Come in, pull up a chair, let's discuss all things Ryzom-related.

Haha. Ok Mr. Forum server. Baztardized isn't a very nice thing to say about something, but it isn't a curse word.

I plan to stick around the newbie areas for QUITE a while because of this trouble as well. I VERY much like the community of both the Tyker and the Fyros newbie islands. I found ALOT of people with bits of knoweldge that truly enhanced my enjoying of the game (and I was thrilled with the little bit I learned in beta, so I thought I was as happy as I could get, but this game just keeps getting better for me!).

I understand the desire to hurry up, I am an explorer, and did ALOT of that during the crash test beta, we got a level boost for one weekend so we could go forth and look and see what there was. I didn't get to see much because that weekend my ISP went down for most of it.

And as far as distribution, Kansas was NOT the only area that got so few copies. Dallas Tx metro area got so few that I called more than 20 stores from Misquite in the east to far west Ft Worth before I found ONE copy at the EB games in Arlington's Park's mall (he is expecting a small shipment on Wed. should open the box that night and shelve them on thur. if you are in the DFW area and looking).

Some think that word is, and they are aiming at a teen audence, even if they missed a tad and hit the 25 to 45+ age group instead...which is fine by me since that is MY age group *giggle grin*

I tend to disagree with you about the "midevil fantasy" setting, there is just enough about this world that I have NEVER seen in any movie, read about in ANY book or seen on ANY other game. For instance, I saw a cannon, very VERY crude one on a Lord of the Rings series movie, and a VERY crude bomb, but NO guns. This game does NOT have ONE item that ANY midevil fantasy game HAS to have...the Bow.

Plus where are the elves, hobbits, dwarves as playable races and the goblins, trolls, orcs and other monsters.

Sorry if you just seeing the fantasy part of this, you are missing more than half the game if you don't see the rest.

I think Fjolnir was saying that WoW is something like that, not Ryzom. I mean, a hom.. person who is even remotely sane can't associate Ryzom to some sort of average Tolkien rip-off setting, right? Right.. ;)
