"Legend of Mir"

OK, anyone who hasn't heard of this online game, it's time to crawl out of your cave and listen up. Because for a FREE online game, it's the best I've yet seen.

er-no talked me into downloading it, and I've got to say that despite my initial qualms about a 227MB download, it was well worth it.

Legend of Mir is basically an RPG, set in a medieval landscape, where you travel from town to town hacking up monsters and other players on route, trying to get them before they get you, levelling up as you go.

The fun part is the other players. I was playing on a 56k modem, and it was a little laggy at times, but it didn't stop me becoming a 'Player Killer' (PK) within a matter of minutes when I found a sword and used it on an unsuspecting noobie. He'll be ok, he just lost a few items and started again from the last town he was in.

But it WAS kinda fun. Maybe I'm getting bloodthirsty in my old age, but now I'm having more and more battles with other online players and hardly touching the monsters. On the plus side it's a quick way to level up. On the downside it doesn't exactly get you a lot of friends.

You can even join a group of however many players you wish (SR Forums Guild, anyone?). That way when you kill monsters together, it doesn't matter which one of you deals the finishing blow, you all share the experience points. The great thing about groups is that you can go to war bigtime, not just against other players but against other groups and guilds too, all in realtime isometric view 3D.

Fun stuff.

I wanna be an elf.

Dunno why......

But as I can't be, I'll be a wizard. Unless Wookiee REALL REALLY wants to be it instead...

Those are the only classes at the moment... I have been in contact with the people who make the game and they are going to add an elf and valkyrie in soon...

What other classes are there? It would seem a good move to have one of each if we are going to set a guild thingy up....

Thanks for the offer mate, but I'm not going home 'til the weekend. I can set it up to download tonight and while I'm at work tomorrow, ready to play on thursday.

If things go pear shaped, I may well accept though....

YH - if you want a CD, mail me with your address...
