I have been playing Knights of Darkness for over a decade now. For those of you who have never played a MUD, I strongly encourage you to try this newbie friendly SWR. I would also recommend KoD to those of you who are familiar with SWR. There have been many upgrades to purge the blandness of stock code. For the most part, the players and Immortals are helpful and newbie friendly. I would have never thought this game could keep my interest for so long. I still tell myself that if I do not enjoy MUDing I will call it quits, but the character development and game enhancements keep me logging in daily.

As far as gameplay, you really need to log in and check out the character creation for yourself. Ask questions and mosey around for a little while. There is far too much to explain here. I have over 30 characters because each one is different. There is a little something for everyone, whether you want a combat based character or stay away from confrontation with a medic or engineer.

The Force system is unbelievable, in my opinion. You can create a Forcer from the start, but to increase your level you have to roleplay. With the Force tier system not every Jedi or Sith will be the same. A level 20 Forcer might have a spell that a level 100 does not.

I don't really know what else to say, other than stop in and check it out for yourself.
