This has the most potential of any game I've yet seen to be the spiritual successor to UO.

Unfortunately it looks and plays like ass.

Ha, hold your tongue.

For being 20 years old, UO looks and plays fine. I'm not granting any concessions to games being made today.

Fuck I'll try it. Wasn't playing MMOs when Ultima came out, so I'd be down for something like it.

Then I'd recommend playing a UO freeshard. I see LoA has been in alpha like 4 years now and for what they're showing it's not impressive.

Is this more fun to play than it is to watch? Spent maybe 10 minutes watching a stream and it looked pretty terrible.

Hopefully they spruce it up before release. I suspect they will since they're still in alpha.

At least there looks like more content then AO. But the graphics...

Some guy built his house over where I was logged off and it spawned me inside his house. For the past few months I've been logging in every now and then and looting everything that's not locked down.

So anyone playing this server? Because it's pretty fucking cool.

There's always a fine line between nostalgia and integrating new features that make the game less tedious. Looks like they're choosing to the ignore the latter. Meh.

This seems pretty fun so far, fan of the look and sound of it.

Anyone tried the ranger?
