Game: The Secret World
Musically, solid. Everything else in the video- fluff. I'm sure the repeated text was supposed to convey how crazy the Secret World is, but I'm a gamer first, reader second.
They could have saved the video (I'm not mind-blown by a simple trailer with a couple vista-pans and bold textual claims) with just a hint of action at the end. Some combat, maybe? Or just a glimpse of an in-game boss.

Just throwing a couple more ideas to Funcom for their next vid. It should be a doozy.
All kidding aside, the game seems like it could be a blast, I just wish they showed that in this trailer.
Does anyone else think that there is more to the text then just the obvious? Did anyone notice that there were only three numbers mentioned in all the different statements. 4 , 8 , 11. Did anyone else think that some of the statements were oddly worded? Anyone?
Judging by their previous outings in secretive cryptic messages uncovering hidden websites that hint at the game - I would say this is an additional enigma that needs unravelling.
Unfortunately most of the 'gamers' commenting above probably do not have the brain cells to work that out. They just want to point and shoot - go back to mindless MMO's we don't want you here!
if you want gameplay just search for it and you will find a vid that show it little bit more. so dont be lazy and cry about trailers that is a good teaser and do a search. btw the combat looks alot like AoC but that would not be a big suprise.
what about little stonehenge (nicknamed bluestonehenge) just beside stonehenge... is that a mini beacon in case the big one shorts itself out ... on make believe power.
-munches popcorn- did a 10 year old write this? i'd say we dug too deep if the earth is hollow. "would you look at that"
There are portals in time and space. They are called Space portals and Time portals.
The morning light burns. - The afternoon light also burns but to a lesser degee
The 8 watches us... dirty sods.
There is a city on the moon. It is named MOON CITY. The city in the clouds had to be removed from the game because it was called cloud city.
Eleven days are missing - ever watched the hangover. Oh yeah... those were some amazing fucking days !
The wagtail has arrived, and he's no longer wagging his tail. We have to rename him, tail.
The bees are returning - not sure where they went, but their returning. i guess... they were on MOON CITY!
Atlantis Rises - no not the city, just the very very horny god.
Dark places are crawling, if you put a light on it... it's a light place crawling. Either way a lot of crawling is going on.
Everything is true - unless it's not in the game. Then it's not true until we've added it. or fixed it. So just bug list some stuff and we'll get around to it. We;re very fast at fixing bugs, it's not like the HoX class still changes hair colo... OH.... nevermind
Yes this simply isn't a stupid trailer but another code which Ragnar Tornquist is becoming famous for seeding the games news and trailers and such. I'm sure the main community is a buzz trying to figure out what the code is and then cracking it, I'm sure there is something juicy behind it.
So they got me into Age of Conan with lots of anticipation. But that rather quickly ended. I hope they learned from the Endgame-Issue in AoC and don't make the same mistake again in here!
Dear friends, please temporarily stop your footsteps
To our website Walk around A look at
Maybe you'll find happiness in your sight shopping heaven and earth
You'll find our price is more suitable for you.
Welcome to our website [url=http://www.bingstore.us
Next we come to talk about a topic:
Why are now prices are very expensive%uFF1F
yes Many people now have to earn more money
to Pushing up prices
But they didn't find customers buy after won't come back
But friends %uFF0CDo you ever found
Our website is more cost-effective price than others
Want to know why?
The answer is:
We are not the point to earn money
We are long-term trade marketing
We are for the benefit of customers%u3001
Why our customers will be so much?
Are the prices we meet their needs.
Also, someone correct me if I'm mistaken, but the TSW team has more in common with the TLJ/Dreamfall team than the Conan team as far as the designers go, so I'm not sure the AoC bashing is as poignant as you might think.
Like others said, great music score shit poor video otherwise.
Although you do get a sense of the different myths you may encounter. After each of the texts, we should have gotten a .25 sec screen flah of how that myth will be represented in the game.
As an example I know a little bit about Liliths Children. Which more or less states that Lilith was Adams first wife, who was not made out of his rib, but of out muck and mud. Who then ran away from Adam and gave birth to Asmodeus and then thousands and thousands of demons. She is also considered to be one of the four Queens of the Demons. Cant remember the other threes names.
Personally I hope the continue to delve into some of the more obscure mythos.
I'm in. TSW will be a massive revenue generator for Funcom. The company is making all the right moves; good people at the helm. It should be a very exciting game to play for everyone.
This is typical of this stage of game development. The world builders are some of the first to complete sections so the designers can start placing mobs into it and then testing combat. Heck, how many feature films have released trailers that were nothing more than scenery and a few words. Give them a break and stop being such a Chicken McNugget Generation.

