=-=-=-. -=-=-. -=-=-=. What is ArcheAge. ArcheAge is commonly referred to as a "sandbox" MMO, wherein many of the game's open world elements are created and maintained by players. The game is built within a modified CryEngine 3 originally developed by Crytek. In the gameplay experience you adventure in an open-world MMORPG freed from scripted paths and progression. You can build castles and claim lands whose riches fuel a player-driven economy. You can band together to protect your assets through siege battles and naval combat -- or choose the life of an outlaw and plunder the fortunes of other players through piracy and war. =-=-=-. -=-=-. -=-=-=.
