Hence, you can kiss this game off to another failure to understand the genre.
Actually, first person actually sells immersion a lot better then 3rd. It is also an alternative to having magical invisible stealth, and is a major step towards games without traditional archetypes. 1st Person is also greater at building tension/excitement during exploration.
One of the greatest problems in the MMO community is a fear of change. Yet everyone calls out for it. The genre needs to evolve. By no means is that me saying Sandbox is that answer, since that is actually one of the original concepts. But hell even beat'em action games evolved, they adapted single player RPG aspects.
And personally, the game has never been about oogling my character in their new armor, it is about the adventures I have in that armor. For a genre that is about character developement its community, generally speaks, is awfully terrified of the change.
Also could someone Youtube that video for me, I can't seem to view it
I gotta say, those of you who make the claim about "the NCsoft devs" and how they are not as good as the cryptic team; you do realize that pretty much the entire cryptic team was brought over to NcSoft and stayed on CoH save maybe one person.
And not many people liked the way Jack handled the game anyway.
I've been kinda tempted myself, simply to fill that starwars need till SWTOR is released, also I am lacking an MMO at the moment.
I don't think the idea of considering SWG as a tie you over is all that ridiculous. The important thing is to remember it is just a tie over so you can't really complain to much that it isn't the game you want. I'll probably flip a coin tomorrow while I am out to decide if I want to just be tied over.
Thank you for beating us over the head with your rapid darkfall fanboism. First off, you are judging combat based on screenshots that show no movement or UI. To a bit further with the combat thing the developers have already stated they want to do something different with the combat system instead of the traditional method.
As far as the guildwars clone thing, it has already been stated that the game will not be pure instance but there will be some for certain parts of the story. The story driven concept they keep driving at sounds like all the did is make quests that have more substance and are a full blown adventure/story instead of just a means of leveling and filling time.
All we know is there WILL be pvp and nothing more so your assumption about a Battlegrounds ridden game has no foundation to stand on.
You've done you part as a good little darkfall fan and trolled another game now go to your forum a full fledge Darkfall Fanboy, you have worked hard to earn your new title.

There was nothing casual about FFXI
