Well i just got done playing for a couple hours. I went through the training zone and i'm still in the next starter area. It's a charming game. Don't expect great graphics or animations. It's very 90's graphic style. It seems quite stable. It's easy to understand and it's not difficult by any means.

I think for $40 people will be expecting nothing less than what Guild Wars offered at that price point. This game definitely doesn't offer that so i can't see anyone wanting it at their initial price. However, for $9.99 and no monthly fee the game definitely makes up with charm what its missing in bells and whistles. If you're a graphics whore this game is definately not for you. If you modern animations, skill trees with 100 branches or hardcore raiding.. yeah probably not for you. If you want a game where you can chill out for a bit, kill some trolls, pick some berries, mine some rocks and relax... it's a good game for that :P

Guild Wars has a level cap of 20, Fasaria World has a level cap of 200. After level 20, most players pretty much stop playing or if they are motivated enough start a new character in Guild Wars. I believe the level cap was set so low to encourage players to move along to other games to prevent server over load since they aren't paying a monthly fee to maintain server usage. Guild Wars has little crafting and they do not have farming and mining, Fasaria World has a detailed farming and mining system. Guild Wars has a great PVP system and guild hall for guilds to meet and challenge other guilds, Fasaria World, you can earn your own property with many tasks and activities to complete. Both of them you can hire a mercenary to aid you in battle. Based upon some player feedback, they prefered the style of game over many subscription based mmos. It's all about your taste and what you are looking for in your online experience. Below is a list of features.

Here are some of the features you will find in Fasaria World.

•One time payment. NO MONTHLY FEES.
•Challenging level cap of 200 to keep you fully engaged.
•RPG game elements and story makes the game immersive, progressive and full of direction. You always have a sense of achievement and purpose.
•A unique Combat, Karma and Labor system you can level up through various tasks. This adds a lot of variety to the overall experience and also provides Medals that leads to great rewards.
•Earn your own property where you can build your kingdom, collect taxes, farm your land, mine, pan for nuggets, complete Fairy Missions and more.
•Edit and update your own custom shop and sell items to players online.
•Amazing farming and mining system that fully ties into your game experience. Various crafting options, attributes and skills that level up with character progression.
•Upgrade your Weapons and Armor with Crystonian Shards.
•A unique party system based upon your "faction party" allows players to earn more experience and rewards in larger groups.
•Hire one of 3 mercenary classes to aid you in battle.
•Lots of quests with great rewards and updated content.
•An engaging real time battle system with attributes to level up for improved skills and combat performance.
•Join a guild or form your own.
•Earn your wings, a fairy, a mount or other rare items.
•Trade Market allows you to sell or buy stock items based upon the current market value.

Looks cool, but not for me.

Because each account has to be set up manually, how does this work when someone buys the game late at night, or on the weekend, or on a holiday?  I know you and your staff can't work 24/7, so what is the game plan for purchases during nonbusiness hours?

Fortunately, I'm not one of the Impatient Irvins that populate MMORPG.com, and it doesn't bother me to wait until I get the email.  I like supporting the underdogs and Indies, and I don't hold them to the same standard as the AAA companies.

No problem at all. Please always contact us by email as you will always get a faster response that way. Simply send us the email you used to make your account and we will update you asap.

EDIT: To answer your question, I take my work home with me after office hours and do the best to get all orders and questions answered that might have been missed for that day. It's the very least I can do.

yb - I couldn't find an email address on your website so I sent one to the address listed in your MMORPG profile.

I have sent in a notice to MMORPG to include this game in the game list.  Hopefully in the next week or so the game will have it's own space with a forum.

ok they got me, i spent 40 bucks so i feel i am entitled to give some info. avoid this game, it was a nightmare for me. Graphics nothing to brag about, 1280x960 is highest setting..those screenshots in this tread looked better than game to me. it was very clunking, had some window open twice and after i couldn't move and hit every key trying to close it to no avail, and god forbid if i hit ,esc. it would start a logout that i couldn't stop, hit every key ,esc. again would reset timer but not stop. i'm not a pvp'r at heart, would rather pve and craft epic things like back in early swg, but couldn't even make it to crafting in this nightmare, oh and help is useless also. so was trying to decide what is worse, this game or a stick in the eye, and all i can come up with is i'll take a stick in the eye if i can get my 40 bucks back.....best to save your money for some of the better games comin out soon, go play a free game...i think your be more happy in the end.

1. Who are you number 4 post man? I don't know you.

2. If you did purchase the game it seems as if you couldn't even get to crafting, you obviously didn't play long, if you even purchased the game. Don't know if you even know how to play but half of what you typed made hardly any sense. None of the players that spent the full amount had an issue. I don't even know who you are as everyone who purchased of late used the $9.95 special coupon. Since you are so new to this community (4 posts) I question who you are and I question your motives.

3. Cool, but for the most part I've only received positive feedback. You are entitled to your own opinions as our game won't be for everyone but um you seemed in an ironic rush to post a bad review where you didn't even get far in the game. Rarely have I seen that even with games people didn't like.

This is a very kind gesture and thank you for the effort.

It seems very odd on one hand a random player trying to get us on mmorpg list and on the other a random 4 post member trying to discredit the game. It's been a very interesting time on these boards.

