If silence is golden, then you must be really poor. ~Lazer7

I have read many of the forums, read the reviews, and even did some research on the web. This game has not got the attention from many in a positive manner. What gets me more, is it is hyped better than many games that are loaded with good comments. Perhaps this needs a little more looking into.

 If you put a ten, please tell us why. I know there is a lot of us that are really wondering what makes this game a 10.

Clearly you haven't noticed that many of the hypers have 1 post, comment in broken english, and are from China. Really looks bad on mmorpg.com that they allow this to happen.

Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
Waiting for: Jumpgate Evolution, Earthrise, Fallen Earth, anything sandbox.

Yup it's ridiculous , most posts about this game are payed employees of said game. It's been going on now ever since it got it's on forum and place in the game listing.

What's needed is a way of stopping one wonder posters from actually hyping a game...I dunno maybe there should be a requirement for using the hype function like say having 10 posts under your belt before the hype meter is usable or make it so you cant hype a game until you get two stars in your rank.

It is about time something was done because it has gotten out of hand and I can safely say SOL isn't the only game that's being over hyped.

Don't know if you can run it?

If you ask me the Hype meter is broke anyways, or controlled by mmorpg.com. How can all the games have near the same rating? Something just isnt right about it.

Is there a bot plague going around or is it just me?

I realy dont know how the hell a game like this can be hyped at 8.37...honestly just by looking at the screenshots it looks like somethinb back in the days of realmz....or the original zelda... god bless that game it was awsome but still. today its all about graphix,content, and gameplay... just by looking at this game it should have MAYBE a 3.5 ...seriously
