Speaking of PvP, yes there is PvP present within the game.

Sure, cookie cutter builds will always be the go-to, but it doesn’t have to be the case. This type of depth is something I feel is missing from a lot of MMOs. As noted, I went ice but there are fire builds that have a substantially higher damage output than the build I’m using but this provides players a lot of opportunity to craft their class how they want. There are builds in the game, which allows for deeper customization of your character and class. I specced into an AoE ice build as I’m lazy, didn’t want to research another build, and ultimately feel like the CC with ice was beneficial to my team in open-world PvP as it provided my team opportunities to efficiently engage enemies and prevent their escape. They provide beneficial crowd control effects like slows, stuns and at times entire immobilization. I’ve noticed that on specific melee classes, like the Slayer in specific, the combat felt very slow, very clunky and very unintuitive, but on classes like the Elementalist, which you guys should know I’d choose, I couldn’t be having more fun.Ībilities are large, they’re powerful, they’re impactful. Thankfully, combat is where Elyon really shines. Yes, if combat is poor, and combat is what you’ll be spending the majority of your time doing, then you won’t have any incentive – any motivation to play. Sure, zooming in will reveal some horrid looking textures, but that’s the case for a lot of games.Īnd while the graphics are important to a lot of players, what’s even more important is the gameplay. The character models look fantastic, the character animations look decent and special abilities all look great. You can create some stunning looking characters. There’s a lot in the way of customization options. Sure, it might lack the graphical fidelity of something like Black Desert, but this look and feels like an updated amalgamation of both TERA and ArcheAge, 2 games that were – in their prime – some of the most fun I, and a lot of other players ever had. But you can’t go more than a couple minutes without seeing a spike in FPS, which is very noticeable.Įven though Elyon is built using Unreal Engine 3, the game itself is beautiful. Quite the contrary: It’s optimized pretty well. After playing this game for over 40 hours total including the Beta tests, I can say with 100% certainty that maintaining an FPS where the game feels and plays smoothly is nigh-impossible.ĭon’t get me wrong – it isn’t unoptimized to a point where you can’t enjoy yourself.
