Has potential for sure, but just not my cup of tea. Definitely hope it works our for those interested in this type of game though, since Obsidian was involved in it. I've had enough of linear theme parks, waiting for the mass wave of hardcore sandboxes with open-world pvp.

Wow so I'm in beta I enjoy this game I hated the back and forth get quest do go back turn in world of Warcraft. Cough cough but I loved dungeons raids and battle grounds. So skyforge gives me most of what I want minus battle grounds, I have tried the two I have unlocked not good at all. The were plain as if there has been no attention paid to it. But as for quest system and overall game play I am blown away, the way I see it I cut on my curse voice client call up some friends ask them to get on skyforge and run some dungeons, and hopefully the make big improvements on PvP and then we will q those. So the games in beta so tell the Dev. Team what you want improved and stop complaining I paid 20 bucks so like others were funding them so they have a team to perfect and as for cash shop I hope it just sells costumes so I can look how I want to. Good game keep up the work
This game is the most mediocre thing ever. It's not an MMORPG at all. It's a lobby game where you join small lobby worlds, mostly consisting of corridors. There is no world, there is no crafting, there is no player interaction, no social aspects whatsoever. You could compare it to warframe, but a lesser version of it.
Performance is also plain bad, but I guess it's still CBT..
This game seems to offer nothing that would pull anyone away from the current games out there (ESO, GW2, Rift, WOW, SWTOR, etc). They all offer more and most of us aren't looking for lobby games. It will appeal to a small niche that just want to try something new. They will get bored and jump to the next game. The graphics, at least in the video, aren't as great as I thought they would be after reading the article here.
The only thing other than the voices that kinda threw me off was the graphics. Ingame screens on their website advertise some very nice and crisp graphics, however what you experience ingame (given I have a monster of a PC) doesnt even begin to compare. Im hoping that is simply due to this being in Beta still, but we shall see. Other than that great review, the game does have alot of potential.
Honestly this is a great game, i see a lot of complaints BUT you have to keep in mind it is CB1. Last time the servers were up it did not even have customization. They will add more but i think at this time they want to make sure the core game is functioning.

Um, probably not the best comparison, since despite critical reception Destiny made SO MUCH MONEY and was one of the best selling games of the year. I don't think Skyforge will get there.
Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.
Originally posted by DMKano I'd say it's a pass for me after closed beta. Zero hook for me after about 15 hours of play, I honestly thought the combat would be a lot more interesting - it's not. And there is nothing else to do except combat.
game doesnt hook you, maybe if upon released, the combat physics, graphics could be polished and the entire "tutorial" could be made shorter and more interesting................

Same, can't believe I paid what I paid.../sigh Ah well, I look at it as I helped put food on someone's table this week, that helps take the sting out of it.
The game looks alright, but it seems like a hack-n-slash combat system. I can't stand games where AOE is the primary form of combat. The lobby system is also a huge turn-off. Restricted exploration is another reason i probably won't try this game. It sounds like it's basically the way swtor did it.

Still having fun. Just a few tweaks and I am happy.
There Is Always Hope!
It's nice to be self sufficient and have the disposable income to try something new. Nothing wrong with that right?
Purchased and played this today.
Not happy.

Hmm...combat looks fun but that's the worst dialog I have seen in a long while!
Why tell them they are not immortal? Who are the Verde? Why do you need reinforcements after one mob? (That's as far as I got)
However I agree with Bill M If the game is fun that's whats really important. Dialog can be easily fixed.
