Good news for SoR fans, it's out!

http://ryzom.com/

I'm almost done installing hehe. It doesn't exactly bring anything new to the genre, it's not really groundbreaking or innovative but it does look pretty good :)

Edit: I'll post some ingame screenshots as soon as my account is activated.
 
I was going to download the beta from FPlanet, but I think it was over 1gb so I couldn't be bothered.
 
Yeah the filesize is a bit ridiculous, the game itself comes on two CDs but uncompressed it takes over 4.25GB!...
 
The beta was pretty boring... Personally I think new online games are becoming too complicated. In Ryzom they split every race up to their respective world when starting, thinning the player counts... And then those lands had like 3-4 "towns", making it even more spread out. In the end any sort of trade or even talking became impossible.
 
I played the beta for about 4 so hours and was incredibly bored by it. One thing that really made me mad was the sound effects for the spells, I wanted to shoot my brains out after multiple casts.
 
Well if the game becomes boring I'll just uninstall it, afterall I'm getting it for free hehe :)
 
I think that MMORPGS are boring, and they all involve spell casting in some way (besides planetside). I think someone should make a game of the entire world, so that you can go anywhere you want. You could even fight the wars a lot more realistically. or you could just drive around the world and wreak havok on the roads. It should be accurate to the last detail.
