- I used to play A Tale when it was free way back when it was just "A tale in the desert I" Since then it's improved big time with a lot more stuff to do and a lot more players. I had fun for a few weeks playing the game, upping my skills, and traveling around. As well, the community is pretty good from Day one and still through today. Nice people, at least the ones i met. Unfortunately, the game is all about skill-building and nothing else. There is no violence of much, which is a nice change.. but after a couple weeks of grinding it really gets boring and sometimes frustrating. If the game was free, I would HIGHLY suggest it, but unfortunately it isn't and in my opinion.. while a good game.. isn't worth the monthly.

- This post from the Atitd forums summarizes the game perfectly: "Yeah, ATITD is a fantastic and unique game. I'm an explorer primarily, like to build stuff, and I enjoy the occasional art test (when inspiration strikes, anyway). I really like the idea of self-goverment-- being able to pass laws that change the game world and so on, and the idea that the world is a blank slate with a few basic rules for people to work in and with systems to discover. I think it's great that there's a chemistry system hidden out there for people to discover as technology is unlocked. I like the art tests, even with their limitations. Heck, I LIKE the limitations-- pushing those boundaries is where the interesting stuff happens."

- Played the trial a few times and its a real good idea, but the only thing you can do is build, build, build, but if you like that stuff you can have a lot of fun.
