The GREATEST online game i have EVER played!, November 30, 2001
I have played this game for two years now, and I STILL LOVE IT! Awsome game! With many, MANY things to do encluding dungeons, quests for new players to the game, monsters to defeat, and treasure to be gained! The three greatest features of the game in my opinion are (1) the ability to build houses in the game where you can store your personal items, have events, or run a shop, (2) the guild system, where players can join with other players in a guild for events or to learn the game and finally, (3) the 'faction' system, where payers can join one of four factions in the land of Feluccia and are able to battle players in other factions.
This game also has a GREAT help system where Game Masters will help you with any technical or gameplay problems you may have.
The game is very fair to new players. They will have the status of being 'young' where other players or monsters or ANYTHING can't attack you, and other bonuses such as being able to be healed when hurt by healers instead of just ressurected unlike other players. Yes, this is truly one of the GREATEST online games ever created and would give it a 10-star rating if possible!*two thumbs up*

Old is New - This is a Good Bet, April 3, 2002
It is often difficult to decide on a game purchase based only on brief rants or a two-sentence kudo, however in the case of UO:R the decision is not hard; This is the grandfather of the massive multi-player online games, and it is a professionally managed one that includes story-based content, player run as well as official competition, and such a wide variety of opportunity for exclusive fun that it defies the 1K word cap here. UO represents proof to the idea that you get out of a thing what you put into it. Your efforts and your time are in that respect well-spent here! The gaming engine provides more than adequate immediate gratification, and despite the fact that the graphics are 2D, they are still awesome to behold. Put simply? BUY THIS GAME - but be warned, it is highly addictive.

2 Years of playing for me and..., December 27, 2001
Still going strong. How many other games can this be said about? I've played this game everyday (or really close to it) for 2 years and still haven't accomplished all my goals or mastered every aspect of the game.It's a deeper game than its major rival - Everquest, in the sense that individual skills are VERY customizeable. Sure there are templates that become more popular because of their effectiveness - but you don;t have to succumb to the crowds. The game continues to grow and change with only adds to the replay value. (replay is kind of an inadequate word as the game never truly ends...) Interacting with ppl from all over the world who - some are new to the game and some have been playing 4 years. (Funny how ppl are playing 4 years and complaining... :) FOUR YEARS??? Umm if you don;t like it... why did you play for 4 years?) Anyway for the older players its the closest thing to the old style role playing games that were played with dice and paper out there. Ever want to own a castle? You can (be prepared to WORK HARD for that tho), tame a dragon? test your skill dueling another wizard? just the armies fighting for control of the cities? or maybe you just want to craft a fine suit of armor or swords while hanging around the forge with some blacksmith buddies.... why don't you do all of them???? Get the game and get hooked..
