As it stands in this beta (v1.30), RYL is pretty ... mundane. It has what could be an excellent combat system and an adequate mission system (with a few perks, like "show quest target on map"), but it's all buried in a heavy coat of Same Paint. The fighting will certainly bring in an audience who could care less what things look like – the same people who stay in places like Anarchy Online or Ultima Online – and it certainly has fun moments. The amateur feel will have to be dealt with extensively in order to counter the inevitable comparisons to more modern entries in the MMORPG arena, or RYL will simply be another also-ran that never had a chance.
