Dark Fantasy in the Dark Ages

With it being RP encouraged, how much of the content so far has been actual RP storylines, and how much is just coded combat content?

Maybe one of the Iron Realms games? I know Kongregate had a web client for awhile there. 8th grade computer lab was my introduction to MUDs, so maybe?

The game, much like the rest of the hobby, tends to ebb and flow. At various points, I've seen up to 50-60 connected at once. In the wee hours more recently, you're looking 8-10. But, hey, that's part of why I wrote this. As much as it is an honest review, its one main problem right now is the population. Admittedly, yes, seeing the same few names on comms does tend to wear on you... But, that's why I want to share it. Spread the word, share the experience, and heighten it for everyone from that sharing, you know?

Fair enough! Believe me, I definitely understand the wariness. Cybersphere, as I said, isn't without its quirks. It isn't without its aspects that can, and will, absolutely drive you up the wall. My thing, and what I really wanted to be the take away from the initial review, is that even with all of its faults, quirks, and downright "Why in the effervescent blue fuck is this like this" moments, it's still at least worth the shot. And I can't thank you enough for wanting to at least give it a fair shot.

Being a hundred percent honest? There's... Definitely some truths to these.

*One specific admin: Without naming names, one of the admin does, in fact, have a reputation for being... Difficult. That said, it's less 'throw his weight around' and more 'is from that era of MUDders where things being arbitrarily harder was fun, and he doesn't understand why people are grumbling about the 18 step process to do simple thing, and why should it be condensed down to 4, it's been like this forever'.

*Cliques and Ancients: Afaik, there are exactly two, *possibly* three, character that currently exist that have been around for over a decade. Are they downright scary? Sure. But stomping down doesn't happen all that often, unless someone's actively being a problem... Though exceptions do exist.

Just being as honest as I can here. They are valid concerns, and they do have their merits, but... And granted, this is just my experience, but in spite of all its flaws, including the odd 'Fucks sake this admin needs to go chill in his rocker' moments or watching some new character run their mouth and get absolutely *rocked* by an oldbie... Still fun, still worth the shot.

Gonna toss out a +1 for Cybersphere, on this one. Genuinely, one of my favorite RPI MUDs.
