Is Project Entropia any good?
Project Entropia was a miserable thing for me. I’ve played EQ, WoW and GuildWars, and PE was the least intuitive MMO I’ve ever tried to play- it took me several hours to figure out how to move, how to kill things. I play a lot of these games, and this was just downright hard to figure out, and the landscape was monotonous during the very, very long runs to new locations. Without actual cash in the account, it’s incredibly dull to start- you literally start with nothing. I put 10 dollars in and managed to get myself pants, shirt, and a weapon, and I can’t say the game improved much – I could finally kill stuff, though! And this is not likely to happen to a son with a male character, but I’d been playing PE for all of a half an hour when a “guild master” started working a soft con on me, collecting new girls for what I’m guessing was an online cybersex brothel. And really, why not? Safe sex, real money, but that was my only significant interaction with another player for the week I tried
