Yeah, for me WoW is the most "open" Themepark MMO I have ever played! And I remember to this day my first griffon flight (back in 2006) from Stormwind to Westfall. At that time I was still quite heavily invested in Ultima Online and WoW seemed to me…
Thanks for all the replies!
Yeah, perhaps I was using the wrong term. It is not so much an open world that I am looking for, but a seamless world. I know that WoW is heavily instanced and using phasing and all that crap, but at the moment my tim…
Originally posted by Dullahan Archeage is seamless. Only loading screens I can think of are entering dungeons and arenas which are instanced.
As to why games aren't seamless, I'm not sure. I have more a problem with games being instanced than I …
Living in Europe I am wondering where those new servers (TERA via Steam) are located? I've read somewhere they are located in the US? Is that correct? And if so: How bad is the lag? Anyone from Europe playing Tera via Steam?
Thank you for all your answers!
Although I would like to give Eve Online a try, I think the Sci-Fi-Setting is not made for me. So, I think I am gonna head back to UO.
God, I really miss UO, every time I log in, its like coming home. Standing at …
Honestly, I fail to see why anyone should bother with DF or MO. All the time I read something like "Remembers me of the good old UO days, just lacks some content" bla bla bla. Or "UO was far better, MO and DF are nothing else than PvPing, wheres the…
Ultima Online - without any doubt!
There was no other game, there is no other game and there will be no other game that offers so much variety and game depth. In the years I played UO I tried a lot of different "professions":
- I was a PvPer for…
Wow, what a thread ^^
To the original poster: UO is - at least - my future. Tried a lot of other MMOs in the last few years, looked at them for a few weeks, LOLed big time, and everytime immediately returned to UO. I don't see a single game on the…
Dude, there is an MMO like that out there: Ultima Online.
I spent the last year being a crafter on Defiance Freeshard, holding the largest store there. I never felt more like a crafter than in UO. I had to work several hours ingame after working l…
I just wrote a long reply to your post until my Explorer crashed ^^, so I make this short:
You have valid points, no doubts, and as I have said: I certainly liked the old UO more (and whenever I get "homesick" I just log on Defiance). But EA-UO is…

Even in its CURRENT state, UO still beats every other MMO I trie…

I would gladly go back to UO because, like others, I believe it's still not been topped by any MMO out there. However, I can't bring myself to go back and here is why:
#1 EA's lack of interest in making UO the …
Even if LotRO is no sandbox (and I prefer to play sandbox) I seriously would give it a chance, if they integrated PvP into the game. Without PvP or PvP limited to monsters vs players there is nothing LotRO could offer me (except for brilliant Dirext…
As I understand, you like a handy PvE-Part and and you are not into PvP? Then I suggest trying out Lord of the Rings Online. Seriously, I can not imagine a better PvE system. EQ/WoW do have more quantity when it comes to PvE, but LotRO has more qual…
Ultima Online:
1. IDOCs: Houses from player accounts that are no longer paid for, are going through different stages ("Like new", "slightly worn", "greatly worn" etc.) until they finally reach their last stage "In Danger of Collapsing". Other play…

Don't try Warhammer!
I loved my WoW-Rogue and got into Warhammer afterwards, searching for a Rogue Class. Everyone recommended Witch Hunter to me as a Rogue class. Does not even come close to WoW-Rogue. So if anyone recommends Warhammer when it co…

Does nobody else realize that WoW doesn't really have PVP? It's a mini-game.
Well, although I kind of despise WoW, I have to side with WoW in this matter. You can not really compare it with games like UO, D…
