This game is a timeless classic - it was one of the very first "classic" reiterations of popular MMOs and it made this step back to the vanilla game perfectly.

If you remember that game or just want to experience the classic feel, this is the exact game for you.

positive aspects:
+ huge and vivid community [check out the subreddit or some youtube channels]
+ the best game related wiki of any game on this planet [the detail and effort put into this database of game knowledge is absolutely insane]
+ poll-vote system for future updates
+ amazing and timeless soundtrack
+ you seek a challenge? Restricted game modes which provide you an unique experience
+ there is an existing mobile port which i would describe as one of the best mobile ports of a game available [low battery usage + low data usage]
+ You can buy pay-2-play aspect of the game using in-game gold. On a high level account you can pretty much sustain membership by normal gameplay.
+ no micro transactions
+ no buyable advantages

neutral aspects:
# many activities require low amounts of attention and offer timeframes for other activities - players tend to other stuff while playing this game in an "AFK" fashion
- i have played this game on and off for 16years now and im still not remotely close to completion

negative aspects:
- very repetitive and extremely grind intensive
- very time consuming
- free-to-play aspect of the game is restricted [you can purchase pay-2-play part of the game via ingame gold]
- many places are dominated by bots or goldfarmers
- PVP can become quite toxic

all in all it is a fantastic game and you should give it a try!
