Last weekend, publisher NC-Soft held the third Closed Beta Event of the upcoming fantasy MMO ArcheAge. I was invited again this time and was able to play the game myself. In this video, I would like to share my first impressions and talk a bit about the various mechanics. This ranges from simple movement to the combat system to the hotly debated item shop.
Basically, ArcheAge, which was already released on January 15, 2013, in Korea, is a free-to-play title once it comes to the European market. However, this did not stop the developers or the publisher from offering an item shop as well as a founders pack, which grants early access to the game and a few nice items (e.g., gliders) in the game.
