Wizardry Online is now De-Initialized on Steam

[Freyar]

Sad.. While the login and stability problems certainly are offputting, I can't help but feel a bit disappointed. Hopefully it can come back in a few days.

Not like this game was scamming people of money like WarZ, curious as to why it was removed for the most part, unless it really was just because the servers weren't ready for the rush of people and the 'connect' duration was not looked at well

Strange, I only logged in twice(today) but both times it took me about 5-7 minutes till 'connect' evolved into 'choose the server'. Did steam really removed it just because servers can't handle all the players?

[OldGameHermit]

The game was removed at the request of SOE. Too many users overloading the servers. Removing from Steam is probably a temporary bandaid until this gets fixed.

Got the game, haha. Was disappointed about the servers being offline at first, but I got up 6 hours ago and it's been online ever since.

I've been at the game for around 4 hours, it's beautiful.

This is nearly as much a joke as War Z

It's funny, we only had about half the server filled during peak hours. It was at 25% before steam.
If the server cannot handle half its capacity... that's pathetic.
It's a good game though, second dungeon had some creative puzzles and traps, but the servers are pathetic.

Man.. people really do love to use extremes on the internet. Pathetic, disgrace, horrible, etc.. It's not that big of a deal.

As far as SOE asking Steam to remove it, is there any evidence of that?

It's not there as far as I know. Try recommending the game if you have it. You can't.

The SOE asking them to remove it part; They probably did, I don't think Steam would just remove it.

Also, I 100% agree with your first sentence.

ive been able to get in multiple times this morning with around a 5 - 10 minute wait each time. though i do get lag every now and then for no reason.... every other game im fine

[Freyar]

Reportedly, SOE disabled it while they get new hardware in.

this might be a good game to play, but i ain't feeling it, the animations and graphics are a joke and i really hate animes so the moment i saw the anime style i just stopped wanting to play it

Then I suppose the game isn't for you. Hopefully you'll find something that suits you.

I think you mean to say the Japanese influence rather than "anime". Considering that this game was developed originally by a Japanese developer, it probably isn't for anyone that isn't a fan o Japanese culture.
