Hero Plus Online Client

It’s not difficult to get people interested in a new MMORPG, because it’s always nice to experience something new and maybe find what you were looking for. However, the real struggle is to keep the players interested over long periods of time, because you need a lot of content and engaging gameplay mechanics to do that. Hence, few games have managed it, while others were forgotten after a few months.

Hero Plus is a fantasy MMORPG that tries to portray a mix between feudal Japan and the usual fantasy elements, including wizards and monsters. However, the game itself is mostly centered around grinding aimlessly around empty and expressionless environments, which is probably not the way you want to spend your leisure time. The character customization options are not very extensive either.

There are only a handful of classes to choose from, and you cannot really change anything about them in the beginning. Some of the classes are men only and some are women only, which greatly limits your options. After you are done choosing your character, you venture into the game world and you quickly realize that nothing exciting happens, given the fact that you are greeted by an old lady that asks you to kill a couple of wolves.

The game world and the level design are by far the most annoying and disappointing elements, because MMOs have to encourage exploration. However, everything looks bland and boring, with only a handful of trees/buildings here and there. Monsters will aggro on you the second you try to move forward, even if you stay on the road. Hence, you are pretty much stuck in the starting zones, at least until you can kill everything that moves on your way to the next town.

As a ‘bonus’, the user interface is terrible as well, which makes it difficult to control the character. The combat system is a joke, in the sense that all you need to do is click on the enemy and way, with no real strategy involved. You are also pretty weak in the beginning, so you cannot even handle wolf pups, despite the fact that you are a massive warrior with a giant sword in his hands.

All things considered, there are far better alternatives out there besides Hero Plus, especially now that most of them are free as well. Hence, unless you are purposely trying to be annoyed on a regular basis, you shouldn’t approach the game, and try something else instead.
