I have been trying to get in but it looks like the patcher is down. Game looks like the spiritual successor to Ultima Online. Hopefully I will get a chance to play some this week.

Update: After DAYS of downloading and re-downloading the client and patches, I have given up. I finally got it to patch to the correct version and what do I get….Invalid version, please re-install game client. I GIVE UP! I have played plenty of buggy game beta’s but this might be the worst.

If you have the time and energy, it looks like there is an interesting game once you get past the patcher but for me I am done!

As a Gencon newbie…..I did not know what to expect on my first venture into the abyss know as Gencon.

I decided to drag my wife along to check out the lines last night. (She was afraid….very afraid)

Suffice to say, I was blown away by the number of people in line. There were hundreds of people waiting for their badges and maybe a thousand more wandering around. The lines looked like they were taking about an hour to process so I decided to grab some dinner and come back later. (I hate waiting)

I came back around 8:00 and saw that the lines were not much shorter and at 9:00 they were shutting down if you had a badge or not…..so much for my plan.

This evening I might try again. Wish me luck!
