MOAR DAKKA! Seriously, the game looks really good. Good graphics, interesting systems, badass giant guns. All developed by Obsidian, a company with a reputation for quality. Heck they turned Bethesda's disastrous treatment of the Fallout franchise (Elder scrolls with guns) into something playable and enjoyable with New Vegas.
If nothing else, the game's story and lore should be excellent. Obsidian has always done really well with that, rivaling (and surpassing in some cases) Bioware's pre Mass Effect 3 (read: while they still had Drew Karpyshyn) writing quality. Alpha Protocol is worth playing for the story and character interaction alone, despite the flawed and unbalanced game play.
Oh, and the fact that they're offering closed beta access with even the lowest tier founder's pack, something which a lot of these games don't do, shows that they really do care about gamers first, profits second.
TL;DR: Great looking game made by people who see gamers as, well, gamers and not dollar signs. What's not to like?
AN' DERE AIN'T NO SUCH FING AS ENUFF DAKKA, YA GROT! Enuff'z more than ya got an' less than too much an' there ain't no such fing as too much dakka. Say dere is, and me Squiggoff'z eatin' tonight!
We are born of the blood. Made men by the blood. Undone by the blood. Our eyes are yet to open. FEAR THE OLD BLOOD.

Same reason as the last three times!
Seems like it's going to be a great game to play!
I've been following Skyforge for the past month or two. As a player of many MMOs and many RPG games on both console and PC, this MMO has struck me as something different from what I've experienced before. The idea that you can only have one character per account that can switch classes is both an exciting new way to imagine MMORPG playstyle and a innovative blending of MOBA style gameplay with traditional MMORPG elements. All of this has me excited to experience the game first hand to see just how this system will work. What has me most excited about a chance to participate in the upcoming CBT is the opportunity to get to see how class changing will work with PvE combat and missions.
Also, the system of prestige in place of levels with a follower system intrigues me. I want to see how that plays out.
While I've got no desire to become a god (too much responsibility, I would sell the world for a good piece of chocolate), there are other parts I'm really looking forward too.
The main thing I'm looking forward to seeing in action is the class system. Myself being someone with a rather short attention span, in other games I tend to switch a lot between characters to keep trying new things. The skyforge system which allows you to switch inbetween fights sounds great for that reason.
Another part I'm interested in seeing is the pantheon. I haven't decided yet if I like the clan system or not, as I would like to have some more info about the consequences of being in different clans in the same pantheon, but It certainly sounds interesting. The social part is always important for me in games, as I like hearing stories from all over the place. Having a place to just hang around with pantheon and relax is something I often miss in other games. As you can guess I'm more of a social gamer
I'm really looking forward to exploring this game with it's systems and awesome looking graphics. Let's hope that this game will be up to all the expectations. But we will see that for ourselves.
Bye bye everyone and cya in skyforge
I tested Allods Online in the early stages of closed beta and played for several years afterwards. Seeing another promising product from Allods Team coupled with the team-up with Obsidian had me registering on the site back in March of 2014. It's got over a dozen classes, an extremely expansive character skill tree that rivals Path of Exile, engaging combat and promising boss battles, an attempt to step away from the standard "class trinity" by using support classes, and it looks like a AAA MMO to boot. Skyforge is the first game in years that I've actively followed for such a long time and not gotten disillusioned with that that in itself is refreshing. My girlfriend and I are very active gamers and I got her interested in Skyforge over the summer last year and she's even started watching some of the twitch streams of the Russian beta, so I'm looking forward to being a god standing beside her goddess as we slay the hordes that want to destroy Aelion. I have high (but not unrealistically high) hopes for Skyforge and look forward to making Aelion my home for a long time.
Peace, Love, and Skyforge
I'm also between semesters right now, so i got a lot of time to play the beta.
I am always looking for games to play with my friends, especially lately because we haven't been playing much.
And Skyforge managed to catch my attention, as soon as I stumbled upon it the first time a few months back. I really liked the overall theme of this game. I've always been fascinated with ancient gods and their myths and legends, they're just so vivid and full of beauty, haha. Back then there were already screenshots on their website, but most of it was just concept arts. Still I was really impressed by how much detail and consideration went into this game. They even consulted the community for potential classes, etc.. And the graphics and the overall aesthetic of the game, man, I couldn't really believe this was going to be a free2play game. Being occupied with other things I never managed to get access to the alpha/beta phases. Much to my regret since I learned about more and more great aspects of the game like action combat or the unique class and leveling system. Mostly though the large amount of unique classes (especially the Kinetic, it looks too awesome to be real!!) and the customizability of both gameplay and visuals kept me interested in Skyforge.
And I really hope to confirm all those positives aspects in the Beta while helping to improve the game to eventually have lots of fun with my friends and everyone else who is going to play this game!
GOOD LUCK everyone!!
It's simple, the Gunner class!!
Mortar for everyone!
Im excited for Skyforge because of what they are trying to bring to the genre. The industry has been stagnant lately and most of the new offerings have been mediocre at best. Im always excited for someone who thinks outside the box and willing to take a risk on new game design.
I also really love classless or no class restriction systems. It was what made the Final Fantasy MMOs so great, being able to change class on the fly and fill any gap in a group/party without having to roll a ton of alts.
All die, so die well.
