Played it for about, 30 mins roughly and came to this.Combat is really lame, it's pretty much like a watered down version of WoW if you use your 1-5 to attack, and a really lame D2 hack and slash clicker if you just click attack.The mini games are pretty much click really fast or click at a certain time, all fairly easy. The racing sucks. Period. From how it played, although I didn't spend alot of time playing, it seemed to me to be a real childish version of EQ with WoW-ish tones that used big eyed anime style characters to appeal to younger audiences. The TL;DR version.Don't play it.
Probably because their target audience is children?
Wii is not a game, it's a platform for games. Saying wii is for kids is like saying a pc is for kids. It's all about what you play on it. Before my brother traded his wii in for an xbox he had the godfather game on it, where you run around and blow off mobsters heads with a shotgun. Does that sound like a little kids game?This game, I looked at it, haven't played, but I might for 5 mins later tonight just to see what's up. But from the sounds of it, the free version isn't that good so ultimately I'm going to pass.

Rant WarningI know people are saying this game is aimed at kids, but.. Its more than that which turns me off of it. This model they're using to market the game is all too familiar. Its the same marketing you see for kid's meal toys or for the latest theme on a classic game with popular characters on it. They don't want money right away, because they're confident they can get money from you slowly over time, as you want more features or fancier pants as the case may be. It isn't even in the least bit targeting the MMO veterans, and calling it an MMO is a stretch. It feels more like Second Life with a character sheet.Stepping away from that, there are other things it is lacking. Big things. The art style is not original or compelling, or even unique in some way. The characters could be taken directly from Sunday morning's generic animated kids show hour. Colorful is not the same as distinct, and even otherwise kid oriented games like Maple Story have a style you can immediately recognize. WoW has it, Lotro has it, Everquest has it, Warhammer has it, PuzzlePirates has it, just about any game you find has it. Will this lack of an attempt at character become the game's style?The way they're advertising the game should be kept in context, and some people condemning the game havn't done that. Every brand eventually commercializes. There is no fault in that, though the card game and other features Sony is offering can be distracting. Seeing a supplement launched at the same time as the MMO calls into question if the MMO is the line item, and that is what a lot of people want to see. An MMO with a universe so expansive and compelling that it can't help but leak out into other products. A lot of people love the WoW cardgame, for example. Its hard to feel that way when those same items are crutches to try to make the game popular. The concept Sony is trying with this new game may be a good one, but success won't mean that it was a good game. Just a successful marketing campaign.End RantIf you're looking for a new MMO to play because WoW isn't doing it for you anymore, think about what you want to see. A lot of people are advocating free, but you only have so much time in a day to devote to a game, any game. Don't play something that leaves you bored or wanting because it saves you five bucks.
um.. thanks but no thanks.. this does not look like a good game. I seen screen shots.. I think I will stick with WoW...
This game is fairly awesome for a free game. Unlike many people, I didn't mind the graphics and jumped right in. It's really fun, and the job system is great. Sure, it's kinda like Runescape, but it's a lot nicer looking and definitely more fun.
I didn't post anything that i tohught was wrong or bad about this game because i thought everyone is entitled to enjoy whatever they like without being insult or put down but now im kinda annoyed.I just checked my inbox and found 367 New emails from donotreply@freerealms.com exactly the same content in every single one"The username Groovz has been approved"and as i type this msn has come up with "new email from donotreply@freerealms.com" 5 timesWHats going on with Sony?...
