kannattaa käyttää eri roolien abilityihin ja niiden upgradeemiseen.