As both had been created from dust, Lilith considered
herself equal to Adam. Lilith objected to having to lie beneath Adam during sexual intercourse, but Adam
would have it no other way.
Interest fact:
According to a Hebrew tradition cited in Graves and Patai, God let Adam watch while he put a second
woman together. The process of anatomical assemblage was so disgusting
that Adam found the woman repulsive even though she was beautiful
when finished. God sent this first Eve away and tried again: while
Adam slept, Yahweh created the Eve found in Genesis 2 from Adam's
rib.

Does anyone have any idea how this game will play? Is it real time combat or traditional MMO fail combat, is it full looting, is there even any PvP? Crafting? Travel? Quests or open ended? We have zero info on this game.

Anarchy Online and Age of Conan are 2 of the best MMOs ever made. And I suspect unlike most of the critics above I have played both of them in addation to many other games other that WoW.
I will play this game and hope those who don't like Funcom (for whatever reason) keep playing WoW.
Funcom once again using great music to empower their trailers
Fri Apr 08 2011 9:22AM ReportNice trailer, but what about the game?
Fri Apr 08 2011 9:36AM ReportI wanna try this, I don't care about failcom's past.
Fri Apr 08 2011 9:36AM ReportNice music, but I want to see more action, just sliding cameras on landscape, and a bunch of text doesnt get me hyped.

Fri Apr 08 2011 2:20PM ReportThats good, in a few years there will beno bees on earth, inform yourself.
Fri Apr 08 2011 3:28PM ReportAnother trailer that doesn't tell us squat about the game! They are good at this! :)

Fri Apr 08 2011 8:11PM Reportwhy didn't they just do an MMO based on the longest journey/dreamfall.....
Arcadia and Stark
would have worked better. sigh.

Sat Apr 09 2011 6:41AM ReportThe bees thing makes more sense if you've been following the ARGs. Kind of. Not really.

nice looking, nice trailer. game could be interesting. With enough sandbox elements it may a blast !
Sun Apr 10 2011 7:39AM ReportNOT THE BEES!!!!!????
nice trailer, but obviously that doesn't mean anything besides it is a nice trailer.
Sun Apr 10 2011 2:02PM ReportNo world about music and the game looks new and fresh.
But..I have 980x+580sli and im still afraid if ill be able to run this game at max.
Sun Apr 10 2011 6:48PM ReportThat was pretty bad honestly, made me want to play the game less than I did before watching all the annoying flashing text.
Mon Apr 11 2011 2:53AM ReportIt's all part of the "Shift" yet to come. Wiccans know what is about to happen

Mon Apr 11 2011 6:05PM ReportIt looks like it might be good, what little I could decipher from that video.
Mon Apr 11 2011 6:32PM Report@ neopagan
I'll assume you're including my post, which was half in jest, in your holier than thou attempt at defending what is just a pretty ho-hum trailer.
Spare me that condescending attitude- and use your superior brain cells to decipher that outlandish text rather than give me crap for my opinion.
Mon Apr 11 2011 9:12PM Reportlooks interesting... will keep an eye on this one
Tue Apr 12 2011 12:52AM ReportSo...dogs and cats living together and mass hysteria?
Tue Apr 12 2011 1:46AM ReportMy comment about this : rofl
Tue Apr 12 2011 10:46AM ReportGreat video. Nice to see a game company who dares to try something a bit different.
It certainly held my interest throughout, which is rare for promo videos.
Tue Apr 12 2011 10:55AM ReportRagnar Tornquist made Anarchy Online, what im plaing for nearly 8 years now.
We have A LOT of these names and stuff already in AO, so he knows about what he is doing.
This title will be outstanding and i cant wait to get a hand on it :)
About the Vid ... that game has already started a year ago, as this photo came up.
We got some messages already :P
