I really love it "three rings". I'm a big SEGA fan and that is how I got in touch with this game. I am really loving the atmosphere through this game. The music is beautiful. Gameplay wise it reminds me of PSO in the sense of that it's an action MMO instead of like any other MMO where you click and watch, push keys to do special moves etc. I really don't get how many MMO's copy this lame concept(imo). Great choice guys.
Thank you three rings and thank you SEGA. ;)
+1 for the atmosphere.
Music + visual reminds me of old games (Beyond Oasis aka La Légende de Thor on Megadrive).
Controls are simple and effective.
Ah great to see people are active around here. I'm still trying to find my way through the game but yea, it's allready taking a lot of my free time lol :$
I allready recommended it to many people including my own brothers hehe
In an interview, an SK designer said PSO was used as a reference.

You may find this reading interresting.
Dude I love you so much for mentioning Beyond Oasis! Hardly ever see love for that game, it was one of my favorites on genesis, besides Phantasy Star IV and Shining Force II. :D
But the only thing that stop me from playing is the energy! :s
I'm with you fellers. This game renewed my faith in my favorite form of entertainment.
I love it, they took the casual/micro-transaction genre (Farmville, other Facebook games) and made it into a hardcore zelda-style rpg/hack-and-slash hyprid. You're awesome OOO and Sega (now make a new Sonic Adventure Battle!).
No, seriously, make a new Sonic Adventure Battle, I will love you FOREVER.
What really gets me is the PS1 era elevator noise.
Every elevator back then made that noise.
I love Beyond Oasis too. *---*
This game is great for many reasons: (except for the mats) the loot system encourages cooperative gameplay; it's a fun, addictive, cute-looking hack and slash game; the players here seems to be nicer than others in other games; cute music, simple and attractive zelda-like gameplay... Marvelous is the minimum I could say.
Thanks for playing! I know I speak for the whole team when I say that it's very encouraging to hear comments like these.
" the players here seems to be nicer than others in other games"
So true.
Where are the ragers, the angry kids, the under-educated-chat-spamming-idiots ?
I'm lucky i can see those people again in League of Legends XD
@andrzej : that is what happened when you do a good job. Can you tell us about SK2 ?
/off topic : I'm about to get my Genesis/Megadrive from the ceiling and start playing again. While surfing on wikipedia i just learned about a new game (from 2010) called Pier Solar and i want to give it a try.
A big plus for the game: All my good friends like it too. We enjoy the time in the game every night together.
" the players here seems to be nicer than others in other games"
Found this as well.
I'm surprised that there are so many trustworthy crafters around, from my previous online experience I was super hestitant to let someone craft something for me. Not saying that there aren't the stealing type.
I send my thanks to you guys, as well as moneys! :3
Pier Solar, huh? Thats pretty amazing that people are still homebrewing genesis games. :)
also lol was Kyajin one of the guys that got scammed? if so good bump haha.
No. Or I hope not. Just bumping for irony and trying to find some alternative happier threads. (I'm in Dai Gurren as a normal member dontcha know)
What's a nicer thread than people saying thank you.
oh, you mean you passed their rigorous interview / screening / drug testing / cavity search? lucky you! ;)
Eh no. I've been from end of beta or early launch. Right before the over 100 glitch was fixed where I managed to be member #101. Since then they had to remove inactives and such to make room for new people. However, I tend to play during the mornings/early afternoon, so I see less than half of that which I should see. Though I have gotten at least one guy in from having run Tier 2 with him multiple times...I think he's better than me now...oh well =T
However, as I wrote here:

I'm still in it from random party entry mostly, I do believe everyone knows that. Though it tends to be fun working with some people who actually know what they're doing XD
now i have no free time what so ever :)
