There are some things I like about this game.

It tries to be better than other RPGs. i like how you are told to RolePlay in (can you believe this?) a RPG! the Creature Creator thing is really nice too. I'm sure there are other great things I haven't been able to explore yet.

but thats the problem... I HAVEN'T been able to explore them.

First of all I have no idea what I am doing. I chose the cat thing because I wanted to RP a character that would pickpocket, lock pick, etc. It doesn't trust people and all that and plus I was trying to find a game to play with my friends and I figured we could be a bunch of cat people together. So I play the tutorial thing and I'm like FINALLY I AM FINISHED WITH THAT! I mean it was nice but it took forever to finish when all I wanted to do was see if the game was good enough for all of us to play. So I get out and I figure now what? I RP talk with some guy and then I walk around and talk to all the computer things NPCs or whatever and I buy stuff from the swords dude. Then I train from random people. so I train all the way and then nothing happens... so I was like ok so I need to train on the stuff also. so I go off to kill rats and I'm attacking them and I'm like yeah finally I'm doing something right. So then he won't die. I attacked him he lost like 20 and I lost some too. and then nothing happened... yeah so anyways I'm just mad because I cant kill anything and I'm doing nothing because the game isn't really that friendly and it isn't self explaining.

Hey you got lucky! Sometimes the BUG where you stop fighting, your opponent doesn't and you die. Most of the time you just need to restart the attack and then you can kill something. You did see all the notices about this being unfinished, right? At least if you and your friends are Enkidukai (cat-like people) you will all start in the same town. The other races start in one of two other towns.

Anyway give it another try, read some of the other threads to see what is what or come back later when the current bugs have given way to new bugs and more content is stable.

Welcome to PlaneShift, since you have found the forums can I suggest a quick look around as there are several guides and howto's even a whole section full of helpful information.
