I vividly remember the first time I stepped foot on World of Warcraft's Asian-inspired island, Pandaria. As a budding adventurer, I was awed by the opening airship battle, stunned by the region's beauty, and enchanted by its fluffy Panda-inspired people. My jaw still drops any time I do the circle around the Serpent's Heart - it was a world quite unlike any other: lush, vivid, and exciting. But the last time I really played the MMO was during Shadowlands because, while I reviewed Dragonflight, I didn't get to put as much time into it as I'd wanted. Why? Well, MMORPGs are 'massive' by their very nature, and finding the time to slot in daily quests and raids with the squad isn't exactly easy. By contrast, Legacy: Steel and Sorcery feels like a condensed version of the WoW experience, with added extraction mechanics to boot. It's a game that showed a lot of promise in its alpha stages, and it's finally arrived on Steam in early access.
