Isn't this an MMO? While Dark and Light's world is persistent, not session-based, and contains some gameplay elements, themes,.

Funny that this is a thread called 'Dark and Light' but sort of turned into a thread about Ryzom. Dark and Light does appear to be getting a little more press than Saga of Ryzom though.Dark & Light calls itself the 'largest mmorpg you've ever seen.' They have quite a lot of info on the official site ( if you don't feel like looking it up in the game list.) The idea is that there is just one world that everyone plays in, it's really big, and it's seamless. They have a pretty active community site that you can get to from the main site above.Just thought I would throw this in here since the original post was about both Dark and Light and Saga of Ryzom.

Release Questions When will Dark and Light be released and how much will it cost?We don't have a solid date set just yet. Dark and Light was initially planned to launch in Early Access in late 2016, but we decided to extend pre-EA development to continue polishing the game. We'll be announcing a solid release frame and the discounted Early Access price in the near future.Will Dark and Light feature Mac and Linux support at Early Access launch?We aren't 100% on this just yet - PC is our primary platform for the Early Access launch, but we may be interested in looking into supporting Mac and Linux once we get PC totally sorted out. Gameplay Questions What kind of game is Dark and Light?Dark and Light is an online sandbox survival RPG with heavy fantasy themes.

Velocity 2x review. Players will have the freedom to explore a massive world, master a wide variety of magic spells, tame wild creatures, and build their own settlements from the ground up.Isn't this an MMO?No. While Dark and Light's world is persistent, not session-based, and contains some gameplay elements, themes, and mechanics similar to those seen in MMORPGs, it is not an MMORPG in the traditional sense. You'll still be building up a character and upgrading attributes and skill trees in a persistent world, but due to the smaller server sizes and other nuances, we don't consider it to be an MMORPG.How does movement and combat work?Dark and Light uses third-person action-style movement and combat controls.

Both mouse + keyboard and gamepad controls will be supported during the Early Access launch.What classes can I choose from when I make a character?There actually aren't any set classes in Dark and Light. There are two kinds of experience, character experience, which determines character level, and skill node experience. As your character level increases, you can assign points to various attributes (max HP, stamina, mana pool, etc.). Skill node experience is earned by completing actions related to a particular node, such as crafting items, creating spells, killing creatures, and more.

Depending on how you play, you'll naturally level up your most-used skills, but you can eventually max out every skill, even though doing so would require a pretty sizeable time investment.Will we be able to form guilds in DnL?Yep! They're called Houses and they're pretty standard fare as far as guilds go. Any player can form a House with any number of other players.

You'll have access to a House chat, special structures and items, shared privileges on storage units and tamed creatures, and more.Are private servers available?They are! You'll have the option to play single-player or join / host a private server with custom rulesets. Technical QuestionsWhat's the maximum server capacity?Because we haven't held any stress tests yet, we haven't been able to determine an exact number.
