Worst MMO Ever? - Champions of Regnum 

It's interesting that they chose to use grey for their textureless models. Most Devs choose a Pink, Green, checker or other to help them notice when there's a texture issue.

"You can't just shrink the adult model and be all 'yeah that's a baby.' " Minecraft: *Intense sweating*

Combat progression... Goblins -> wolves -> skeletons -> werewolves -> tiny ferrets. Yep makes perfect sense...

As a Linux gamer myself, I find it disappointing that I've been wasting my time in Star Wars The Old Republic when I could've spent it playing this high quality and immersive MMORPG for Linux.

What shocks me most is how these games manage to last enough for certain people to be of high enough level to be able to clown on you.

"you could have the character hold up a news paper with eye holes cut out." I would... - love.- to see that in a game as a comedic version of stealth xD

The mysterious noises, BTW, sound like the kind of pure white noise you get when you play back a misencoded sample --- like it's actually an MP3 but someone told the game it was a WAV. Given the general level of quality here that might actually be the case.

Having played this game for about 2-3 hours, the takeaway vibe I got from it was "This feels like an MMO being played by characters in a movie written, directed, and starring people who have literally never played a video game before in their life, but have seen what other movies think an MMO is, and base their whole shit off that."

17:53 I like how the ghost NPC is more invisible than your character model is when you drink an invisibility potion. They clearly know how to do translucent models, yet didn't feel it was necessary for the player. Nope, that's too important, better save it for an NPC.

12:10 a robot creating soulless paintings? That's ridiculous... Haha 🌈

Executive: Build a MMO Developer: What will it be about? What will you do in the game? What visual style do you want? Executive: I told you MMO, MMO and MMO

From my experience on working on a sound engine in the past, these loud noises right after loading might be related to the game trying to play a sound cue at a specific position in the world, without knowing the position of the player (the sound engine hasn't caught up yet). In this case, the engine does not know how loud it should play this sound, so it just defaults to 100% volume, blasting sound directly to your ears.

I know you like to mention "quit moments" the 12:40 falling into water, lack of collision, and dying to fall damage only to respawn at the VERY start. THAT is 100% a quit moment. Even if I'm already invested in the game, thats generally a "log off and try again" moment at very best.

"This is a game made without love." I think it looks like a game made by a tired student's college project. So, yes. I agree.

"The game cannot decide if I need to do a go talk to someone quest or a go kill x quest so it just combined them" "Go talk to five wolves." .... I'd play that.

I love how buying the premium currency is the same experience as when you go to a bar and try to order a drink. One time I was at a fucking Applebees and I asked what the price was for a drink and the waiter just raised his eyebrows and then laughed in my face. Thats pretty much the feeling I get seeing that cash shop screen.

"you could have had the character hold up a newspaper with eye holes cut out" reminds me of Team Fortress 2. when a Spy puts on a disguise, to look like someone on the other team, to his teammates it looks like he has just put on a crude mask with a picture of a face. to the OTHER team he looks genuine, complete with a fake name above his head!

For some reason, this made me think of playing Everquest as a teenager. I remember we used to just form groups with total strangers, sit in one location, and kill enemies as they spawned. And we'd do it for hours on end. You could even leave the group to go do something else and come back hours later and rejoin with some of the same people still in it, and others having rotated out. No adventuring. No questing. Just camping one spawn and killing things as they respawn. All for experience to level up. I can't imagine why I ever did it, I could certainly never bring myself to do something like that ever again.

"You have to sit after nearly every fight to heal during the early levels." Wow, classic MUD flashbacks!

"A game with no textures. What a bold move." - Josh, 2021

So this is where all the Dobbies go when they're free.

I shit myself when I saw my post on 14:45

This game was my first mmo ever, i played it when i was 12 more or less, at that time it was called Regnum Online only, it was free with just cosmetic shop. 2 years later they introduced the loot boxes and the game start going down, every high lvl player had very broken items, and it was imposible to play. Also, at one time the max lvl was 50, but with an update, the max lvl became 60 and the company forced you to pay exp scrolls because the last 5 or 3 lvls were imposible to reach. I played during 6 o 7 years and i quit. Once upon a time, was a funny game

The whole AI painting allegory has aged remarkably well, huh

This is a game from my country, Argentina, and the only MMO we had made natively for Linux like a decade ago. It was such a joy to be able to play a game with friends on Linux back in the day and made in South America. Gaming on Linux was not that easy like today back then and we had very shitty hardware. We used to play Regnum with our laptops (with Ubuntu installed) at highschool and university during lunch break. Is really funny to see this review, I remember it better than this, but definitely the joy we had didn't let us see how many bugs it had. Anyway, I do remember it crashing a lot.

