Well our server will be distributed as free software and anybody can already run his own, so I don't see the point of an emulator.

At the moment we're using RO server emulator eAthena, but we're working on our own to replace that.

We'll probably have a server index server at some point in the future that would make it easier to get a list of active servers you can login to.

yes, they are going to change much. they plan a completely different stat system based on learning-by-doing character development. when you read a little bit in the wiki you will get an idea of what is planned.

Speaking of which, any idea when the new server will be ready? I know I'm the last person that should be talking about things taking a while, but I'm curious to see what it'll be like.

No, we're supposed to be The Mana World. :P

Too bad "real time battle" was cancelled due to technical restrictions. (Or was it? ;) )

If this game turns out to be click-based like Ragnarok then I'm quitting and not helping anymore. :?
I love you too. :)

Then you are free to start your own side-project together with Sull and Kyokai. ;)

That would be too bad, but don't be afraid. As you know we are currently using the keyboard as well as the mouse. I hope and assume that we will keep using both and allow players to play with only the keyboard if they want to. :)

As long is it doesn't become mouse only I suppose I should stay.

The whole reason I joined in this project was because I wanted to be apart of the most unique game I could ever imagaine, an MMORPG that uses a real-time battle system (based off Secret of Mana) was my dream game to play/create. I thought this would be that game, I hope I thought right... :?
I love you too. :)

Kinetic, well that's the main reason why I started this project, so I guess you shouldn't worry about it.
