Ok.  I used to be a HUGE UO Player.  It's a great game.  Alot of fun and well
thought out.  But they are right that it is a time eater.  You will spend HOURS
a day playing this game....at least if you want to get your characters up
strong quickly.
The interface is very well set up.  And the graphics make it alot of fun.  I
like the way you are actually talking to a being that you can see instead of
everything being text based.
In a way, it's like taking AD&D and putting it in to a live format that you can
see everything that's going on.
If you buy it, get the second age which is out now.  It has a larger expanded
world to play in and more monsters to go up against.  Not that there aren't
enough monsters anyway.
It costs about $40-50 if you buy it at a Best Buy.  Plus they charge you per
month of playing.  I think that's kind of a rip off, but it's a good game they
have going here.
A better one comming out soon is called Everquest.  My friend is Beta testing
it currently and it looks even better than UO does.