I played the game. I really liked the atmosphere of the game world. It has more soul than New World.

Nothing bad could come of this.

Me seeing any snowy bio zone. “That’s not Dun Morogh”

2:57 Heroic Strike on Warrior in WoW Classic... The worst ability in the game, especially because it manages to convince you it's worth using, but it's not. Every auto attack generates Rage, your main resource, but heroic strike empowers your next meele hit with some damage. Doesn't sound too bad, but then you realize that the ability COSTS rage and prevents the empowered meele attack from generating any , meaning it technically costs more than it states and you're better off doing literally anything else.

this game was my first MMO way back in the day. It is an Argentinian game and back then all of the global players played on the same server as the spanish speakers. Made mixed language pickup groups to hunt down ppl in pvp as a hunter. Good times. Made lifelong friends in that game. Left when the game started to monetize.

Looks like World of Warcraft if it was created by Tommy Wiseau

Actually started playing this game in 2008 and still play it a few times every month😅 it was HUGE back then. There were several Servers, which were packed. World Boss fights and pvp fights at the Forts were huge and made my Game Crash from time to time. Really had a great time, when the Game had a bigger Playerbase. The game changed a lot over the years. Around 2010 when the Level Cap was 50, the best Armor you could buy was from a Vendor (no pay to win). If you don’t want to spawn at the beginning, every time you die, you have to interact with the columns which you can find in every City

Regnum online was actually a decent MMO back in the day. Very PvP oriented and unique RvR combat.

The end game rvrvr is I think still unmatched by any modern mmo. No one really kills mobs to grind, you level up through exp from rvr kills. It's not a pve game. Mobs are just there to get accustomed to the abilities or test damage. Animation is simple but serve important function because it is really important to be able to see what buffs/abilities are on players.

"Choose your Realm and engage in the most dynamic player driven battlefield available on any MMO." Josh read this on the steam page and at that moment he knew what the next week of his life would be dedicated to.

I remember Josh once describing a game as that fake game shown in a movie or on TV when they don't want to portray a real game This game feels exactly like that to me

I remember playing Regnum Online back in ... 2007? The graphics and combat mechanics doesn't look like it's changed since. Physics hitbox were so terrible you'd occasionally get stuck and need to click on the "Die" button to respawn. It was fun back then because the only other MMO I knew was WoW which I couldn't afford. Also yes, it was one of the very few MMOs playable on Linux back then. Until Steam Proton came out I would dual-boot Windows and Linux because options used to be quite limited. Everyone was really friendly there and the Realm vs Realm mechanics was amazing. It was basically base capture which eventually unlocks the gates to the enemy's inner realm, where it turns into a capture the flag sort of game. That meant coordination and different guilds would hold different forts. Or you could join the mindless zerg mass that oftentimes form and overrun a fort. And then because it was three realms you could cooperate with the third realm only to backstab them (or be backstabed). But eventually with the level grind and discovering better games I moved on to greener pastures. Surprised it's still running, although all those technical issues is a sign it isn't quite running. PS if I recall correctly those white stone pillars with blue flames you've walked past a few times are respawn points you can attune to so you don't need to walk all the way from the start. It's probably a tutorial fault!

9:54 i love this bit, that little animated portrait feature is not only unnecessary but its so lazily done that its jarring to see out the corner of your eye. its like making a really shitty cake and trying to hide the taste with a bucket of cheap icing on top

Judging by the hitboxes on those stairs... I have a future as a map designer! Sure, I've only messed about with Hammer for a few hours and barely knew what I was doing, but that doesn't seem to be a problem.

To be fair: NPCs wandering off causing quest windows to close happened to me in WoW Shadowlands a lot! There's even merchants that can wonder out of the tiny area where their window is active, closing the trade window.

