Throne and Liberty

Throne and Liberty is at its core an old-school player-versus-player MMO with a defined focus on world and large-scale group combat. While graphically stunning, an average combat system and a potentially divisive monetization model hold back this otherwise extremely competent MMORPG.

Like most MMORPGs, the fate of Throne and Liberty will rely heavily on the decisions NCSoft and Amazon Games make in regard to future content. Nothing beats a solid MMORPG launch; and so far, at least the Early Access launch has been incredibly smooth. But the ability to keep meaningful and fun content coming is what keeps players logging in and overall making the MMO feel worth playing. In its cu...

With impressive storytelling, amazing combat and interesting upgrading systems, Throne and Liberty excels where many MMORPGs fail right off the bat. My main concern is that I just don't know if there is something there to keep me coming back and wanting to improve my character. If I don't know how well I'm performing and how much I'm contributing to the group, how will I know I need to improve? Fu...

Throne and Liberty is off to a strong start, especially with a price of free. The campaign may be derivative, but it does serve as a great intro for the game’s various systems. Transforming into other creatures is a versatile ability that offers a unique way to play. Whether turning into a four-legged beast as essentially a free mount, or an otter-like creature to traverse bodies of water, or even...

Decades after games like Everquest and World of Warcraft began to define the MMORPG genre, developers are still birthing new ones, hoping to siphon enough players from some other game to theirs. There are at least a few types of MMORPG fans. One group consists of dedicated players who form strong, years-long ties to a guild or group of friends and a specific game. For those folks, the PvP experien...

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.

NCSOFT's Throne & Liberty has the bones of the Lineage series but doesn't live up to its legacy. Here is our review.

Guy , plays for 2 days finishes the main story and thinks he has enough info to make a decent review this game is awesome battle pass isnt needed Guilds are great World events and bosses consisting of an incredible and uncounted number of players youve probably never seen as many players doing a lvl 12 to 15 event consisting of people of every level the game has some bugs i will admit but for a ga...

Throne and Liberty is a fantasy MMORPG that debuted in Korea last December. Since its global launch the free-to-play game has dominated Steam's concurrent players and top-sellers charts. While it's certainly popular, a long list of technical issues and uninspired mechanics cast doubts over its longevity.

I have no doubt that Throne and Liberty will find a niche in the MMO community that it somehow speaks to. And I’m happy for those people that they will find something to enjoy here. But for most players, I don’t think Throne and Liberty will have anything valuable.
