I miss L2 but I would never play it again
Lineage 2

Is it true that the leveling experience becomes less grindy with friends/other people? I've heard that everyone does it, but I'd like to level up solo too.

>where is the challenge in this game
Guild vs guild. It's very much a collectivism/prisonyard simulator. That was part of its draw, it was one of the last MMOs that tried to make a true persistent brutal zero-sum world before everything became instanced WoW themeparks.

It's a very old MMO, "painful solo experience" was the standard back then. Maybe shit is easier in the official "modern" servers, but I don't know much about them.
Adrian Bell
afaik nuL2 bears little resemblance to the original game, it's the epitome of f2p cash-in now from what I've heard, I'm doubtful it's worth playing

if you made a decent constant party you were able to reach max lv in a week or two(when cap lv was 99 official server) but this game has always been a gear based game and thats where the korean market begins. everything that turns your character into a "proper assist or DD" its only obtainable by cash store.. and the korean audience liked this, thats why their kr servers are still more or less alive. also like other user mentioned before they instanced the game
Logan Martinez
It wasn't p2w at the start but chinese adena farmers were such a problem and they royally fucked the economy to the extent where anyone trying to play legit was screwed due to currency inflation, this was probably the moment where Korea realized "hey why the fuck should we let chinks ruin our game when we can just ruin it ourselves"

I would also like to try it, but I legit can't find a link to download the game on NCSoft's website. All download links I can find just give me their launcher, which doesn't have LIneage 2 on it and only Blade and Soul because apparently you have to have a game installed to get it to appear on there.
If anyone can tell me how to navigate that fucking nightmare of a website and actually direct me to a Lineage 2 download link that actually gives me lineage 2, I will be very grateful.

So I was watching a decently-sized YT gamer trying this game for the first time in 2020 and his thoughts were:
Pros
>still has a decent pop
>epic castle sieges
>epic castle bosses
>cool looking armor/weapons
>huge open world
>one of the best mmo soundtracks
>race specific starting areas
Cons
>You can't jump
>out of date graphics and engine
>click to move, WASD feels really bad
>f2p/p2w
>character customization lacking
>grindy/bot style of game progression
Would you agree guys?
