Yeah, I'm pretty sure it has missions. Still, I have a feeling it'd end up degenerating into stat crunching anyway, even sryth's starting to go that way. Bugs me in a way because I liked it better when you didn't have to crawl through dungeons and everything was written in very descriptive detail. I personalyl prefered westwold when there wasn't a dungeon system in and every room was different. I also liked sryth a lot better before it took a massive interest in grind fanatics. Runeskin and the phantom assassin quest are proof of that. Anyway, I've probably said enough about all that on the forums. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dark" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, May 21, 2007 12:06 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Has anyone played Urban Dead?
