I played it for a day a few months ago, I couldn't get over how asian it felt. Not that it's a bad thing, but I just don't really get into MMO's that have an obvious heavy asian influence. From the art style, to animations, UI, text, everything. Murica.

the fully grown women with child like faces compelely creep me out.
kind of like how this creeps me out.
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.
My two favorite MMORPGs of all time are RuneScape, and FFXI.
Both were very Western in art-style. It's something I miss in most MMORPG these days. You'd think, with all the MMORPGs coming out of the West, we'd have Western RPGS...but we don't, just copies of WoWs cartoon armors. Or some psuedo asian design to appeal to hardcore anime lovers..
Sadly, FFXIV, XI's sequel, is far more Asian heavy. I know it's an asian game, but I liked that XI was unique that in coming from Asia, and Western armor looks way cooler on Tanks than the Asian half-tank top armor :P
Help get Camelot Unchained made, a old-school MMORPG, with no hand holding!

I am not a fan of the asain style either and speaking of western. I am still waiting for an old west mmo. I think that would rock (if done right_)

Something that surprised me about the game was how good the combat felt, even though its just tab-targeting like WoW or anything else, it felt much more satisfying.
I appreciate some people can't get past the art style, but if you're the type of person to put up with one bad thing for a bunch of good things.. then its always worth playing a new MMO, because you never really know until you try it for yourself.
Originally posted by hallucigenocide i got one of those invites aswell not sure if it's legit or not.. there's no code to enter only something about a glyph O.o
If you got an Email invite, your Trion account is activated for the beta. don't need a code.
Glyph is Trions new multi game updater. You need to download and install glyph and then from there you can install ArcheAge.
I think AA is worth it. I have been playing it every day for the last two months and I am still having a blast. There are a lot of non-mmo standard activities you can do like treasure hunting, farming, trade pack running. There is a completely standard quest line you can do if you prefer and there are several ways you can enjoy pvp. Not to mention sailing ships. very fun stuff.

ah ok but the game's going to be f2p right? so why would i bother beta testing it unless i was genuinely interested in it?

The game will be completely free 2 play with a cosmetic cash shop and gliders/boats to buy.

then i might aswell save myself the trouble of going through beta testing and just check it out once released then.. thanks!

No, the store will be P2W with Labor Potions and other gear, maybe not op gear but it is by far not only cosmetic or conveniance store. Think something between Rift store and the current total P2W store that is in its original country.
Yes the game is worth a try, it is by far not the worst mmo out there. Dont expect it to be the sandbox you were waitting for and be ready to find a lot of feature gated behind money but yes it is worth a try. It will give you at least one solid month of play time.
Been playing since Alpha founders packs launched and my opinion is that it is definitely worth at least trying the game! The necessity for teamwork is refreshing, haven't had this much fun in an MMO for awhile. The guild I'm in put together a fun video, check it out. We will be starting a Beta charter so drop us a line if you're looking for a laid back, fun group of folks to play with

Why would you even bother posting about an invite if you had no interest in the game ? f2p or not

i had some interest in it at some point obviously.. but seeing as it's a f2p game i might aswell just hold out and wait for the finished product..
and i've ventured into trying out other games since i signed up for the beta.

That might be a mistake.
It's not really "F2P". You can't own land without patron status, and that is massive.
Closed Beta is a way to get the full subscription experience without having to pay $15 a month until you know it's worth it to you.
I think you should take advantage of that if you think you might end up spending a lot of time on this game.

i've got nothing against sub's so if the f2p version hooks me in i'd probably pay for it anyway
Originally posted by holdenhamlet No it's definitely not worth downloading and you should send your key to me. It's the only logical solution.
Oh hell no, over my dead body.
Well ArcheAge, we know you will not be in Archeage/WoD since you won a WoD Beta Key.

Beta Key

Looks like new members are getting keys...have to keep you all here for the long haul. I think I remember getting a prize here, back in 2006 or 2007, they hooked me and never got one again.
Lucky thou I'm already in WoD Beta (Not playing) and ArcheAge (Server down atm). But I'm playing 7 Days To Die while waiting.
Funny thing is, as a longtime subscriber here at MMORPG, my access to both Betas came from a different source other than MMORPG.
Irony, but nonetheless I still like this site, has always had good info.

it greatly depends on your gaming background and what you have experienced.
On average I would say yes because the game shows features that many 'mainstream' MMO players are unfamilar with.

If you don't mind the download, just do it.
