Realm of Echoes — real-time browser MMORPG, looking for onboarding and combat feedback

Hi GameDev.net — I’m one of the developers of Realm of Echoes, a real-time 3D fantasy MMORPG that runs directly in the browser.

Play the current build (no download; guest access):

https://playrealmofechoes.com/?utm_source=gamedev-net&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=launch&utm_content=indie-showcase-thread-720182

GameDev.net project page:

https://gamedev.net/projects/204-realm-of-echoes/

You can choose a Warrior or Mage and enter a shared world with real-time combat, other online heroes, chat, bosses, loot, equipment, abilities, parties, trading, guilds, and professions. The current campaign includes eight onboarding quests plus 180 regional quests across nine regions, with progression toward level 30.

The browser client uses Three.js 0.185.0. A TypeScript Cloudflare Worker serves the client and authentication surface; the gameplay worker is Rust compiled to WebAssembly, while a Cloudflare Durable Object owns authoritative shared-world state over WebSockets.

I’d especially value feedback on:

• Whether guest entry and the first quest make sense without instructions

• Combat responsiveness and readability

• Frame pacing and first-load performance

• Which MMO system you would most want us to deepen next

Transparency: generative tools were used in parts of the project’s image and audio asset pipeline.

Thanks for trying it — I’ll stay around to answer technical and design questions.

Not really my kind of game but i thought i would give it a bash. Ran a bit slow and laggy for me but that could be my pc and internet. i think its a good starting point but art work and world could look better. i only played for a few mins because of lag issues so i couldn't really get a good concept of the game. seems like a good start though ! reminds me a little of runescape from what i played.
