Line 7:
Shortly after, a secret international anti-vampire unit called E.V.E was formed and sent to the field to fight all the vampires that were gathering in that area which became a new eden for them, a dark eden.
 
The gameplay is of the [[Hack and Slash|hack and slash]] type and used to be focused on aggressive [[PvP]] until the game [[Jumping the Shark|jumped the shark]] by making the best places to xp in the game race specific thus making very hard to find someone from another race to fight that is not inside one of them. Being an MMORPG originating from Korea you can expect loads and loads of levels (250) that are not reachable unless one dedicates maybe 10 years of one's life into hardcore [[Level Grinding|grinding]].
 
The three races contain several classes within. Vampires are made of a warrior class and a mage class. The Ousters are made of a warrior class wearing Chakrams and elemental classes based on [[Elemental Powers|fire, earth and water]]. Finally, the slayers are divided between bladers, sworders, gunners, healers and enchanters.
Line 20:
* [[Awesome but Impractical]] : Several of the slayer skills such as shine sword for sworders which requires an insane high to hit to work on a vampire player if no monster is around and then even if it works, no player would be stupid enough to keep standing on it.
* [[Big Bad]] : Gilles de Rais, Mikklizz, Onibla, Gusion/Morgoth to a certain extent. Bathory and Tepes were that at first before they quickly looked ridiculous in comparison to the overpowered players.
* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]] : Slayers. Unlike other races they can't glide or teleport, they can't see in darkness unless an enchanter is here, needs to always have a sufficient amount of resistance not to be paralyzed for 30 seconds, have cool skills that are completely useless for a good 70% of them (some even when you just learn them) or impractical due to their high failure rate. And finally they need to be in group with all the classes to really be efficient.
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]] : Tepez and All Registance to name a few.
* [[Boss Banter]] : Gilles de Rais is very fond of this, with a lengthy monologue as you proceed in his lair. According to the updates Tepes and Bathory sometimes do it as well or not at all. Several mini bosses in Tiffauges Castle 2F do this as well.
Line 33:
* [[Enemy Civil War]] : In story only. The followers of Bathory are in war with those of Tepes, too bad this doesn't translate in the actual gameplay.
* [[Everything Fades]] : All the corpses and items not picked after a certain time will disappear out of thin air.
* [[Everything's Better Withwith Spinning]] : Bladers' tornadoes attacks. When facing strong mobs and the spinning of the skill renders them unable to attack it indeed proves that everything is better with spinning.
* [[Evil Is Deathly Cold]] : Gilles de Rais' lair is located in the icy region of Lake Timore, a region he was the one to freeze over mind you. His magic is also based on ice.
* [[Evil Is Sexy]] : Bathory and female vampire after 150+ (and those with the previous look under 150).
Line 43:
* [[Fridge Logic]] : The game provides plenty examples, for instance one can wonder how come such an advanced military unit such as E.V.E can not provide some simple night vision helmets to their slayers so they could see in the damn darkness.
** How come the iddle animation of male vampires have them breathe... Are [[Our Vampires Are Different|our vampire that different?]]
* [[Fun Withwith Acronyms]] : E.V.E (Experts in Vampire Extermination), all the more noteworthy when the mother of the vampire is Lilith who is sealed in Adam's sanctuary.
* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]] : You can go kill all the famous vampire masters you want, fear not, they'll be back next hour or so.
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]] : Brazilians Love Darkeden. sHuhAuHAuaHUAhuaHaUAHUAa
Line 54:
* [[Hot Amazon]]: The Ousters.
* [[Inventory Management Puzzle]]
* [[Jumping the Shark]]: May vary according to people. Whether it is the increase of levels pushing the max level to 250 instead of 150 thus creating an unbalanced system they didn't foresee or the addition of the best xp places to be race specific thus killing the [[PvP]] aspect of the game except for very seldom times. Or that the game is turning into a giant [[Bribing Your Way to Victory|bribing your way to victory]].
* [[Leeroy Jenkins]]: Brazilian players are the biggest culprits of this. If you're planning for a tight strategy to beat a tough lair and you start hearing "br?" nearby, run, run far away or schedule the attack for another time.
* [[The Legions of Hell]]: All Tiffauges mobs are Dukes (or Duchess) of Hell except for the Valkyrja. Why only one of them is 10 times their size remains a mystery unless the others are just mini versions of the real Dukes. The fact that there are mini Gusion in 2F, albeit called Krsnik to avoid probable confusion, may hint at that.
