    Wtf are some of you talking about? The figurines are absolutely crappy, they look like those plastic soldier toys that were so in vogue in the eighties. Who cares if they are "pewter" or whatever, they're dogshit and so tiny your children could eat them.

    Mortal Online is so hardcore sandbox you even need to paint your minuscule figurines with a microscopic brush.

    If this limited edition turd bag isn't empirical proof enough that this game is a scam, then I don't know what is. I guess these days we have such "shitty" and "uncreative" MMOs like WoW it's perfectly acceptable to pay 100$ dollars to some basement dwellers who ship a useless client dvd to your home!

    True, though it's about time people start putting the blame for this where it belongs. That's with the people facilitating such practices, over and over again. You would think after Age of Mourning, and it's different variations, as well as the debacle known as Dark and Light. People would have become at least some what cautious in how they spend their money.

    If people didn't take the bait these scams wouldn't exist, and they definitely wouldn't be repeated. Of course the same people taken by Dark Fall early on(felt scammed) and later MO, have moved on to the next pe-order-o-rama known as Xsyon. We'll see the same posts and rampant mocking as well with it, it's inevitable.

    SO many will be outraged that yet again they were taken by hype, they'll rant and rave, at least until the next sandbox pre-order is available.Then the process starts all over again.

    I have been inspired. I am going to write a book, 900 pages long. I will write the first 20 pages, and then because I want my readers to explore and create their own story, I will leave the rest blank, and make millions.

     

    Thank you Mortal Online. Thank you so much for inspiring me!

    Ok, waitasec...

    Beyond the crappy Reaper mini's that I could buy for $3 - $5 on eBay and it only costs them pennies on the dollar to make.

    And if what the video says is true:

    1) The client enclosed in the cool tin box does not work. ($10)

    2) There is absolutely no instruction booklet for the game. ($0)

    3) The art book is 1/2 empty (If you draw then it may be a plus) but its a cheap softcover and I can get better hardcover sketchbooks for $7 ($5)

    4) Cheap poster ($5)

    5) Cheap cloth bag with screen printing ($5 tops)

    Did you at least get the traditional 30 days of free gametime?

    So...you paid $108 to get into a beta version of a game and now have all this "loot" and will continue to pay $15 USD monthly to continue to play MO.

    Postage they had to pay $15-20

    New game cost is usually $50-60 where most developers drop 45% of that just to make the game. Then they have to give a cut to publishers and so on and so on.

    Ok with some simple math...

    Looks like they made 15 buckaroos on you and if they sold 999 units they made $14,995.00 off of all the sods that bought it. That is a drop in the bucket compared to what it costs to just make a game engine. But in the end it is buyer beware and in the words of the "immortal" P.T. Barnum, "There's a sucker born every minute"

    I could be wrong and I am sure that people here will tell me how and why, but this is just how it looks from where I stand. If you are not happy with the product, contact the company and complain. See if they at least will give you some free playtime to compensate for at least not having a F-N instruction book!

    tell him about how you hate MO and yet you applied to be a GM for it :) I am in stitches right now :D

     

    by the way, you have become a laughing stock on MO forums :)

     

    1) I never applied, it was a joke (I think)image

    2) Don't care if the fans are mad at me for posting criticizm image

    I think the point was missed.  About everything in the loot bag was either broke, incomplete or cheap, and in addition to that, the game is still broke.  Perhaps that's priceless?

    Striving for Silver Stars since Gold is so effeminate.

     no offense but your sig is absolutely annoying. I really wish youd take it off, or reduce its size. the same with rlmcoy

    I agree... it's just too big.

    guy in the video had me rolling with that one.

    Me too. I just hope that term doesn't become commonplace.

     Probably because it was distracting as hell.

     

    What's the original video of anyway?
