Divine Souls News & Events & Guides
Divine Souls is Outspark's 3D Action MMO. The game is set in a world where Divine Matter was discovered and used to help humanity surpassed their limitations. However, with great power comes great responsibility, and according to the game's story, the discovery unhinged the balance of nature. However the great nations in Divine Souls have decided to withhold final judgement on the substance despite the obvious warnings. This changes when the chief scientist responsible for discovering Divine Matter goes missing, his lab ransacked. Now the time has come for the government to act before a greater calamity occurs.
The agents that are sent by the government and interested parties represent the character job classes you will have to choose from. You have the staple general concept of melee, swordsman, magic and healer classes. These classes are mostly by the book MMORPG standard classes, however, the one thing that really jumped at me is the Priests, or the healer class.
Divine Souls Gold does away with the Priest stereotype and presents you with a soul scythe wielding, monster flinging, slayer. Yes that's right- Remember the game is an action MMO, so it wouldn't be right if you see a bible totting priest hitting everybody with the sacred tome of Christianity (cause that's just wrong).
Divine Soul's gameplay is set for fast-paced keyboard breaking action. The gameplay is highly streamlined to make players maximize the full "action" potential. The game is highly skill based with the emphasis of keying in the correct button sequence for combos to deal out maximum damage. You don't play around with stat points in Divine Souls because everything is reliant on your job class choice, and the equipments your character has. Also the classes are gender locked, limiting your customization a bit.
The Divine Souls Gold is also notable for allowing players to use controllers, especially for those who are more accustomed to playing games like this with a gamepad.
The World Hub is set up in a pretty standard MMORPG fashion. An overworld exists in which you can interact and trade with other players. While major dungeons are instanced and set up for you to tackle by yourself or with a small group of friends.
