The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Jesmin]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
I have been playing in the MUD for nearly 8 years now. In that time,
I’ve had the opportunity to glance over thousands, sample hundreds,
and seriously considered dozens. Only a select few have had what it
takes to truly make me feel as if I found an online home. Shadow Siege
is one of those places.
After only a few weeks of playing, I feel as if I am already an
integral part of the world and developing story that we, as characters,
weave together. This may or may not be the case, but as we all know,
it is the feeling of being important that matters, not the actual
importance itself. A MUD that can take new players and quickly
incorporate them is a rarity and not something that should be
overlooked.
I won’t get into the features and code aspects of Shadow Siege,
anyone interested can look that up fairly easily. What I hope to
convey here is the strong sense of community and the vast potential
that is available for both established players and newbies alike.
While the MUD is still Beta, this is not a bad thing in the least. The
immortals on Shadow Siege are some of the most accommodating and
helpful I have ever experienced. They truly are trying to make a game
based on the desires of the players, not only their unique vision of
the game world. I urge anyone looking for a new cyberhome to check out
Shadow Siege. You won’t be disappointed.
