The beginning of my online games

This time I'm reviewing about Online games from which a stranger first introduced it to me in a cybercafe. At that point of time when i first saw the games that he was playing was kind of boring since he didn't seem to be doing anything (instead of chatting within the games) other then waiting for the other players to take action. But the thing that caught my interest about the games was on how he can interact with a lot of people just like chatting within a chat room. I have no idea such concept does exist (well, seems may be i never know there such online games before). I used to think that in order to play games through online, you can only able to play by either using multiplayer or direct-connection. But, at that moment I realized there were such online games that we can directly download the client through the net and start playing it for free (Most of them).

Further more not only the interactive kind of concept that caught my interest, the gameplay also seems to be more realistic and fun to play (even though the guy seems not really happy) and challenging since we will be playing with other players in one server. It was this type of games that interest me. Free games and playing it together with others online. What a great concept after all. Before I play an Online games, i used to play Warcraft DOTA and to me,DOTA is just like a duel and it ends very soon. Some people consider it to be very interesting, as for me it seems fun but lack of interest for that type.

During my youth days, I always thought there will be games that you could play with lots of people and not just in a group of 4 or 6 players per room server. Such as Diablo for example, it only allows 4 players per room and this goes the same for Warcraft Dota where you battle between 4 by 4 basis within a room server. I never knew online games exist (because I just busy with my studies at that time) but even so, in order to play you need to buy some credits or tokens etc. to play it. When I first know there were such free-to-play online games I got excited and the stranger that I've met at the cybercafe said those online games mostly are adventure type (which is my type of games), 3D fantasy and also you will be playing with a lot of people (which I was looking forward to).

Well, the next article, I will be reviewing about some online games that I have played so far and of course I need to reinstall all the games back to get some shots for the clips.
