MMORPG web site, back in 2004 I believe.

Playing on Win xp originally and 8.x now.

Played several other graphics games, most notably Asheron's Call, Eve, WoW for my MMOs back in the day.

I come and go, so I have a mix of P2P and F2P accounts. PayPal please!!

1. How did you come to know about Ryzom ?

Son No. 2 didn't get into the WoW Beta and was disappointed. Back in the day we did a lot of beta testing for OS utilities, office and CAD software in a time when having a "corporate resume" if you will was often required.

I read about SoRs development and wrote to the NA support group (Themis) listing of past efforts and got in early. While my son was at school, created a toon, and had about 2 hours till he got home and explored for a while. He played for about 8 months, as did Son No. 3 later on (TrykerFreddy) as well. Played thru open beta, followed by FBT, and more open betas

They broke my original toon, and I couldn't get in post release, so I finally gave up and created a new name as a joke (Fyrosfreddy) just so i could get in and say hello to folks.

2. Have you played any graphics intensive games before ?

Before and since. Raised a family of nerds, starting building PCs for ourselves (CAD and workstations for office) in 1990. The graphics cards for CAD made great cards for gaming, so that soon followed w/ games like the 7th Guest. Never played any other MMO for any length of time as they always violate one of two rules a) no games w/ jumping ... watching toons in say CoD running into or away from battle pogosticking their way thru the field of battle just kills the realism / immersion for me b) any game where it's all about winning and not getting, but keeping all the goodies for other players is not for me.

As for graphics, I can't say that SoR is graphics intensive. Only one of my GFX cards breaks 30C and just barely, the other isn't used. I like that on the 64 bit client, the CPU uses all 8 cores by default. Burt Ryzom plays just fine on IGP.

3. Which OS do you use for Ryzom ?

Win 7 64 (now using 64 bit client)

4. F2P or P2P ?

P2P. If I use a product, I believe in supporting it. Everyone deserves a living wage and should be paid for their work.

I don't use alts as, to my eyes, that's cheating. Not cheating other players per se, cheating myself.

1:How did you come to know about Ryzom?

Back in 2006 i needed a replacement for SWG PRE CU, visited mmorpg.com and checked for the highest ranked sandbox MMORPG (deliberatly ignoring WOW, which i never touched in my life - blamed the destroying of SWG on WoW success-) . Played some of them but sticked to Ryzom and Silan.
After 'The Soul' grabbed me on my first visit on mainland i was hooked.

2: Have you played any graphics intensive games before?

Anytime gameplay over graphics.
If graphics would mean anything more to me i would still play some singleplayer shooter or something optimized for single player.
Was always ok with MMORPG's graphic wise.

3:Which OS do you use for Ryzom.
Windows XP then Windows 7 Ultimate.

4.F2P or P2P

Ryzom is always P2P for me.

1. How did you come to know about Ryzom?
My brother played the beta and I got hooked right away when I saw the beautiful world of Atys. Right after subscribing to retail he quit and I inherited his account, which was the beginning of my journey.

2. Have you played any graphics intensive games before?
Ryzom is beautiful, I don't think it's a matter of modern graphics engines or whatnot but rather design.

3. Which OS do you use for Ryzom.
OS X at the moment :)

4. F2P or P2P?
P2P, I see no reason not to pay for something this wonderful.

I started out very early back in beta. Back then i was going by nova , novaflare or variant. After a few short months as beta tester i ended up on csr staff some how . I had a bad case of burn out and stoped playing a couple months in to retail. I heard about it from some email list i was signed up for that listed beta mmorpgs. Never did loose my love for this game though just could not play any more. Im back now in a great guild and will be going to a paid account soon as im ahead on rent and able to pay for 1 year in advance

I was looking for an RPG to keep me occupied, which ran under Linux (I will not touch Windows), when I found myself at home 24/7. Of course Saga of Ryzom came up in my searches and I was immediated engrossed, even as a low level on Silan.

This is the only 3D RPG I have played but , as has been said, this is not graphics intensive.

I run under 64-bit Linux both Ubuntu and Fedora.

2x P2P, as I firmly believe in supporting anything where I am taking something, or in this case gaining something. Although I had little choice in 2007/9 because it was 21 days free, then subscribe or start again, when I became stuck on this crazy rootball.

1. How did you come to know about Ryzom?
I don't remember, it's been too long. I joined in the late beta and kept playing when it was released.
I rejoined just now after having been reminded of it during a discussion about MMORPG's where I mentioned Ryzom as the most memorable one, i looked it up after that and found that it had just been released on Steam. :)

2. Have you played any graphics intensive games before?
Oh yes, i have a pretty powerful computer. I wouldn't consider Ryzom one of those nowdays though. ;)

Windows 7

1/ My brother played it a while few (many ?) years ago, then I headr again about the game few times before the merging, so I gave it a try (just few days before servers merging). I was looking for a RPG game for a linux machine, so I gave it a try. And still there 5 years later ;)

2/ In a previous life I had a Mac, and played a lot on many games there (Marathon, Myst-Riven, Another world, several flight-sims [F/A-18, Hellcat,...]). Plus some heavy time-consuming, anti-productivity stuff on home-console.

3/ Linux (right now, a 64 bits Mageia-5 distribution)

4/ P2P (after only 2 weeks of F2P - I keep supporting this game, but that may not last if we move to a paywin schema...)
