I know this game is in early access. I know many people raise concerns and have suggestions for the developers; often this comes across as complaining and somewhat critical. But I just want to say I LOVE this game. It has a good amount of the old school UO feel. It has some new amazing ideas. It seems to capture all I loved about other MMOs and removed all the stuff I didn't like about other MMOs. For example, no question marks above NPC's heads, thanks so much! The overworld map is a great idea. The skill trees and character development are amazing. The sound and music is fantastic. The detailed crafting is terrific! Hail Lord British!
I agree with everything barring the music. I loved it, but after listening to the same music over and over, I've resorted to turning the music off.
UO was u8 Pagan online. SotA is u9 Ascension online. Not legally of course Long overdue and loving it fully.
I find the music kind of manic, adding to the way I feel when grinding. I would love to play the game as a ghost with that death music though, that'd be awesome :3 If we could open doors, throw plates and move furniture around I'd play as a poltergeist and haunt people's houses
I have some excellent tavern style music on a cd somewhere I need to dig out and play whilst been on SotA.
My favorite part of this game is the development process along with people pitching their ideas, hope, and dreams from different perspective.
The game rules....period! Hey, Raistlyn...I just checked out your vendor. I like your prices on iron ore! Nice selection of epic cloth armor too. Wish I had money! I'll be visiting soon! Good hunting
You may see some of this with player made quests using those hats they gave out during the last telethon.
I can't remember where or what scene it was and if it was in combat or not (would find out, but I'm at work), but there is some place that the music feels/sounds like a Silent Hill or Resident Evil track. I have to say, I enjoy it.
