Recently we have seen loads of advertisement from Xun Xian, a free Chinese MMORPG published by tencent.  Today we have got a chance to log into the new game, Seeking Gods Online (Xun Xian).

A lot of Chinese cartoon elements can be found in this game. You will find a wonderland that you dreamed of when you were very young. You can find these NPCs are very familiar due to the fact that you watched these animations at your youth stage.

It’s very easy to begin with. Just a few talks will take you out from the newbie village.

We picked up a very ugly uncle as our character. The funny part is the emotion part. Move your mouse on the following pictures and take a look at the following picture:

The game has a semi-GPS system. Maybe due to the factor that 3D game is hard to make a GPS system like in 2D games. But as you can see, the designer has already made the directions for you so that it’s really hard for you to miss a certain place or a NPC.

We will explore more about this game in the coming weekends. If you are willing to explore yourself, you can visit their official website: http://xx.qq.com.

Seeking Gods Online is the latest free 3D MMORPG produced by Pixel Soft, published by Tencent.com, the largest Instant Messenger (QQ) software company in mainland China. The game was based on Chinese mythology, fairies and well-known animations to a lot of people who were born during 1970s-1990s. You can find a lot of familiar cartoon heroes in this game, such as Huluwa (Bottle Gourd Baby), Tudi (Earth God), Na Zha, Hulijing (Fox Devil) etc.

Every MMORPG has a story, so does Seeking Gods Online. The story originates from a very old book called Chinese Bestiary (The Mountain and Sea Bible). Gods created everything for the world, and if you are one of those who are qualified to be a god, then you will be trained, tested and finally picked to become a God. The game is based on this base line and what you are going to do is to try to become a god in this game.

There are 8 types of Basic Gods in total (San xian, which means half human, half god) you can start with, they are: Vajrapani, Rasetsu, Paladin – the swordsman, Miracle Fighter, Fire Taoist, Blizzard Toiast, Cursed Witcher and Hellgate Wizard.

Sounds cool eh? That’s fmmorpg.com’s translation… lol. Actually that means 8 classes in game, just like classes in other games, you can become warrior, assassin, wizard, priest, archer, paladin etc.

Let’s take a look at the pet system. There are two types of pets in the game, one is called mount, and another is called “Guide Dog”, which will help you to find directions (Well, it’s function is just like GPS system in other MMORPG). You can get your pets or mounts from quests. If you want a better one, you need to learn the “Capture Devil” skill to capture better pets. Different pets have different skills and you should pick the right one for your own class. Don’t forget to feed your pets; they will become hungry if you treat them bad.

In traditional Chinese mythology, each god has at least 1 magic weapon and these weapons are called Fabao. In Seeking Gods Online, each player can have a magic weapon as well. By holding this magic weapon, you can cast very special and powerful skills differentiated from normal skills. Normally these magic weapons are well-known: bells, bottle gourd, mirror, scroll, pataka umbrella etc. So Fabao/Magic Weapons are also a very important and fun part of this game. We will explore more about this and introduce this system to you later.

You can easily transform your character into different pets/items in game. Take a look at these screenshots.

As to other systems such as living skills, dungeons etc., we will introduce them to you next time. We hope we can get extra accounts from tencent. If anyone who works for tencent.com happens to find this article, please send us more beta keys please.
