Red War is a free downloadable fantasy-based MMORPG. Along with all the usual fantasy-type gaming features it offers the unique features of players participating in the 'Red War' and 'Monster Race' as well as cloning your character.
The graphics in this game are of good quality, but they are not top of the range. The classes look nothing like the images advertising them, and, in my opinion, when in-game, it's difficult to tell the classes apart.
The maps are very basic, and the characters themselves are not very detailed. One of the most visually annoying things in the game are the NPC players in the towns. All of the NPCs are huge in comparison to the playable characters. And on top of this they are also bathed in a glowing light. I know that these features are there to help everyone locate the NPCs but it actually makes the game look immature, as though it's aimed towards a younger audience.
MMOHut, "Even though there are a boat load of free to play games on the market - I feel that so many of them are using the same old recycled ideas over and over again. New games like Grand Fantasia by Aeria Games and Cloud Nine by Netgame are great, but they're still the 'same old' generic 3D Fantasy MMORPGs that game developers have been churning out for the last 3+ years. Sure, these newer MMORPGs are more 'refined' as gameplay is constantly getting more fluid while graphics keep on improving, but fundamentals remain the same..."
Uforia sent over a press release announced that Red War will be adding a host of new maps, items, a rare system and lucky boxes after the scheduled maintenance at 8 PM PST (11/4/09).
From the review "Red War's graphics were simply an eye sore. If the game had been released in say…. 1999 rather than 2009, the graphics would have been 'acceptable'. Terrible for even 1999 standards, but still acceptable."
That is a really well done review. Thank you!
