Forsaken World

Forsaken World is ok.  At its core a WoW clone, maybe a bit more to it than Allods but not much.

In playing I’ve found there’s not a lot of subtlety to the game. Holding back is not in the design motto. One could say that given an Ostentatiousness Scale that ran from one to twenty, one being Mother Teresa’s funeral garb, ten being shooting a hooker clown zombie in the face with a shotgun and twenty being this sentence; Forsaken World’s character design choices would consistently fall on the scale at places greater than 10.

My character’s hip/waist/bust ratio is beyond fictional landing somewhere in the realm of folklore. Old women tell tales of my character’s hip/waist/bust ratio to peasant children to teach them values about eating right and obeying their parents. I pass no judgement on this.

Given a quest tracker in that will have your character auto run a path to the destination, and special abilities that one shot kills everything in the area around me, the game is also a tad on the easy side. Unless I run into some sort of Charlie Sheen MOB at some point that is. In which case I may be fucked.

I’m going to keep playing this game but only ironically.
