Not a complete game. The setting of the world is interesting, but the claims of the website that this game focuses on roleplay are completely ridiculed by the little amount of information that is given about the world. To properly roleplay your character, you have to do hours of questing in-game or read dozens of in-game books, because there is no information available on the Internet (it is officially considered "spoilers"). In a consequence, you are forced to run around the world for a long time not being able to roleplay because you don't know how the world works. The solution is either not to RP at all or to upset / disturb other players because you're being out of setting.

The game is not very interesting for grinding right now either. You can gain some stats, but battles are boring, enemy AI and battle animation is laughable, and there are no real dungeons or boss fights that require team planning. You can spend many hours leveling up your wide range of skills, but there is, in my opinion, no real feeling of advance yet. Nobody will call you a hero when you "maxed your stats", you won't get access to new areas or bosses (there is only one, rather small, unlockable area which is unlocked through quests alone).

The graphics of this game are insanely outdated. If you think "good, that means it runs faster", you're sadly not right. It runs pretty smoothly on a fairly modern PC, but the problem is, from the looks of it, it should run very smoothly on a fairly old PC. Enabling "shadows" (transparent circles under objects which sometimes drop through platforms) slows down the game considerably. I have to check my watch... nope, it's not 1996 any more. But problems don't stop there, there are numerous glitches and graphical bugs, some of them years old. Recently, the percentage of finished models for characters has raised considerably - not because new models were made, but because a few races have been removed from the game.

I recommend to wait for finished game.