I played that game with my two friends when we where 14 i think ^^ jump was not in the game yet but yeh there was no scummy show it was just this questing and leveling experience ^^ as if you are stuck killing bores :). But the best part about the game was the unscaled pvp. Cause outside your save zone (the tutorial basically), you had the good quest but also other Players. And by looking at their name’s color you knew to run or to stand around menacingly. And then there where the Real fights ^^ best experience ever! You run with 40~80 people into the other factions Base and try to steal their Crystal. But you have no mount ^^ cause mounts are only for lvl 50 players. Those where crazy weekends! It’s a bummer that this game turned into this :/.

Gotta say, AT LEAST the ships sway with the water...I play ESO and have played GW1, GW2, and various other games and none of the boats in those games seem actually buoyant, they're just...statically there. I would love it if the big ships in ESO at various docks actually were slightly animated to appear they were actually in water...

Don't trust anything Bred says --- he's taking money from the goblins. He needs the dough.

This game feels like a lazy satire of MMOs. It introduces you to a crashing grey hellscape with disjointed hitboxes only to die immediately in the tutorial and then be thrown on to a high-level PVP island and get murdered there.

To the game's defense at 5:00 You've done combat already, yes, but it's unlikely you've met a red-named enemy at that point, since it's still the beginning. I agree that it's quite far into the beginning of the game, but it's an information you didn't really need beforehand. I think it's a decent decision to have it appear later, to not stress the player with too much information they don't immediately need

I think the loud sounds are because, when making a game in an engine like unity, you place audio players (source) in the world. These audio players can be made to play sound within distance, or global. What i think happened is that they put every audio player (source) at global position 0, 0, 0. You when spawning in are also placed at 0, 0, 0 and because you are so close to the audio player, the sounds are really loud. your position is then loaded and you are teleported to the location that was saved on the server.

Imagine judging a 14 year old game just by its starting zone and playing for what 10 minutes? I know you need to pump out videos for that sweet patreon money but please if you're going to review a mmo do it properly.

I wish this game wasn't so shamelessly garbage, i've been addicted to it since before I even started highschool. life goes on and my unhealthy obsession continues to grow stronger. Thanks for pointing out how useful the Die button is!! you're a life model

This is an old game from my country, Argentina. I played it years ago, even got to max level with a Barbarian. The game itself, it's a pretty shitty barebones WoW clone. But it was fun having a community from your own country back in the day, when MMOs were all the rage. It's been over 15 years, but I still remember many players from Alsius (blue kingdom). Drailord, Quiara, Sranko, Carpo, Oscaoburio... May your gentle virtual souls rest in peace.

I sit watching through these whilst playing wow dragonflight and think... "I wonder what he'd say about wow considering a lot of the complaints are in wow too?". Quest dialogue closing from npc walking away ✅ constant "talk to soldier and kill x mobs 10meters from them" quests ✅boosts for real money £49 ✅ mounts for money from £13.50 - £27 ✅ cosmetic transmogs for £17 ✅ bugs and places you can still get stuck ✅ generic music on loop in most zones ✅ and the list goes on. It would be good to see him review WoW and the other big ones like he knows nothing about them.

I played this when it was called Regnum Online over 10 years ago. Tried to play last week, wouldn't even start. Judging by this video, the only thing that did change over that time, is that the cash shop is even worse. I do play on Linux, and thankfully there are much better options nowadays like Albion Online (which runs natively) or Guild Wars 2 (which runs fine through Proton).

11:58 He tried to warn us

Ah yes another random MMORPG that I used to check out as a child when I got bored in WoW.

If you want to see what end game looks like for this game, it becomes a lot more interesting once you know how to play it. I post videos on this game pretty often.

You do not recognize the bodies in the water.

I played this shitty game a lot 😂😂 some players like me were die hards (no brains). They merged a lot of servers because many players left and the server was dead. I had all characters @ lvl 60. Then I had a break on the game. Few months, maybe 1 year later I went online to check it. Those mofos deleted my account due to a merge! No respect. I didn’t like it but looking back now I am happy with it haha Don’t start this game. Waste of your time.

0:51 get to character creation and... Character on screen: 👁👄👁 Josh, probably: 👁👄👁 Me: 👁👄👁

"You can't just shrink the adult model and be all "yeah that's a baby" Everquest: Josh, you've ruined your own lands, you will not ruin mine!

"It looks like piss" Well, to be fair...... So does the whole GAME....

I can't believe that Josh accidentally predicted the soulless dregs that is AI art 2 years ago. Hopefully Apollo's dodgeball didn't hurt too much.

