Life on the Silkroad

Random update

Been playing a lot of computer games lately since upgraded my com. Silkroad online is a MMORPG set in a mythical Chinese dynasty, but u can travel to India and the Middle East as well. Life starts out as most RPG games, whacking monsters to earn gold and items which can be bought and sold and traded with other players.

Along the way quests will be given to you by the NPC characters u meet along the way, and the 99% involve whacking monsters which is very tedious, and not really my fav kinda game. Upon reaching a certain level, players can start choosing to act as Traders, Hunters or Thieves. Traders load up goods from one city and travel a long distance to another city, to sell them for gold. Theives as u can probably guess, rob the traders while a hunters duty is to protect the traders. This system forms the core of gameplay in SRO (Silkroad Online).

It's not really my fav kinda game as i mentioned, but it's good caus my frens play it, n it's not that addictive so i can stop at anytime. Players in SRO are truly international coming from continents such as South america, australia, middle east , germany and other ulu ulu countries. which is a good and bad thing.

apart from SRO, i've been playing DotA daily, though not as hardcore as i was before. Think the skills of the 2nd generation dota players in my class have reached the same level as the 1st generation players le. i think games like DotA have the potential to become full cyber sports in future with teams and leagues.
