General Discussion

If I wanted a FPS I would go play BF2, DOOM, etc that are made to be FPS; Not some bastard stepchild like the pile of stinking garbage that SWG was turned into. Some people actually like to plan there attacks and enjoy the animation of the battle, instead of some lame click feast. Click,click, click,click,click, ya I pwned you noob.

having one class means no freedom-simple

Ultima Online Asherons Call -you could make a toon as you felt like it, if you want to be a mage with healing and war magic why not? why everyone HAS to be forced to pick one thing. For me its one of the best points of the game, do what you want when you want it, no more of this ingame barriers. Freedom.

besides there will be 500 skills or so and differences will be many between players, i gave a detailed explanation on the main forum

If you ask me, it's anothe cookie cutter BS MMORPG. The interview was nothing but smoke and mirrors IMHO.

Q - "You said craftings going to be creative innovative blahlbahlbhalbh! Explain!"
A - "Well yes, not only do you have to walk 100 miles to find mining spots which is common in every other mmorpg, but once you get there you'll be ganked by a clan of morons, and its legal!"

Q - " You say combats going to be innovative creative blahablhbalahblhbal"
A - " Well yes, not only do you do the same bullshit point and click, but you get to knock heads off, and get blood spatters! Theres innovation people!"

I think the MMORPG's full of shit, Just like Dark and Light. I hope they proove me wrong.

You're forgetting one thing (well many things actually) but the main one is: There will be no guns, so it'll hardly be a 'click feast'. Strategy can exsist in the world of fast paced action. It doesn't strictly limit to a group of pre-selected attacks and calculative number proscessing. A Samurai wouldn't think "Ok here's my strategy, I'll just go with it and enjoy the view" You can do things like use the enviroment to gain advantage, keeping your own abilities in mind to use them at the right moment.
Also assuming two games will be alike just because they fall under the same category is just retarded.

You just need to open your mind and think past those stubborn preferences.
However if that's your personal taste then try to remember that 'some people' also like first person action, so get the fook out.

chaintm:
Pirates of the burning Sea isn't a vapourware. they showcased working version of the game to general public at PAX and developer's forum activity strongly suggest that the game actually will be released.

Wow- I can't believe this project already has detractors.  The care bears are really going out of there way to try and put a stop to this one.  Fuck em'.  I have been without a decent online game since UO went Trammel.

I think I have every right to be excited over this game, and it deserves every ounce of hype- and the naysayers warrant an "STFU" at best.

The RPG monopoly in the MMO market is coming to and end.  Soon MMOFPSs are going to spring up; despite two early failures.  Beyond that, I don't know what other types of MMO games there are going to be.  I can tell you that MMOs will eventually rival network television for "viewers", "ratings", and advertising revenue- but not as you know it today.  Consequently, MMOs to cater to all types of people will be made.

So the PvE monopoly in the RPG niche of the MMO market; is also coming to an end.  Will it still be around?  Always.  Will the "golden era" of this garbage be over?  Definitely.  And thank god.  MMO's in general have been held back way too long.

Can't wait!

Finally, game developers who understand the true possibilities of the MMORPG. Also how to incorporate epic battles while still having a completely diverse character creation system. =)))))

Pure Awsome!

Sounds an awfull lot like UO, pre-Trammel (sp?). Well as far as mechanics go and all.

Like others have said before, if they pull it all off it'll be an interesting game where people won't want to head out and skill up something in expensive armor/weapons as there will be that, oh-so missed feeling of fear and mistrust while playing.
