Three topics in one, I know, but I'm only moderately proficient technically, and I barely got into being able to make one post, so here goes:
1) I did manage to access the forums, after registering. The problem is that I speak only a few words of spanish, so I 'guessed' my way in. If you click on accept and change to English (at the 'dark elves' screen) as I have done, I don't have the problem others do of the quests appearing in spanish, and the game runs fine. However, all of the forum headers, the EULA, everything else is in Spanish. It would be nice if you had a translation of topics, headers, etc, into English as well as the posts themselves, but it's not real hard to pick up quickly, and this is a minor quibble.
2) This game rocks. Period. My boyfriend and I have been trying to find an online game that we can both play and enjoy that doesn't bog down our computer, and this is it. I've started with a mage, and the tailorability, the graphics for our machine (the video card is a GeForce MX 4000 with only 384MB ram) being able to run it well, is just incredible. As I said, I have barely begun but I hope that the gameplot and play live up to the initial experience.
3) This is also a 'minor quibble' but is there a way to make the 'swivel' mouse-activated? I.E., to turn around, I have to use the arrow keys. Can the mouse be used to do this? Also, I originally downloaded this game in linux (MEPIS/Ubuntu), but every time I try to start the game, I enter my username and password and it reboots the machine.
I realize it's 'early' on, but I'd give this game a great rating, based on what I've seen so far, and whether in Linux or Windows, I hope to play it for quite a while. See you in the aether! :D
