PC RPG Game of the Year: Dark Age of Camelot

Fantasy books are full of tales of mighty battles between armies of good and evil. For good or evil, many people like to pretend to live in online fantasy worlds. Usually these worlds are for camping, not going to war. In the massively multiplayer, online RPG Dark Age of Camelot, three races compete for glory in medieval times after the death of King Arthur. Armies stream into the frontiers, surround enemy fortresses, and open up with siege engines. Let the siege begin!

Besides refining MMORPGs, Mythic launched Dark Age of Camelot almost seamlessly in sharp contrast to the terrible launches of most other massively multiplayer games this year. Mythic clearly put their experience from years of running MMORPGs to good use. Thus, Gamespy awards RPG of the Year to DAOC Platinum.

Dark Age of Camelot is a massively multi-player online role-playing game conceived and developed by Mythic Entertainment. Set in the Kingdom of Albion in the years immediately following the death of King Arthur, players of the game enter a world in chaos, where Arthur’s peace has been shattered and dark forces threaten the Kingdom. Unlike traditional role-playing games in which a player’s greatest challenge is fighting computer-controlled monsters, players in Camelot will come face-to-face with their greatest challenge yet, other players. In Camelot, players must choose to be members (DAOC Plat)of one of the three Realms that are striving for mastery in this chaotic world: The Britons, the Celts, or the Norse. The Britons are the former kingdom of Albion, once ruled by the great King Arthur. The Celts are from the wild and magical western island of Hibernia. The Norse are the large barbarians from the lands to the north of Albion.
