We have started the development of Hero Online, in the year of 2002. At that time, the genre Martial Art Action MMORPG was not well known and nor was it popular, so many developers were looking for developing this type of game to attract the players who always seek for something new. With knowing this fact, we have tried to set a difference against other developers and the main stresses that we have put in order to differentiate our game from others are game storyline, pet system, skill system and warfare system and these assets of hero online gold has kept its uniqueness among many Martial Art Action MMORPG and generated a massive success in Korea.
MMOsite.com: Can you tell us how you came up with such a vast storyline?
Jack Stanley: The premise of the game is deeply interwoven with the storyline of the game, which can be found on our website. However, to put it simply, a long time ago, a group known as The Twelve Demons ravaged the lands in search of a rare and mystical treasure.
