Planeshift? Can't Post

hi,

Did anyone ever hear of PLANESHIFT. It's some weird mmorpg. I have to say that it looks very good.

I've actually never heard of it, could you review it or give us a summary?

hi,

i too have never heard or played this game. But i found this strange artifact on the web while searching for free games.

i'd have to say that the graphics are impressive for a free game.

This is what they say on the site:

Here are 10 reasons why you should become a player and a fan of PlaneShift:
  1. Planeshift is a great place to find new friends from all over the world!
  2. PlaneShift is a virtual world where you always dreamed of living
  3. PlaneShift is the first 3D MMORPG to be free for players
  4. Thanks to our open development process, the game will be expanded endlessly for years to come
  5. Planeshift is a game made by roleplayers to bring you all the immersion you need from a virtual world
  6. A unique setting, realistic combat rules, great magic system with hundreds of spells
  7. No budgetary constraints will stop development of the world or prevent the addition of new ideas
  8. You can build your house, your castle, your realm
  9. You have the option to live as an adventurer or as a normal citizen, both paths rewarded in game
  10. You can submit comments, ideas, bugs and the dev team will take those into account in future releases

The objective of the PlaneShift Team is to create a virtual fantasy world in which a player can start as a peasant in search of fame and become a hero. We will focus our efforts in the reproduction of a real world with politics, economy, many non-player-characters controlled by the server that will bring to life our world even without players connected!
We want to give FREE access to everyone, without the need to either purchase the game or pay a monthly fee. Servers and bandwidth will be donated by sponsors.
Our virtual world is persistent, and this means you can connect to it at every hour of day or night and you will always find players and npcs wandering our realms. You will be able to disconnect and reconnect again, the server saves the actual status of your character including his possessions. You will use a client program to interact with our world, that enables you to have a 3D view of the surroundings.


It has many different features also.

  • A Role Playing Game!
  • 12 races with unique traits for the creation of your character
  • Unlimited professions through a skill system
  • Original magic system with six Ways of magic
  • Hundreds of spells!
  • A huge world to explore
  • A great number of quests to test your wit and skill
  • Monsters and NPCs with good AI that produce game events
  • A world that evolves with or without player interaction
  • Create your own house or castle
  • Politics and economy
The game looks interesting. But i'm too busy with other things. I recommend you check it out.
