ETHYRIAL

Have been trying to play for 2 days now. I get 5 minutes in and the game freezes my character for no reason.

its little nice rpg lite primarly got hooked on the class with dual wielding claws next thing you know a couple of hours have gone by will definitely revisit

They're putting a lot of work in to make an actually decent indie mmo. Should give it a chance.

Looking for a great MMO with the Old School grind? Play this. Rough around the edges at times, but Devs are consistently updated to provide more in the game as well as the experience.

usage of generative ai in the process 👎

Ethyrial is an awesome little (now) indie dev mmo, that had a rough start. A lot of it's inspiration comes from the likes of Runescape. With 100's of hours worth of gathering and crafting, to hundreds of mob types and places to get your kill on. There's even a wildlands area to get your pvp on over rare resources out in those areas. As of 5/21/26, they fixed the Movement bug on zone in, and the game has gotten just that much better. From the 20+ classes you can choose from at the very beginning, you have the choice to play how you want. If that's alone or with a group of friends, It's all up to you. But it's an mmo type, grouping is always going to be an easier time for you! Note's that don't change MY personal opinion, but could influence yours. - The graphics of terrain is blocky, with a bit more polygons than Minecraft, and not all of the terrain is smoothed over from the dev transfer, so locations can sometimes be a bit wonky. - There are sometimes issues where mobs become permanently invulnerable do to leashing over terrain, the daily restart fixes this, or leaving a dungeon map and returning. - Weapon crafting doesn't account for wisdom and intelligence classes that use melee (There are drops specific to these classes, but it's not entirely the same) And sure you can use str/con weapons in place and still do near the same damage but in a pvp setting, this isn't acceptable to me. I've said my piece on their discord though. -Error on load in isn't an actual error and needs to just be waited through. Clicking multiple times after error screen further errors the login and prevents play. - From the dev transfer there are still areas of the game that feel slightly empty, or half started and have a way into them, but no way out. Making it for a fun experience in using an unstuck or rune to tp out.

Fun game, making a lot of improvements constantly. Roadmap looks good too.
