Knight online is a completely free, full access (as in you don't have to get there "members" service to access certain areas). It is extremely good graphics with very good 3d camera for good screenshots.

It is EXTREMELY fun for a completely new user, as you are fighting weaker monsters and learning new combos/spells/buffs/heals etc.
As you get more advanced you may be spending 5 minutes killing one monster, as you need more xp as you advance levels.

For combat, you attack the monster and exchange blows. However some weapons are fast so you can attack twice while the monster only hits once and some weapons are slow so vice versa. You also have skills which you click on or press a corresponding number on your keyboard to use.
eg. you are a warrior fighting something, then you use the special ability slash, which gives you a 150% better chance of hitting with an attack, and also does an awesome slashing animation.

The graphics of fighting, especially with special moves, are incredible, as is the graphics of a rogue firing his bow or a mage casting a devestating fireball.

You can choose to be either orks or human, each one contains 4 races, and 4 classes. Each class has a number of skills to distribute skills to, to make you better at attack, defense, flame magic, ice magic, healing, buffing, ranging and knives
Classes (same for both ork and human)
Mage
Rogue (archer/knives)
Warrior
Priest (healer/buff)

Races
Humans (El Morad)
barbarian
El Moradian male
El Moradian Female
umm.... can't remember the other one.

Orks (Karus)
A big ork
A male ork
A female ork
a weird wizened orkish goblinish thing.

With Humans any race can be any class, however with orks:
the "big ork" can only be a warrior, the "male ork" can only be a rogue or priest, the "female ork" can only be a priest and the weird ork goblin thing can only be a mage.

There are wars between the two nations every week for higher levels, and a zone where it is constant war between the two.

ok, now for the pros, cons and rating

pros:
amazing graphics
free to download and play
excellent variety of skills
many different armour and weapons, each with unique look, pros and cons, price, and everything else.
many zones to explore, with seasons changing to fit the current seasons (i think of america)
clans and parties to increase experience gain and make friends

cons:
the quests are normally either: talk to this person or bring me this item, so no real challenge their
most of the players are turks, so you can't understand half the players in the game

rating:
8.5/10
(however if i could speak turkish 9/10)

all in all a great game, with the option of buying services for real money if you want to get the absolute most out of the game, or completely free and still get most of it.
