Attack of the Skinny Smurfs - Regnum Online Review

Cody Bye · 10-30-2008, 09:39 PM

Not all massively multiplayer online games are created equal. Unlike the tenets of U.S. civil rights, MMOGs come in forms both good and bad, and it's the duty of the Ten Ton Hammer staff to determine whether a game is worth your money, time, and adoration or not. When we first took a look at Regnum Online, it inspired about as much excitement as a wet blanket. But did the game really earn its "wet blanket" status? Or were we letting things soak up too quickly? Read the review by Eric "Dalmarus" Campbell to find out!

After sorting out the initial file problems, I assumed the rest of the process would consist of smooth sailing... how wrong I was. At one point, I discovered there were 14 instances of Regnum Online due to the patching process constantly restarting my client! It felt like Leeroy Jenkins was grabbing every ounce of processing power my system had like they were pieces of his coveted chicken.

As a long time EQ & WOW player I enjoy the simplicity. NO.. it is is nowhere as polished as either of those games, but you do get your monies worth. I won't even go into what I miss from either of those games, but that said it has it's good points. Just like the others the grinding is the worst part but it is a darn sight easier. The quests are a pain to find and not really that tough. I'm not yet into the full scope of server vs server part of the game. That being said,amazed at the people who are so critical of such an interesting attempt to provide a little entertainment for so many for so little. Gaming snobs, go buy whatever game you want and STFU.

Hehe, meh, it's a pretty crowded market these days even in the F2P arena and I honestly don't have the time to waste on a game that won't give me something unique. That is why I value TTH's reviews and still hang out here. They seem to avoid sugar coating things and if the reviewer doesn't like it then they'll say so.

Thank you for the review.
