Nice steep learning curve though so be warned but if you keep at it you will be in for a hell of a ride. Check it out !!!

    In todays landscape other than EVE, I would say Ryzom is your best choice, not to mention its free for the moment.  As far as coming soon™ there are a few others in development worth following like Fallen Earth, Earthrise and W.E.L.L. Online.

    Im kinda new myself having not played for like 3 years but everything you want in a sandbox is there. I started a new account and several new toons before deciding on an Zorai. You might want to check out some lore of game while youe downloading. www.ballisticmystix.net   might be a good place to start. There are others just google Ryzom lore or check main forums for background. See ya on Atys!

    PvP isn't FFA as some were looking for.  Right now PvP exists in these forms:

    • Faction vs. Faction
    • Special PvP areas
    • PvP Arenas
    • Outpost Battles (More massive and interesting than WAR IMHO)

    The best option is if you interested in PvP, is to seek out a PvP Guild once you get to Ryzom, or tag yourself for Faction war.

    Well said Souvec!!! Thanks...

  • PaPsnPaPsn Member Posts: 40

    not bad ...

    Can you loot stuff in that game ?

    I mean what is the punishment for death ? Can people loot you , or you just loose exp ?

    There is a xp death penalty you have to pay back before you earn normal xp again. But you dont lvl up like in conventional games. You actually level up the 4 main skills you can learn. Harvesting, crafting, magic and fighting. every item in game is player created and all loot usually consists of materials for crafting. Ranging from quality lvl 1- 250 in 5 different quality tiers...You will have a lot to learn on Atys but learning is half the fun!

    Actually I just found out there is a lot more than just the 4 basic skills you start the game with...
