Started out a few months ago mainly to be able to experience RO again after many years not playing and a huge dislike for what renewal made to RO. To my surprise the balance changes made to the server were quite good and i had an overall good experience, with a small but very friendly community to greet me. Had some "hard" but fun times while getting some basic gears and started progressing thru midgame just now, and i gotta say, things aren't "easy" but the feel of accomplishment is real!
