There are so few players, because this game is a few years younger than Tibia. I can remember the good old Tibia days, where less than 50 players were online.

Another reason is that this game focuses on roleplay, and most people just like to play the hack and slash and grow stronger type so this isn't the right game for them and they don't come here. Well the hardcore ones don't at least...

Sometimes it lags, sometimes not.

Quests and dialog with npcs are not implemented yet.
The game is a roleplaying game, that means, players should act and play like a medieval person. Persons killing others for fun or training in town without PLAYING the role of their Character will get banned and deleted.
If you create more than one Character, play both as total different persons.

fun, yes, very infact...  if you know how to RP that is...  I enjoy it myself very much here.  But my bro on the other hand doesn't seem to understand the first thing about it.  

Lag, well I wouldn't really complaine about it.  We're all getting this for free and lag comes when you're on a free service.  The game itself barely uses any bandwidth, its just that the server is a little slow.  I wouldn't complain tho.

@KillerX: As I have statet very often the last days: Yes, the server is slow, it has only 233 MHz.
No, the server isn't the bottleneck that causes the lag. The server hardly uses more than 10% of its CPU time when more than 20 players are online. The lag is caused by the internet connection.
