NEStalgia

[SneakyPie]

What if Dragon Warrior or Final Fantasy were playable online with other role-playing heroes? We'd have something like NEStalgia, the newly released multiplayer online RPG that looks old school, but plays modern.

NEStalgia's creators describe their free-to-play game as "Dragon Warrior 3 meets World of Warcraft," complete with quests, "epic loot," player-versus-player action, an auction house for goods and much, much more. There's an optional subscription fee, but players really just need to download the client and sign up for a BYOND account.

Grab at the official site, if you're game.

I'll admit I had the idea to do something like this a long time ago, but with 16 bit graphics. Oh well.

Anyone want to try it with me?

Sure, I will give it shot.

Edit: Oh wow, logged on to check it out and I guess it has gotten some news or something.
With the increase of players the server is lagged and at the moment very annoying to play.

My Byond account name is GuyGarret and my character in the game is MiloWindby.

I tired it briefly. Due to the recent press it got it's VERY laggy.

Will have to try later when things cool down.
