If this really is the same game I remember beta testing yonks ago then it's undergone a huge makeover judging by those screenshots and the text.
All I remember of that time is handgliders, really awful and glitchy combat abilities (and combat) and a huge world with nothing in it.
What they're saying now sounds great though. I'll keep an eye on it, but to say I'm dubious that the disaster Dark and Light was could become a winning formula is stretching it big time.
I don't like that the important part seems to be the size of the world.... noone cares if its that much bigger than Azeroth. I hope they have more to brag about.

People who want to explore and get lost care. The world has to be populated though.

The screenshots in the articles are not from Dark and Light.
EDIT: It seems indeed it's not, it's a game called Darkness and Light, however here http://www.mmoculture.com/2011/03/darkness-and-light-epic-mmo-in-making.html you can see a parachute shot, dragons etc. I'm confused now
This is the wrong game!!! The article is talking about another game MMORPG/RTS called "Darkness and Light", this canned MMORPG is called "Dark and Light", http://www.mmoculture.com/2011/03/darkness-and-light-epic-mmo-in-making.html

DArk And Light was released. Game sucked but had great concepts. Game drowned from dev incompetency.
Snailgames bought everything what was left from game and bassically redid the game on entirelly new engine with new features and etc.
Its the same game concepts and same game role, but in gameplay and everything else, an entirelly new beast.
In a sense, THIS IS the same game, BUT redone from ZERO
# A GRIM, ODD, ARCANE SKY
# ANY GOD, I MARK SACRED
# A MASKED CRY ADORING
# A DREAMY, SICK DRAGON
That Article is pretty amazing, there's Archeage, and then this, gosh, next year is a though choice for MMO option..
So What Now?
If they end up managing this, I'm definitely going to play this game again. Dark & Light had great concepts but a poor execution.
Add me on Steam!

Well I never.
