The combat looks weak, but the world... man if that's fully explorable... I don't even know.
Tue Feb 28 2012 10:16AM ReportI have watched it, but i just dont get it??
is it sci fi or fantasy ?
Tue Feb 28 2012 10:46AM Reportit's anything you want to be .... but above all it's f*king brilliant !!!
Tue Feb 28 2012 11:34AM ReportThis is all, 2nd life combined with fantasy and science fiction worlds
Tue Feb 28 2012 11:37AM Reportafter Aion, i dont trust trailers anymore.....
Tue Feb 28 2012 11:39AM ReportLooks instanced.
Horrible music choice for a trailer, btw.
Tue Feb 28 2012 11:39AM ReportEh, I liked the music.
If the game is big into dance clubs and shizzle like that, its the exact music you'll find in those.
But I still have no idea what this game is going to shape into.
Tue Feb 28 2012 11:58AM Reportwich music is this?
Tue Feb 28 2012 12:00PM ReportWhat is this...
I don't even?
I think I like it?
Tue Feb 28 2012 12:22PM Report@WhiteProphet sounds like dubstep.
Tue Feb 28 2012 12:24PM Report@Khole, yes...yes it is the trash known as "Dub-Step". You can tell from the "Wubwubs". Horrible music for a trailer.
That aside, this trailer is something to be shunned because it shows us NOTHING except World Design. Other than that I'll keep an eye on it to see if anything comes of it. Otherwise it just looks like a mix between 2nd Life & Entropia Universe. Not my kind of tea tbh.
Tue Feb 28 2012 12:36PM Reportright away i thought, APB.
customization looks pretty good.
i like the trailer dubstep aswell.
Tue Feb 28 2012 1:03PM Report@ Faded - jaded much? Everything you say on this site is negative as negative can be.
Tue Feb 28 2012 2:03PM Reportlooks like they just combined some themeparks together.
one for fantasy. one for sci-fi , ect
Tue Feb 28 2012 3:06PM ReportIt's obvious not everyone likes the same kind of MMO, so it's probably just as obvious that not everyone has the same taste in music.
I for one thought the music choice, plus the editing to fit the music was much more thought out then what most MMO companies put forth in trailers.
As for the game, I have no opinion cause I'm basically clueless, but the music worked wonders for gaining my attention.
Tue Feb 28 2012 5:12PM ReportMeh, it's a trailer. I'll be more intrigued by an actual gamplay video. I love the books so I want this to be good; I'll settle for decent.
I haven't heard so I'm curious if'll they'll include some kind of level/world design into the game as it was a [small] part of the books.
Tue Feb 28 2012 5:49PM ReportCould be better then going back to WoW after GW2, Tera and SW all fail......
.. I kid I kid. Does look interesting at the least though. On the radar.
Tue Feb 28 2012 6:07PM Reportoh god.. lol go to their official site (shut down due to a possible hack as of this posting)
Tue Feb 28 2012 6:11PM ReportI thought the music choice was cool, made it seem more like a movie trailer than a mmo trailer.
Tue Feb 28 2012 11:46PM ReportIf you haven't read the books, it would be rather confusing, but basically it's sort of like a matrix type of thing, or more accuately, shadowrun/cyber punk, but in the 'online' world you can creat anything you want and be a part of any sort of theme you want. From barbarian to wizard to a group of flying monkeys, or part of Wizard of Oz, or whatever. I'm not quite sure how this game will work out. If it follows the plot of the books....The storyline will be rather lenier (afterall, it's a story that has already been told, and you'll just end up playing a part in it).
Very, very interesting. It will be very sandbox if it doesn't force the plotline from the books into the game. Otherwise it'll be rather themepark, if I understand the terms correctly. Anyway, if you haven't read the books, you should.
Wed Feb 29 2012 12:17AM ReportCharacter models need some work, but otherwise looks like its shaping up well.
Wed Feb 29 2012 6:32AM Reportmaybe you people should read or research the novels its based on
Wed Feb 29 2012 7:14AM ReportHaving read the books, and seen the trailer, I really hope they can pull it off. i'd imagine it follows some of the story arc at least.
Looks like theres sandboxy stuff there, my take is the story arc will follow the grail project...lots of combat/exploration and more realistic stuff. The non story arc will feature the sandbox/creative/social side.
Wed Feb 29 2012 7:36AM ReportThe books are astonishing, but I'm not sold on the game.
Wed Feb 29 2012 3:02PM ReportI have seen a lot of trailers for this game
Still not even a little bit sure of what the hell it is.
Thu Mar 01 2012 3:54PM ReportI thought this was a futuristic Chess game at first.
Dubstep!
Thu Mar 01 2012 10:03PM ReportDumbest music I ever heard for a trailer. The game looks like a bunch of laid off game designers from every genre of game design collaberated to make this game. I don't really see the point of it. You will be hard pressed to get true fantasy players to play this and vice versa for sci-fi. They are true to their styles, I mean you don't want sci-fi in your game if your're a true fantasy style player.
Fri Mar 02 2012 7:00PM Reportnice music for this trailer.
i like the books and i see they make some nice place from it.
i hope it come fast out....i will play it massivle^^
