Comment: The Realms of Despair is an interactive text community that has been around for many years. If you love MUDs or ever wanted to delve into being part of a growing and changing world that will not vanish, will not ever grow dull or will not charge you a dime, this is the one for you. The client on their website makes it easy to learn. Your characters can be saved where they are to log in later and play again. You can join guilds, clans, orders, even sects and become part of many of the communities on RoD.

Comment: From what i've seen, this game looks awesome!, but WARNING: this game is text based (as far as i've seen)!! If that doesn't bother you, then you'll really enjoy this game. There's so many races and jobs and you can completely customize your character.

Comment: This game is set in a medieval world with races like humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes, pixies, half-orcs, half-trolls, half-ogres, sea-elves, hobbits, gith and drow; all avaliable to the player. Your class gives you an incredible degree of control over the game world, including some classes who can control the dreams of sleeping players, change the weather, enchant weapons or summon animals. Other classes are skilled at surviving in the wilderness, like the Ranger or Druid, and you can literally spend days adventuring through forests and plains with your friends, finding food and treasure and having battles with monsters. The in-game help and assistance from friendly players is simply a whole different league to other games. The people who make the game actually play it too, you'll see them all the time. This game runs on any computer with any internet connection (even dial-up!), as it doesn't need big, bulky graphics to work. I've had a lot of fun playing this game, and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the feeling of exploring a vividly created world, or is sick of having to wait through big downloads or updates to play a good game.

Comment: If you like MUDs then youll love this game. The controlls take a few mins to get used to but after you get the hang of it its awesome. I highly recommend this game to everyone who likes text-based games like this.

Comment: Good concept and game, I just cant get into MUDs. All the typing is too complicated for me. Not that i dont have an imagination or thirst for role playing, but I just cant quite get the hang of the controls/commands. Wish I could, it looks great.

Comment: A must for anyone looking for Wonderful Roleplay! Each race has their own RaceTalk channel that you can get to know people from your character s race. RP orders, Nation Roleplay. There are RP boards for Nations And for each Race to post on. So jump on! Type config +RP, do a Whois RP and start finding Roleplayers to Roleplay with! Don t be afraid to get in touch with someone to show you around your hometown or national visions!
Over all it s a great MUD, even if you aren t into Roleplaying!
