It’s actually fun? Wow I’ve been banging my head against the wall trying to find an mmo I’d enjoy, and the only thing that was scratching the itch for me was Ragnarok Online, ah but the grind in that game stinks, don’t like it.

So we have UO where you work on training your skills that’s where the progress is on your character. And the server I play on they sped up the skill gains so you rank up faster. Normally by now I would have given up on a game due to low attention span but I’m sticking with it and making a character that can do things outside of the newbie zones. The furthest I ever got was halfway to levelcap in WoW and that’s because I was playing with a friend.

Okay enough rambling, I really enjoy this game. And I felt some achievement when I had enough gold saved up to build my cottage and now buy an imbued set of craft resistance armor.

      You can play free. There are free servers. I believe OP is playing on UOAlive.

          Well, I believe the launcher and everything totally skirt EA.

              The glass isn’t always half empty, my friend.

              I hope you get it working, and have a lot of fun playing UO, without further worry about EA.
