Horizons Review

IGN PC has posted a review of Horizons: Empire of Istaria, giving the MMORPG an overall score of 8.2/10. Their conclusion:
Horizons has its share of problems, from bugs to class imbalances, but in general its first month has gone pretty smoothly. There hasn't been too much downtime, and since I started playing, there hasn't been a single time I wanted to play and couldn't because the server was down. None of the bugs are showstoppers and class imbalances are relatively unimportant except for overachievers who like to be the best and the first. Horizons is a community game, though, where players have to come together to rebuild the world and fight back the ever present threat of the Withered Aegis, so what benefits one player benefits the entire community. The ability to totally customize a character through multi-classing, the dichotomy of adventuring and crafting, the crafting system that will make most crafters extremely happy, plenty of low level content, good graphics and incredible music, along with a deep lore is worth a look if you think those things might be of interest to you. Like most MMOs, the game is what you make it.
