Asheron's Call 2
It is a sequel to 1999 's Asheron's Call , although content, graphics and gameplay dynamics differ greatly from its predecessor. AC2 is generally considered the first "second-generation" MMORPG, and its graphics continue to be among the best in the gnre . Many tedious aspects of first-generation MMORPGs were eliminated while maintaining complex gameplay and combat systems based on a hybrid class-skill system. Most current players agree that the game has significantly improved over time. Included in these improvements are a new crafting system aptly named Craft 2.0 which has greatly changed the in-game economy for the better. Also the level cap has been raised to a new 150 max, which since the introduction of the Hero system, which allows a character to pass level 50, has not been reached. As of this article the highest level character on the US servers was 75 which has taken 1 year to reach since the Hero system was put in.
