The MMO industry is coming to its peak with games like WoW which have millions of registered users. But games like these will soon belong to the past. Already this month a new breed of MMO will be released, I give you Dark and Light and its prequel which will come out this month Settlers of Ganareth.
SoG will be completly free until Dark and Light is released, which will be in April 2006.
There will be only one map in this game, but this map will be massive, bigger then anything in WoW or any other game for that matter. The map size will be 15.000 Square miles not including sees. This will be in the final game and SoG will start off with 1/8 of that size.
Now what differs SoG from other games? The answer is so many things that I cannot list them all up.
You can build fortresses and even towns, defend them, hire defenders, hunt mosters, mount dragons, attack enemy fortresses and there is so much more.
The game features a unique religion system, which can acctually be used in combat.
You can even go through the entire game without fighting a single mob since there is also social xp.
The entire game focuses on the dark and light battles and on a common enemy to both forces.
I won't say more now, since there is just to much. Check it out yourself:
Join me and many others in this new breed of MMO.
