No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity. I know none and therefore, am no beast.

Judging from what I have read about the combat, progression and crafting it sure sounds like it. But then again so was Tabula Rasa before it was released and turned out to be a piece of turd.

Still I have my hopes....

i actually liked tabula rasa. It would still be around if NCcrap didnt shut it down after firing richard garriott.

Current MMO: AoC
Previous MMOs: WoW, Guild Wars, LotrO, Vanguard, Ultima Online, D&D Online, CoH, Lineage II, Tabula Rasa (i miss it).

And here we got another one, who didn't understand, that the video released wasn't a combat video, but a video to show the mechanic of dynamic targetting.

If you've informed yourself, then you'd know, that the Developer has answered alot questions in that regard and started overhauling the animations aswell.

Last but not least... a pre-beta-video is seriously not, what you should judge a game for.

 

If you're interested in the game, then visit the official forums and start reading all of the QoTW, before you start crying here on mmorpg.com about the game, where there's only 5% of information available.

To add to the poster above me, you have obviously never followed an mmo pre-release before. Compared to alpha footage from other games, those videos were downright amazing. Nonetheless, MastHead studios are reworking the combat system and promising to polish the animations before we see the game again. New vids should be out in the coming month or so, wait for those. MastHead has shown themselves to a competent developer that listens to the concerns of its fanbase. All indications are that Earthrise will be a quality product.

To the OP's question: god I hope so.

I have high hopes for this game as well. I really like what I see so far. They environments seem cool. They have a great feel to them. Only time will tell on this one though. There isn't enough info yet to make a decision at this point and you will truly never know until you try it anyway. I will be keeping my eye on it.
