A well-made MMORPG is immersive, bold, memorable, and dynamic. The MMO genre has unparalleled potential to draw players into a world of visual splendor and action-packed gameplay, a place where they can forge a new identity in the fires of adversity. Fantasy MMOs, in particular, give the player an opportunity to create, customize, and lead a unique hero through a world of danger and beauty. Divine Souls, however, lacks all of these elements, and falls short of the quality MMO mark by a wide margin.
Divine Souls may not be not the best action MMORPG to come out this year, but it could certainly be a contender. In closed beta it had a number of bugs, none entirely game breaking, but those have been mostly addressed and corrected just in time for the impending open beta. So what is Divine Souls? Does it have anything that sets it apart from the current grind of MMORPG’s on the market? There are a few bad things about it, I’ll admit, but overall, the game does deliver some overwhelmingly good elements.
For the second time in it's short life, Divine Souls died again. It already died once when Outspark died and it died again when it was returned back to GamePrix. T_T
Divine Souls has relaunched as an Action RPG/MOBA with bonus XP, and super cheap cash shop items to celebrate the relaunch until November 8th.
