TL;DR Project Gorgon is the MMORPG you didn’t know you were missing. Every login surprises me. Want to be a werewolf? Sure. A cow? Moooo. A tank with a crossbow? Absolutely. My wife and I have searched forever for “that next game” where devs care about mechanics, depth, and story. This is that game. A Message to New Players Look, the graphics aren’t flashy. If you only want shiny particle effects and the usual click-click-tab-click gameplay loop… this isn’t that. But if you’ve been drifting from game to game looking for actual innovation, depth, charm, and weirdness? Welcome. Here, NPCs refuse to talk to you unless you’ve recently bathed. The town bard gains favor if you… uh… build “intimacy” (yep) to unlock bard skills. The world is full of quirks like this, and they all matter. My wife got instantly hooked on the starter island: clay golems that seem useless, locked doors with no explanations, and then suddenly—click—everything becomes a puzzle dungeon with riddles, exploration, and “aha!” moments. CONS ======= -Graphics… yeah, they’re rough. - Towns are sprawling; NPCs are far apart. - Mechanics are not obvious. At all. You get out what you invest. - Inventory management is pain. “200 slots is not enough!” But you get used to the flow. That's honestly about it. PROS ======= - Depth over polish. Lack of graphic sheen = devs spent time on systems. It shows fast. - Fully randomized gear. Every run feels fresh. - One character can do everything. No alts required. Want to be a swordsman? Grab a sword and start sucking until you level. Want to punch things? Cool—back to level 1 fists. Earn it. - 28+ combat skills to mix and match. Cow healer? Bard + Battle Chem? Bear tank? Go wild. - A massive list of non-combat skills. Mushroom language, calligraphy, cartography, meditation, dancing, lore… new skills seem endless. - Fantastic community. Genuinely friendly, helpful, troll-free. - Player-driven economy. Sell gear to NPCs, earn councils, buy other players’ castoffs. - NPCs have depth. Quests, favor systems, new abilities, unique items—almost every NPC has layers. - Death isn’t a punishment. It’s progression. You literally gain “Death XP.” And yes, you can become a vampire. Final Verdict =========== Push past the “graphics ≠ gameplay” stereotype. This is a deep, weird, charming MMORPG where the developing team actually cares to do a good job, not make $ - a world that rewards curiosity, patience, and experimentation. Ask questions. Explore. Laugh. Die. Learn. And rediscover that nostalgic “rich gameplay” feeling from the MMOs before monetization took over. Project Gorgon isn’t just fun. It’s special. I give this a solid 8/10 and probably one of the biggest gems of an MMO Ive come across in the last 10 years. Im a 42 year old male who grew up playing games like Nexus/DarkAges/Diablo/WoW (among probably 50+ others). This is going straight into my top 10. BE. PATIENT. WITH. THE. GAME!

This is a true sandbox MMO that prioritizes exploration and roleplaying, without holding your hand or constantly telling you where to go or what to do next. For me personally, the game is the most fun when I pick one or two things I want to focus on and really commit to those, as trying to do everything at once can be overwhelming due to the sheer amount of depth in the game. For example, I decided to become a pig and all the NPCs started treating me differently. The innkeeper charged me extra and the barkeeper didn't even want to speak to me at all unless I brought him 20 apples. There’s a huge variety of skills that you discover throughout the world, and you can engage with as many or as few of them as you want. Your character doesn’t have a traditional level system; instead, you level up each skill individually, which makes the game feel much more immersive. There’s a skill for nearly anything you can imagine. Seriously, there’s even a skill for dying. The game has received many, many updates and is still being actively supported. I also didn’t expect the game to feel as active as it does, but I constantly see other players running around, which makes the world feel very much alive. I already know that I’ll be spending a lot of time with this game, as there’s always something new to discover. And if I ever get bored of what I’m currently doing, I can simply shift my focus to a completely different set of skills.

I just started playing the game a few weeks ago. And let me tell you I'm hooked. This is a love letter to the MMO that remembers what MMOs used to be I've been grinding through virtual worlds since MUDs were a thing. Cut my teeth on EQ corpse runs at 3am, built my first virtual empire in UO, and watched SWG's cantinas buzz with actual community life. Project Gorgon? This is what we've been missing. The struggle is real here. Mobs will absolutely demolish you until you figure out their patterns, their weaknesses, the dance of staying alive. It's got that old EQ brutality where death meant something... but without the soul-crushing corpse recovery that made you question your life choices. You even get XP for dying, which is weirdly encouraging when a random deer decides you're today's main course. It's grindy enough to be meaningful, but not so grindy we're entering Lineage II levels of mob slaying - and if all else fails, you can always farm enough money and buy someone who got luckier with the RNGods (plus with transmutation you can eventually get the stats on the gear you're looking for). The skill system? Pure genius. Don't like being a sword-swinging warrior? Switch to fire magic. Bored with that? Try necromancy. Or become a cow. Seriously. Cow is a playable race/class, and somehow it makes perfect sense in this beautifully weird world. The crafting runs deep. Like, SWG-level deep. Player economy that actually matters. And yes, there's drinking and dancing and all those little social touches that modern MMOs forgot existed. Granted I've only started playing a few weeks ago and I'm completely hooked (104 hours in 2 weeks). The community feels like those early days when everyone knew each other, when helping a random stranger wasn't some calculated social media move. Small dev team that actually talks to players... imagine that. And end game - there's so much to do and level it's going to be at least a good couple of months before I'm tapped out. Is it finished? Maybe 90% there. But here's the thing... there're already years of content waiting. While other studios chase the next quarterly report, these developers are building something that lasts. Sure there's no super overarching master quest line you're hunting through (YET) but this has the bones to be something even greater than it already is. If you're tired of theme park rides disguised as MMOs, try the demo. If you find yourself nodding along, support these devs. If you're on the fence, grab the demo, seriously, what do you have to loose (locks you to the tutorial island), and see if it scratches that itch. Or follow my stream and see what the gameplay hype is all about. They're making the game we all thought was extinct. Come for the grind. Stay for the cows. And seriously... if you're not already playing, why not? Still loving this game months later!

Well. Hard to describe. The game looks like ass. It's janky as hell. But still, i haven't had so much fun in an MMO in a long time. It's social, the mechanics and skills are interesting besides its jank. The community is one of the best iv'e ever witnessed. I just wish the game wasn't so darn ugly, janky and had a better name. i mean. common. project gorgon isn't really that catchy, is it? the graphics quality itself isn't even the problem for me. i think it's more the design. It's just not immersive or a convincing world at all. It's still absolutely worth it. just play for 4 hours to get used to the visuals and jank and it opens up to you. a quest and skill design without handholding, funny dialogue and interesting mechanics.

I'm about 20 hours in and absolutely addicted to this game. If you are looking for an oldschool EQ/AC like experience with modern QOL and an absolutely amazing community, I highly encourage you to check this out. Mind boggling number of skills to try, fun combat, a sense of discovery I don't get very often from modern MMOs these days, and charming old school graphics truly have me hooked on this game for many many hours to come.
