Gamigo managed to fix a few things for ArcheAge Unchained but broke a few others in the process. The troubled launch didn't do it any favors, with exasperating queues, but the added drama of the ArchePass exploit was something that could and should have been entirely avoided.

Archeage Unchained is Gamigo's try at creating a level playing field for everyone by removing the pay to win mechanics of the legacy version of the game. Unfortunately, exploiters and bad design of the ArchePass have already created an imbalance. While the game lacks any innovation (the original released in 2014), it does provide a full sandbox experience with elements that will appeal to both PVP and PVE players.

Niche GamerTyler ValleOct 20197/10
ArcheAge Unchained is a fun, bizarre, and honestly, pretty niche MMO that still holds up in all the most important ways. Now that it is no longer weighed down by scummy monetization, I would say that this is the time to give it a try.

ArcheAge Unchained is a thoroughly entertaining sandbox experience, but still needs a lot of work and polish before it can truly become something great.
