ROSE Online(Rush on Seven Episodes) is one of the better MMORPGs I have playd. For credibility: I have played Lineage1, Lineage2, Dragon Raja, Asheron's Call, Project Entropia, Helbreath, Ragnarok Online, Final Fantasy XI, Guild Wars, as well as many other Korean based MMORPGs so I have something to base my experience on. 

That set aside let us discuss rose zuly.First of all the graphics to me are very detailed and well polished. The style may appear childish but it is very smooth and plays well. Any item that you equip will change the physical look of your character which is very cool.

Character models appear very well rendered, and while they not be super highly life realistic models, do they really need to be? Visibly the game looks gorgeous and the lands/maps are well developed and I never noticed texture clipping or misalignment; if there was any I was too immersed to notice.

Quests are fun; as fun as quests can be. Sometimes they are tedious but it's like that in most games... and most games tend to leave out quests completely so be glad that rose zuly. has them to begin with. There is a certain level of variance with quests whether they involve item fetching, running, or creature hunting / spawn camping but you don't have to do quests to progress; they are there for fun when you want a break.
The sound in rose zuly.

I did find repetitive but it wasn't a bad thing at all. The music fit the charm of the game itself and provided a good atmosphere. Of course if you are having a really hard time with the style of music you can always turn it off and blast your favorite mp3 player. Sound effects fit the part as well in most cases. Hit sounds and gun shots etc. followed the same atmosphere and style of the rest of the game but once again you can lower the volume or turn them off if you prefer.

Controls are intuitive and they work well. A point and click interface seems to work flawlessly for the most part. Not much else to say about them.. either you like mouse driven controls or you don't.
When I played rose zuly. January 2005 I found a massive amount of players everwhere I went. This can be good and bad.

First it was good because there are plenty of people to ineract with, but it can be bad because when you have hundreds of thousands of people connected to a single server then you're going to experience some lag, kill stealing, and mass spawn camping. The game goes retail tomorrow so expect some of the rose zuly player load to drop along with the negative side effects of over populated servers.

When I played rose zuly. the lag was minor in most cases, and it was definately playable. For being free in beta at the time, I saw past that and accepted it. It wasn't costing me anything to play anyways.

What makes me write this review then if I haven't played for so long? Well to be honest I'm about to subscribe, and probably I will be subscribing right after this review because I had been thinking of an MMO to get myself into. Well why did I stop playing? Simply because of the over crowded servers and it wasn't getting any better as word got out about the game more and more. Now that the game is going retail I suspect less of a player load but still a good amount of people.

rose zuly has honestly been one of the most if not the most satisfying MMORPG experiences that I have had, and I would easily recommend that anybody experience this game for themselves at least once. I'm not saying that it was perfect when I played because there were bugs and some errors here and there but that's what beta is all about, and statistically even when games first retail there are still many things to do but they are able to address issues more specifically in retail stages whn they don't have to respond to estimates of 500,000 English speaking users that are beta testing and sending out complaints + requests each day.

To sum things up I would at least try the game to see if you like it before you walk away. The normal monthly fee is definately reasonable compare d to the competition and I only see things getting better.
