Hell yeah it is! This game isn't for the mainstream typical gamer. People that play this game have to have patience, dedication, and a love for the game. Even though it's so frustrating sometimes; Like when i forget to put away my sledgehammer and walk into junktown only to get slaughtered by the guards, losing tons of precious minerals, ores, my guns and ammo book, and my tool, there's just something that keeps making me come back for more. It's the hardcore, u can die any time and loose everything, PvP everywhere atmosphere that sets this game apart from the mainstream online rpg's and keeps me coming back for more.
Kudos to the people who made this game happen and are keeping it going!
