ZAM's Review of War of the Immortals

Ah, Perfect World Entertainment (PWE). I have a love/hate relationship with the US subsidiary of the Chinese Perfect World company. This will be the fifth game I’ve played from them (others are Ether Saga Odyssey (ESO), Forsaken World (FW), Rusty Hearts, and Champions Online), and it falls into the same genre as ESO and FW. Players take the role of a character attempting to revive Odin and save the world, and we find a lot of the same mechanics present in other PWE games with some uniqueness as well. If we’ve held your attention so far, read on for our review!

War of Immortals highlights the Enchantress class

Do you like to sing? Do you like to dance? Do your friends not dance? Well, if they don't dance, they're no friends of mine.

Great opening lines aside, War of the Immortals has a new class trailer out to highlight their Enchantress, a beautiful and graceful addition to WoI that supports her friends with songs and harpsichord-y music, or debuffs her foes with angry litanies of destruction. Think a Bard here, but far prettier and a little less annoying.
