The tileset is extremely ugly. The graphics are even uglier.

NicoX is manager of GK right? Say goodbye to that server.

To the tileset, it's not the best true, but I doubt it's "extremely ugly" for the majority. And the graphics.. well, it's your opinion yes but those screenshots didn't even show you 1% of the server.

What I can say about Nico, you dislike him because of what you either know about him or heard about him. He did a well job on iZone as administrator until he retired, and he raised the playercount of GK a lot, and the Nihil Coins-Shop (ingame coins you may purchase with Gelats) were a success aswell, being lead by NicoX. If I could tell you the number of Gelats being spent for Nihils in 2 weeks, you'd change your mind.

Edit (reply to Skills post):
The News of the Client says so, and I'm part of its staff so I can verify this aswell.

thats true loyalty for you  

It's not worth playing unless it comes with some fixes to the game and a completely fresh server. The gap between starting players and established players is insanely huge, and the only way to come close to having the kind of equipment they have is to either buy stuff with USD from someone selling it, or to gamble your gelats (also USD) with the new coin shop they have.

Incorrect.
There are lot of other ways to gain equipment, it just takes its time but that's in any other game aswell. You can get to two places, one is a dungeon another is a ... let's call it "mission"-thing. Leveling and getting loots the same time, and if you have luck the loots will be worth a lot. But if you really are interested into this, I'd explain it to you once you'll play the game (in general, not only meant you since you have 1xxx hours already).
Also, there are events which do not require skills to win, to win good items. I agree with you, there is a gap but the gap isn't s huge as it was anymore, and it's getting smaller and smaller with any new update.

The grind to get the equipment is way too high though. I know that new crafting stuff was added recently that isn't just generic stuff, but the amount of farming you need to do to get them is too high. Having to do events on an RPG game to get loot is really annoying as well. It means you have to wait for a staff member to come on to host an event that you hope you win in order to have a chance at getting some currency to craft the good items.

The leveling system is incredibly broken too. Leveling with alchemy is really stupid, and should have been fixed when it was first discovered. As for leveling your other skills, the grind is way too high and it's really cheesy. I know that you can level up in a group doing the crypt, and it sounds really fun too, but I was really let down by it. I did it once a while back and it was just setting up directors and spamming a holy word spell.

The game has a lot of potential though. There's a huge laundry list of other things that would be nice to have fixed but I'm sure you can go visit the official forums to take a look at some of them. I'd love to play it again if they did fix some of them and give the server a fresh start though.

I personally liked it more when it was G2k1 v2.0 rather than a number crunching grind. But I realize there are players who dig that insane sort of meta gaming aspect.



I won't say I vouch for him, I don't know him... but I've seen way more updates and activity for GK from him in the last couple of months than I did for GK as a whole in the past 5 years.

That's good, you don't want to know him.

Who are you?  

@Albus, I see your points and I agree partly, but 'It's not worth playing' is not true at all.

@TwistedWizard, again. From where do you know NicoX? From iZone, am I right?

No, you aren't.  

I'm banned from GK, and NicoX is a power hungry twit. Banned me for telling him to stop raging in events.

Your opinion, won't argue about that. But this thread is about the server, not its management.

That's stupid to say. The management is part of the server.

Hello Twisted,

I just remembered who you are. You were one of the applicants for iGK.

Hello, Nico! I saw your thread, and thought I'd give it a go to become part of the Storyline Team on Graalonline Kingdom! If interested in myself, please message me back and I'll give any needed information. I was once a Storyline Administrator on a PC server 'Prometheus' for a little bit, before the server was removed and I enjoyed the opportunity it presentated. Thanks for your time, and for this chance!

Other then that, I don't know you.
Good night.
