TMC Listing: Legends of the Jedi

The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Chizzel] and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.

When I started playing Legends of the Jedi two years ago it was a 
breath of fresh air in the SWR world.  The code was new and
exiciting, the playerbase was large averaging 20 players at peak
times.  It simply was the best SWR out there.  Leap ahead two years...

Now it seems the new Admins Orion and Anna have taken the best SWR on
the net, and IMPROVED it.  The code is continually updated, marking
the most significant breakthroughs seen thus far in the SWR world. 
I would not even attempt to delve into the new and exciting ideas
implemented, because I have only 10000 characters here!  

The areas, though somewhat slow in being implemented are of such a 
high quality, that it makes quantity seem less important.  This by 
no means, its a small MUD, its actually quite large,  but LOTJ has 
resisted the temptation to toss an area a week into the mix, instead 
preferring to take a month or two to build a quality product for our 
enjoyment. 

The staff though small, and exceedingly busy developing and improving
the galaxy, is FAIR, evenhanded, and user friendly.  The playerbase
has grown from the 20-30 people to over 40 on an average with a
record 68 trying to survive in the galaxy at large at one point.  

The RP is on a continuing timeline, and is very intensive, just 
shooting em up won't give you much satisfaction here. If you want to 
enjoy your time at LOTJ, developing a charachter through leveling is 
just a small part. Developing their personality and interacting with 
other characters within the MUD is essential to enjoy the full LOTJ
experience.

If you are stuck in what seems to be a stagnant mud, LOTJ is a must
for you.  Come by and check them out, they are truly one of the best
muds on the net.

I totaly agree with Chizzel! This is one of the best muds around.
The force system is one of a kind featuring many unique powers.
The clan system well, the best I've seen anywhere including pay to 
play muds. The ships even though they took out some of my favorites 
for now, are very detailed and a combat with them is just as so.

The normal combat in the game is a large improvement over the
standard SW codebase. They have so many new and exciting features
you would have to be a staff member to catch even a small fraction.
Though that doesn't mean they are out of reach of the players. The
classes are all well balanced and have a large and plentiful skill
set.

I must admit even though I dislike to that there are a few bugs here
and there, but if they are reported they are quickly taken care of.

The staff are helpful and cooperative. Also they actually read e-mails
you send to them. Unlike a good amount of other muds out there.

Chizzel is right. I've seen some of the other SWR muds that claim to
be to LOTJ's caliber. No where near it. I have been here since what
many, including myself, consider Neo-Nazi Raven's regime. Nowadays we
have the wonderful Anna and Orion. These guys are great. Stop by and
enjoy our mud!
