The guy reviewing is a mook. I tried not to laugh at the ignorance. |

Enjoy? Ohh my goodness.
Funny how he’s (Omer) so accustom to reviewing mostly 3-class, gender-locked, Asian-like games, for the most-part, that the character creation of Mortal Online had him totally confused, and stammering.
Then there’s the abbreviated transcript of his review:
“again, not sure. . .again, not sure” “not sure why…not sure why”
“[gibberish, gibberish, gibberish, tongue stumbling, tongue stumbling tongue stumbling]”
“im not sure how to do things, I don’t know, maybe, awesome, click, click, tab, ohhhh”
“Darkfall did a better job, I’m lagging, ahhh corrected itself, stuttering, stuttering, whooaaa, there’s a guy there with an axe”
“im confused, w-a-s-d movement, you can attack players, I don’t know how to unsheathe my weapon, I really, I really, I really wish this game did a better job introducing me to the game”
“I mean, I mean, I mean”
At the end of this Game-Play first-look, watching it, watching his experience, how in the world can he conclude that the game has a lot going for it?
Omer from mmohut is probably the worst person, aside from someone that hates Mortal Online, to actually attempt to review the game. He delivers a killer review of a simple and shallow rudimentary online rpg; he doesn’t have to formulate much thought with them.
But man-oh-man.

I just finished playing for about an hour for the first time. Most of my time spent playing was reading the tutorial tips, so I know how to fight things and so on. So I found his rambling to be hillarious to the point that I had tears coming out of my eyes while laughing. When he went to go fight that boar, I died laughing, especially after it raped his dead corpse. Then there was the guy jerking off that donkey, lol. |

Developers forgot what made mmos special. Until we get that back the genre wont move forward. |

That video just shows how Mortal Online still should be in beta. 15 minutes of opening gameplay and you notice so many bugs. They just drop you off in the game with you not knowing nonthing. Also Omar is pretty good at what he does. I watch his first impression videos alot.

Originally posted by Mannish He is. I watch alot of his first impression videos; I do enjoy them, really, but this one did no justice for MO.
I'm not a MO fanboi, I do enjoy the games' concept alot, but there are a few game-play mechanics reasons I dont play. |

Well he does 1st impression videos and I havnt seen him do a tutorial on any game unless the game forced him too.I dont think he wants to spend an hour(which is what nate1980 said was the majority of his 1st hour of play) reading the tutorial,but just wants to give people a chance to see what the graphics look like and how the gameplay is and basic mechanics,sort of like what Ripperx is now doing for mmorpg.com.True he could have done the tutorial before starting the video,maybe it was a user request and he wasnt really interested in MO. From what I just saw the starting gameplay hasnt changed much, empty world,not much in the way of wildlife, pigs stuck in funny spots,this one was stuck between a tree and a rock where as mine were riverbed walkers hehe,and last I played was in the open beta stage along time ago. |

OMFG, This is the Boxxy of MMORPG reviewers.
I want to stick a boot in his mouth. Never trust a screenshot or a youtube video without a version stamp! |

Did he forget his Ritalin? Had he already forgotten "Oh, press H for help. I don't want to do that" when he got to "i'm not really sure how to do things. and this isn't really doing a good job kind of explaining it." ? His introduction to MO is entertaining and good for what it is, However, at such a frenetic pace I don;t know how you can do a meaningful review of any game. |

he obviously was not the right person to review this sort of game, the most basic of systems in mo had him stumped i think its clear to see hes used to theme park mmos which is fine however he is not suited to reviewing a game outside of his known subject area, for example someone who soley plays rpgs should not be reviewing an fps. someone who soley deals with theme park mmos should not be jumping into the deep end with a complex sandbox mmo and expecting to know what hes doing without reading up on one first. was kinda amusing thoguh especially how he couldnt pronounce quite alot of words that are easily pronounced but its quite possible english isnt his native language i guess.

watch these two tutorial videos first^^ there are 2 types of mmo, imitators and innovaters. |

Oh man, this guy is terrible. I just watched his review, or whatever you want to call it, of APB: Reloaded. It's terrible, talk about the blind leading the blind... He says too many words without actually saying anything productive. Just runs around letting everyone know he has no idea what in the world he's doing. |

Very annoying commentator... |

This video just serves as perfect proof on how userunfriendly the game is. I am sorry to burst some bubbles here, but it is not hardcore to be lost at most basic systems, it is just poor game design. The guy did many reviews on games such as UO, EvE and other "sandboxes", and even if HE feels lost.. guys, you are really fighting a lost war here. Neither was he really that confused at character creation, given that it's a completely different system he figured it out pretty quickly. It is rather ignorant to mock him being foncused by the game. when it just clearly shows how badly the game is designed. In a good game you should NOT need to read tutorials BEFORE you even login. A good game should teach you on the go. But sure, continue believing in it all being user fault, if it helps you sleep at night. Thou I must admit it is weird he forgot the "press H for help", but none the less game is terrible at new user experince. |

admittedly, I didn't watch the entirity of this video because I can't stand his voice but I did watch more than I wish I had of his video for APB. The guy was lost in there because he didn't pay attention to what was on his screen, he didn't bother to find out what the controls do, he didn't pay attention to anything indicating where he was or what he should be doing. The guy's a spaz. It's like they took his ADD meds away, stuck infront of a new game he's never heard of and told him to ramble for 15min. What I did bother to hop thru this video and watch was the exact same thing. Smashing buttons without any idea if they do anything, rambling about what's not happening and just generally being lost because he doesn't pay attention to anything on the screen. |

MMOHut are made of idiots. They are so ignorant with every review/playthrough they do. Its like they never played games let alone MMOs. They just spew misinformation about every game they do, its so annoying. |

I agree, MO is low quality but this guy's review doesn't put him in any position to judge. |
