New member introductions / Hi - Back Playing UO after decade hiatus
« on: August 30, 2018, 05:23:33 PM »
Hello everyone,
I used to play UO on the private server Arcodia from around 2001 to 2005. I never played on an OSI server but have played on many emulators. Sphere is my favorite of the emulators because of the combat system. Unfortunately Arcodia is not back but Santiago just re-opened and that was a good enough reason for me to return to UO. Santiago is a lot of fun, one thing I wish that it did, that Arcodia did, was enforce RP. This does not mean there are safe zones, just PVP needs an RP. Arcodia required new players write an RP for their character before they were given an account (no auto-account).
To me UO is the greatest game ever made. I did leave the game to play WOW when WOW was released but I have come to realize some of what makes UO special may never be recreated. The loot system and crafting is what makes UO, in my opinion, have the best player economy of all time. Maybe EVE Online, but I've never played that game so I'm not considering it, HA!
*Cheers*
