Why Cabal Sux

I have played many FREE mmorpg, but only short term relationship. some of them (knight, Requiem) have patching problem, and i ditched them in installation phase, some of them have lag problem (rappels, perfect world, silkroad), so only last for 1, 2 weeks before i look else where and some of them have bad graphics like regnum.

Recently i have a relationship with Cabal online. a considerably long relationship 1 month plus. so decided to write a review for it.

the advantage of Cabal online are:
1) feature complete, pet, weapon customization...
2) good network, not much lag
3) stable application, no patching problem
4) beautiful graphics, one of the best graphics, but silkroad is still better
5) shared inventory for all character in same account
6) fast leveling, avg 1 hour per level

it's disadvantages:
1) boring skills, most of skill have same effect, only some parameter are different
2) not much customization, if everybody spend same effort, they will get similar character! the game itself force u to do so, every 10 level there is a quest force you to set character's attribute to a reference attribute.
3) very restrictive gameplay, character can only wear armor of their class, carry weapon of thier class, really no rpg element here.

after 1+ month playing, i'm growing boring about it, i think soon i'll start lookig for a mmo.
