Actually, I think most vets are a bit envious they don't get to start now! LOL
No, not at all too late to start, in fact the content is literally more than twice what it was at launch (with no paid expansions).
There was a server merge quite a while ago, and as a result all servers are extremely healthy. Grouping has become really easy again.
There's a 10 day free trial, find out how it is now for yourself! I think you'll be pleased ;) |

Wow, those news were good news for me, almost as i could try out the game again to see if it's worth the time. Thanks for the information! |

Someday, someone will have to explain to me this whole mindset of "is it too late to start playing?" that some people get. Is the game still being sold? Is the game still online and operational (ie. not canceled)? If the answer is yes then it's not too late... |

I played the 10-Day trial, the population was very active and the game itself is fun. |

Originally posted by Talyn Well, I think in a game without a lot of alts, there can become a large vacuum between capped characters and new ones that make grouping hard, that can be an issue. |

last time I tried the trial I was able to run into groups easily, and found some very helpful people in all the groups. So I doubt it's to late to start, and especially the way is designed I don't think it ever will be to late. Unless of course there comes a time when Stormreach becomes a ghost time. |

I have played as new character in MMO's that have been out for awhile and New characters get mistreated. In some of these games so its not as bad a question as you think. I have people in WOW for example tell a new person the wrong directions to get them killed them laugh. |

Originally posted by Talyn Lets face it, some games are not friendly to new players. UO for example, it probably is too late to play the game and get much in the way of enjoyment. EQ was that way for a while until they took steps to encourage new players. Vanguard and Shadowbane are the same, at least in pvp aspect. It takes a very thick skin to deal with being griefed by twinked alts, in order to get to a point where you can compete. We play these games for entertainment, if a game is not entertaining until I hit end game, it is too late for me to join. |
