I just started playing Shadowbane with a couple of my friends on the "wrath" server. It seems pretty fun so far, but we'll see how end game turns out. Basically this is an MMO that didn't quite take off and eventually it became free. Try it out if you have some time. Hopefully it's good and hopefully we have a nice population to play with.


In addition, those who wish to try out Shadowbane for the first time will also be able to. All you have to do is create a new ubi.com account and then click on Add a Subscription, and you will have free access to the lands of Aerynth! This is not a Free-Trial subscription and it will not run out in 15-days. This is completely free!

The page that tells you about it being free.

I played it at launch with one of the bigger well known Ubah guilds. It was kind of fun at the start. But travel and then maint upkeep costs were sick. Combat left alot to be desired to. But it still was ahead of its time with buildings and some of the best class\race combos ever.

it never took off because it had interface issues, lag and ugly graphics.

I was in Beta for Shadowbane, and the interface was atrocious. The thing that interested me the most about the game was being able to play as a Minotaur, but the game just didn't live up to the hype. Almost everyone from my guild in Everquest that went to try Shadowbane came back to EQ after short time.
