Samurai X Live Action


Samurai X Live Action

Finally we got to see kenshin in live action. The movie was great and the action is focused almost the same with manga, thank god. While kenshin is great and have almost the same face with the manga, I couldn't say the same with Sanosuke. It's just wrong but still just minor complain. Other actor, Kaoru, Megumi and Yahiko were great and spot on.

The live action movie take the story from Kenshin meeting with Kaoru, Sanosuke and finally Megumi. The fighting scene in this live action is really neat. The story is really the same with the manga with slightly changes to fix in the movie. The movie was 2hours long with lots of action. I just hoping that they would make another movie until the fight with Makoto Shishio.

Anyway, for whoever have read the manga Samurai X before then this movie is a plus for you guys. The movie really bring out the best in the manga while making sure that if you're not read Samurai X before, you can still enjoy the movie.



Ragnarok Online 2


Ragnarok Online 2

Today started the open beta test for Ragnarok Online 2 that published by AsiaSoft since the mayhem from 27 December 2012 when the server crashed because of overflow player. The game is pretty much point and click which is the same with RO1 but just in 3D. The game right now is pretty much full in all server and the lag is quite nasty. I guess even if the Asiasoft limit players from just 4 country ; Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, the server still couldn't cope with the number of players.

The gameplay as I mentioned before just point and click with spamming skill. The player can choose classes of swordsman  magician, archer and priest. Yup, typical classes and player also need to choose jobs; alchemist, blacksmith, chef or artisan. Couldn't get into quest right now since there are just too many players running around npc which make it hard to accept quest. The monsters also couldn't keep up with number of players, they were killed after just respawn.

I guess, it will be awhile before number of players reduce. At least until the prize money event. If you like traditional MMO game then this game is for you.
