So How's That Free Realms?

I was able to fire it up and play some.  For me, it is kind of what I thought it might be, the anti-Home.  All the issues one had with Home aren't here (one could say that Home does stuff that this doesn't).  Have a world with a number of mini-games out of the box, plus an RPG leveling up stuff, and a number of areas you can gain skill in.  The graphics aren't as good as Home though, and sometimes the graphics glitch out a bit (mainly from the weird camera angle).  Now, need to just figure out how to exit the game from in the game.

Early on, I would give it a thumbs up.  Now, looks like I am a level 2 Ninja.

Definitely agree with this.  Home should get a massive overhaul to be a little more like Free Realms.  The graphics should stay as they are, but the world and mini-games should be more like Free Realms.  Having it one big world, instead of just places you choose from a menu, would make you feel like you are more a part of that world.  Probably would get Home's traffic up, as well.  I mean I go on Home maybe once a month.  But I can see myself playing Free Realms at least once a week.

Well, Home has started to take on a life of its own.  Free Realms is a different beat.  I think it is preferable to Home on a whole, but each have their own strengths.
