Shaiya Light and Darkness

Shaiyla, Light and Darkness is a MMORPG steeped in ancient mystery.  In the old times of the gods, there was a goddess named Etain, she had created three races, the Dragons,  the Nordein and the Dumianas. The goddess soon came to learn the Nordien faults in doing wrong and casted them into the soil of Teos.  The Dumianas in their pride and arrogance challenged their creators authority and power.  Etain was weakened and sad by their disbelief and she was then killed by them, Etains soul was torn in to two.

After the death of the goddess, Teos was left unprotected and the other gods sought to take control over Teos and Shaiya Promo Shot 1created monsters to invade and destroy it. The race of the Dragons ran for the safety of the mountains as the chaos and destuction consumed the world.  As the dust settles Toes is now is watched over by two goddesses and the remaining of the Dumaina race have been divided into two factions, one for each goddess.

The two factions, the Elves and the Vail now continuously find them selves in conflict with each other.  Being fueled from old age tensions.  Soon after the humans join the forces of Elves while the Nordien that were buried under the soils reemerge as “Death eaters” and have allied with the Vail.  These two  factions, the Alliance of Light and Union of Fury now clears Teos from monsters that still remain and have started a never ending war with each other to gain control over the whole of Teos.

ShaShaiya Promtional shot 2iya is an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) which has been rated adult due to its graphical violence and controversial scenes of nudity and depravity.  The game is Free to Download as while as Free To Play.  It should be said it is one of those games that really could be a great fun without having to actually pay for it.  Basically what makes this game unique compared to the rest of the games in the MMO line is that the controls are kind of based as a first person shooter but all the interactions and gameplay is still MMORPG.  Its nice to find that you can actually move around using the modern style of keys (W, S, A, D) instead of old school arrow keys.  While most MMOs support this too but some MMOs lack this ability and don’t give options to change them, no matter which the controls, modern or old, all the games are basically interactive through one button and this is the left mouse click which you will find the same in this game.  There could be more said on the control system but its well enough to say that game has an excellent key mapping for controls.

There are a total of 12 classes to choose from, six for each faction and six styles of gameplay.  The Alliance of Light classes are Defender, Fighter, Priest, Ranger, Archer and Mage.  While the classes of tShaiya Screen Shot 1he Vail are Guardian, Warrior, Oracle, Assassin, Hunter, Pagan.  The classes  of Defender, Guardian, Fighter and Warrior are the melee classes, one is based on defensive melee while the other on offensive.  Priest and Oracle are the healing classes and attempt to do their best with groups but they are weak at defense and offense.  The Assassin and the Ranger class are unique as they are basically  still melee gameplay but with high skills in being agile and critical hits.  Archer and Hunter class you can guess from their name are the ranged classes and lastly the Mage and the Pagan are spell casters.

The game is a sandbox type game, player can free level on their own or take quests from NPCs which usually require to kill some monsters.  They players have the ability to choose their difficulty which is an amazing quality of the game as most MMOs don’t support such things.  The player has the ability to chat in the game via a chat box which can be customized for own likes.  Similar to World of Warcraft the player has the ability to have mounts.  Mounts are animals that be ridden and kept as pets.

Another amazingly unique feaShaiya Screen Shot 2ture is the “Blessing of the Goddess” this ability allows the complete faction on which side you belong receive bonuses that can be enhanced by fighting and gaining points in PvP (Player Verses Player) battles. The bonuses apply to both PvP and PvE (Player Versus Environment).  Usually the bonuses are on health or mana capacity or regenerations.

Over all the game is very entertaining and the fun part is that it is Free unlike other games in the same line such as WoW the game is totally free, I give the game 10/10 as it satisfies all the elements of a good MMORPG.
