Ha, told you I’d get in! Now, my problem isn’t trying to get in, it’s doing my best to stay in the game. Let me explain.
As you may have noticed, my wife also plays MMORPGs, and it’s been quite a while since she has taken a liking to any of the new games I’ve been laying my hands on these past four or five months.
First, we rekindled our passion for our first MMORPG, Ragnarok Online. It was shortlived. My wife decided to keep playing Perfect World, leaving me saddled with the responsibility of leveling our twin Tika Waylans on Ragnarok …read more
Dekaron: Hate fishing? Finish the newbie dungeon and get a boost

Yes, I hate fishing in Dekaron! Who doesn’t? Actually, I don’t really see the point why characters need to fish when the fish you catch only either 1) heals you or 2) replenishes your mana. Well, it’s a different matter entirely when you don’t have Dil, the in-game currency.
Still, even if I’m low on cash, I’d rather hunt Akris, which give rather hefty experience points and good items, than fish, which only gives your character a measly 10 to 12 experience points for every catch.
I almost changed my opinion when I got this bauble as a reward for finishing the …read more
Dekaron newbie tip #1: Prioritize the hunt for these beasts

Speaking of Dekaron, here’s a handy tip for newbies to the online game that is currently in open beta phase in Southeast Asia, thanks to its licensed operator, mobiusgames.
Well, Dekaron is just like any MMORPG in the sense that you earn experience either by killing mobs or finishing quests. Dekaron, however, has something akin to a bonus monster. It’s called the Akris (which look like a large deer or moose), and the experience points it gives is higher than the normal mobs and the items it drops include potions and magical weapons and armor.
What’s even better is that they’re not …read more

Here’s something that never changes no matter what MMORPG you play: Vendors and the way they clutter the streets and every nook and cranny of towns and cities.

The week that was and how it should have been

First off, I’d like to apologize to the thousands upon thousands (yeah, right) followers of this space for the seemingly long lull this past week. Truth is, I’ve been slaving in front of the PC to bring you more Asian MMORPG goodness than you can handle.
Well, it has been both a very productive and unproductive week for me, depending on how you look at things. Productive because I’ve been playing non-stop, except for the repeated bathroom breaks due to cold weather and the body’s need to replenish energy by taking in food and getting short, energizing catnaps.
For the most part, …read more

What better way to make diehard MMORPG players salivate for a game than showing them clips upon clips of videos. This is just what mobiusgames, operator of Dekaron in Southeast Asia, is doing.
So, in case you missed the jump onto the Dekaron bandwagon, I suggest you watch these videos to whet your appetite in time for open beta this September:

Well, it’s finally over … the closed beta test of Dekaron Southeast Asia, I mean. I was supposed to post another gripe about the game’s CBT, but decided to forgo it until we go into open beta, which would be the real test both for players and, of course, online games operator mobiusgames.
Here’s the lowdown from mobiusgames:
The End of the Beginning
Closed Beta Testing for Dekaron SEA is now over.
Thank you for playing with us. Team mobiusgames is overwhelmed with your support. We appreciate each and everyone’s contributions in making Dekaron SEA on Closed Beta Testing a success.

Dekaron SEA CBT gripe #1: Frequent disconnections

Mike Leaño, b5media Video Games Channel editor, may still be complaining about not being able to log into Dekaron Southeast Asia using his closed beta account, but not me. I got in, thanks to the timely e-mail I received from mobiusgames, publisher of Dekaron in Southeast Asia. Sigh. Yes, I’m in, but I get disconnected—frequently.
I’m not the only one, judging from the comments on the Dekaron SEA forum. So what’s been causing these disconnections? The guys up at mobiusgames haven’t offered any answers yet, but they’ve opened a thread where players could post their disconnection woes, particularly those who get …read more
Dekaron in Southeast Asia: I’m in!

Yeah, Dekaron, more popularly known as 2Moons in most parts of the world, is now in Southeast Asia, and it is on its second day of closed beta testing. I’m one lucky bastard to get a CBT account. Hmmm, wait a minute. Come to think of it, luck has nothing to do with it, as Mike Leaño, b5media editor for the Video Games Channel, can attest. He also got an account.
As with other new MMORPGs that come my way, I rushed headlong into Dekaron, without doing much research on races, jobs or builds. Hey, the game’s still in closed beta, …read more
