Closed comic Chinese-fantasy MMORPG

Zentia

Zentia was a free-to-play, humorously comic-book-styled 3D fantasy MMORPG jointly produced by Chinese developer Pixel Soft and published in North America by ChangYou, set in a Chinese fairy-tale world after a war between three immortal brothers. Players chose one of over 20 pre-made immortal characters, tamed nearly half of the game's monsters as pets or multi-rider mounts (the largest carrying up to 10 players), crafted gear, and engaged in extensive PvP options including a unique jail system that let wronged players report and have warrants issued against attackers. The North American version officially closed at 11:59 PM PDT on August 13, 2012.
