In the last few articles that I've written about The Chronicles of Spellborn, I've talked a lot about things like sound and art style. Both of these subjects are important, and any first-class game needs to be on the ball in terms of these departments, but still, in terms of excitement, nothing compares to talking gameplay.
In this article, you can expect to hear a little something about what you can expect in making and progressing your character. We're talking about races and classes this time around, and, as is the case with most things in The Chronicles of Spellborn, it isn't all what you'd necessarily expect from a fantast MMO.
Races
In many fantasy-based MMORPGs, players are faced with a broad selection of character races. At the very least, you usually get the basics: Human, Elf, Dwarf and some kind of Halfling-type race.
The Chronicles of Spellborn offers only two races. Both of these races were once servitors and slaves to the "Eight Demons" (the bad guys who ruled over the world before it broke into small shards). Now that the Eight Demons aren't such a direct threat, each race is coming to their own.
The first race, is the most obvious: Humans. Humans in The Chronicles of Spellborn are described as versatile and resilient, hard working and great thinking. It was their uprising against a race called the Vhelgar that caused the world to be torn asunder.
The second race is a race totally unique to the Spellborn universe. They look similar to their Human counterparts, but the most glaring difference is in the legs of the Daevi. They are jointed more like an animal than a human. Here's what the developers had to say about the Daevi:
"The Daevi, like the humans, were a servitor race, created to oversee the humans and act as lawgivers during the rule of the Eight Demons. Although being different from Humans in many ways, the Davei found themselves subject to the same treatment by the Vhelgar rulers. Later, an unofficial alliance was formed between the two races, turning yet another race against the Vhelgar and their iron rule... Born as a hybrid race, the Daevi bloodline consists of human and demon blood. This mixture is the main reason for their differences in appearance. The most telltale difference between Humans and Daevi are their legs and feet. Where Humans have a knee and a heel, Daevi walk on their toes and use their heel as a second knee. Their feet are extremely large and angled differently, which makes it impossible for them to wear boots or sandals. Instead, they protect their knees and shins with a different kind of armor."
Obviously, the folks at Spellborn are taking a few risks in their racial department. First, they are only offering two races in a fantasy MMORPG, which, as discussed earlier, is unusual. Second, they have created a different and unique race that no one has heard of before. While this could cause problems for players who would prefer the familiar pointed ears of an elf, or round belly of a Dwarf, it is also indicative of the Spellborn desire to turn the classic fantasy MMO on its ear and create something different and innovative..........Read more ,pls connect the follow link : http://www.agamegold.com/news/news200903302257.html