Just trying to imagine how messy these meshes and collisions look from the map designer's perspective gives me a headache.

I played this before it became Champions of Regnum for probably 2 years. It was actually a lot of fun. Close tight community and constant RvR combat. Simple loop of capping forts but it was a great time to be honest.

For those who can put up with the failures in this game and yet still bear to play it are 'Champions of Regnum,' indeed.

to be honest we all just play the game because of nostalgia and the friends we got to know inside the game for many years, its a small comunity with now just only one server left but we still love champions of regnum the game actually is fun in the endgame when youre done farming your Warmaster and Champion Gear and you also dont have to pay2win the items from the shop they are just for lazy people but i can understand and see all your points. sadly you need many experience to get trough the starting phase

I'm not even a huge MMO fan (The only one I'm really into is Star Wars: The Old Republic), but I fucking love this series. I've also watched the Otherland series three times. Keep the great content coming

I played this game years ago when it was called Regnum. An Argentine game made by a small studio, a flawed work of love. Then they got bought by some company or another and the already so-so game went downhill faster than a cheese wheel

If you really want to play a game that genuinely chose to not add texture, try Horse Isle 3 (its technically an mmo)

In a bad way, this video with all the AI references hits different in 2024....

They should rename this game to "Champions of Rectum"

This video is hands down the funniest one you’ve done. The script was hilarious, and the game dreadful. The only I Robot reference not being an AI one, after so many AI analogies, you nailed it. I think you should immortalize your little goblin/cat man somehow. Maybe a little figure or artwork.

Wild thing that still gets to me (as much as I like it): FF14 has that exact "combat does not unmount/there is no mounted combat" design problem. Of everything it does *right*...

ey! i played this game like once every year since it started and i complained about the combat system again and again and again, the menus, the hotkeys, the bugs, etc.. its obious the developers do not care about the game. To the developers this game its like a ATM or a money machine and nothing more.. they dont really care about fun or make a polished or fun game

Can't wait for the Swords Of Legends Online episode. This one is a cheap knockoff p2w heap. Your character looks like the pre-alpha alpha of a Biomutants character.

The general look reminds me a lot of DDO, but DDO was actually pretty good and fun to play.

Another game that gives me the "Ah! This is like something created in MMO Tycoon!" kinda vibes. Happens with almost every single MMO in this series. Like, I finally understand why MMOT is the way it is, the devs absolutely nailed it.

13:31 Yeah, minecraft villagers would like to differ

Well I know you love to hate some of these games but Regnum (formerly called) was once one of the best F2P MMORPGS of the western market, with no microtransactions. You basically started the game with a texture bug on your end and never bothered to restart, thats just not trying. You also should check out the games history and not only play for a very limited time at the start. MMORPGS are games which need knowledge and time to be experienced, and you lack both. It is easy to take a short look on systems and immediately start hating them. I wholeheartedly admit, the game has gotten P2W, the shop is scummy and it has some rough edges, but it once was a diamond, especially the PVP was very unique and special in this genre. So please, put some work into the games you try.

19:20 Not only was it a loud random sound reminiscent of TV static from the 90's, but it only came out of one headphone for some reason. Incredible.

I think having the skill replace the auto attack is a good concept. More realism in a sense where you are choosing what attack to make. Though it should be designed well so that you can use consecutive skills properly.

"What do you think pressing TAB does?" Me "It crashes the game!" "It turns off the UI" Me "Dear gods, that's almost as bad."

*Josh* : "...using a skill doesn't immediately use the skill..." *Me, a WoW Veteran* : "That's an ability queue system... IT'S OLD HEROIC STRIKE!!!"

this game was kind of awesome 15 years ago though

WOAH!! Regnum!! who would've thought... I remember this game... This is the first mmo i have ever played just before i could afford a WoW subscription back in 2008-9 and for that reason I have some feelings and nostalgia for this game... I met so many cool people and was fun...Havent touched it since then, I remember having tons of fun and liking everything about it... But the p2w in this game is atrocious and even back then i remember being really bad you can't literally do anything without paying ANYTHING and also i remeber running out of quests and having to grind mobs for like 20+lvl very VERY slowly, also with this review i can see it didnt age up well at all, seems way buggier and ugly then i remember... well... it is what it is i think...

