LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity. I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already
If this is a good original IP sci-fi avatar-based MMO sandbox I will be pleased... We need more of those.
Saw an article it's "future fantasy".
"
So, we started looking at the things out there that have influenced us as artists. Mainly, American and European comics and American and Japanese animation. Across all of these were some recurring themes, such as expressive characters with high-personality, and lush beautiful backgrounds.
We knew we were a future fantasy game - players will see both fantasy and sci-fi elements in our world and our gameplay. We also knew we'd need to be able to tell a huge variety of stories, everything from intense drama to mind-blowing action to humorous tales. There were a few influences that we really focused on. Animated films such as Atlantis, The Secret of Nimh, and Princess Mononoke really nailed the overall look of the style. We know that our game was for adults so we studied shows like Naruto and Full Metal Alchemist to see how they balanced a unique visual style with stories that had both humor and drama. Lastly we looked at comics such as Hellboy, Battle Chasers, and Tank Girl to influence our balance of technology and fantasy."
Why do they think secrecy, instead of ADVERTISEMENT OF PRODUCT, is the right way to go? Seriously?
How many folks are sick and tired of the Secrecy for these flegling MMO's that think Secrecy breeds interest?
Maybe because they have confidence in their idea, and don't feel the need to jump on the industries obsessive bandwagon of hyping products long before they're ready for release?
To SB fans, please stop making our demographic look bad.Stop invading threads that have nothing to do with sandboxes.
two screen shots that are probably rendered. nothing to be excited about. i've seen it too many times. lots of wow over screenshots and then the product released is not worth playing. meh!
Distopia, there is a difference between "hyping/overhyping" and NOT HYPING at all.
Dont know how long this game has been in Development and as of last night, didnt even know it existed. Only thing I know about it is I have seen 2 SS's...
Yeah, this is gonna work out for the best.../sarcasm.

They caved to fans begging for years to give them a small taste before the big reveal at Gamescom next week when all the info will start to roll out.
Skeaser, next week is too late, regardless of what Info they give out.
For a game that is "supposedly" to be release "soon"(its been in Development a long time), do yu honestly think this game has a playerbase what so ever?
Enough of a Playerbase to make a profit?? Noone knows enough about this game to be a "fan" let alone have any type of PLayerbase.

What's the rush? Hype builds quickly and I doubt it will release until the middle of next year at the earliest. It's been in development a long time but that includes building/hiring the team, fleshing out the ideas, and all that other stuff. It's not like it's launching next week.
