Robinvega:
Talisman online has a "ok" look to it and the party questing in special caves/ruins is fun for a while, but it has alot of non-english speaking people and alot of rude people on it. Warrior Epic is alot better and probably one of the few original rpgs(by what I have seen) and judging by this forum it will have a great community.
What I'm gonna write is not flaming, its only a advice that you can take or leave it be.
- you can't expect to have only english speaking people online. It's the WWW after all and we are all connected through it.
- rude people can be found in ANY game no matter if it talisman online or any other game
- only because our community here is nice in the forums, it doesn't mean that it will be the same in game because in the game you won't have only forum goers, you will have other people that doesn't even care about the forums as well. Also nice forum goers can be rude in game you can never tell.
I'm saying all this due to my past experiences in over 40 mmos I tested and played, not trying to be a smartass. :)
A few things about the game real fast:
In my opinion Talisman online can be fun, the graphics are decent, the gameplay is good and after some tweaking between some classes (fairy seems to be a bit unbalanced and assasin too) it can be a very good game.
Tamer is the class I like most there due to the pet system included(you can tame almost every pet available in the game and you have a place you can hold up to 3 pets). Other than that it has many quests and other stuff that keeps you busy and many nice people to play with.
The master system is unique and the extra mini pets that buffs your hp/mp are too.
You can earn reputation and get extra items from the different towns and learn extra living skills that makes you able to create potions and other things.
You can have up to 3 talismans equipped that you can upgrade through the earned energy points by enhancing them.
This unlocks additional skills and makes the talismans (including your weapon) stronger.
Additionaly you can merge talismans as also strenghten/upgrade your armor pieces and your mounts through gems.
The graphics style is held in a mix of fantasy and chinese/korean/japanese mythology.
Lots of places to visit and nice dungeons (there is even one that goes underwater with giant sharks ^^ ).
All in all its a more classical mmo with a few unique features that can be fun to people that are not looking for high end graphics but more for gameplay.