Apologies for the necropost, kinda been scrolling through your content and watching more recently. I actually have a bit of history with this game, much to my chagrin. I played this game mostly about 10 to 13 years ago, gave it a good run when it was "Regnum Online" and even for awhile when it introduced forced rest times, increased the grind, and introduced the "champion" levels system. While I don't wholly regret it, I do regret a number of things that happened later. They actually took and implemented one of my ideas/constructive criticisms to improve the game play, more or less, which was inspired by DAoC, which I played through most of my college years. The idea that you had to capture and maintain 2 of the 3 enemy keeps to unlock the ability to raid the main castle and recover the relic, then haul the relic back to your own realm's castle. The so-called "Relic Raids" For good or for worse, they implemented my idea a little after changing from "Regnum Online" to "Champions of Regnum". Back in 2010 or 2011, I was still very much into the idea of 3v3 world versus world games akin to Dark Age of Camelot. And Regnum at that time, was one of the closer things to that gameplay that I liked. Only, missing a lot of content, and involving a much, much, much, much smaller land mass. So I was kinda into it, and it was something to do. So, shortly after they implemented my DAoC inspired relic raid idea, I was then permanently banned me from the forums for mentioning a different game in the off topic section (I brought up Star Citizen). They claimed violation of ToS, and it was a perma-ban on my first offense, I never even received warnings from the mods, and I wasn't the type to stir up trouble. To this day I am still bitter about that nonsense, especially when other players also mentioned other games, some even within the fantasy MMO category, without so much as a warning. I mentioned a space sim that wasn't even an MMO yet. Several players vouched for me, and got in touch with the head mod, but they were basically "yeah no." I could still play the game, could still interact with friends, didn't get flack from anyone in the chat. But for whatever reason, they permabanned me for mentioning an obscure in-development barely alpha game in development. And so I left, and didn't really look back. In hind sight, maybe it's for the best as the whole project kinda became a bit of a shit show and they did have some internal issues they were dealing with to keep the whole thing barely floating while also trying to grow and train new dev team members to keep the thing from burning to the ground. Maybe they were scared of me and my potential for damaging the game's reputation by launching a number of constructive criticisms. Maybe I had more put together comments and constructive arguments than I realized. Don't know. Don't really want to know. Maybe they had too much hubris and didn't want to admit to implementing one of my design ideas/taking and implementing an idea from a player. Though, in fairness, at that time back in the 2010's it was the only MMO, and one of the only larger non-mobile games out of/in Argentina. They didn't really have a thriving game dev industry. Also, I do know a lot of issues internally with their small team happened after their lead engineer left the team, and they were basically doing everything they could to keep the whole project from going belly up as they had to train new devs/coders and only the previous lead guy ever truly fully understood the systems they had developed. Pretty rough stuff. I can kinda understand what they were going through, but I won't defend them. Take the game at face value, because that's really all there is to it.

Your humour has me in stitches at times... the analogies are just so articulate, yet obscure. I have no idea how you come up with them.

I have played this but I have 0 memory of it at all. I found out a few weeks ago, i got signed out of my steam account; I hadn’t used steam much at all and couldn’t remember my login, and the only login I could find was an account I had linked back to 2013. I don’t even remember GETTING steam, but when I logged in the only game there was champions of regnum Didn’t touch it I just removed it from my steam library, but I looked it up on RU-vid to see if there were any videos on it and of course there’s a worst mmo ever about it haha

I'd still like to see Digimon Masters Online in this series at some point.

Goblins. In boxes? Quick! Where's Artix Entertainment?! Reminds me of Earth Eternal as well. That cash shop. No no no.

Nowdays its really bad... Fuck it even then I never play it that much. But the game still Is a big achivement ok its own. It was Made in Argentina, a country that ay the Time didnt had a Lot of software developers and it was the first big MMORPG Made here (and still Think Is the only one). That doesnt fix they its a poorly designed game with a awfull cash shop even at the Time (this game make me lear the "you never going to get enought Fake money to buy what you want" rule only looking at the shop). But that didnt stop People to turn it into a big success here. You dont know it, but at the Time, paying subscriptions un USD was hard and expensive. So People didnt have a Lot of choises... Thankfully nowdays International Crédito Cards are Easy to get and almost everything have regional pricing. But those were wild years for MMOs here....

"Baby versions of things look different than adult things" .....LIES!!! My Aerith minion looks exactly like my rule34 Aerith minion! *scoff*

Wow, the coloring system for enemies and the PvP map layout totally scream DAoC (specifically DAoC battlegrounds) to me. Anyone else? Also those quick bar icons feel very DAoC'y.

