I've played many, many MMOs this is the best. It's 2D but the design is flawless for hardcore open pvp. Can own entire planets and build colonies. defend the planet or just the surface. fight real wars you create. no sick grindfest

has all types of servers like permaverses and rebangs. I live on the rebangs. hardcore pvp. We all compete and once someone 'wins' the universe we all get wiped. thats right- this way noobs always got a shot at the devs. no unfair advantages

being playing this game for a bit trying to get my old guild to transistion over. its that awesome. a simple little 2d game i had no idea how fun they can be. small independant devs you gotta love them they make stuff out of pure love.

entire community appears to be hardcore. I love it. no one crying other this class overpowered or over loot and other meaningless things

Entire community levels together. true persistance. build colonies, defend them, or watch them get razed. looting, all here on rebangs

Asheron's Call 14 day trial

Darktide server, open PvP, players drop items.

Mage dual in a private arena (note: he has the UI fully expanded, 3D area isn't that small).
Mage fights on landscape
Stupid mage vs. sword dual in arena

EvE online is a completly unrestricted PvP based game with a ahrsh death penalty. To give it a fantasy based example if you die you lose ALL your gear Permanently and you may lose some of your players experience. The winner may get to loot some of your items too tho depending on things most of your stuff is destroyed.

EvE is full of PvP gankers and anti gankers so if you want unrestricted PvP [even in newbie zones] then eve is for you.

It is worth noting that PvP in newbie zones is harder tho and you tend to lose your stuff too as the police will ALWAYS kill you for attacking a neutrall player. If you dont die then thats considered an exploit and your victim can petition you and will win.

EDIT:- forgot to say there is no leveling [make a new post in eve forums to find out more]. And you can be good in groupe PvP within a day or so.

Well not sure what the game is called my friend played it a few years back and i ahve never been able to tracj it down.

Fantasy based with a baulders gate type graphic engine

open pvp howerver if ya get too evil u get npc and player authorites try and track u down and kill you

the game has classes like assasin archer battlemage etc based on forgotten realms , so many similarities

players can on cities warhorses (who helop in fights) and it is turn based fighting,

natural game events such as, chaos comes to lay siege to cities and players and npc alike try to stop the advance and the sige

u have skill lvls and layers lvls also some r time based combined with the more u use the etter u become and exp for a player lvl

ow and it its permadeath but it is hard to die as u can lose limbs break bones etc,

if any1 knows what this is please let me know or a similar game
