The pickaxe in Territory War Online is awesome. Makes for fewer stalemates.

I do not actually like the new game. Just my opinion though.

I do not actually like the new game. Just my opinion though.

I liked it, it just wasn't complex enough. Faction relations are too binary; why should the Blademasters not have an interest in attack Merchant or Mercenary caravans to gain funding? Does it not make sense for the Alliance to attack the Wizards for aiding the Shadow Runners? There needs to be more complex relationships between factions for the gimmick to be interesting. It's too easy just to max out your relation with one side of the board by just completing one faction's quests and ignoring their enemies entirely.

The skills need to be more expensive various, as it is WAY too easy just to max out all skills for your level. There needs to be some thought put into leveling up your character, perhaps limiting skill improvement through skill points or finding quest items/NPC's. Passive skills would also be a plus.

Most of the quests can be summed up as either kill X amount of Y enemies or getting Z item by killing Y enemies. The only really interesting ones involved the caves (unless the impossible to get final quest involves a raid on the enemy castle). It's not THAT interesting, but the boss takes some strategy to beat. It'd be more fun if the caves were more Zelda-esque, with treasure chests and secret areas. ONLY killing enemies by using the same 1-2-3 combo gets old without new incentives.

Other various gripes include the occasional invisible avatar (you can only see particles from spells), having to click each time to attack, iffy targeting with multiple enemies, and a cheapass final section where you've done all the quests you can and have to farm enemies. Maybe a sequel could do this game some good, as it DOES have a lot of potential. I just wish that killing enemies and gaining favor with factions meant more than a different name for the item store.
