Wizardry Online, permadeath in MMOs

So either you really don't like your way trough anything and you like to be handheld or (and i only say this because your comments "sounds" like it) you have tourette syndrome, and no, im not trying to make jokes of people with that disease.

or the third option...you're a kid with a sore ass.

There is a fourth option that the game actually does suck...I hope not but it is possible. Has anyone else actually got in the beta?

I'm in beta, and the game totally sucks shit, I don't know how they could make this pile of shit and call it a game.

I leveled, priest,fighter,mage and thief to lv 5, the combat and skills are just mind numbing boring and slow, the combat sucks, and everything wants to fucking kill you and you will die, traps/rock falls/spikes 1 shot kill you, mobs respawn behind you and they kill you, want loot? nope you cant have it traps on treasure chests 1 shot kill you.

There is nothing fun about the game, feels like work and grind til you die.

Uninstalled, F U C K this game.

The game is meant to appeal to a certain genre of gamers who like this style of hardcore gaming. You don't even belong there so no need to trash talk it.

Clearly you're a really helpful beta member.... it's in closed beta for a reason, it's not finished. Probably just another COD fanboy bashing on whatever you can.

It's people like you that damage indie devs the most. Your comment has no purpose other than flaming on something. Wizardry is obviously targeted at a particular audience. Just because you don't enjoy it or aren't good enough to play it doesn't make it bad, especially when it's in BETA!

Chill the jets man. Chill 'em.
Beta is beta, to quote a ton of people, so let it be beta and provide constructive feedback to improve it.

intresting to run across this discusion while searching for the actual beta tester forums (still cant seem to find them hahaha)

ok i AM a sap for hardcore games that make you sweat with their difficulty level and all, but ill give you my breakdown of WO so far. its not difficult, not even slightly, if you have patience and good judgement you can burn through most things without effort. yes ill admit there are awfully damaging traps and its practically impossable to open a chest without it blowing up in your face, but its not all that worry some. there are 2 forms of permadeath, the character death wich just removes one of your acounts caracters and the soul death. the soul death happends if you manage to fail a resurection attempt completely wiping all characters, progress and items from your account (this includes cash items too). now so far this is fine with me its all good and fun and you should only really expect these to happen if you make a mistake in your judgement, BUT! unfortunately SOE allowed permanent PVP. i dont mind PVP i just try to keep away from it most of the time, unfortunately as im sure most of you know, people in general are assholes, heck im an asshole i know it and readily admit it, but the kind of assholes youll get on WO are the guys that camp at the entrance to an instance waiting for anyone whos just gotten access to that new area just so they can kill them. this is a major pain seeing as the revival statue is a little bit ahead of the camp spot so you revive only to have the camper intercept you as you try to leave, rinse repeat, welcome to Wizadry Online. because of this there are massive amounts of players stuck at certain levels with no way to advance, shame too, although the combat is still a bit clunky and the camera is kindoff terrible the game can actually be fun. anywho i dont think its going to last as long as it could have seeing as the average enjoyment seeker will get buthurt as soon as they leave the safety of the first area, and i belive even some of the more harcore gamers will just leave it be when they manage to aceave something, only to have some little punk run up behind them, kill them and get a failed revive.

i f i could get a say in this i would basicly try to keep PVP to more restricted areas like a proper full open PVP dungeon rather than anywhere thts not the center of town.

hahaha cant belive i signed onto this just to leave this comment, hope it will give potential users a heads up as to what to expect so they dont end up with ...that previous posters sort of comment hahaha.

Beta tester forum will be in the email SOE sent you after entering your key on the site.

If you don't have the email or the forum link, shoot me an email at Loktofeit@WizardryVault.com and we'll get you sorted out. Oh and... NDA, man... geez :)

Is this game related to the Wizardry series of RPG's from the 80's/90's?

Played Wizardry 8 in particular to death, there was so much replayability in that game.

That game totally sucks for many reasons lol

I'm sorry, but permanent death in a mmo is a waste of time to me. While it isn't to some others I just don't get it. I have a few friends who play different mmo's like ragnarok online, pwi, wow, etc and if they die they delete their character and start all over. lol
