The Secret World User Review

AtariOno

The most intriguing, immersive, and difficult mmorpg to date.

Difficulty:
Very Hard
Time Spent:
20 to 40 Hours
The Bottom Line:
"Immersive"
This game exceeded my expectations 10 fold. I had followed the concept on and off since 2009 when I first caught wind of it. While I was excited back in the day, I lost my mojo after several bad experiences picking up mmo's on opening weekend the year TSW was released. I was patient, and the reviews were fairly lackluster. I skipped out and moved on to other titles. Around Christmas I caught a Steam sale and picked it up for 20 bucks as FTP. I couldn't be happier.

The story is excellent, the cutscenes are well acted and gripping, and the instances, even at low levels, are difficult and all beef.

What a great game! Whether you want puzzle solving, a diorama of talent builds, or scandalous choices to make.. you've got it. Pick this title up. It's free to play, and you don't get the hassle as a moocher like you will with a game like SWTOR.

This game is worth 40. Buy it for 20 on Steam.
