the best thing YOU should do, is play it for yourself and decide if you wanna play it further or search another game. Noone can answer on this question, you should find out yourself.

Is it a good game, yes of course. However, if you do decide to play it, please remember that it is still beta and as a beta - still has bugs. Remember to grade on a curve

It's the best FREE MMORPG I've found yet. Anarchy Online is probably "better", but I don't like the future setting.

Just keep in mind that this IS beta. I figure when beta is overwith your characters will be deleted and you will have to start over. From what I have seen, this game is about like most mmo games and is a level grind. Seems there are only about 5 or so quests per town so there is not alot of quests to do at any particular level.

Graphic wise, its way down on the list. These graphics are around or just before everquest 1, so depending on what gaming rig you have, you should be able to play with the graphics on decent settings.

AO IS better in many ways. but to really enjoy that game you have to learn how to over implant your character. If you dont do that, then it can be pretty hard to level. It was designed to be more tech style and thats not going to please everyone.

I thought in the last comment from this company, that this game will remain free, and just use incentive purchases for money (like spend X for Y).

I played AO for Free too and after Totw there is nothing better to do than do mish if you dont have expansions

Lawie is completely right,

But either way, if you decide to go look for another game, I would recommend you come back in a couple of months or more because you might like it then. The game is constantly evolving as we are well aware of the current issues and we also have a huge list of improvements that are on-hold because of prioritization.

If it's any indication, the game has improved a LOT over the past few months, and Im just saying this based on player feedback.

Regards

hehe after reading my post again it almost made it sound like I was slamming this game. I want to make it clear that this game is good and i think many people will enjoy it. While the graphics are on the low side, they are still nice. I compare it to the original EQ, but i also think that EQ was by far the best game that has been out yet. So, it is a compliment in many ways. I think this game should do fairly well if they can get alot more quests into it so that it doesn't feel so much like a level grind.

Mikee187 · 11-20-2006, 12:19 AM

i agree with that....everquest is by far the best graphics out there...i know...i played it for 6 years lol...thanks for the info everyone...btw i started playing and i like it alot...got a 8 ranger

Yes, that is how the game will be

What niclam said about the game improving over the last few months is entirely true. I found this game the day after it hit MMORPG.com which was perhaps a month ago and even from that time the improvements have been great. I look forward to seeing what the finished product will be like

You guys who play(ed) AO ... were you there for beta? AO had the absolute WORST beta imaginable. Comparing the two by that standard RO wins hands down.
