The best alternative to a pay-to-play MMORPG. Why pay when Archlord is free and created by professionals!

Since Archlord has become free-to-play, one should compare this game to other free MMORPG's. Most free MMORPG's have many bugs, but that is not the case with Archlord. Archlord has outstanding graphics (Remember... comparing free MMORPG's), the visuals never bore you. This MMORPG has all the necessities that you would normally find in most MMORPG's plus more. The features are endless from potions that mutate one's character into an animal to clicking on the minimap making one move to a location. Quests are organized in the quest window. Guild windows show a lot of interesting statistics such as one's rank in the guild and the guild's rank to other guilds.

Graphics - 10
==========
From what I've seen for free, these graphics put all other free-to-play MMORPG's graphics to shame.

Music - 8
=======
The background music never gets old, yet doesn't have any climatic moments.

Sound - 10
=========
The sounds in Archlord are very crisp. No sputters or white noise.

Gameplay - 10
============
Besides quests, leveling, and player versus player, Archlord introduces bounties on players, and the ultimate goal of becoming Archlord.

Overall - 10

Now that Archlord is free-to-play, Game Spot should seriously consider a new review for this game. Archlord is really one of those hidden treasures out there just waiting to be discovered.
