IGN.PC has written a review of Dark Age of Camelot - with a very favorable rating of 9.0/10. Here's a bit:
Another thing that is instantly apparent when you start playing is that the game is just as accessible to casual players as it is to those who stay up all night adventuring. You can play for an hour or so at a time and still get plenty done, getting enough items to feel pretty satisfied. Many low level monsters drop armor, and money comes pretty easily.
To keep the economy strong and good items rare and valuable, there is item decay in the game. Eventually your weapon, armor, and shield will become damaged and you'll have to take it to an NPC smith to be repaired, but in time it will become useless and you'll have to upgrade.
Not only that, but there have been measures put in the game to prevent "twinking" where a player with a higher level character will give one of their lower level ones a bunch of items to give them an advantage. When your character first enters the world, they will be limited to a certain type of armor and won't be able to wear anything better until they advance a bit.
Speaking of armor, each type is further broken down into smaller categories with varying degrees of toughness. Not only that, but each specific type of armor has a different look, so people who wear leather could have several different textures on their character. |
