Sounds interesting. Though I wonder if they had an agreement not to mention Fallout or Wasteland in the interview. Because it is going to be hard to avoid comparisons to those games (well, Fallout at least as I bet most people don't even know about Wasteland, the best game of the 1980s).

Graphics wise, it looks plenty hot to me. From the videos, the animation looks decent enough as well.
I hope (in vain) that people won't continue the vein of comparing FE to Fallout as this game comes closer to release. It ain't like Fallout was the first post-apocalyptic game ever; they didn't invent it. Let's perhaps instead let this game stand on it's own merits. I for one am looking forward to it. |

I think It could be good. I like to see developers go this route for game setting. I hope they can pull it off. I would like to see something based more towards gamma world.

The graphics may not even be fully completed either, they are still in testing. They also may be going the wow route of lesser quality characters in favor of the fps mode to allow for more on screen drawing of environment and other characters. Still alot to see yet from this team and this game, I look forward to it ever since 1st hearing about it over a year or so ago. They've come along way since the 1st newsletter.

Just take a look at the developer vids on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG1N2xeZxTU The game looks great. I think they are way too far along to be considered vaporware. I like the setting, I like the idea of it incorporating FPS as well. The characterization looks very good. I will definately keep an eye on it's developement. |

I was thinking about Fallout and how cool this would be until "You are using a FPS system..." Sorry, no interest. |

Interesting setting. I still have high hopes for the game even though I generally hate FPS. Hopefully it's not a pure FPS system as player twitch skills do not a fun MMO make.

I'm all for games that try something different... but this is not my cup of tea... If you're going to do a post apacoylpse... use Phatom Dust... that'd be cool...

Will be interesting to see how this develops. I'm all for any game that's not swords and sorcery and tries even a little to move away from pure levels (that is, levels with skill points is fine with me). I'm much more interested in playing in a niche game with a strong community than a behemoth with no community. Apply lemon juice and candle flame here to reveal secret message. |

From the interview itself~~~
"External testing has become a tricky business in recent years and ended up being more of a marketing gimmick than an actual process. People, including media, tend to prematurely judge your product based on your testing states. We are about results more than hype." They speak the truth with those lines. That is exactly what it has become.
