In our E3 preview, Garrett Fuller learns about Squig Herders, Chaos divinities, combat and more. Mythic showed off their new game in the West Hall and despite being only eight months old, Garrett also had some time to play it. Here is his preview:

Sounds excellent! I wonder if they saw the person playing on the xbox360 at all.

We certainly didn't see them, but there were a lot of doors... |

One consideration here is that a lot of people for a lot of games were using XBOX 360 controllers plugged into PCs. Age of Conan, for example, did this as well. So, the controller does not mean that they're at the console level. That said, I would not be surprised if most - if not all - the major next gen games hit the consoles as well. |

Great news. I'm going to be following this MMORPG. I love the RealmvsRealm fighting and the touch of humor. I 'm already imagining my first toon will be a goblin squib herder :) |

Warhammer as a PnP game was great, and I was looking forward to it when a prior company was developing it. but i guess they fell under and Mythic picked it up.. from what i've read so far. And Mythic is pretty solid for developement. their DAoC was built around the gamemaster pnp game system and i personally didn't experience any technical problems other than the paperdoll in the inventory screen not showing up when i used an ATI Radeon card. But nevertheless, This should be a really nice game. |

I do not understand in what way Warhammer, in either the tabletop miniatures game or the pen-and-paper roleplaying game, does not take itself seriously. Surely, there is a good deal of humour woven into the Orcs, but other than this it takes itself more seriously than EverQuest, and a hell of a lot more seriously than World of WarCraft. My concern with Warhammer Online remains the same. I think that it is going in the wrong art direction for the Warhammer setting and I fear that it will not take itself seriously enough, making a parody out of Warhammer and giving the impression that it is some sort of satire on it, like Steve Jackson's Munchkin was of Dungeons & Dragons. The more Paul Barnett says about Warhammer Online, the more I want to... to... flick his ear and call his mother a lizard.
I rather expected it, for some reason. Actually, haven't they said this before? By the way, does anyone know what happened to Mark Jacobs? Is he still on Dark Age of Camelot or otherwise still with Mythic in some way? |

Looks like Greenskins all the way for me. It was a toss up between Orcs and Chaos, but no doubt now. I can not wait to see this game! |

Awesome preview.
