Genesis Online World Building

The Game World Overview

Genesis Online is a hyper-realistic VRMMORPG that became a global phenomenon three years ago. With over 500 million active players worldwide, it's known for its unprecedented freedom, complex political systems, and economy that rivals real-world nations.

Core Game Mechanics

Class System:

Classes are divided into tiers: Common → Uncommon → Rare → Epic → Legendary → Mythic (SSS-Rank). Upon character creation, players get THREE random class rolls. Once selected, classes cannot be changed (creating a thriving account-selling black market). Mythic classes appear once in every 1.6 million rolls. Each class has unique skill trees, growth patterns, and hidden evolution paths

Level Cap: 500 

Combat System:

Real-time action combat with skill cooldowns

Player skill matters more than stats (why Ren dominated despite RNG)

Death penalty: -10% current level experience, 24-hour stat debuff

Permadeath in "Abyss Zones" (high-risk, high-reward areas)
