HI!!!!! OK SO-
Darkness Descends was a pretty standard fantasy MMO, think like World of Warcraft or Runescape, standard fantasy setting, equal interactions both between other players and with NPCs, it didn't have anything really with different races like those two games, it stuck with just humans for the people in the world, but it made up for it just because of Gamefuna's general impressive skill at making and writing believable characters, so it's not noticeable too much!! But otherwise general fantasy yeah, standard kinda JRPG fantasy monsters, paladins, a fairly standard but strong magic system, kings and princesses all that stuff!
In terms of a basic story structure it was pretty simple, there was an evil corrupting force spreading throughout the kingdom that simply just called the Darkness (real creative, I know -_-), and the goal was to try to find the source and stop it! By the nature of the game, though it was really grindy, it took a lot of time and effort to make story progress, and sometimes things were even locked behind time limits, where you had to wait in real time for NO reason which is always a game killer, even for how dead the game kinda was on arrival anyways. As a result of that, I'm forcing Mike to remove those so people can actually progress!
Before it shut down the furthest players were finishing up getting the macguffins you need to be able to leave the starting (well, I guess the ONLY island that we got), but no one knew what would happen when we left. UNTIL TODAY.... But not me I'm stayin as spoiler free as possible :P
Hope that answers enough of the questions! I don't wanna give away too too much because it'll spoil it for people who haven't played before, ESPECIALLY the characters so! That's the general overview!