I remember how this topic started and I'll repeat, a random player of ours got excited and started posting reviews and recommendations in various sites including on this forum. I had no idea this was being done until I saw the link he posted on the forum. Someone was excited about the game and wanted more people to join. I would have loved to compensate such generosity if we were in a perfect world, but in today’s world you can not. Since then we have received an overflow of supportive members and many nice people on this site who for no reason I can think of showed a great amount of encouragement and support in spite of random negative attacks.

Right now as the lead developer for Fasaria World, I'm simply trying to keep up with this topic and its responses. I would prefer a positive community of members who enjoy the game and each other's company so if you are a rare case that do not like the game, just ignore this topic, ignore our website and never look upon us again.

Not to defend the guy with four posts or anything but this is a public forum and people are free to express thier opinions here.If you would like to moderate forums I suggest doing so on your own forums.

I have a right as much as you claim you do to be on this topic and to answer questions, keep things on topic and things positive as well.

These are the forum rules below. I suggest it is also read and folowed:

Topic Hijacking
Posting comments within a thread which severely disrupts the original conversation is prohibited at MMORPG.com. Example: Asking whether a game has PvP in a thread about crafting materials found in a new expansion is Topic Hijacking.
 

Flaming and Personal Attacks
MMORPG.com does not tolerate personal attacks on other posters. Please keep your arguments and posts on topic, and argue the ideas and topics of the thread instead of insulting other users. Example: Telling someone that you disagree with their argument is tolerated, while calling someone inappropriate names is not.
 

Game Attacks
Unsubstantiated comments about specific or general games will be penalized in nearly the same way attacks against people will. The exception is that you can say mean things about games provided you back it up with reasons. Example: "Game X sucks." is not a legitimate comment. "Game X sucks, because..." is acceptable.

I know the rules,fact is guy has a opinion different than what you wanted and you don't like it,that's fine.Asking people to not post anything but positive things in this thread or bugger off isn't.You called him "mister 4 post man" so looks like you broke the rules too.

This is getting off topic and it sounds childish at this point. Most readers would look at this as being a bit intentional. If you read this topic it is flooded with honest opinions and advice, not all were positive. Opinions are also welcomed even though I have the same right to defend or discredit any negativity said about our game. If I give the suggestion to ignore this topic, I have a right to do that as well. I mean, I welcome it. I'm only here because the people willed me here. This game and this topic can just be ignored and everyone has the right to do that equally and let it die off.

There is obviously a very big interest in this game else there would not have been so many posts on it. The question is, what is the "intent" behind the people posting. The initial intent was an excited player who wanted people to check this game out. I personally would have never posted on these discussion boards knowing that it is a very tough crowd. It was done anyway and from there I've been keeping up to date with all comments requests and interest.

If your intent is to hijack the topic, get off subject and encourage others to do the same, that I have every right to voice against.
 

Yodablaze, as "Lead Developer" for Fasaria World, do you really have the time to hangout here harassing people who have a different opinion of your game than you do?

I mean the game just launched! Surely there must be SOMETHING that needs doing in Fasaria World. A tweak here, a balance there. Anything?

Why don't you do us all a favor and go make your game even better.

Be realistic - this is the Internet, and that is never going to happen.  You step into the limelight, and you'll get the good and the bad in varying proportions.  True story.

Over 40 people purchased our game from reading this topic. I consider it at least partially important to reply here and make time to discuss with members.

Trolling is something I don't support even for other games.

That might be true here or on other communities, not with our community. I've run free browser based games with rules to protect the integrity and positivity of the game and the players and this is also true with Fasaria World. Our members prefer it positive. You can have your opinions about how to constructively help build or improve the game and community but our community is not a breeding ground for back bitters or trouble makers. Most seasoned gaming communities and sites do the same.

You may want to make up 1000 different reasons why you should have the right to and get away with just trashing a game for fun, kicks or personal reasons here or other places but I do not agree with it even as a seasoned gamer. I wrote countless reviews for video games, ran a gaming site and clans of over 250 players of each and it's always been in my character to give constructive reasoning behind your criticism. 

There were times in my early stages of gaming that I would play a game briefly and devise a quick opinion about it and then share that opinion with others. There were several games I played for a short time as a beginning gamer, dismissed as being a piece of “dung” and then running off into the midst of gamers to share my discovery only to find out that they had a very different perspective of the game, mainly because they actually spent more than one hour playing it. Some of those games I treated hastily, I returned to them based upon the constant praise of other gamers. Over time, my opinion of the game changed dramatically. Also over time and experience, I graduated from a casual player into a veteran, veteran into video game developer and realized that it is unwise to judge or review a video game without fully playing it through. Even game reviewers who are paid to review games must play it extensively even if the game wasn’t good, before writing a review. 

Most vets are not game developers, but most seasoned players are very careful what they have to say about a game, good or bad before they’ve done their full research or played a game through. All they have is their reputation, all they have is their word and their advice is gold. If a generalization is made, it is never made with a conclusive statement that would make players believe he/she has arrived at a full review. Vets advice are often timed revered by other seasoned gamers. Casual players or “new gamers” tend to do things a bit differently. They say the first thing that pops into their head and other casual gamers believe it.
 

Opinions are welcomed, it is just that I am use to constructive opinions or ones based upon experience, not hasty speculation.
 

 Question: Why no trial? This game looks decent, but I'd rather not waste $10 to find out.
