SAO Integral Factor - MMORPG is also a title inspired by the very famous anime Sword Art Online. And as always, they have brilliantly executed it in the form of a game with all the anime elements captured perfectly. There are many Sword Art Online games on the digital markets, but this one is the newest and most fresh addition to the list where you will be playing as the protagonist. The best part is that in the game, there are many familiar situations similar to the anime, and players who have watched the series can relate a lot and experience it from your point of view.
The entire story is based on 'What if?'; hence you are in for a treat with backstories not seen in the anime series. So the game will have some stuff that you might not have seen before, which makes it even more mysterious. You have to battle through Aincard with Koharu and face life and death situations in the game.
The game is an MMORPG, a subgenre of RPG with massive multiplayer support. This means you will interact and face off against real players in battles. Sometimes RPG games can become too overwhelming for new players because there are so many in-game elements to attend to at once. So to progress in the game effectively you need to have a clear idea of what you have to do once you are in the game. This beginners guide will help players understand the game's basic elements and help point out some crucial information that will greatly affect the overall gameplay.
Sword Art Online is already a famous anime series; hence, players who have watched the show already know what the game is about. This doesn't mean newcomers will be left out. The developers have made an excellent intro to the game, which will give you insight into the actual storyline and the game's purpose. The main purpose of the game is to reach the 100th floor of Aincrad, and you will be a part of the assault team as you progress towards the goal. There is not just one assault team because it is a massively multiplayer game; hence other players will also form a group, and you can align with them to complete floors. This is a great feature offered by the game wherein you can collaborate with other players and progress quickly.
The story has no hidden secrets because most of it is just the game trying to tell you what you will be dealing with as you progress towards the 100th floor.
In almost every role-playing game, leveling up is the most important thing because it is directly dependent on your progression, increase in stats, etc. You have to choose characters to battle on a floor, and if your character is unable to cope with the difficulty level of the floor, you won't be able to win. This is where quests come into the picture because when you complete quests, you receive exp points which is the main ingredient in leveling up and boosting your stats.
But you can use a small trick to progress quickly on floors. As you play the initial quests, you receive experience points. Once completed, come back to the same floor and keep repeating it. This will help you to become very powerful right from the start. Players can do this right at the start, and in later stages, you can outperform the level of your floor, ultimately leading to quick progression.
It is not just enough to level up your character in games like these. You will also have to upgrade the elements present along with the character, such as weapons, outfits, etc. If you keep using default weapons with your powerful characters, it will make your character weak. Upgrading your weapons will ensure your attack is at its prime, dealing a lot of damage.
Enhancement is the key to winning battles. Upgrade your weapons and equipment so that you can give your 100% in battles, and winning will become a piece of cake. Apart from upgrading your gear and weapons, you also need to enhance your character's skills. Without powerful skill and abilities, it will become very difficult to kill monsters on floors that are either overly powerful or need special attacks to be defeated. And of course, you need to gather materials and resources for these upgrades to happen, which can be earned by playing quests. Rewards are the main thing in the game that will include in-game currency and resources necessary for upgrades and enhancements.
With a guide at your disposal, you have all the necessary knowledge to gain a head start at the beginning as you enter the game for the first time. Remember, quests are the most important thing that will provide you with resources and help you level up. With this said, you are now prepared to enter the 1st floor, and we hope you prevail and progress in the game efficiently.
So go on and make sure you reach the 100th floor and claim your superiority over others.
