This version of Mythos is not bad considering it's a beta. It's like a cross between torchlight and wow. I'm not sure that's a good thing as apart from the specific system differences it seems awefully familar, and yet not as good as either.
Levelling is fast to start with as most games but it seems to slow down substantially and by level 11 you're starting to run around a fair bit. The difficulty is not bad, I even died once by something I didn't even see; although lag takes some getting used to as you have to start playing with the 1-2 second lag on attacks and traps as standard.
I don't know what it is about Chinese programmed games, I've played this and HoMM Online, but they always seem to lack the polish and have very basic GUI errors tha don't even seem worthy of an alpha let alone a closed beta. It gives me a feeling of a low grade browser game, although this is something that could be surely fixed pretty quickly and easily of they respond to bug reports in a timely manner.
Worth a try if you're a fan of the genre, otherwise wait and see.
I played it a little right before they said they were shutting the project down. It was really fun, nothing unique though that made it stand out from the rest. Reminded me of Torchlight a little. Seemed like a really good game for being a freebie, I'd rather play something like this than guild wars or anything.
Is the project shut down? I'm wondering because the front page just got covered with Mythos ad's. On gameplay videos it seems pretty fun but on many comments in here people are saying that it is too incomplete to be really enjoyed..
