Cabal Online

Review

Reviewed by Mister Combat

Cabal Online is a fantasy MMO that has been in development for several years, the beta opened in 2006 but the game was not released until March 2008. The game graphics are good for a free to play game, but they won't blow you away. The character creation offers very little customization, which is a shame. There are six classes in Cabal Online: Warrior, Blader, Wizard, Force Archer, Force Shielder, and the Force Blader. In Cabal online the word "Force" is used in place of "Magic." One thing I found strange in Cabal was the fact that I had to enter a CAPTCHA when logging in, unfortunately this feature does little to stop spamming and botting. (more on that later.) 

You begin your adventure in a small town in the desert. The NPC you start next to will lead you in a series of quests including every major NPC in the small town so that they may introduce themselves to you. 90% of the quest text is worthless in Cabal so feel free to ignore it, just keep an eye on the bottom box that explains your objectives. In Cabal Online you will almost always have kill quests to do which will keep the grinding a bit more interesting. Once you receive your first kill quest, head outside town and try out the combat. You must press a number key for each swing, and you can swing in real time, a feature that makes combat more exciting. As you level, more skills and combat modes become available to you, and the game play will become faster paced and more enjoyable. Early on, the quest line will send you to several exotic locations that are linked together by a portal that is accessible from every town. You'll be hunting in the desert, in a jungle, and in the frigid icelands: the classic locales for any RPG! The scenery and the game play make Cabal more entertaining than most free to play MMORPGs. 

Unfortunately, you won't be be introduced to the game's combo mode until level 10, which consists of timing your attacks with a moving slider: you'll be able to attack faster and deal more damage than with just button mashing. Another interesting feature of Cabal Online is that players may challenge each other to duels and even bet money on the fight. The winner will be rewarded with honor points which can be used to upgrade your character. Playing killing without permission is also available, but anyone who partakes in this will be punished severely, making it rather rare, but the fact that game actually includes open PvP is definitely a plus. To illustrate this point, if someone kills four people, he will be a free target to other players and will drop equipment if he dies. Overall, Cabal Online is one of the best free-to-play MMORPGs currently available. The most visible problem, though, is the level of spamming and botting. Everywhere you go, your chat bar will be full of spams advertising websites where players can buy in-game gold and items. However, this is a very entertaining game worth a try if you have tried everything else.
