The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Numus]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
Now people on darkwind know me, and most thought i would never make a
comeback. Some, i found out, liked me throughout problems i have had.
I came to mudconnector not with that on mind, but that this mud
doesn't get the recognition i believe it deserves.
In the history of muds, some are hack/slash only and some (my friend
is creating one hopefully) just quest based muds. This mud integrates
the 2 seamlessly. For anyone who likes traditional muds, not
futuristic stuff, just mobs, weapons (swords, axes, bows) armour
(leather, plate steel, chain mail) with a great wizzing staff and a
great group of players, please check out darkwind.
Darkwind has a restrict PK system, meaning if you want to go pk you
can, but you aren't forced to tons of guilds that are all equal in
ability: some just melee, some just mental, some just magic but they
are all fun to learn...
Tons of races with their own perks and disadvantages. Quests that
challenge your mind and not just your ability to create a strong
character.
One of the more unique systems of traveling between different
'lands' or 'worlds' by means of ships that players may purchase
for a set amount of coins or buy tickets aboard ships that travel
constantly.
If you are new or old to the mud community just give darkwind a try.
The wizs take everyones request the same so if there is something you
would like to see in it or something wrong, just use the appropriate
command and a wiz will review it and get back to you about it. After
years of tinkering this mud it has been turned into one of the best
muds i have played in and I recommend it to everyone that likes to
have fun.
P.S. This mud does purchase a portal license, so if you have the
portal client and can't use it in any mud because your free trial ran
up, you can always use it in darkwind.. While in darkwind it is
registered as the full version... - Numus
