Demise was fun for a wizardry fan. Written in VB, used some god awful database structure to hold every single piece of game data including saves. But fun..

The ORIGINAL Horizons would have been one of the coolest MMORPG’s ever. It had what, 13 races or so whith playable dragons, a huge world, race/faction wars, ect. It got to be too much to put together though. Classic case of writing a check you cant cash. The current horizons is an abomination of the original.

Horizons has gone through a genesis, emerging today as a world class MMORPG providing a very stable and intrinsically interactive persistent universe for play.

Gotta love those automatic online business-speak translators.

Embrace the lightbulb. Taste the lightbulb.

In other news, the existence of another supercore team has apparently caused a space-time rift to open explaining all sorts of annihical mayhem such as wars breaking out, famine plaguing America, Valve announcing a real launch date for Team Fortress 2 and EA ~~gutting~~ buying Mythic. The return of Clhuthu is expected relatively soon so serve his Russian overlords.
