Dreadmyst is a new MMORPG published by Dreaddmyst.com that has a very old-school look and feel to it. You can choose from one of four classes: Paladin, Mage, Ranger, or Cleric, which do the typical things you would expect. The Cleric heals, the Mage throws powerful spells, and the Paladin swings a sword, mace, or axe while using holy spells to deal damage or heal and buff those around him.

You can check out the decently sized map and pick up a ton of different quests that range from finding a guy’s lost book to killing a certain number of enemies, or an undead wolf, even. There always seems to be something to be doing in the early game and with easy access to fast travel, you won’t waste a lot of time backtracking to areas.

There is, however, one boss in this free-to-play delight that everyone currently struggles with. Signing into the game itself. Much of my game time has been played in separate long sittings, because it takes forever to sign in. Forget playing with friends, by the way, because the chances of all of you signing in at the same time at an agreed time are slim. The fastest I have ever signed in took about 20 minutes of trying. There are also allegations of stolen assets from Aion, but I have not been able to confirm this myself.
So, do I recommend this game? No, sadly, I can’t. Even as a free-to-play game, it is unacceptable that the ability to play is plagued by an inability to sign in and frequent server restarts, which then require you to play a game of will I be able to sign back in? This game is best avoided, at least until they address the issue of not being able to actually sign in. The lack of a queue system and having to manually just keep trying makes it even worse. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
