Games First has a review of Underlight, a MMORPG with a different direction than most others. In the end, they didn't like it too much:
In the end, while Underlight has a great deal of potential in social interaction, I can’t help but think that it falls short for the average gamer when compared to EverQuest or Camelot. Though a fascinating chatting environment, as a game Underlight doesn’t offer anything that isn’t equally offered in the prettier and much larger universes offered by its competition. It attempts to give a gamer an experience similar to those of the old home RPGs, driven by a living person as a game master. Unfortunately, the software itself lacks the flexibility that is essential to that sort of gaming. At roughly the same subscription price as the others ($9.95/month), Underlight is not what most people will be looking for when they turn online for their entertainment. There are elements that shine but many that don’t. Though I enjoy cheering for one of the small companies in a very large and competitive world, Underlight has to be able to show well in all areas in order to receive a good rating. Unfortunately, it doesn’t. Still, it does do one thing that the others don’t. It’s free to try. The Underlight website allows a user to download the software from the Internet, and try it for a month for free. If you’re looking for a new chatting experience, or are interested in a little true role-playing, swing by their site and download the client. There are some of you who will find it truly addictive. Their rating is 2 out of 5 stars. | | Source: Bluesnews |
