CCP merged with White Wolf a couple years ago and have been working on a World of Darkness MMO ever since.
The only official word on it is that the Ambulation project in Eve is doubling as a beta for the new MMO since they'll use the same engine.
Personally I'm really looking forward to it - hoping it retains Eve's sandboxyness and elements of actual risk, though a single world is probably too much to ask for a non-space setting. Don't expect it for another couple years at least but I'm patient.
I hope they never do. For god sakes isn't this genre flooded with enough gay fantasy crap already?
The problem with that is that the genre doesn't have enough -good- fantasy stuff yet. The good games are far and between, and most of the best have been forgotten for newer more mainstream games.
Yeah but WoD is not a fantasy MMO. WoD is based on a post modern dark gothic horror genre. You won't find orcs, dwarves, elves or any other fantasy crap in that game. IMHO that makes it interesting already. :P
Games I've played/tried out:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ1, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, FFXI, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars,Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H, Star Trek Online, APB, Champions Online, FFXIV, Rift Online, GW2.
Ive ben waiting for WoD since they first talked about it
but i really want them to make another vampire the masquerade or i guess it would be vampire the requiem now since its the new World of Darkness, but i need a new vampire rpg game that doesnt suck and theirs is the only ones that dont

Well, they're not working on anything fantasy and I hope it stays that way. There's too many fantasy mmos out.
You're not afraid of the dark, are you?
