Got into beta yesterday morning and was alrdy playing around dinner time.

Atm the game is VERY rough but you can craft, gather ressources, melee, cast spells and also kill other players for their loot. Every so often I'll get desynced and have to relog before I can continue killing stuff. Magic is WAY overpowered as you don't need regs to cast and the dmg/range is more than sufficient to kill most of the mobs I've encountered so far. Make a character with heavy armor and 4 spells schools and you're set

The UI is God awful horrible, there's no System/Options menu and the overall feel of controlling your character and moving it around is very rigid.

I will says this tho - there's a LOT of potential in this game, like a mix of UO and Darkfall, but so far there's no real fun as it's just a tiny, tiny, tiny(!) sandbox for testers to tool around in.
