This game is like Ultima Online?

It's like a spin-off, made by one of the UO developers.

I played a LOT of UO on private servers a long time ago, is this like that?

Edit: Figured I would just ask, any ABCUO players from like ~'03 out there?

I don't think there is a skill limit like there is in UO so its more like UO + runescape. I played a little bit of UO outlands, I think they had the skill limit set to 700 but, I don't think anything stops you from doing all the skills in AE. so in that regard its more like runescape. you have 4 main stats and you can only really over cap 1 of them I think. but I think you get enough skill points to max 2 of them. strength, dex, intellect and constitution. whichever of these stats you max out is going to determine what you're 'good' at. while ofc melee characters do str, rangers, dex and caster int, there are other benefits these stats have on other skills in the game. taming pets and the leadership skill for example, the stat determines the types of creatures/monsters that you can tame. str = humanoids, dex = creatures/bears/spiders etc and int = undead/demons. they also have passive benefits on tradeskills.

I played upto level 23 or 24, I kept crashing to desktop though, usually when picking up missions. which seemed to be the fastest way to level, although I would get part way through a multi part mission and the game would crash and the mission disappears. spend 1hr walking around and have the game crash and get nothing.

The above post is correct with regard to the feel of the game, shares many similarities, but total skills are not capped (you could be 100 in everything if you choose to do so). Tamed pets also don't persist and grow/level with you, there's no bonding system. At higher level there are some pets that are summoned that make things a lot easier than dragging yourself to the spawn location with a taming whip to get another of that monster.

Yeah. Just started playing it and you can totally see the resemblance. Love it. Wish I had found out about this game when it was new. Joined the pvp server cause it had the most players. PvE server had the second most. I assume PvP is where the main game is meant to be played, yeah?
