in Neverwinter

didnt see this listed here  but article from 2 weeks ago

You might recall Perfect World Entertainment acquiring developer Cryptic a while back .

The developer says Neverwinter will be closer to a game like Nexon's Vindictus, where combat is controlled by mouse clicks, and where pattern recognition and reflexes are the keys to successfully murdering hordes of monsters.

Neverwinter is being built with a modified version of the same engine used for Cryptic's two most recent MMORPGs -- Star Trek Online and Champions Online.

The switch from more traditional game to MMO has resulted in the projected Neverwinter release date being pushed back to the end of 2012.

    Sounds like a horrible idea to me. Neverwinter does not need to be runined like the Star Trek IP was. 

     

    Sounds like they are just gonna make another carboncopygame with their horrible engine and put a Neverwinter skin on it just like they did with STO.,

     

    No thank you Cryptic.

     

    EDIT: Why the hell do all these good IP´s end up at Cryptic ??

    I agree. After being burned by Cryptic STO I am not touching another Cryptic product again.
