A copy of Lineage 2: The Chaotic Throne (I think that's the name) has come across my desk. I'm looking for a free lance reviewer interested in checking it out and writing up something for the site.

I have gone into and out of L2 for some time now ... both actual and private servers. Most recently I hopped back in when they released the latest expansion and the new race, the Kamael. So I don't know if you're looking for someone to give you an overview of what has been and what has recently come out or if you are looking for a fresh perspective, but I thought I would throw my name out there anyway.

I have a bit of an MMORPG addiction and have played just about everyone of them out there. I tend to hop from one to another fairly rapidly. Right now I am in WoW and LotRO and seem pretty satisfied. We'll just have to wait and see how long it lasts. ^_^

I'd review it, if you needed me to.

Although, I must confess complete ignorance about the game. What is it?

It's a MMORPG developed in Korea and brought over here by NCSoft several years ago. It just released its largest expansion a month or so ago that added a new playable race to the game for the first time ever. Since it is a Korean game, it is very much a "grind" MMO, so be warned.

I vote for this guy, he seems to have a frame of reference and his sentences aren't full of internet speak.

*cough* Ummm ... *checks pants* ... I'm a girl ... thank you. :D

Just joking around, no big deal. It happens all the time. It's the whole "oh look, a girl on the interwebs" thing. :p

Will it work on my DS?

Just kidding, I'm probably the wrong person to review this game cos I dont like grinding.

Ah yes, then this is definitely the wrong game for you. However, if you get a tablet for your PC, hook up a long cord to it, map the controls for the game to it, and then sit really far back, squint your eyes and turn your head at a 45 degree angle ... you could pretend it's on your DS perhaps?

Sorry ... I haven't had any caffeine this morning and it makes my brain function, shall we say, oddly.

I'd love to give it a shot for you. Loudly mouthing off about MMORPG's is my speciality and I've not seen owt of L2 since beta.

I'd be willing to do it. I've had only nominal contact with Lineage 2, so if you're looking for a perspective from a new player I'd be a good choice.

I think whenever it's come up in a thread, it seems like literally less than one out of a hundred EvAv members are female.

My bad! You know what happens when you assume...

Dont worry, I know the feeling. I do have a PC, but seeing as I got bored of WoW after one month I dont think this is the game for me!

Mind you, I guess a reviewer is supposed to offer an impartial opinion, so...

Nah, I'm sure someone who really really loves Lineage would offer a better, more informed opinion. Why dont you review it?

You've already gotten some responses, but being a big MMO fan myself, would be interesting to see how well I could put together a review for one. So, I'll throw my name into the hat.

I'll do it if you don't mind a review that's predisposed towards hatred.

Got someone to do it. If another op comes in the future I'll do another post.
