Story The Start of Time From the very beginning of time itself; people were hunters. There were four main races. The races were: Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Alphidrites (Alpha-dree-tays). Humans live in castles and cities. Elves would live in forests. The Dwarves would live in little caves by forests. Alphidrites do not live anywhere for they are anything basically. They can shape-shift into a form or thing. They are probably the most powerful race ever. When they shape-shift, they grab all those abilities the thing has, while still able to shape-shift. All four main races were in an epic duel to see who was the strongest. Humans would go and mutilate the elves. Elves would go hide from every other race, and let the elite elves fight. The elite elves would die a terrible death. Dwarves would hide underground and see if they could survive unharmed. Problem is normally Alphidrites would change into a dwarf, and then change back, thus killing the Dwarves. Some Dwarves managed to live. The world was in a war of the main races for at least 38 years. When the war was over; all races were in a very low population. Some were tortured, while others were just killed without mercy. It was a gory sight. After about 84 years later, the races are building back up. They still all dislike each other. They are all basically sworn enemies. The races probably will not cross another race's territory.
The Current Time It is year 2159. In year 2130, the world was struck when a mysterious creature led the entire world into a war. It wasn't just the four main races; it was every being to themselves. You could not trust many. Any one like friends could back-stab you. Few people created squads of people they know they could trust. The entire world had a gigantic stop in growth. The roads and cities started to age and break. The place is now a huge wasteland. People are also willing to eat the flesh of their own kind with no problem if they must to live.
The Story of Alex Alex Fren is the main character in the story. He lived in year 2159. Alex Fren was starving, and wouldn't eat the flesh of his squad. So Alex Fren went ahead and looked for food and some fresh water. While walking, Alex Fren saw a mysterious shadow. He decided to chase it. Later he found out, it was one of the few ancient mages. He was fighting the mage, but lost. The mage then teleported him centuries back. Way more than centuries actually. He was in the medieval times. It is 84 years after the great war of the main races. Alex is just lonesome. All alone with no water, food, and lost all future equipment. He only has a few rags of clothing.

You can create a guild for a price. That is not all of it though. You can buy a hideout, guild armor, guild cape, guild merchants, and much much more! When I say guild armor, I mean armor that you can customize for you and your guild for a price EACH. A guild cape is a little expansion you can add to all your armor where everyone wears a cape you created in the cape builder.

Storyline:
Written perfectly, I was instantly captured, You keep the reader intrigued with your story line, it is straight to the point, You gives us the background of the world, without being to short.
Characters
Alex seems like a very interesting character, especially as you have the opportunity to choose what is destiny is so to speak. Not much is given away about the other characters; but I am sure with time we will get to know these characters.
Gameplay
Well...what can I say:
Alignment- I am a great fan of the Alignment Idea, and look forward to create a downright EVIL hero Customization- It depends on HOW many things you can customize, and what specifically would be customizable,and will it be influenced by your Alignment? Free-world- I REALLY cannot wait to see this, as sandbox games are my favorite types of games; and always love to investigate worlds and go everywhere and see everything, would there be a chance for hidden extra's for the more eagle eyed players? Because that is something I would love to see! Skills- Is there anyway you could Elaborate slightly more on this, do you mean things like swimming, running, climbing, jumping? will these be constantly active, or will you use a Stamina system? Guilds- Not the greatest fans of Guilds personally, however it seems that it will suit this game very nicely! Banks- Once again a nice extra, however how do you fit this within the game? Isn't this game based in the middle ages; so items like Bank Cards haven't been invented? Screenshots
Screenshot 1
I am sure this will be changed, but it is very bland, it needs to have something added into the background, just to make it stand out...for example you could use some map images?
Battle Screenshot
Paint me intrigued; there isn't much else to say It is hard to capture the Battle System through an Image, might I suggest using a Screen Recorder and perhaps record a simple battle?
Conclusion
I will be watching this game closely and the moment you are moved into the LD sections, I'd love to give this one a Pre- Review. Then again I am sure that Amerk and Penguin would want to also
