This looks pretty neat.  I'll give it a shot once the US version comes out.
Current want list:  Bomberman 93

They're playing it right now. I think that's the link you want.

I think I'll take a stab at this. I've always put Wizardry right up there with Might and Magic and Ultima. It's arguably a more rounded game in some ways as well.

It's not so much that it's more rounded.

It's just less-elaborate, and hasn't changed much since the first. 

I mean, there's still Gilgamesh's Tavern, and everything.

That's comforting. I'll try it out this weekend. I wish I could at work today but, you know....work.

In all honesty, if you don't really like interacting with the human race in video games, just play the PSN game.

I liked Wizardry Online when I beta'd and will probably get on it again once im done being balls deep into Ultima Online, but the problem is, it really focuses on having friends.



I was a wizard.   I blew shit up.   It was kind of OP.


Until you stop fighting zombies, at which point it is a f*cking mess to solo.

Do the zombies drain like they used to? I hated that, made the game that much more harder.

No.  The zombies are just slow moving retards that you blow up and easy-XP-Gain from.

It was to the point where I was carpet bombing an entire room with my eyes closed.


Then I went somewhere else and got teabagged by everything, lol

Might pick it up again this weekend. Nothing worse than getting spanked by hordes of monsters.

I'm still leaning towards Ultima.

Wizardry Online has great visual appeal, but isn't anything you can't experience solo with a party of 6 custom made dudes.

Interesting...it seems Wizardry is a lot like Everquest. Free to play and free to download. Their money comes from upgrades it appears.

If you can't tell, I'm not a big online gamer sort. Wizardry will be my first first serious stab at it. Unless you count playing Duke Nukem3D online with a few pals back in the mid 90's...

Yeah they are doing free to play.

I rerolled my wizard and did the beginning stuff.   It's the exact same as the beta, but it seems like some of the monsters aren't as deadly.

It still sucks that window mode is bugged and doesn't work.

How long as it been an issue? Is is something that I can expect will be fixed by the time I sign up?
