This one is called Silkroad Online, a game which was made in Korea ( so obviously the korean version of the game is ahead of the International version), yet unlike many other asian games outside of China or Japan, it is very good. First to note is that like Gunz, its free, second note: you can download through torrents OR just download it direct ( great if you have a 300mbps connection like me). It is an MMORPG, and although many people might not have heard of it, it is certainly not a backwater or bad game.
Like many other games, the weapon and armor system can work on a + (plus) system. with the most recorded in the iSRO version being about +10. Seal of Star ( also known simply as SOS), is equivalent to a weapon being +5(APPROXIMATELY, since its still stronger than a +5 of the same thing). SO moon is most equivalent to +10, and so sun most equivalent to an Seal of Star PLUS Seal of moon, 2ndly most equivalent to +15. in addition to a weapon/armor piece being sealed( star, moon or sun, which CANNOT be made, only found in their sealed state), they can ALSO be PLUSED (+) normally as well, further increasing their power.
this image is a seal of sun weapon ( which also has a couple of +'s on it) on the highest degree ( degrees in the game are like ranks, each degree starts and ends at a certain level, like levels 1,8,16,24, and 32 for example). The weapon sprite itself resembles the tip of weapon seal of star status but is also combined with the swirling, snake like beam of light only on a seal of moon weapon.
PVP: This game is great for PVP, although many asses and noobkillers do their part to contribute to the misery of new players. TO prevent people from randomly coming up and killing you, it works on a cape system. wear a cape ( which you must be at least level 10 to wear), and you can pvp. the color of the cape represents which people you can attack, if you wear red, you can attack everyone with capes except those with red capes. however, if you wear an orange cape, you can attack everyone with capes, INCLUDING those with orange capes. In my honest opinion, its more efficient than the world of warcraft system or other systems where you can ONLY fight with people near your level, or just be a certain level JUST to even start pvping (Rappelz online for example) and those levels are like 32, which can take days to achieve.
The guild and friend system works near identical to others as well, basically in terms of number of people, starting from lowest to greatest: single player ( just you, noone else) parties ( which are temporary, and you are removed from the party either if everyone leaves, the party leader boots you, or if you disconnect)., Guilds ( standard, LARGE LARGE LARGE connection of people), and Unions ( a fairly new concept, where entire guilds make up a single union, and a lead Guild is in charge, specifically the guild master of the head guild, who adds and removes guilds from the union). friends can be added and removed as wished.
Overall, I think since its FREE with premium items ( which only include alchemy items to boost weapond and such) being the only thing that you can use money on and buying gold, fun, good graphics ( NOT INSANE, but not at all bad), good gameplay and great PVP, its worth a download. There, I made a post. I'll probably be making a lot tho so yea. hope you don't have "ADD" like Eric Lee suggests *facepalms*. laterz.

Such a long post. O.O Must've taken a while to make. my short-ish posts takes me forever already. >.< Lol. I actually have come across that game before. Someone told me it takes place in China somewhere. Lol. But I never got around to it. I dont like downloading too many games for fear of hurting my computer. =/
Although there is a lot of server traffic in much of its servers, its an extremely fun and addicting game. especially the European set. the game takes place between China, Middle East, and Europe (although iSRO only consists of European and Chinese factions), during the beginning to middle of the invention of the Silkroad. there is not true story to it, but its extremely fun.
