Well, I made a tribe named 'Bay Twelve' sans the quotes, so post your char name here and I'll invite you.

[Gara-nis]

*yawn*

[x2yzh9]

I meant to say tribe, not game. I stayed up a little late last night

[SeaBee]

Sounds AWESOME.
Wurm + A Tale in the Desert?
That's almost what I'm looking for. (I was hoping for something like this, but more sci-fi/technological)

Anyway, I'm just trying to discover if it's gonna be P2P or "Buy Once"...
I don't like P2P games, and with skill decays it's completely dumb.

Someone said about leaving Wurm for a month.
I did it with a free account, so you can guess what I had when I came back...and I was considering to P2P.
But with decays? No way.


If it's "Buy Once" way of life, I'm totally getting this. Maybe even next week.

4.) Is Xsyon free to play?
No. There will be an initial fee of $40 and a subscription fee of $15 after the first month.

I'll pass..

My thought process went exactly like this. I was very interested right up until "subscription fee of $15."

[x2yzh9]

Well, that's standard fair for MMOs.

That is how it is designed Tilla. They want people to rely on each other and encourage working together in tribes. Each character can only do a couple of things  and every account is limited to one character. It's all part of the design. As for craft recipes you get new ones randomly while creating or failing at creating crafts.

Oh man, this is such a turn off for me, I actually like the idea of skill degredation, and one character per player and all the other design choices in this game, but limiting you to the skills you choose at character creation sounds so unfun. It's a shame because every other aspect of the game (save the ridiculous price of course) seems like exactly what I've been looking for.

[x2yzh9]

True, it is-But if we all group together, I think the skills will complement eachother nicely. I think the deal is in exchange for no grind, you can only have one craft skill.

[fenrif]

There's no grind? How do they manage that?

Correction:there is grind but not in the traditional sense. The quality of the items improve as you gain skill-you can make everything off the bat

So, the prelude early access has become but due to unforeseen sudden spike in interest (I've heard three times as many people bought the game in the last month as have overall before!!) the servers are bogged down to the point of spazzing out. New servers were already ordered though, and just need to be setup with the new redundant saving and backup code to prevent some problems they encountered under new load. The dev gave everyone 2 extra free weeks as compensation anyway so it should be cool when the real final wipe happens.

I've joined up with a peaceful crafter tribe with a whole bunch of members called the Hopi, and I'll be working as a fisher and a tailor for now. Looking forward to it.

[Farseer]

I'd join up, but I don't think I'm going to spend that much money on a game that's an unknown quantity. :p

[Megaman]

I thought I might buy it, but then I realized it's never as good as you think originally.

[Rilder]

* yamo suffers a sudden pang of loss for FTO.... 

Faery Tale Online? Yeah I miss it to.

I was a Dragon too, at the end (after they killed off Fenrod.)

[Farseer]

So, I've heard all there is to do is make baskets and tents and kill other players.

Is that true? :p

EDIT: Lead developer is apparently the lead developer of Roma Victor. No thanks.
