Title: Horizons: Empire of Istaria
Post by: Tage on December 02, 2003, 01:20:55 PM
I don't know how people feel about MMORPGs, but lately I've been looking more and more at switching from DAoC to a new game called Horizons. It's a typical fantasy MMOG, but it's big selling point is that you can play a dragon. Not like a limited half-dragon or anything, a full-fledged fire-breathing flying type dragon. Anyway, I'm still on the fence about it, but I'd like to know if anyone else is interested in playing it. Here's the official site.

EDIT: I found a very good article that summarizes what I think is cool about Horizons.

Hmmm...looks interesting, but now that DAOC has a free trial I may have to give that a try.  FFXI is great, but I haven't had time to play it in so long.  But I think I'm hooked on MMORPGs...

yes you haven't been on in a loooong time.  I'm sticking to FFXI for now.  These games take so much investment time (and that monthly fee) I don't feel comfortable playing multiple MMORPS.  So let me know how you like it.
