Official description of the game
Mortal Online game is the next step in the development of the genre, the developers will provide a whole new level of gameplay and graphics. This is an open realistic world. Battles are fought in real time. Your personal skills will have a huge impact on success in battles. In Mortal Online, you can build your own house, found a guild, and even become the ruler of an entire nation.
The character can be chosen from a whole range of races and professions. You yourself determine the style of behavior and the strategy of character development. It is allowed to master not only combat skills, but also various crafts, magic and trade. Judging by the description, it turns out such Oblivion online. The idea is good, it remains to look at the implementation.
Overview: Playability
Yes, the developers have already completely snickered and want to pump out money from almost everything that comes to hand. Mortal Online was no exception. The idea was really good, but the execution is shocking....
The game world, frankly speaking, lagged behind the progress of 7-8 years that way. Of course it's open and all, but its simplicity is just depressing..... There are four races to choose from in the game, and each supposedly has its own unique abilities. But at the start of the game for any selected character, we get the same load - an ax and a gray rag for the body. The variety is simply amazing.
No maps for you, no signs for you on what to do and where to go. You rely only on your intuition. Plus, believing in death, you turn into some kind of spirit and generally cease to have an idea of what to do next ....
In general, it is difficult to say who will enjoy playing Mortal Online, and those who have tried the beta are unlikely to want to play the full version, which is also paid.
Review: Game Graphics
Here it is our almighty unreal engine 3- praise and honor to him. How many games he had to endure on his fragile shoulders. But in Mortal Online, he was more than mocked. You are unlikely to see a more miserable picture based on it ...
The characters, environments, terrain are all squalid, so if you want to see the worst use of it in the gaming industry, then Mortal Online is the best example.
So, having polished the engine poorly, they put the game into testing and, in our opinion, the graphics are unlikely to improve at the time of release.
Review: Game resource intensive
For Mortal Online, you will need not so much - a Core 2 Duo 2.33 GHz or Athlon 64 x2 5600 processor and 2 gigabytes of RAM .

All video cards were tested at the maximum graphics quality by the Fraps program in the most resource-intensive part of the game . The tests were carried out on city streets. Outside the city, the average FPS will be much higher, but we are interested in exactly those gaming places where the load on video cards is maximum.
Our video cards are tested in general at all resolutions and you can evaluate how your video card behaves relative to other modern solutions in almost all gaming resolutions. All video cards were tested at the maximum quality of graphics settings.
Testing at maximum quality settings 1024x768
Testing at maximum quality settings 1280x1024
Testing at maximum quality settings 1680x1050
Testing at maximum quality settings 1920x1080
We have not seen such unoptimized for a long time. Only modern middle peasants can allow you to play without brakes. And that's at low resolutions. And for high resolutions, sometimes modern expensive solutions will not be enough ... Nvidia video cards dominate, but it doesn’t turn out to be a plus for the “green” ones, since this game does not fit into modern gaming standards ...
Conclusion: Mortal Online is something you just don't want to play. You can walk past without looking back. And the exorbitant load on the video system will generally make you close your eyes to this miracle of the gaming industry.
