Horizons: GameZone Previews Horizons

GameZone Online, "Your PC and Video Game Connection", released a new preview this week on Horizons. This very informative preview gives us a small glimpse into the beginning of a character's life in Horizons, and touches on some of the core aspects in the game. Below is snippet from the article:

[i]As players enter the realm with not the best of clothing or weapons, it is imperative to level up to better equipment. While you may find some better armor and weapons available, you do have to have a high enough skill level to use them. The general starting routine is, once you have selected a class and trade, to hunt, collect resources and then find the crafting station to refine the resources. Experience is accrued as you go. You can hunt deer, skin them for the hides, then tan the hides into leather strips in order to make leather-based armor once you have acquired that skill.

At each level, new skills become available. For some, you will need to see your trainer. In addition to general hunting, you can pick up quests to kill so many of a certain type of mob. This results in better rewards from your trainer.

[/i]As you can see from the small sample above, this article has some great information about Horizons from the beta perspective. I know you're dying to read more, so head on over to GameZone and check it out!
