Review

Dark Ages of Camelot is a fun game but a little confusing at first.  You will find that people will be very helpful during the game and help you make progress with your character when you are a beginner.   If you get tired of killing the monsters, the multiple servers Mythic has setup allow you to battle people from other servers. They just simply named it "Conflict among the realms."

You will be roaming through three large separate realms. Though they don't look too different, you'll find that each area offers something unique, and you'll have fun going through them, progressing more in the storyline and acquiring new items and challenges. The three levels are: Midgard, Hibernia , and Albion.

Midgard is a land of lakes and wide slow rivers full of snow-melt, it is home to four of the most diverse races found in the three Realms. Norsemen; humans who make themselves at home in these snowy wastes, short but resilient and tenacious Dwarves , huge lumbering trolls, and lithe dexterous Kobolds.

Hibernia is closest to nature and magic of all the Realms, brings a potent ability to channel for forces of magic and unleash its destructive force on their enemies. Human Celts and the almost-giant Firbolg live in close harmony with forest, glen, and all nature's creations. The Otherworldly beautiful Elves, small mischievous Lurikeen, and sleek magical Sylvan harness the power of primal magic.

Albion , from the rolling hills of Camelot to the mountainous peaks of Snowdonia, Albion is through and through the land of Arthur . Forged from his iron will, paid for by the blood of Knights and commoner alike, Albion encompasses the ideals, the laws, and the heritage of its most famous King. The people of Albion are a mostly homogenous lot - sturdy Britons, hulking Highlanders, graceful swift Saracens, the tall intelligent Avalonians, and the small mysterious Inconnu make up the different races in the Realm.

Character creation is done well with lots of great customizations, job and class selections. You'll have several different races to pick from, male, female, basic classes, up to more specific specialties. There are countless possibilities on whom and what you can be, and it's easy to start off because you'll be invited to guilds almost immediately. Though you probably won't learn all the game's complexities right away, you will figure things out quickly enough. If your die hard about these kind of games, you'll definitely be putting in the hours to learn this game inside out. The game emphasizes organized group fighting, because it's not easy to go out and solo, especially since the death penalties strongly discourage it. The game isn’t a totally new idea just because the game has some aspects in it that you have probably seen in other games but it is still a strong game that will keep you adventuring for hours.  

Dark Age of Camelot is a great game. It's solid and does a great right. It's a vast world, with so much in it, it will consume it’s not a kid game you can play casually. You've got to put in the time for your money, but its well worth it. Sure, it can get redundant at times, but what game doesn't? There's a whole lot to do, and a whole bunch of characters to play, with tons of variants. It's a good environment, excellent team play, and difficult enough to keep you on your toes.
