Throne and Liberty

“Throne & Liberty represents a significant step forward in the MMORPG landscape, thanks to its technical innovations and meticulously designed world. Large-scale PvP battles, the guild and alliance system, and the integration of a dynamic world make it a unique title in its genre. However, the game faces significant challenges, such as the negative perception of its monetization system and the initial difficulties for newcomers. For genre veterans, the game offers a deep and engaging experience, while new players must be prepared to navigate the initial hurdles. Despite its flaws, Throne & Liberty stands as an ambitious and innovative MMORPG, capable of entertaining long-term players looking to immerse themselves in its vast fantasy world.”

“Throne and Liberty is a visually stunning MMORPG that brings a lot to the table with its lush environments and old-school PvP gameplay. However, its overly complicated mechanics could prove to be a significant barrier for many players.”

“An old school MMO dragged up to a modern standard. NCSoft and Amazon have a distinctly Korean fantasy adventure finessed for a global launch. The result is n enjoyable leap into a vibrant world that is more than worth the total cost of zero dollars down.”

“Throne and Liberty is an MMORPG that brings back the spirit of the classic games of the genre, while introducing some modern features that give it its own character.”

“Throne and Liberty has some solid ideas, but it's mostly held up by the combat and exploration, rather than the actual MMO elements.”

“Throne and Liberty is an ongoing game, so the story could become more fleshed out, the mechanics you use to interact with the world could become more nuanced, and the technical issues could be fixed. But as it all stands now, it's just an okay way to dip your toe into a relatively console-friendly MMORPG that doesn't demand endless amounts of your time for you to enjoy - although there are better games to play with your precious hours. If you're looking for something deeper than that, though, you won't find it here.”

“Throne & Liberty is one of the most impressive and refreshing MMORPG’s in years. While it’s easy to initially dismiss it as “just another one of those MMOs,” those that dig deeper may come to realize Throne & Liberty is the perfect MMO to bring them back into the fray. If you have the choice, play it on PC.”

“Throne and Liberty from developer NCSOFT and publisher Amazon Games is starting on the right note. The game offers a bevy of content, a fun and complicated backend, and enough motivation to keep exploring and grinding its lands. It does need better direction and connection with quests, as well as balanced PvP. As it stands, the start is good, and the future looks like it could be better.”

“Throne and Liberty is a good MMORPG with a well-built narrative, combat and progression system, excellent visual quality, and a vast amount of content to explore for solo players and guilds. Its only limitations come from what one would expect from a free-to-play game and the story that ends up falling into several clichés.”

“Throne and Liberty is an entertaining and well-made MMORPG, boasting spectacular graphics and an active community that brings it to life. However, its lack of innovation in some areas and its potential leanings toward unfair monetization take away some points. Even so, it’s a recommended title for those looking for a new MMORPG with vast landscapes, global events, and cinematics that immerse players in the story. Throne and Liberty is a solid game that, while it doesn’t revolutionize the genre, delivers on its promises: an epic and enjoyable experience, with moments best experienced by diving into its expansive world alongside other players. It may not be the greatest MMORPG of all time, but it’s certainly worth a shot if you enjoy the genre. If NCSoft manages its monetization and future content wisely, it could become a standout title.”

“There's no denying that Throne and Liberty is a visual treat and certainly one of the best looking MMORPGs to come along in some time. Furthermore, though its massive world event battles impress, as does its innovative take on shapeshifting traversal, Throne and Liberty's flair-free combat, banal quest design and cluttered UI all weigh down a genre effort that deserves better.”

“I really enjoy Throne and Liberty’s colorful world, detailed environments, and engaging combat. Though the story is pretty uninspired, the game is technically polished and that alone is worthy of praise. But as a primarily solo player, the game isn’t for me in the long run. That’s not really a criticism, because being built for groups isn’t a bug, it’s a feature. That was true back at the dawn of MMORPGs and sometimes it’s still true. I think Throne and Liberty has a lot of promise to succeed at launch and grow beyond it.”

“NCSoft is back with a brave and free MMORPG that still has to polish some elements, especially in its console version.”

“Throne and Liberty might end up being a fine MMORPG in the long term, but currently, it has little in the way of new or interesting ideas to draw players away from other heavyweights in the genre.”

“Throne and Liberty delivers impressive character progression systems, buttery smooth and satisfying combat, and captivating story for an MMORPG. It may lack a few features to keep me coming back again and again for more, but it's a thoroughly enjoyable experience”

“If you’ve been looking for something that puts the MMO back into MMORPG, this is could be just what you’re looking for.”

“Throne and Liberty is a full-fledged next-gen RPG thanks to both his impactful visual style as well as an incredibly polished gameplay. The game sets whole new standards for the genre, hence looking like a promising future is ahead. Now it is time to see if Throne and Liberty can truly shine on its own.”
