Summary: Wow!!!
Review: I've been wanting this game for as long as I can remember, and when the open beta came out, I couldn't stop playing it! It was better than I imagined! The graphics are wonderful and the people playing it are actually nice and helpful, which is a nice change from the other online games I've played.

Review: If you've been looking for something outside the usual MMORPG with elves and fairies, this is going to be your game. I played in the beta and it started a little rough, but it's getting better every time I log in. This game has everything people have been begging for.An actual storyline. They've got 8 years of story planned. 8 YEARS! Considering most MMO stories are "Oh, some orcs decided to invade," this is good stuff. An original setting. No elves, no orcs, no castles, none of the usual high-fantasy stuff. If you're as sick of fantasy as I am, you'll breathe a sigh of relief. Best part: NO GIANT RATS! OR SEWERS! Skills, Skills, Skills. It's a classless system. That means whatever you want to do, you do. If you want to sling fireballs and be a wicked swordfighter, go for it. Train in whatever you want. More importantly, you can actually build your own actions and spells. Devs that care. How many times have we heard the whines, "This should've been in beta longer!"? This time they actually listened! If you read most of the whining, it's "They closed the beta! I can't play for free anymore!" If you pass over Ryzom for more of the Usual MMO Fantasy, you're doing yourself a grave disservice. This one's going to be the sleeper hit of 2004.
