If the only reason you want to play PS is to hack, slash, bludgeon, shoot, destroy, and conquer... then find a different game. PS is a roleplaying game, not a hack-n-slash game. PS is about living in a life other than the real world. Living in a different world with endless possibilities and making a living with numerous jobs, making friends and having a blast. If you ever play the full version of PS, don\'t just go into it thinking that all you\'re going to get out of it is just \"a prettier perspective on Diablo II/ Dungeon Siege... it\'s so much better\". You should go into this experience expecting the best roleplaying environment imaginable, because that\'s what you\'re going to get. Since this game is free, it doesn\'t have a deadline, therefore giving it time to perfect it\'s objectives, thus rendering it one of the most revolutionary games right out of the gate. Once PS really starts taking shape, you\'ll really understand that it\'s like living on a whole different planet full of jobs, friends, foes, and possibilities.

The final (final as in \"good\" version, not as in there won\'t be any more added content) version of PS won\'t be out for at least another year or so. They still have TONS of work to complete on the project, not to mention the mountain\'s of bugs to patch. As for now, SWG is better obviously. Once PS releases though, it will have some healthy competition with other MMORPGs (quality speaking). Yes even though PS is completely free (hopefully it\'ll stay that way *the game that starts with rune and ends in scape*), some people prefer \"professionally\" developed games over non-profit organizations.

SWG may have its flaws (and I mean MANY), but it\'s still better than PS right now. The Alpha CB release should be more promising than the current PS release. My computer can barely run it at all:

   1GHZ Pentium III
   384 MB Ram
   64 MB GeForce2 MX 400
    40 GB Hard Drive (30 GB Free)

Hopefully, the PS programmers can tweak PS so it won\'t be a MEMORY HOG anymore. I barely get 4 fps...

I mean, SWG\'s graphics surpass that of PS\'s, and I get 60 fps in hhigh population areas. It takes me about 23 minutes (honestly, I timed my self... 23:09) to get into the PS world, and afterwards I get an average of 5 to 10 fps. Oh joy. A game that looks like Natural Selection (Half-Life mod, real nice textures and building work, but still built on an engine that takes a pentium one to run) runs at 10 fps. Please fix this inconvenience :) That is all for now...
