I just finished watching the Fly Through Video and I am completely blown away by three things:
* The beautiful music soundtrack of cello, etc...
* The majesty of the settings
* The different mood that each scene portrays!
I need to check out th…
Well, she is a beautiful woman and a rocker and very charismatic, this Fiona Horne -- and I think I would watch it for her alone; otherwise, I think these ALT cats are pretty legit. The vampyre follows the Long Black Veil and I know for sure that t…
EA and OSI must have done a lot of market research and polling and realized that most folks don't like the inconvenient things. They have rid us of a lot of the arcane (and boring) aspects of most MMOs and certainly loads of the things that made ne…
How does this Death System compare to and differ from other MMOs? It seems to me that this is pretty normal, although I like the playful use of the term Death Penalty here. Can you "insure" your inventory and gear like in UO?
Thanks. There is so much different here in UXO. It doesn't seem to me to be Yet Another MMORPG. I mean, this is the kind of game for someone who wants to be a hero or a Questing Knight or part of a real D&D-type campaign wherein the good-neut…
Well, the best news about Ultima X: Odyssey is that its starting from ground Zero. That is what made so many people really excited about getting involved in Horizons -- because you got to begin something! Funny this is that if you go onto eBay rig…
Shadowbane looks pretty Ugly! Besides, its neither UO nor is it the point! What we're trying to do is return to pre-trammel (is that right?) and we also want to assure that UXO will not be a game made by Nerf, because people don't want a spoon-fed…
Well, I don't think of what I know about UXO as being PvE per se -- not like Horizons is! I mean, it really could end up being a lot like West Side Story or like like Oakland, California: The Jets v the Sharks or the Bloods v the Crips. You can ta…
Cerberus was a vicious beast that guarded the entrance to Hades and kept the living from entering the world of the dead. According to Apollodorus, Cerberus was a strange mixture of creatures: he had three heads of wild dogs, a dragon or serpent for …
Is what I am hearing from you more to the effect that you want sort of an immersion game, where you feel like you're out in a forest and hunting down cerberi? If that's what you're looking for, I don't know who can really give it to you? Can Horiz…
I wonder if we can start a petition?! I am sure its been done before, but since everybody wants it!? It could be like an "Escape from New York" kind of vibe -- lawless and insane! Likt the Old West!
When I played D&D we all had action figures! We had lead hand-painted figures that we made -- and customised -- to look like our role-playing character.
Also, I just joined UO and I am having so much fun! Only thing is I really have not play…
I believe that this "superhero" cartoonishness is not only intentional, but I did a little Googling and found the following on the UXO preview here:
"Characters have a very "cartoonish" feel and I found it refreshing and new. You will see the deve…
I am so impressed by the graphics. And if I had not been getting Calandryll's missives about the real meat of the game -- which is assuredly based on gameplay and role playing -- I would think that its all about being eye candy! All eye candy. It…
