Metin2 is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) developed by Ymir Entertainment Co., Ltd. and released in China in 2004.[1] It has since been published in many European countries by Gameforge 4D GmbH[2], in the USA[3] by G4Box Inc and in Singapore[4] by TEC Interactive Pte. Other versions exist in Asian languages.

Story

A long time ago there was only a single empire that existed in the continent. The land experienced tranquility and peace and did not know the conflating deadly diseases that spread around the world. Innocent people suffered as those who were slain by these beasts or choked to death by disease later rose again as undead. The undead caused chaos and destruction in their wake with seemingly endless numbers. Their tireless existence appeared as if this problem was not going to go away. Eventually the single empire collapsed and became three different kingdoms, all fighting for their own survival. To this very day, they still treat each other as enemies.

The falling of the Metin Stone was just the beginning of what was yet to come. Smaller stones continued to fall from time to time, and all three Kingdoms lived in fear. None would dare approach the Metin Stones because the most terrifying creatures roam around them. Recently, it was discovered that the power of the Metin Stone was growing and people felt that it was consuming energy from the world.

Characters

Players can choose to be in one of four categories: Warrior, Shaman, Ninja or Sura. Each category may have subcategories in which the player can specialize in. Each class have 2 trees, so this mean one for PvP one for PvE.

Gameplay

Player versus Player (PvP)

PvP in Metin2 is available once a character reaches level 15. There are 3 ways to battle other players. The first is to challenge a person to a duel by right-clicking the desired opponent and selecting the "Duel" option. This is the most common way and in the case of death, no experience points are lost. The second way is to fight a player from a different kingdom. This way does not require requesting a fight as kingdoms are preset to be hostile to each other. In the case of death, experience points can be lost. The third way is to activate the "free" option under the game play menu. This allows players to attack and be attacked by any player regardless of kingdom or consent. Experience cant be lost this way and rank points are lost when in this mode. If a player loses too many rank points, their rank will change to "cruel" and they will have negative points. At level 50 or above, Cruel rank (title) players have a chance to drop items when killed by other players.
