Tabula Rasa: MMO Gamer Posts Impressions of Tabula Rasa

MMO Gamer has posted their impression of the first 10 levels of Tabula Rasa. What is their impression you might ask? Well it's not good. The reviewer has some real issues with the game.

It was the heady days of last week, and I had just finished installing the client, fresh-faced and eager to slaughter every living thing that moved. Upon reaching level 5, I picked Soldier as my second tier profession (the tier system is something we'll go over in the proper review of the game), dropped some training points into Machine Guns and purchased one from the vendor, as I've always been a fan of them in FPS games past.

Laying eyes on my new acquisition, a friend of mine, who had been playing the game longer than I had, asked, bluntly, "Why did you buy that thing?"

"They looked like fun."

"You shouldn't have specced machine guns," they scolded me.

I couldn't see how dispensing hot lead more expediently in a game that revolved around killing things could be a bad thing, and asked for clarification, "Why not?"

"It's two credits per shot. You'll go broke trying to keep it reloaded."

"Are you trying to tell me that I can't afford to have fun?"

"Pretty much."
