Marketing tricks with the common
"Game of the Year, #1 Game of 200X, First ever!, 10 years of...!"
That's about where the similarities seem to end though. Aika is an MMO of South Korean descent and definitely has the look and sound effects. The MMO will also be free to play (just how free, we don't know yet), boast sophisticated voice-overs, and come packaged in a tiny 300MB download. And then there's the interesting (some might say creepy) "Pran system." Prans are kind of like pets from traditional MMOs, except that they are young girls. According to one review, you can interact with your Pran, dress it up, give it dolls, help it grow, and boost its intimacy/relationship rank.
The reviews and comments on this game are just hilarious though.
Amazing how games are getting more and more crappier the more companies you have with the aim of stealing customers from other games.
