i dont know if any of the old legend of mir 3 fans are still about, but its set to make a return on thursday (23rd).

For anybody who was a fan, i think most agree it was the most addictive mmo any of us have ever played. After its collapse in the hands of QGO, most of us went to wow, and have been there for 3 years now. Wow is great, it has everything a good mmo should have, except that xfactor of addiction. Mir3 was an aquired taste i think, it was an old classic where if you died, there was a good chance your dropping items, pots etc, death also meant losing experience. Its such a fun game, fighting for boss's that only spawn every 2 hours, fighting over what it drops, who gets to take what and whatever. Admitidley it lacked a lot of depth, but its depth was its simplicity.

Just last month me and my girlfriend had split, which was the only thing keeping me playing wow really, id done pretty much everything and killed everything (though havent seen ulda) so once ive done this mammoth project for college, ill be set to immerse myself in to it again :)

Its a worldwide server i think.... im hoping it gets enough people to warrant a full time contract from wemade. Its very sad really, but a game like mir3 can give your life purpose lol, with no level cap, no laws - ahhh i cant wait

not a whole lot to see, just the registration to wemade. download goes live on thursday i think :)

Bring back Mir 2 I say.

edit: I see they already did. Great game in it's day.

I played mir2 for a good few years, got hacked though so i quit. However i preffered mir3 since it felt like a fresh start, the graphics were a litlte more colourfull, taos got shinzu and skelly, new towns dungeons etc. But im glad both games are back, i just hope they both get enough people actually playing - ive seen no advertisments whatsoever, so i guess they are relying on word of mouth.
