Another Korean MMO, and everything that's likely to bring. *sigh*.
At least you have to give the Korean developers credit for not entirely abandoning the genre, despite occasional ideas that just don't register with Western audiences.

Refreshing pages have resulted in a number of 'Need to resend info' pop-up messages from Firefox this afternoon. I think the goat may be occasionally distracted.

A game where the selling point is dazzlehappy. It reminds me of the days when I loaded customizable screen savers, just on the dazzlehappiness factor. The actual game reminded me of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game, especially the move…
