de gustibus non est disputandum (its a matter of taste).

There is a German proverb that states "Those pronounced dead shall live longer". This seems to be the case with this game and I'm of course glad about that for I enjoy playing it. It lacks a lot of appeal in certain respects -- fighting and quest…

Originally posted by Hadesprime the fanbase are one of the reasons why the game is in trouble. They are all a bunch of silly little sheep that are too scared to ask the real questions. Horizons should have died a long time ago. it would have to ha…

Played a gnome mage and multicrafter on the European shard, that was called Ice at that time and later merged into Unity -- I think for somewhat more than a year. Left Unity and started from scratch on the american server Order again with a gnome ma…

Originally posted by Shadrak Horizons has been around for 3yrs. its pretty safe to say that those who were inclined to try it already have. The game and its devs/owners over the years have used up and consequently lost any major playerbase…

Originally posted by Zorvan ... On the contrary, I do not "wish it dead". However, as I stated, do you really see anyone buying this franchise after all the trouble it's had and the fact that I'm sure it's lost more money than it's made? Why wo…

Originally posted by Zorvan Still the same bar-slider system. Still can't swim, you just walk along the bottom of the water and out the other side, or drown (except in Pratts Pond, which you can sit at the bottom of with no penalty. Some of th…

Originally posted by Parsifal57 Originally posted by snickel [...] I think bashing the current owner of a game is not the way to achieve improvement. Like punishment will not make children better human beings, if that analogy bringt my poin…

Originally posted by KlausW Originally posted by snickel I meant the former Tulga employees and their friends who do their very best to harm the game. I have great respect for the work they did for the game while they still were in charge, but I f…

Originally posted by Arremus Originally posted by snickel The critique notwithstanding -- playing horizons even in the state the game is currently in is way better than missing out on it. For me and many others (those that like to craft or li…

Originally posted by Zorvan Only desperate fanbois and the clueless (see above you) 2 reasons not to play the game: 1) If you have misgivings about the company running it 2) If the game doesn't appeal to you. 1) People who still play are aware …

The critique notwithstanding -- playing horizons even in the state the game is currently in is way better than missing out on it. For me and many others (those that like to craft or like to play dragons) it is still the best game on the market. I…

Originally posted by martinj63 Oh please, Emo much? People were lied to and they were defrauded, and neither Tulga nor EI has made compensation. That my friend is illegal it is unethical and those that perpetrated it should pay with their money…

Rarely have I seen a change of ownership in a game accompanied by so much emotion. There were mistakes that TULGA made and there were mistakes that EII already has made. Of course. But where is this game now? It is still alive. It is still fun to …

Yes, they have billing problems. Yes, things are frozen right now and the future is uncertain. But I still play it, like many others. And I like it a lot. None of the games that are due to be released has all the features that I like in this game,…

Hi Finduilas, being a crafter and not an adventurer, most of the disadvantages you mentioned do not affect me as much, even though I noticed them. I am a big fan of horizons, still I think your critical and sometimes negative review is a fair one. …

One of the reasons for the good community is that there is no open pvp. In games mainly designed for pvp i have met people who take a unique pleasure in pestering noobs and killing people for spite or to feel strong and feared. There is no ganking …

Explore explore explore -- even regions that were familiar have changed (see Kion/Sslanis). Go to Bristugo and look where all the Portals lead. Visit the Vielos at Bristugo to get a feeling of the expert formulas and tech components that are sold…

There's no accounting for tastes... Horizons is worse than many games in some regards, true. And it has unique features no other game has, and these are enough to keep people playing it. If you find other games with such extensive crafting, where…

Yes, there have been attacks on the major cities (like Aughundell, Kion, Bristugo...) -- these attacks depend on the presence (and time budget) of a worldmaster. In other words: Soneone in Tulga (or GN for the Europeans) has to take the time to orch…
