The Vernese Forest area in Lost Ark Gold can come as an unexpected surprise as you enter it. It is a maze-like map, interspersed with an aerial walkway that makes it difficult to navigate. And to make matters even more challenging, there are two triports, and very few vendors. In other words, this place is a lot of work.

The game launched only a week back, Lost Ark has shot to the top of Steam charts, having accumulated over 1 million players concurrently making it the most played game ever on Steam (based on the number of concurrents) of all time. The game was created through Smilegate RPG, Lost Ark is an Korean MMO which launched in 2018 , before being made available in English and then ported to the west in a partnership with Amazon Games. While it's only available within the US and Europe for a short period the game has over 100,000 viewers on Twitch right now and has outperformed games such as Dota 2, CS:GO, and PUBG by a record number of concurrent gamers on Steam.

So what the hell is an Lost Ark anyway I spent the last week looking into this new gaming sensation, eager to find out if it has what it takes to become my newest obsession or something I'm happy to let other players obsess over. Lost Ark is a free-to-play MMO which plays like Diablo. It's an isometric, action RPG that has all the hallmarks of an open-ended MMO such as wildly undressed female models, as well as a chat with a plethora of spam from gold farmers. Lost Ark is mindless fun and won't hold you accountable for not taking the game too seriously.

Lost Ark is getting two more rounds of the only weekend-only Fever Time event to close out July. The event will allow cheap Lost Ark Gold players to claim rewards once on Saturday and then on Sunday. This event is a part of the newly added bonus progressions that were added following June's Spells of Spades upgrade.
