    "Recently, I’ve picked up King Arthur’s Gold. My main complaint with the game is that it won’t let me put it down again."

    The review is nice and all, but they put INFINIMINER in Best games similar to minecraft...(honorable mentions).
    The game that started it all is now a 'honorable' mention on something inspired by it...
    Other then that people should also stop referring every block game to Minecraft or Terraria...
    The reviews are (mostly) good but *sigh*, i can't see how they base a games similarity to the graphical style.

    My all time favourite game :) Just pure epicness. So much custom stuff by the community, you could code your own stuff very easy. I spent hundreds of hours in big castle fight mods, which are exactly what KAG is now. I'm in heaven :p

    Fairly favorable video review/overview/first play from the folks at YBN (You Big Nonce). Part of a weekly indie-game series apparently.

    "Theoretically i won the game!"

    This vid has pointed out a few things to me
    1) Only listing the 'beginner' servers makes the current population seem low to new-comers.
    2) 'Beginner' RTDM servers might not be as newbie friendly as some may have thought
    3) The black screen he's forced to view for the first few seconds is painful to watch
    4) asterisk passwords are useful, lol

    I dread to think how many players might turn this game off after two minutes of deathmatch rape and never discover CTF or the zombie mode.

    It is sad, but if they are too nooby to bother if there is something else than team deathmatch, maybe it is better for us and them, that they give up the game... Deathmatch, are really confusing for newbie, the tutorial don't teach you anything about how to fight and survive, maybe, the tutorial should tell newbie also the existence of the forum. :huh?:

    I know that is dumb, some of them could became good or even legendary player. It is for this reason that i've said

    and newbie are not all stupid, but as SirSalami said, the beginner mode is really confusing.

    Making a better tutorial, the forum more visible, and more choice in the beginner server (deathmatch, unlimited life ctf...) could be a solution.
