This is a new Korean game in open beta. Usually people don't much like those, but I'm posting it for a couple reasons.
1. This game is almost entirely in English. I don't know where they found the person to write it, but the English is good. Other than a couple error messages and Korean players chatting all the item text, tutorials, options, etc are in English.

2. You don't need a Korean ID to sign up for it.

3. You don't need to use IE other than for account creation. The game launches from the start menu.

4. The game is kind of fun, and its free. I've provided my blog in the links above. They will walk you through the very easy steps of making an account on the website in Korean, but once you're set-up the rest is in English. The group test runs from 4 pm to midnight until October 25th. This is Korean standard time. Which is +9. This means it runs from 3 am EST to around 11 am, or 7 am GMT to around 3 pm. Kind of crappy time zone for some of you, but I know half of you are probably up all night anyway Wink

The game is a kind of mix of Dungeon Siege/Diablo light with a bit of an RTS element thrown in where you can summon many units and control them at once to attack. It isn't as deep as dungeon siege or diablo, but there is a kind of crafting system and the 2 character system (fighter and aide) is rather interesting.

I guess maybe it is. I never played DoTa ^^ it seems to be a little more complicated with the addition of the crafting, the ability to summon units and the fact that you don't buy inventory yourself you have to manually control the aide who runs around and buys it for you. There is also a territory battle. The main map has around 30 or 40 provinces that can be fought over and controlled for bonuses (only 3 seem to be open for the test).

Well I'm not a DotA guy but it certainly sounds like DotA. You have a guide on signing up? I'm sure my friends are going to love it since DotA and any thing DotAish is all they play. Much to my displeasure. lol Gustave the Steel

Yes, the sign-up guide is in the first post I made about TK online, here is a direct link: http://jeonsa.blogspot.com/2009/10/tk-online-group-test.html I never was interested in DotA, but the game seems passable. If anyone has any trouble signing up they can post here or on my blog and I'll do what I can to straighten it out. after sign-up, the download link is here: http://tkonline.co.kr/data/data_download.asp
