Yeah, back when I played it, it was still a bit bare bones. I think they need a PC specific UI, though. It's kind of weird using the same UI as the tablets to play on PC.

So does the game have permadeath (you lose all your skills), or you only lose the items you had on you (UO style)?
Also, I don't suppose there are invites available? Signed up a year ago and still no invite.

With all the early access crap going on recently; this is the only game I wish it has some sort of an early access offer.

The Founder's Packs are fucking ridiculous. Everyone asking $100 for the shit that's worth getting. Which is a shame, 'cuz this game actually looks like a decent time sink, that'll quickly be a $4.99 game on app stores a couple months after release...

Not sure how else to get alpha keys but PRX gets them pretty much carte blanche. When we played it last we all pretty much agreed it needed a lot of time, new features and a coherent and engaging combat system. Not sure how far they've come!
Plus ArcheAge is like a AAA mmo built with the same ideas as albion, just not with a hardcore ruleset and death penalty.

Just bought the $99 founders pack. One of my long time gamer friends said this game is good....if you like PvP with full loot style games. This will very much be like a moba but in a persistent world with the political aspects of a hardcore pvp game like darkfall. Juicy.
Precisely my worries. I have been following this game for a few years now and they originally expressed that they wouldn't make this game pay2win. However, there are grumbles that this attitude has completely changed. I'm disappointed as I had tons of hope in this game. I'll still sit and watch.
I think they're relying on human nature. There's always a group of guys in every MMO that just want to be dicks.
Usually the Russians.
Yeah, look at WoW PVP servers. You get almost nothing for ganking people in WOW, yet it still happens a lot. (at least on every server I was on).
Yeah, you don't really want to encourage people to be dicks. That will come out naturally in a MMO.Yeah, look at WoW PVP servers. You get almost nothing for ganking people in WOW, yet it still happens a lot. (at least on every server I was on).

I purchased this game thinking that I've done yet another mistake wasting my money on an MMORPG. I was pleasantly surprised that this game is GOOD. Really good.
For a change I don't have to follow a "story" or a series of "quests". I am not a Hero and the world doesn't revolve around me, that felt like I am in a world rather than a crappy lobby-based multiplayer game.
The sandbox side kept me spending my whole day not realizing that I didn't actually have my food. I love the simplicity of everything about it because simple combat, simple gathering, simple crafting is all what I need. I love how I went inside random dungeons exploring areas looking for resources and humanoids to kill for silver.
And this "alpha" feels more polished than many released MMORPGs which is a huge plus.
Well done!

This is good to hear. I was in earlier versions of the game and it was polished then. I do wish I was still in, but I don't like dropping money on early access.

To be honest this game feels more finished than many other finished games.
But it's true that your progress is going to be wiped and that sucks.
