Luna Online
http://image.bydice.com/out.php/i361_Luna.Online3Custom.jpg
Luna Online isn't too new, I have to admit. However; it is new to our country! (unless you happen to be in an Asian country right now)
Luna Online has been out for Malaysian and Singapore regions, and they've finally decided it was epic enough to start their roots in the west!
So what is it exactly? Luna Online is advertised as a "Dating MMO". Other than that, the game display beautiful art work (very chibi and manga like) in a quick-paced combat system.
Let's review its features!

Dating MMO:
Like many mmo's advertise (others usually with marriage with a couple skill or some sort), Couples in Luna Online have access to special equipment and dungeons that only they may share the adventure in. It's exclusive to couples, what? The dungeons of course.
Experience it with your loved one, just you and her alone. And well... block the whispering messages coming through your chat box in a sing song voice : K I S S I N G

Farming MMO:
That's right. Farming game, Harvest moon style. You and your family will be able to grow crops and maintain a nice farm where you raise your own farm crew and crops! Watch for the opposing families! There can only be 40 farms per server, that means every other family will have to fight for land!

-Cutesy Graphics
This can be seen as an up or a down. Personally; this game had been a pleasant experience for me. The characters are extremely cute, it makes you want to squeeze them! On the other hand; it might be TOO cute.
The skills and effects are, to its extreme of course, very flashy. And with that said, that isn't a con whatsoever. The skills are beautiful from skill one and only get bigger and flashier! It'll bring a tear to your eye!

-Fast Paced Combat
For you Ragnarok Online lovers, this game will not disappoint you! The first time I played this game and got 20 levels through, advancing my class to the next; I thought to myself. This is what RO2 Should have been like!
The game features fast paced action, quick reactions are needed. From experience, this game is very team-based. The battles are quick and last seconds rather than minutes if there is no team play involved.

Clan System
In all honesty, the clan system should be included in the FARMING MMO section. The clan's are your families of this game. Once you join into a family, it becomes your last name and you engage in group dungeons and so forth together and eventually reach the ultimate goal of owning a farm and managing it.
Controls
The controls are very standard to its game play. Although; it does not have interchangeable keys, 1234567890 are your skill keys along with the various menu keys of your keyboard. This is a point and click game, which might seem boring to some... But the game play is just so smooth that you might even compensate for the fact that it really is a point and click.
Sound
The combat sounds are pretty great. Nice shining sounds and many ding ding for sword clashes :P The whole 9 yards of fighting. The music however... I hope you guys don't have 300$ headphones like me which can reach ridiculously high pitches >.> Those sounds were annoying after a while.
This is not my own review. It is from a games reviews site.
