    I've got two beta keys if anyone wants them (cause I helped Beef out with his registration and used 2 separate emails). I'm probably not going to play this simply due to my lack of time. PM if you want them though.

    edit: Just gave one out, so there's one left.
    Given away both keys

    As an FYI, you didn't need a legit email for the secondaries. :P

    I tried the game out with Kouji's key. So far it seems a lot like Haven and Hearth, perhaps too much so, as it is both complicated and confusing. Not a very intuitive game, but I will keep my eye on it.

    The general idea is for it to take you a lot of time to learn, you are not 'supposed' to use things like wikis/etc, but to attempt to LEARN yourself, and in this case learning is most of the fun. I haven't tried enough of Salem to know if learning it is as fun as it was in HnH though. Then you just keep learning, learning, documenting, recipes, making charts, LP/Hr, LP/slot, quality levels you can gain, and the more and more the meta becomes part of the game, a HUGE part of it. Getting any info leaked like what quality you can produce can basically fuck you in the ass.

    Early game is pretty fun, exploring, forming parties, listening in on retards bullshitting each other, all that.

    Once you get to the stage where you can make your own (good) inspirationals en masse (they're the things you get learning points from studying) then it becomes much less fun and more tedious.

    I'm told it gets fun again once you push through that and you can just murder people but I'm not willing to make that time investment.

    I'm tempted to join beta (if it becomes available again) just because I'm Wiccan and it would be funny riding around on a broomstick.

    I wonder if there'll be "sanctioned" areas of the world where you can't kill players. I imagine new players would get their asses kicked in starting areas if they can't be sanctioned.

    No one with high-end skills will not attack newbies due they don't have anything. Really, attacking someone who doesn't have anything is biggest waste of Yellow Bile.

    Any place where I can learn more about this game? Since beta is currently closed, I can't jump right in and figure it out myself and videos are limited.

    I'm already wandering around in main world. Tutorial was confusing, but at least its a good start for basic things.

    If anyone wants my cup of poison (read: beta key), you're more than welcome to it.
