What makes Argentum II different from other MMORPGs?[]
We don't want a game in which player characters are immortal pets. In Argentum 2 most player characters will be constantly in danger, if you find this too much intimidating please close the web browser and get back to "The Sims". We want a medieval warfare game, where all characters could be assessinated and robbed.
On the other hand, AO2 will be a fast paced game in which the success in combat will not be determined but by character's stats. In combat, it will be more important how skillful you are in commanding your character than the character itself.
Argentum 2 has support for many languages, including Spanish, English, French, Català and Esperanto. So you will be able to experience AO2 in your own language.
