A Mystical Land Review

Overview

First and foremost  this game has a great concept. It lets the players do pretty much anything. Now that being said, to start players out it puts them into a tutorial area that only covers a minute amount of information. What I mean by this, is that it has many different areas where it teaches players about the different aspects of the game but only has quests and information for half of the things there. It shows you how to use an anvil to craft things but it does not show you how to shear sheep. The quests do not follow any kind of ordering to make sure players cover all of the areas there. So not only does it have little information, but it does not make sure the players learn what is available to then. Even after the player is out of the tutorial and makes their way to the fairgrounds there is little to no direction for players. This doubled with stability issues such as lag, server timeouts, and connection crashing makes for a very frustrating experience that will undoubtedly make players not want to even bother with the game.

Fixes

In order for the game to be more apealing to the player base, the networking issues need to be fixed first and foremost. Lag is one the most unberable things to deal with in any online game world. It makes players want to rip out their hair when, for no aparent reason, one game out of many plays in slow motion because it refuses to have a stable connection.

Only after the stablilty issues have been taken care of, the quests should be more structered to move the player from point a to point b. This will ensure that the player learns everything in the turtorial area while at the same time the feeling of being lost or confused will disappear. This ensures that the player wont just sit around a quit and makes sure that the player knows where to go when they have finished in an area.

Conclusion

Again, this game has a great concept but unless the stability issues are fixed and the quests have a more general direction to them I would not consider this to be a great game.

TALLIED SCORE!!!!!! (drumroll please)............................... 4.50/10!!!!
