Nether provides a very atmospheric experience even in it's unfinished form. The name of the game is kill or be killed, whether that is from the various creatures scattered about the world or from the other players you share the environment with. Nether players will quickly become your main concern when you are not within one of the scattered safe zones around the world. Nether players for the most part will shoot first and ask questions later so having your wits about you is key to survival. The game world is a decent size and allows for up to 64 players connected to any given server at a time. The servers are plentiful and located by region so you can pick a server that is closest to you. There are many areas of the map greyed out at the moment presumably to be added in a a later date. You level up your character by carrying out courier missions, scavenging for items, crafting and killing monsters. Perks are gained to add to you character as your level increases, and passive perks are gained as your account level increases. The former are lost on death and need to be reacquired so dieing is not without consequence. Equipment can be quite hard to come by but for those who wish to fast track to cosmetic glory you can pay real world cash to buy the items you want in game. But for those who enjoy getting things through game play there is nothing you can by paying you can't get through play. These cosmetic items are found in golden loot containers and opened with keys you can buy with in game currency, and provided you are wearing them or have them in your global inventory they will not be lost on death. there are some minor bugs still to be ironed out, including floating terrain features and some glitchy parts of the map that you can get stuck on. Water also appears to be very glitchy as well but i feel sure these issues will be addressed in upcoming patches. For the price of a ticket to the pictures you get a very absorbing game, I've had over 20 hours so far and still feel like playing some more. Recommend.

Patches and mods are coming think and fast making what was a terrible release and increasingly addictive game. The game is as stated in the title a "Rebirth" and you realize this as soon as you start a game. Although many see this as a regression in game mechanics, i believe it to be a firm foundation for a reboot of the series. I'm rating 7 for v1.4 and im sure my opinion on the game will only get better as time goes by.
