Every so often, I like to look back at other MMO's which pre-ceeded or were released around the same time as UO. Games like, Meridian 59, The Realm Online, etc. But here is one that was new to me: Tibia. It was released in 1997 & looks a lot like if you were to make Ultima 7 an online game. Anyone here played / play this? I might give it a shot for fun. Just for fun take a quick look.

Interesting. Dunno if I could get used to the graphics tho. I did note in copyright info that the game is 1996 - 2021 ... predating UO by at least 9 months. I'm still exploring the website, but I might try ftp.

I always wanted to play Tibia but never gave it a chance. Loved the hell out of Ultima 7 and Serpent's Isle. I think at this point it wouldn't be worth it though. If you play an MMO from the beginning, that's the best experience you can get imo.
