[1:08:22 AM] Painhertz: Checking out this Dawntide game
[1:08:25 AM] Painhertz: probably ass.
[2:07:15 AM] Redell: dawntide is ass
[2:07:23 AM] Redell: lol
[10:16:44 AM] Talie sin: a shame looks like a good concept
[11:19:48 AM] Painhertz: Bizarre. Tried to make a login with my usual name "painhertz" of course, and it tells me it';s already used. odd because rarely anyone uses my name. get it downloaded, log in a realize that I was in the closed beta of it YEARS ago. Exactly "nothing" has changed in years. uninstall.
[11:20:00 AM] Painherz: It's just 3-D Ultima Online btw.

I think he means to say that game mechanics are chosen by an in-game parliament.

And that means it's bad? If it was this, then it should be halfway decent. From the comments, it sounds like it's TRYING to be UO in 3D and failing.

Man, I'd kill to play a game that gave me the freedom and fantasy of Ultima Online again without being so goddamn dated. Dawntide is definitely not UO. It's a cheap clone at best.

Thus far all MMOs striving to remake UO are cheap clones. Does not inspire confidence when one hears "UO!!" listed as a goal.

It seems to pull a lot more from Shadowbane than any other game in particular. Hopefully there will be some updates soon.

You apparently missed the part where we said it was ass and that it hadn't changed at all since the closed beta and my uninstalling it.
