I just got started playing three RPG type games, all three developed by the same people, thus very similar in gameplay, yet they differ in story line and seeing how people got into the little arena My Brute game but seemed to look for something with a bit more control, I thought I'd share with the masses. :)
The first, and the one I enjoy the most because of the samurai and martial arts storyline is Katsuro (http://s1.katsuro.us/). In that one, you start as a young samurai and work your way up. There are two rankings, one in points, another in the arena, where you can challenge samurais that are just above you. The neat thing about all three games is that when you can't access it, you can send your character to work. When you come back, you get paid and you can go on missions, challenge other samurais again, or use your hard earned gold to train your samurai. I am known as UsagiYojimbo in Katsuro
The second is Gladiatus (http://s5.gladiatus.com/), in which, you guessed it, you start as a lowly gladiator of Rome and work your way up the ranks. Again, you can either work to earn gold, or go on quests/missions, buy better armours and weapons, or challenge other gladiators. My gladiator is known as FrogManus.
The last one is Battleknight (http://s2.battleknight.us/), in which you start as a knave and try to become a knight (which happens at level 15 from what I read). Again, you can work, duel or got on quests to earn more silver coins, then use those silver coins to buy new equipment or train your character. This one has a slight twist is the presence of karma. Your knight can develop positive or negative karma, otherwise known as being a good or a dark knight. They say there are no real advantage one side or the other but that some weapons are available only to one side or the other. I'd think that battles will be waged between knights on either side. In that game, you can also offer your services as a merceneray for hire, although I've yet to experiment with that. My name in Battleknight is Froggie Longsword.
In all three games, you can join or create a group where other players will join you. They call them guild in Katsuro and Gladiatus or order in Battleknight. Once again, I've not yet experienced with any of these groups since none of my character are higher than level 5 or 6 and I didn't know anyone to join a group, alhtough I think it could be fun to have a bunch of FOFCers in one group.
Anyways, I'm leisurely enjoying these games and thought that some of you might do too. The more FOFCers playing with me, the merrier it is. :)
Some of the games have more than one server/world. I linked to the servers I play in. In order:
Katsuro, server 1
Gladiatus, server 5
Battleknight, server 2
Post in here if ever sign up for one of these games.
