Funcom's expansion for Anarchy Online, Shadowlands, has been reviewed at Warcry. It's pretty favourable with a score of 9/10. Here's an excerpt:
“Shadowlands” is broken up into 7 different (I call them “Land” levels) or zones. As your progress in level and skill (and storyline), you get to progress through the levels. They range from the rich vegetation of Nascence, the Eden revisited Elysium, chaotic torn landscaping of Scheols, Underwater city of Adonis, frozen tundra of Penumbra, sweltering land of Inferno, and last but not least the final apocalyptic struggle of Pandemonium (which was NOT shown to me – to be saved for those that make it there themselves). About halfway through the tour I came to the conclusion that Funcom didn’t just release an expansion, they released a sequel. Each zone is huge in dimension - monster level progression goes up on each new zone and as you go deeper for each zone. You could easily go from level 1 to 200+ and never leave the “Shadowlands”. I was able to check out a small piece of each level except the last level, Pandemonium, and that was to save the best for last - or so I am told - and from what I have seen I don’t doubt it one bit. It may take me a very long time to get to the level I need to be at to see the very last level of “Shadowlands”, but I think it will be worth my wait, as well as yours.
