    It's not exactly the EU version.
    It's France-Benelux-Germany version of TCoS.

    You will not be blocked from the game from what I read unless they changed it, you just have to use a european internet anonymizer (no it isn't illegal to use one) and sign up, and apparently the game client itself doesn't have a block. I'll update this post once I figure out if this is 100% true or not

    edit : Seems I am able to update so far, 50% updating ^^ so I'm thinking that post I read was right...fingers crossed for actually entering the game though.

    The reason it isn't populated is because they blocked everybody except for like 3 countries that weren't really advertised the game much at all.

    And lets just say yes you can play without a proxy I was playing until they went down for maintenance like a couple minutes ago and so far I think this game really is awesome. Fable + DnDO would probably be the best explanation but the one and only complaint I have so far...well two actually, is for one the combat is a little...uh..delayed I think? Not really delayed just sort of glitchy like when you do a melee attack I've noticed with one of the skills I think it was hack was that it would damage them before you actually physically hit them..not that big of a deal it just takes a lot of time getting used to the timings and it also might be because of lag I have no way of telling.
    My only other complaint is lack of help with some basic functions in the game..there are stat points but they don't really go through and tell you how to use the skill deck or anything...which I figured it out and it is fairly easy to figure out (and I can imagine the combat is freaking crazy later on) but for quests they are very difficult to do fetch quests as there is no indication on the map where any NPC's are and there is no marks for where your quests checkpoints are....though I think this might be a good thing because then it puts a sort of exploration spin and makes it so you can't just do talk to this guy quests and level up anymore you actually have to find the guy instead of just walking towards the dot/X on the map.

    They really pulled off the whole feel of the game..it's very strange and very fantasy looking my only complaint on the graphics department is the shadows are screwed up but they make me lose like 8 FPS anyhow o.0 so I turned the player shadows off (regular shadows work great)

    Look in the screenshot thread for proof also pm me to figure out how to get in without being in those countries...and I don't think it's illegal for you to everyone I met was from countries not supported by the game xD

    Um, there is no "Day" trail, it is unlimited in time... and.. the game is pretty cheap around 30 euro's with 3 months included.

    That's about 50~60 canadian dollars I believe which is pretty expensive for most o.0

    I was under the impression you didn't have to pay for the box just the 15 a month?

    yah 9~13 euro's usually means it'll be 15 a month for CAN/USD...even if it's 20 a month I'd still pay for it though x) I'm rich like that.

    edit : did you get my PM seiyuuki?

    I'm not feeling warrior though I never usually play them lol I'll probably end up doing a rogue though they seem pretty fun.

    Is there an easier way to do quests though? I have to like search for the npc every time until I see a red dot on my map lol

    edit : servers are up! I'm on dravhare and name will be bluepill.

    I'm hoping Acclaim can get themselves sorted for this though, the game looks pretty nice, and it would be easier and safer not to use a proxy.

    Don't hold your breath for Acclaim, 'cause you'll die.
