Anarchy Online: Seven Years Of A Terrible User Interface

anarchy_online_logoAs a sci-fi fan, I've given a number of sci-fi MMO games a fair shake. Years ago when Anarchy Online went to a free-to-play model with quite inexpensive subscription options I jumped at the chance to play it. This week Anarchy Online has celebrated its 7th year, and I have to say I'm surprised it's lived this long. Yes, it's now ad-supported, but I haven't heard anything that tells me they have addressed their core problems.

What were those problems? Give them a look in this reprint based on my experiences that I made for Aeropause.

Fun fact: the Game Director on Anarchy Online is now the Game Director on the extremely successful Age of Conan MMO, also from Funcom.
