 Please tell me that you don't gauge how good a game is by how well they make the CG videos?

I for one like those movies, and appreciate the work that went into making them.  But I dont for one second think they lend ANY evidence to how good the actual game is.

WoW killer...

 

Makes me wonder if anyone actually read the stated goal for the game.  When they first really started talking about the game...  It was to be "different" the type of game you might play along with another.

 

The goal isn't to kill any game.. its to be different enough to get some market or share some market space.

Being able to choose the skills you want to use, offers much less variety than pre-made class based systems.

Its a Funcom game... enough said...

Some claim that Funcom has learned something from earlier releases....

Some might also say that gamers should have learned something from Funcom's earlier releases.

 

Most would  agree that MMO gamers have a memory of a Goldfish.  Thats defently what Funcom is relying on. 

The PR campaign has started.  Get ready to be lied to - again ... and again.... and again....

Do you Funcom haters just learn this language? Are you paid for it?

How is this game going to be a WoW killer? It isn't even remotely similar other than being an MMO.  Admittedly the concept sounds interesting, but a lot of games have promised tons of content only to be stripped down right before release. I'll remain skeptical on this one. No WoW killer here, move along.

I hope it's not a wow killer. I really don't want to see this game ruined by that community. Sometimes a smaller subscription base is a good thing.

OMG, we still know NOTHING about this game.  And why do we always have to compare other games to WoW.  People who think that WoW is such a great game that it sets the standard are high.

This is the first time I have looked at the game, and I am impressed at least by the graphics and from the description of some of the game features. It really does sound promising, and look good. How the final product will turn out is entirely different. I might have to keep an eye on this one and addit to my list of games I am looking forward to.

I also am not going to let how AoC turned out impact my judgement. I never played that game even because I wasn't what I was interested in. So here is hoping for the best with Secret World.

He is right secret world is WoW killer.Every new MMO has a good big launch takes player away from WoW who never return.Darkfall,AoC,War, Aion took chunks away WoW. WoW is Whale Shark in a tank of million piranhas one bite doesn't hurt and won't kill but a million bites will eventually kill it.

 

As Secret World it has something that AO and AoC didn't have.SW will be using Aoc engine funcom will not be experimenting and will have experience with engine.Plus they have knowledge and experience of two mmo know.Every fan has the right to be sceptics but information points to this game.Doing the one thing that two other funcom games have not launch with out any major bugs or problems.

Damn- same engine as AOC =(

AOC barely runs on my machine (Hell, it barely chugs along) so I have never been able to actually play it (nor has FC ever burned me) but this game looks like a great concept (and very original)

Oh well, hopefully I will have a better computer by the time its released =(

Plenty of time, I'm gonna guess this game which had its FAQ created in 2007 is going to be ready for beta by end of next year this time.

Funcom topple WoW?  That's as hilarious as it is absurd.

I won't form an opinion until i play the game for a few days. That being said, Only time will tell; they have done a good job with the viral marketing. I won't judge Funcom based on its past-- I just hope they have learned something from it.

There will be no WOW killer. WOW was a phenomenon of a moment in MMO history which does not come back. Just IMO.

But games don't need to be WOW killers. I think what we see looks good, and a refreshing new idea. Neither fantasy nor sci-fi. Looks good so far.

Despite the OP's unbridled enthusiam, I do have hopes this game could turn out fun, hey, it has 3 factions, about time somebody gave that another try.

I wish people would stop using the term "WoW Killer" - it is almost a kiss of death.  That having been said I like the look of TSW and took the test, I am a Dragon.  HOWEVER, I will not be preordering this FUNCOM game. I will wait and see what is said about the launch.  If they do their usual job I will wait longer till they update the game, if they transcend themselves and actually launch a game that is good at start I will give it a try.  The market in MMO's is filled with  what is, in my opinion, slop.  I would rather play DDO for free then pay money for a game that is not worth it. DDO is fair but for free it is worth what I paid for it.  For $50+ plus monthly fees I want something more than what FUNCOM has given in the past.  So, I like what I see, but I will wait to see if "seeing is believing".  FUNCOM is on probation as far as I am concerned.

Yes but your a Dragon and thus your opinion doesnt count. Only us Illuminati have the right to express our opinions... Dragons- LOL. Go play with your sword and leave opinions to factions that matter.

 

BTW- I hope you know I'm just playing- I actually fully agree with your post- But since your a Dragon, I had no choice...
