I have to say I did enjoy this game for a couple weeks. I was bored last summer and needed a game to play. I will say as soon as I get a job I will be playing WoW. I un-installed this game a long time ago but would like to write this review as a tribute to its originality and the fun I did have.


Gameplay- There is a lot to do and a lot to see in this game. The world is very big and since there is no large world map you really feel immersed into the world. The environments are nice and its fun to just go exploring. People in the towns are usually nice and will help you out. There are a ton of items to make and trade to keep your man equipped with only the best that this fantasy world seems to offer. I really got a good feeling from the game and I dont know why. But you will see over time unless you are REALLY into the game that you will get bored eventually and want to stop playing. And your computer must be good to run this even though the minimum requirements are low. The zones take awhile to load unless you disable the zone caching.

Sound- I give the sound a 9 because for some reason this game didnt have to go all out with the sound or music to make it have a good effect on you. THe sublte sound effect are ok and the music I think suits it. I think WoW is better with the sound only because it doesnt have constant music and only when you come into a new area. This game gives it a constant music thing which is ok because there are plenty of huge fields with nothing in them except for monsters and hills and this could distract you from it. It set the mood really well.

Graphics- THe graphics are ok. Nothing fancy here. The characters look allright the environments can look good at times. The sky is always sort of cloudy and the colors arent very bright. Nothing brilliant here but it still looks allright.

Overall its a very fun game to get into for a little while. It is free and you cant beat that... i think if they did have some money they could really turn this game around and it could rival WoW with its almost unlimited potential. It gives you more freedom than a lot of MMORPG's. WoW boasts freedom but you only have a few classes to choose from and are almost stuck into leveling up to have any fun but not here. You feel as though anything is possible.... and it would be if the graphics and game mechanics didnt hold it back. Hundreds of monsters and thousands of items and many quests await you in the world of Vormis! Try it out! Recommended.
