Wow. That guy makes Liberace look conservative.

Open beta ish soon Im looking forward to it!
In the meen time im playing shaiya thats a good game to. xD

Can't wait, this game looks great. Signed up for closed beta but didn't get in D:

the dual class system is interesting
the only other game after DoMO that I've seen do it so far :D
I might look into it
its pretty too~

mages ftw
and then I guess secondary class will be priest

or a magic rogue/scout may be interesting~

ooo~~~ i wonder if it'll be efficient to be an attack cleric...

and YES~ houses~~ w00t! and the possibility of being a loner in my house and never come out!!! :cutielove:

HD looks like ownage~ not sure if ill like it, but oh well ill give it a shot XD

I cant find the system reqs. for the game
need to make sure my computer wont die from it~

IT doesnt look overly great, I think youll be able to run it if u can run fiesta :P
well fiesta with no lag.

Open beta started today ^_^

wootwoot :D
got it installed and going ingame

everybody to artemis :D
artemis is cool :D goddess of the hunt~

LOL yeah I'm going to try it out a little later
along with dareboy and a few other fiesta friends ^^ which server did u go on? ( srry dont know any of the names yet )

Were planning on going in the pve one though since not everyone playing with us is a fan of pvp :P

had to redownload it which is taking forever...
apparently I had the CB launcher :cries:

the servers:
# US (PvE) Artemis
# US (PvE) Govinda
# US (PvE) Osha

# US (PvP) Grimdal

I'm going with artemis cuz thats a cool goddess :D
godvinda means yakherder
and osha is some sort of herb

Whoa. If you're downloading the client, shop around. I just found one of the sites that isn't throttling bandwidth.

Yeah all the different hosting sites are messed, and on gamershell all servers are like full. But hey what can you expect its open beta release day :P

The welton.de site is the one to hit right now.

Edit: Is everyone else as underwhelmed with this as I am? I wonder if an edit bumps a thread.

Wow this was definatly worth the wait. None of the good names were taken either xD! Got to use my real life name hahah.

How's the game?

I give it a resounding "meh." Fairly standard fantasy setting (yeah, I care about a game's story), character design doesn't do much for me (although it does have a fair amount of customization). The house feature is nice. The basic house is free to all users. Storage doesn't seem to be a problem (60 slots on you, 20 in your house, quite a few in the bank).

Gathering/crafting seems rather standard. Three types of gathering (wood, plants, metals). You gather the raw materials, then you find the appropriate area/NPC to refine them (you can also get these for your house). Once you've refined the materials, you use them in various crafting. Carpentry, Armor, Blacksmith, Potions, Food, etc.

The only really interesting thing about it I've found it the dual class aspect. If you've played DOMO, it's similiar, except you can only pick a primary and secondary. Some of your skills are usable when you're in the other "mode." It does make some specilization possible, like a Knight/Warrior or all-around perhaps, like a Cleric/Mage. You can change back and forth from the two classes at your house. Since you only level your active one, I'm pretty sure it sort of treats it like two different characters with armors and such. I'm not entirely sure though, as I haven't hit level 10 and made the choice.

Maybe it gets more interesting in the later game, but as of right now it certainly doesn't have much going for it, at least on the PvE servers. The PvP server seems to have elaborate rules for the PvP rankings, so it may be geared to a PvP experience.

Anyone else have a final say on the game?

Eh it was good at first, but honestly just as Hrae said it seems very repetative. Really not that special.
