Yes I am a UO fan , But I would like to know what other games are out there , and why they are better.
The 2 games I am looking to use as a replacement are AOC and WAR , but even then ( taken into account they are in beta still , no NDA Voilations please) do they give you the depth UO has or what other do have the large amount of content ,community , skillset?
Comment?

The new client Kingdom Reborn is close to unplayable , the graphic are fair to poor , there are a ton of bugs when it running , it crashes about every hour or more.
With the way UO is going now I dont see how the game will maintain enough players to keep it going unless you can have an mmo with nothing but bots running around in it.
So let me get this straight you have actually played for more than 15 hours on a regular shard , and have actually FULLY patched UOKR and played it for more than 8 hours in the last few onths?? , I'm guessing NO.
Besides even if UO was at , hmm , 75,000 active PAYING accounts the would = close to $900,000 a month and a little ove $10 million a year , i'm no EA finacial rep but one would think that is pretty profitable..
I think you should move on.... ![]()

I agree that if UO had allot of people playing, it would still be better than any other current game being offered up on a satin pillow.
But I also think that pre-AoS was much much better. And Pre Trammel was much better than even that because of the life and emotions, the dedications and alliances, the realism in that political regard, that it gave the game. But that's not for everyone, of course I understand that.
I have gone back to UO after several times quiting. I'm still playing it, because it's simply the only fantasy based sandbox/worldly game, even in the sad state it's in. I just can't stand to be herded around by a ring in my nose like these other games do to you.
Sadly EA seem to not want to sink any marketing into the game , in its current state UOKR is 100x better than it first release , bug fixes and patches to make the game better are coming in fast , the next expansion if released as stated last year ( not sure if will) sounds to be real cool gargoyle races , new skills , also sems based on the ULTIMA Stygian Abyss story line..
If you dont play and would like something added or fixed to make you comeback post it here:
If you are a new player or trying to get back into the game besides these boards you can check out: Stratics , alot of the players there are more than willing to help , if you cant find answeres here..
Makes you wonder if thats all UO is now a profitable training ground for future devs of EA , think about our dev cycles over the years , almost like a college degree path..
In light of the recent update which changed the effects of certain AoE powers for the Tempest of Set, what is your favourite Priest archetype class in Age of Conan?
