I Need Help... I Tried Downloading This 2 Times But When It's Finished I Don't See Any Icon Or Nothing And It Takes Forever To Download... What Am I Doing Wrong??
I was so mad when my pc broke I realized how much I had gotten into the game and not playing it made me sad and my friends were playing it and I couldn't its deftly a good game try the trial then if you like it buy it :)
-jaw drops- I've been looking for a game like this since I was13....now at age 22 I just now for the first time today, mere seconds ago, I found this. I've been looking for a dragon game like this....I feel like I just discovered Atlantis or something! I'm so excited!!! I am so playing this!
It's a bit stupid how they make it so you have to pay to be anything other then human... It's an old game, I'm just wondering why not make it free and create a new game and make that a pay for game? The whole game seems to revolve around dragons, and it's annoying when you can't be one x.x
@982Mystic If I knew how to make games, I would make a free online dragon one. Possibly with areas and things you can't do unless you pay- but non the less, a free game where you can be a dragon.
NO GAME has yet to even COME CLOSE to the OUTSTANDING crafting system in Horizons. Yes, I said Horizons, as that is the game I came to love...while Istaria is the new name, I still will remember this as Horizons because it was a game that set new Horizons for online play and interaction.
It is shame all the trouble the game has had over the years --BUT IT'S STILL ALIVE!! Yay!! To bad I don't pay to play games online anymore.. :((
@EBTL0947 I also started when it was Horizons.. its still alive and kicking alright, and its a fantastic game.. it has a lot of potential to grow, and im glad the new developers arent rushing it, and yes, i still refer to it as Horizons or HZ as well.. Long Live Horizons; Empire of Istaria!

Yeah, looks great and all, but I really want to be a dragon. And sadly I can't because you have to pay and I don't have money right now. *sigh* Figures...
its a small tight knit group.. i really wouldnt be suprised if that was the case either.. heheh.. pretty rare i even see that many people online at once, lol
Heh, I had that exact same thought about that shot.
Anyways, I'm an ex-horizons guy (back when there were even multiple EU servers). I enjoyed the game, but it was my first MMORPG, I didn't really know better. Yet seeing this video I'm almost tempted to give it a little try :p but I don't really feel like another mmorpg these days.
Nice video Amerie! Good job. It really shows what being in Istaria is about. So much has changed and Istaria just keeps getting better. I don't know about any Banshee spells (maybe that will be with future content), but I love the two new epic spells I have received since all the new content came in. Thumbs up to the devs!
I noticed at the begining on the clip they showed one of the epic spells Banshee. Did they readd these spells back into the game? It was a shame when they pulled them all
Some tornado spell, burning archer, volcano, drulkar's wrath ("Gold Burst"), and that one where you summon a knight of creation are all in game... sadly not the banshee but still, there are a few there including one really cool one for dragons.
First i want to say Horizons is my most prefered online game. I am one of those "old" faces who returned back last year from Unity. But I was shocked, HZ changed so much!
Personally I was not impressed of mass changed terrain without any major reason, moved vital NPC's around the world, this made me feel "not at home".
Just read about new update "Scourge of the Skulk", sounds interesting, maybe I will renew my subscription just to get shocked once more time :)
I did try this game out for a short while, and the players who I joined the chat with were very helpful and nice, but there's just so many offputting design flaws that really made me loose interest quite fast. It seems like it's a small and heartful community that I really wanted to know more about, but I just... kinda wished the graphics and gameplay were a bit more up to to par with what's out there.
@AndrigeEU its an old great game. Released 2002. But due to financial problems the owner changed every year :( community is great and there are some EU players there
Just shows what a 'small' MMO can do, this game has been through so many rough patches and still struggles on, putting bigger competitors to shame in my opinion.
As for the comment that it clearly hasn't evolved, that's where you're wrong, it has evolved a lot over the past 4 years I've been on it, but of course it is far slower than better-funded MMOs.
And I agree, i took a break from Horizons for awhile to try out some other MMOs, but nothing has come remotley close to taking Istarias place.. IMO, far better that the games evolving slowly, then too quickly. So long as the quality of content continues, I'll gladly pay $10/month.
As for my own comment, this video is okay. But I can't help but feel it's a bit on the slow side. I'm glad my old MMO is doing well, even though I haven't played for nearly a year now. :)
Its really sad to see this kind of Promo vid. Proves Horizons failed to develop over the years and is also teasing potentional things which arent actually aint ingame. I wouldnt recommend playing it.
I would actually say this video is pretty honest. Dragons, Crafting, Lairs, fighting hordes of undead. It's all there in the game. It actually misses things out, like that Humans, Gnomes, Satyrs and Half-Giants are also playable races. I wonder why they've left them out... ah well.
@arbuperle It's not? I'd have to double check on that as a lot of updates have been flying around lately. Also, no need to get snappy, as 'pretty' is a qualifier ;P
A very well done advertisement video if I do say so myself. *grins*
Especially, the dragon part. Istaria was first, and Istaria continues to be the only MMORPG where you can be a *real* dragon (instead of some re-skinned dragon-like humanoid).
Love Horizons. Still my all time favorite MMO experience, and not to mention THE game with the most wonderfully detailed crafting system. All MMOs should model it imo
Good stuff. I thought this game had passed away a few years ago. I love that it hasn't, I played this game waaay back in beta and then for about a year after release. Gonna check this out for sure.

You don't mention that Istaria has about 50 character classes :D Dragons only get 3, but other races get 45 classes to choose from.
