There is a new game that is entering the MMO arena, and that is AIR, the Aerial Steampunk Online RPG. This one caught my attention, thanks to a blog post by Dread Captain Robert, of Abney Park fame. Here is a small glimpse of what is to come:
AIR is a Steampunk Online Role Playing Game, where players can sail the skies, mine abandoned eyots, create mechanical constructs, concoct potent chemical compounds, join secret societies, and participate in large scale battles as a sky pirate, naval officer, or mercenary. AIR features a deep character development system where the choices your player makes affect his or her attributes and alliances. Take to the skies and unlock the secrets of AIR!
As it so happens, their forum is open to the public as of today. Their simple (as of this writing) forum style is something that I have been working on for the past few days. If you are into games, pirates, steampunk, or just plain looking for something new to check out, this would definitely be it!