Longtime Regnum player here. This review is sad for me because you highlight all the true and worst parts of the game. I'll compare Regnum and classic WoW as it is a well known old school MMO PvE leveling: Regnum 4/10 WoW 8/10. Leveling is WoW's strongest aspect. both in RO and in WoW leveling is a grind and a slow process, but in WoW it feels much more rewarding. It always feels you're moving towards a new goal (getting your lv40 mount, obtaining a specific dungeon quest reward...) PvE instances: Regnum 3/10 WoW 7/10 Regnum has few instances and they're mostly max level. They're good for what they're worth, but they're not an integral part of the leveling process. That is not the case for WoW. PvP open world: Regnum 8/10 WoW 7/10 Regnum's open world PvP is something else. You learn to keep your eyes open and to be paranoid while leveling in the danger zone. It's inmersive, and there's daily quests about killing a given number of enemies, which encourage players to seek PvP. In WoW you're either the agressor or the agressed, but it doesn't feel like that much of an interactive experience. There's no weight other than "this asshole killed me while I was questing". In RO you know the other guy has no ill will towards you necessarily, they're just questing and you're their mob. PvP multiplayer objectives: Regnum 10/10 it's a crazy good inmersive experience. The class balance is specifically aimed towards this specifically. It's not that all classes are balanced 1 to 1, but that they each serve a specific function. The warlock is the AoE nuker/disabler. The hunter can track down enemies, and make allies invisible for ambushes and tactical play. Knights are buff machines and meatshields, the barbarians are the highest DPS class, and so on. WoW 4/10. You're instanced, you have a clear goal, the same starting point, you queue up from elsewhere in the world and get teleported. That really busts the inmersion: you know you're in a minigame, so to speak. An instanced experience. In Regnum, that *is* the game. You want PvP? you ride on your mount to the place where people are fighting. You do your darnest to survive and to save others because it's a long walk back from respawn. The fight *means* something, it's not just to farm honor points or to reach 1600 points before the other team. The PvP aspect doesn't feel disconnected from the gameplay, but is it's core. Realm vs Realm: Regnum 10/10 WoW 2/10 With RvR I mean how the game feels like you're a member of a faction, with a common goal, and the same antagonists. In WoW the best you'll find is a capital city raid, which doesn't happen often and they don't really accomplish much. In Regnum you must go towards a bunch of steps, and fight a lot against another intelligent people who try their best to prevent you to enter the "safe" zone of their realm, where you can try to kill their king, or just kill everything on sight, or aim towards the biggest RvR reward you can get, which requires you to do this at least twice, once for each enemy faction. It's very rewarding to pull off. On the topic of realm vs realm, the game is not two factions but three, which causes a lot of interesting gameplay choices. You'll sometimes find yourself getting killed by the red faction only to have a random blue squad join and save your life. You can work together, or just kill everyone. top notch. Regarding the pay to win aspect of the game, there's less truth to what the video says on the topic. The EXP scrolls sure are nice, but you can quest all the way to lvl 48, maybe lvl 50 out of max lvl 60. By then, you can just level to max just by joining the war and playing the actual RvR enjoying your way to max lvl. Mounts are cosmetic. The cheapest one is not expensive at all and it goes just as fast as the 130 dollars one. You can also buy them for gold, so F2P are not at a disadvantage Lootboxes can be iffy, and the devs have gone on record saying that's not their preferred design philosophy but that it's needed in order to keep the game running. That being said, all the loot in the game is tradeable for other players, so there's nothing preventing you from buyin a mid-tier upgrade, farming some more, then selling that mid-tier upgrade and buy a better one. I hope my love for this game can be seen through this post. It's a hot mess, but it's a beautiful hot mess once you get to know it as the jewel it is.

I played that game for about a year before trying wow and I still remember it with respect. Its from my country and I was suprised not to have experienced any of the things you have. Must have been bad luck. Although I know there are better choices than Regnum, I still had a blast back in the day with my friends and have had no issue. Plus the music is top notch. Anyone that has ACTUALLY tried this game for at least 3 months can say the same. The company of this game isn't your good ol amazon or blizzard. Saying this game *FROM 2007* is "the worst mmo ever" is such a big disrespect and honestly I like your videos but this was just a really bad experience on your part which sucks but doesn't deserve the bash at all.

