One thing I love about Ryzom - no difference between races other than appearance / story.
The best place to check out looks is here :

I have heard negative and positive things about EVE. I have heard it is a Huge game, but I have also heard that it is almost to big and much of it simplifies down to repetiveness, but if it's PVP is good I'm willing to g…
people keep thinking EVE is like World of Warcraft where you just run up to a guy, hit a few buttons, then own or get owned
EVE's nothing like that. player created professions run rampant.
The best thing a newbie can do is look into a suppor…
EvE Online is pretty good if you can get past the time based training (which is both awesome and horrid at sametime)
Players can takeover space in 0.0, build deathstars, build their own jumpgates complete with passwords, build any weapon, ship…

Jesus I don't want to be rude, but that OP was stupid as hell. There have been plenty of MMO's in the past with full looting in PvP that have been extremely successful (And EVE). End …
I never said WoW had best crafting system or anything. I would enjoy being able to develop my own recipe and just make something. And I for sure not down for Levels being attached to Items.
near future:
fable 2, fallout 3, star wars unleashed
future:
anything different like fallen earth, well online, APB (cause Crackdown rocked for us and promise of no grind). earthrise, mortal, maybe jumpgate evo, maybe huxley if not a grind

We already have plenty of class & skill-based MMOs. How do you think you skill up your weapon and crafting skills in World of Warcraft for example? They used a minimum use based syste…

Sorry, but Ryzom was really retarded. Pick a "class" from a typical MMO. For the first 50 levels, you only have 1 skill for that chosen class. And no, you cannot really use the other skills at the same time. It's a …
skill-based games already do this so I'm kind of lost. In eVE, it would take what someone help me, 20 years to unlock all the skills? Go play EVE to see how well or bad it works
Also in Saga of Ryzom I highly doubt someone unlocked all the skills?…

Very easier to get into BG PvP.

Thanks Abrahmm. Paul, yeah it has a few annoying things but almost every feature I hate I also love.
Time based training is love / hate for me. I can't stand waiting on the timer but it has taught me patience and it helps make our builds uniqu…
Bah narusselsen made me do something hate doing and that is misrepresent EVE Online. It is true there is no safe zones in normal MMO speak. But there are 'safer' zones. I unfortunately cannot properly explain EVE Online it is truly complex. All I ca…

I wonder why "some rare few" PVE'ers think pvpers are begging for them to please come play our MMO as if our game is empty? EVE is what about 250k with over 40,000 concurrent player…
I'm an Emancipator I suppose. But seriously though most of these game developers are being controlled by the "suits" that's the only reasonable explanation for all these lackluster clones we've been seeing
I'm pretty old Kurush but I missed out on Trade Wars. Instead of playing BBS I played console games
However to redeem myself just a little I played a little Elite at a friend's house and Starport in which I'm told was influenced heavily by Tra…

Ah right Guild Wars is king for pure casual PVP. They dont force you to grind PVE at all. Just pure fun and has ju…
