I remember how I got this game: I played the demo, yes! An offline sp demo for a MMO! With its own short contained story! I liked it and played multiple times through it. But paying monthly for a game? That wasnt really possible for me back then. a couple of months later, I visited a firend. And he handed me over a sealed copy of the game. He got it on his birthday and, surprised, didn't liked the idea of paying monthly for a game. (little side joke: a short time later he started with wow^^). So I've got my copy, took it home and read through the manual. The massive lore-drop section of it impressed me. It wa sso intriguing to read through the history of the world, starting in the 2000s and going up the the 2800s. So I imagined running around that city. And then I took advantage of the "free trial month" or what it was. It was really fun! It transported the idea of a pen&paper game to the screen. And many players were friendly and helping beginners. There was that one guy, I teamed up with regulary, who was named after the game company "Psygnosis". We supported each other. Another guy was just sitting in a bar in game and had even a beer in front of him on the table. I questioned him why he is sitting here: He was resetting some skill points (which took time, because of a cooldown). So I just took a seat and had alittle chat with him (because I didnt knew what he was doing at all). When the Neocron 2 was on the horizon, there was a "Farewell Party" ingame. Many players gifted away stuff they didnt needed anymore (because the amount of items to carry over was limited). There was a lot of going on and I stil miss it time by time : ) It even had a navigation Ray, comparable to the one of Dead Space! Well ahead of its time!
