Cabal Online is a free-to-play, 3D MASSIVE MULTIPLAYER ONLINE ROLE-PLAYING GAME developed by South Korean company ESTsoft. Different localizations of the game exist for various countries and regions.
2005; It was this year that the game called CABAL ONLINE was released, that time we were still having a hard time leveling up and doing quests doesn't give much experience that's why, what my friends and I was doing were hunting all monsters that we see, although the players were numerous, we have troubles hunting monsters with basic items that have no enhancements. Me and my friends form parties just to slay a low-level field boss which is 5 levels below us, and try to distribute the meager items that we receive.
2018; after playing the game for 13 years some of my friends already stopped playing the game, since almost all of them already have a family or a stable job. Overtime the game became easy to play and there has been not much of a thrill in playing the game like when it was released. There are a lot of cheaters that have been playing the game, taking advantage of the players that have been honestly playing. This situation have been going on for years but the game developers just can't get rid of the cheaters that have been destroying the game, since then the honest players started leaving the game and some of them even became a cheater. Although the cheaters have advantage in the game, they were still small fries compared to my character but I can still be beaten to the ground if someone from the old generation was using a cheat. Since I have been with the game since it was created, I have amassed a lot of unique items and powerful sets of equipment which were some of them was from my friends, and since they left the game, they gave me the items that they painstakingly fought for years for a 50% discounted price so that they can buy a milk for their babies.
2020 after 2 years the Game Developers of the game started a major sweep in the game and banned all of the cheaters that have been playing the game. I don't know how but the game became lively again with the players getting back to the game again. It already became a lot of fun to play the game again, although for me it was just a bit fun since I've already maxed the level of my 6 characters that I have created. I even created a new account on which I have 2 additional characters which achieved the max level.
2024 there are a lot of virtual dive games that have been released but I still play the game that I love the most, although this game is still the old fashioned PC game I still enjoy playing the game although all I do is amassing a lot of ALZ which is the currency inside the game, I even got a title [LIMITLESS] after I gained a total of 1,000,000,000,000,000 alz inside my inventory. Although the title itself doesn't give any stats in my character I still love wearing it since this title has been gained through my years of playing. Although sometimes I sell some ALZ in order to gain a bit of money through players that still play the game for fun. I already treat the game as a means of gaining money.
2025 ESTsoft went bankrupt for some reason and decided to sell game to a company that manages a VRMMORPG but they refused to buy the game so ESTsoft don't have any choice but to end the game in MAY 15, 2025, at first when I heared the announcement inside the game, I became enraged and sent a lot of complains to the company and was surprised to see that they replied to all of my emails tried to apologies to me, they even tried to arrange a meeting with me, they said that they have been monitoring all of my activities since 2018 and they were very thankful for me playing the game since they created it until the present year, they said that the reason why they were going to close the game was because there is only a handful of players still playing the game and even though they were doing their best to support the game's server, by trying to merge the servers into one and created the server named PANGAEA. After all of the things that we discussed, even though I still don't want to stop playing the game, I don't have much of a choice. I just told them that I will just play the game until they shut down their servers.
May 14,2025 11:30pm. I was playing the game, well not actually playing it. I'm just slaughtering all of the mobs that I encounter in the game. Although in the early phase of the game, the spawn time of these mobs were just 1-2minutes, today the spawn time of these mobs were change to 1-2hours so every single map that I teleported to was devoid of mobs. I then went to the highest available map of the game which is after the map of SENILLINEA, the VOID. I entered the map and slaughtered all of the normal mobs and went to the strongest field boss of the game The World Devourer, The World Devourer is a legendary beast that is so big and so fearsome that it can eat gods and stars. It is foretold that at the end of ages, the World Devourer will swallow the sun and the gods, and His age will begin.
Although this field boss looks fearsome as hell, it was a docile one. It won't attack players until you provoke it yourself. The reason for this was the game developers made him a neutral faction because there is a dungeon behind him, If the field boss was a hostile one. As soon as players come near the dungeon, they won't even take a step inside it before they'll get pummelled back to the town's respawn point and receive a death penalty which decreases a percentage of your EXP and reduces your HP and MP.
I observed him for a while and went near him and didn't expect for the final boss to turn hostile.
"Well, I, Jackson went here to kill you so this just speeds up the process."
