The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Aztech [Player/Staff]]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
I've been on Mystic for over ten years now - thankfully, there are
very good reasons for this! It was not my first mud, but one of
several I started out with - and the only one that has stuck AND been
consistently well-administered, updated, and active. The player base
has always been very dedicated and involved with the life of the mud -
there are opportunities for players and clans to sponsor quests or
trivia contests, envision and create areas, and offer input into the
development of new features of the world.
The sheer size of Mystic Adventure is staggering - and almost every
single room is unique to the mud, courtesy of a large and creative
community of builders. Areas and quests are generally well-designed
and original, and in recent years have become increasingly complex and
challenging, some requiring a great deal of strategy and cooperation,
not to mention skill, to conquer. And, the development continues
apace, with new areas opening regularly.
Numerous other features, many of which have been implemented following
discussion among the players, make Mystic a unique and accomodating
environment - certain players serve as Mentors to newbies, certain
lead by example as Heros or Clan Leaders, and others bring their
talents to the administration of the mud as Immortals. I have seen
all kinds of players in my time here - those who play socially, those
who roleplay, those who end up getting married in r/l (that's real
life ;) ), those who go for power, those who choose to explore - and
the end result is a mud where anyone will have an enjoyable time and
play according to their individual style.
Hopefully you will get a chance to stop by and check out the mud - if
you see me, be sure to say hi.
