Comparing newschool and oldschool Metin2
If you are looking for a Metin2 newschool server, first identify what you want to change from the familiar game. You may be looking for different progression, additional content or a different focus. The label alone does not settle those questions.
Turn the style into specific questions
Check the level cap, equipment journey, available activities and the systems you would use each day. Ask how much preparation is involved before the content that interests you. Two servers using the same style label can still offer experiences that suit quite different players.
Understand Shiva's oldschool direction
Shiva is oldschool-oriented, with progression to level 99 and familiar activities including Metin farming, dungeons and the Biologist. Offline shops support player trading, while realm and guild PvP provide competition. Use those features to decide whether its direction matches what you are looking for.
Choose the experience you want to keep playing
Consider your usual session length and whether you most enjoy farming, preparing a character or competing with other players. Read current news, the server rules and optional shop offers before joining. If your main interest is a particular new system, confirm it in the server's own documentation.
