Nestalgia - The 8-bit MMO

Interesting little game. Entertaining and surprisingly more fun than I would have imagined. You can apparently make guilds and all that. Parties work just like old school Dragon Warrior games, the leader controls the party and everyone follows along behind automatically.

I actually played it a bit. At first I thought it might be spyware or something but the game is pretty cool.

It's very laggy though, and a bit clunky in the design. You can tell it's fan made. Some real developers should make something like this.

I started to DL it but all the signing up for shit steered me away.

The last is due to the fact that a week ago they had 1 server. The influx of people downloading and creating their first characters is what was causing all the lag. Its been really good so far this week.

I've been playing more of it. I love the idea, so it keeps bringing me back in. I don't know if the game will sustain itself though.
