Shadowbane Review at Gamezilla
   

It's been nearly two weeks since we have seen the last Shadowbane review (it was one at IGN). So far, they have all been in the upper half of the rating spectrum, but seldom you found one you could call enthusiastic. Gamezilla elegantly sails around the cliffs of rating in their <a href="http://www.gamezilla.com/review.aspx?review=8612" target="_blank">review</a>, calling it "for fans only" (which isn't a bad thing by itself). Overall, the tone of their short review is positive, and they especially like the amount of detail that can be found in Shadowbane: <br><blockquote><em>A game for the serious online player who’s willing to pay for a monthly fee to adventure in what is the most detailed (virtual world) game on the market right now. Whether you choose to build an empire, or go around assassinating other players, this game has it all.</em></blockquote>

Shadowbane
   

Shadow Bane is the online RPG for experienced RPG'ers without the hours that it takes to play similar online games.

I can get a Character fron Level 1 to 21 in a weekend. If I screw up I can delete it and start again.

There is enough depth in the game so that you have to think out each character and enough choices that two of the same professions can be radically different yet viable.

The downside of this game is that with unlimited PK at high levels it will be the gamers themselves who decide how interesting the game becomes.

Right now for me its the best game out there. Fun, gives good reasons to group like AC, good character development options, not quite the leveling thread mill as EQ, and gives better reasons to PK then DAoC. ACII is fun and easy with good reasons to group but at level 50 you wonder why you did it.

My 2 cents
