It was supposed to be an Ultima Online style MMO but they quickly went another direction. The game is nearly impossible to get into, heavy grind, not worth it. I'm actually pissed I paid for the game only to be let down like this.2 found this helpful
Backed it, spent literally thousands of dollars, got reamed by a greedy scammer (garriott) who took the money and ran. Very much would not recommend.1 found this helpful
Why does this game have choppy 2003 graphics if it was released in 2018? If the graphics are from 2003 that isn't a deal-breaker but if they are that outdated it could at least run smooth...1 found this helpful
