Title: Technical loser
Review: Yes, Asheron's Call is the best of all on-line RPGs, but that's like saying I'd rather have my toes chopped off than lose a leg. You never get a chance to love the great features in this game because of all the snafus. Servers constantly go up and down, even with good DSL service it became hard to hold a connection, be prepared to reconfigure your computer to get the thing to work, and most of all LAGS, LAGS, LAGS!!!!!! In the towns you can walk two steps, lag for 5 secs, walk 2 more, wait another 5 secs, etc. It all gets to be particularly irritating when these glitches appear during combat. Whoops, you're dead! Whoops, where am I? Maybe in 5 years the technology will have advanced to the point that all of this will work. But for now online RPGs are simply an exercise in frustration.
