Korean MMO brought to the west by Trion (Rift, Defiance).

Free to play with a cash shop. Doesn't seem to be play to win.

Has anyone tried it or will anyone try it?

Haven't tried it yet myself, but will check it out when it's release.

Release day 16/9 (9/16 for those who prefer the strange notation).

I've heard of ArcheAge a few times before but never actually researched into it to find out more.
Will look into it shortly though and maybe give it a go after it releases sometime since it's free to play and all (assuming I like what I see ofc). Sep/Oct/Nov is jam-packed with new releases that I have already pre-ordered and want to play day one however, so I'm not sure how much time I'd be able to give another MMO inbetween all of those, even if I did really like it. That being said, the fact that it's f2p would be a big plus in that case as wasting subscription costs & gametime wouldn't be an issue. (I'll be waiting a bit before I reactivate my WildStar sub for that reason)

Let us know how you find it once you've had some hands on! :)

The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I've played AA since alpha and it is a good game with lots of potential. Looking forward to the headstart next Friday and the hopes that the changes that were implemented between alpha and live don't affect the game too much. Also hoping that getting plots for farms/houses is much more attainable than it was in alpha.

Won't get on the prestart, but will try to give it a try at release.

Selling my apartment so the pre-release time is a bit full already and will probably be a few days late depending on when I can get the gaming rig connected again after the showings.

I seem to recall hearing about ArchAge years ago, has it really not released yet? Unless I'm thinking of another game...

"ArchLord" perhaps?
I had the same thought when I first heard of ArcheAge but methinks I was mistaking it with the above. I played the beta of that many moons ago heh.
