A much more easy to obtain feature is a Guild. While costly (in-game gold) it can prove worth it. The ability to create a guild comes around level 20 and it costs quite a bit of gold. But you get to create a group that you build up and fight against other Guilds or complete quests together with. Just another fun feature that allows you connect with the other players of PW. Take on the task of managing your own Guild and watch it grow in members, strength, renown, and level.
Cuddling & Marriage
What is a Perfect World without that perfect someone? Much to my own surprise, you can get married in this game. You can hunt down that virtual "love of your life" and bond with them while playing through each quest and advancing further. The ability to "Hoist Cuddle" and make the action intimate adds a new feel to an mmorpg. But the best part is being able to hold a wedding, invite guests, dress up, and marry that special gamer. Whether taken seriously or not by the spouses is up to them.
Graphics
Superb. I'm a picky person, tried a couple mmorpgs and quit after a few minutes because I didn't like the feel of the environment. But Perfect World is a beautifully designed game with a massive map, complete with forests, lakes, rivers, mountains, cities, villages, open land, and blue skies. The details are great, and the architecture in the cities and buildings are absolutely brilliant. Buildings are proportionate to the characters and the surroundings. A neat little element to the game is that day will turn into the night and you can watch the sun rise and set. Depending on where you are, you may find a rainbow somewhere. Looking at each character around you and your own character you can see the details in their armor, fashionable clothing, faces, and weapons.
Quests
While I've hardly begun to experience all the Quests I find them to be to my liking. A multitude of them require some grind, killing so many of a certain monster. I've had up to killing 30 of one mob so far. But there are so many other Quests types and storylines to go with each one it keeps it lively. One of the first Winged Elf quests required flying to a chest and beating the clock while at it. Others are leisure Quests, simply go and greet certain people, deliver a message, gather herbs or iron, or learn a new Production Skill. The Quests vary and sometimes go on for multiple parts. Some are difficult and very rewarding, others can be completed with little thought. The combat proves to be rather fun, especially when in a party, and completing grind quests becomes a bit easier with extra help.
Other
Perfect World has a lot of unique elements to it. But it also has simple yet great features that are seen in most mmorpgs. A wide variety of weapons, armor, jewelry, and pets. Steeds and mounts can be obtained or purchased. There are unique skills and magic abilities for each class. Tons upon tons of Quests. The map is absolutely massive. This game has just about everything you could want in it. But what more I can say? Try it for yourself.

I'm not totally bashing it, however : the character customization is absolutely wonderful indeed and it's a real pleasure to work on face like an artist working on a new creation.
Beautiful, yes; fun for some time, yes; perfect, no.
