In our latest Q&A, Designer Mike Paddock discusses archery, magic and other major aspects of their upcoming release. We also, as usual, feature two exclusive screenshots. This week, Simutronics shows us a swampy area. You can read the full Q&A and see the images here. Dana Massey |

I have been following Hero's Journey for a while now with greater and greater anticipation. Now, when I read this, and since my "preferred" class is "archer" or "ranger," they really pique my attention. I pray this game does not disappoint because it seems to have all the things I wish for in a MMORPG.

What's all this "Ranger" business? Last time I checked, Ranger wasn't even a class. My only guess is that by "Ranger" he meant "Archer", but... I can't say I care much for that... I mean, it really depends. I like archers, but I don't care for rangers. Rangers have that tendancy toward nature that just isn't my bag. "Archer" is much less specific than "Ranger", so I think it's a better idea to choose that name, especially when placed in the same category as Warrior, Rogue, and Monk. Besides, not all rangers use bows. (In D&D their specialty was dual wielding, and Aragorn didn't use a bow...) Anyway, I'm not worried, seeing as we can choose two classes, and spend Hero Points in whatever way we like. Hmm... Archer/Wizard... Archer/Alchemist... Archer/Necromancer...? Interesting also is how we choose a primary and secondary. Finally, it's been confirmed. This brings me to wonder how much of a difference it really would make. I'm leaning toward Archer/Alchemist, and a friend of mine would more than likely play an Alchemist/Necromancer. I have to wonder just how different our characters would really be from one another. I didn't like his elusive reply to the question about everyone being a hero. I would have much rather him give details on the Nemesis system he mentioned rather than just... mentioning it. Anyway, good read. "Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." -Dr. Seuss |