I know it's been two years, but that UI and character box with the health and mana looks like it was all ripped straight from WoW.

This was my very first MMO. I played it with my friends back in 2007 when it was just Regnum and was mostly in Spanish. The game is a grindfest. It is a PvP centric game, the reason why people give praise to the Realm vs Realm aspect is because that's the main gameplay and because it's a poor man's World vs World from Guild Wars 2. But the PvE is mega lacking. It's a grind fest that has you resting every 3 fights or less the higher level you are. Eventually the quests stop and you are stock grinding levels until eventually you out level everything in the PvE area and have to grind in the PvP zone. A lot of things seem to have changed. For starters, there use to be no quest to go do PvP at low level. In fact, you only got a quest to do PvP at level 30, which was to go kill players and was the only quest you could get, but at least you were not asked to do this at the beginning of the game. Also, you used to be able to distribute your statsbupon leveling, it wasn't automatic, and you could enter a command to reset your stats and skill points. The game is also mega unbalanced. Archer classes used to have to buy arrows, meaning that Archers had an inherent disadvantage to all other classes, and since they couldn't get any other weapon, running out of arrows meant you couldn't attack. Mages however had almost the same range as Archers but without the limits of arrows. The game did have World Bosses. Each Realm had 1 world boss and there was another at the RvR area. Only a couple of the players who helped kill it got any loot, most people would get nothing from killing them. Loot also scaled with your character's level, meaning that if had a mid level character and got lucky enough to get loot from the world boss, congrats, you got mid level gear that is worse than things you can buy from vendors. Not to mention that arrows are also possible loot, you could get special magic arrows that did almost nothing different, but only 5 arrows from getting lucky at a world boss. The Realm vs Realm system used to shine with the Invasions system. Basically, each Realm had 3 gems, if a Realm conquered most of the castles in the RvR zone and held them for hours, the other Realms would be vulnerable. When vulnerable, the Realms could get their borders attacked and players from another Realm could invade, this was the only way to play in another Realm's map. The goal of an Invasion was to find and steal as many of the Realm's gems as possible. If a Realm managed to get all gems, they could take them to a shrine in their own Realm and summon a golden dragon that would grant the entire Realm some sort of boost, choices where between xp and gold boosts. Once the boost is claimed, the gems go back to their respective Realms. That all sounds cool, if not for the fact combat is tedious, leveling is a pain in the ass, everything is pay to win and could even feel pay to progress at times. It used to have a good community back in the day, but it seems that had ended. Oh well, I still have some good memories of it but mostly because of the people I played it with.

Sometimes I play the champions of regnum, the good thing about it is the hunts and the war of kingdoms in forts

I know it isnt free and its still in perpetual early access after a decade but I wish for a review of Project Gorgon. The only MMO that lets you play as a pig, make out with bards, and vote on poetry. lol

21:00 regarding the city's theme, it makes more sense for it to be epic considering that danger CAN get inside, that's the whole point of pvp in having another realm invade yours. This game is unfortunately made with the realm vs realm system in mind, which you only get to experience after 100 hours or so. And this gets even worse once you learn that 60 is the max level and the quests end at about 45 or so, so the final levels can only be achieved by grinding monsters.

BEST MMO EVER AGUANTE EL REGNUM PA 🔥🔥

“Everything is the worst mmo ever watch my videos so I make money to be negative about an entire struggling but once great genre”. I started watching you in your first new world video and then you really ran with this type of video huh ? I’ve got to unsubscribe because I just don’t like seeing your feed be negatively homogeneous titles 24/7 ; bro like really? You’ve had years to add a surprisingly cheerful spin to like even a handful of video screens or anything different or exciting. I don’t want to be miserable all the time🎉. I just want to speak the same language as you; to tell you that your video would be more interesting even with some or as much negativity, whatever you’re feeling for real, you be you; if you like walked us into the negativity surprisingly or something instead of living in it and advertising it because I’m not even interested tbh because I always know what I’m going to get it’s not even exciting negativity it’s just being negative for negativity’s sake and beating down a genre we all used to enjoy during these difficult times in the world for EVERYONE 🎊. You be you but honestly I’m concerned to see anyone make a living doing this same video for this long and wanted to let you know how I felt 👍🏻 you don’t have to live that way if you don’t want to.
