Dauntless News - The Dauntless team has sent out a brand new trailer that shows off some pretty cool combat. Characters enhance their weapons, dodge and attack both an owl-like monster and one that can roll up ala armadillo-style to charge at its attackers with icebergs flowing alongside. It's one you've got to see.

Read the full story here

    Saw that mega hammer, shrugged and stopped watching the rest of the vid.

    They are sort of taking a page out of Tera with "BAM's".

    I just don't get the whole melee weapons that need power.
    Like Skyrim? Need more content? Try my Skyrim mod "Godfred's Tomb."

    It's pretty clear none that have commented have any idea of the type of game this is.

    But what ever, be pigeonholed into your limited video game views, I'll and others like me will continue to enjoy games.

    What type of game is it?

    Well beyond looking very amateurish, I did not see anything that separates this from any other game in genre.

    Again you did zero research.

    I'll point you in a quick direction with one title of another game that the devs have specifically said they are pulling inspiration from.

    Monster Hunter.

    There are very few if any games on console and PC that come close to the type of game Monster Hunter is.

    I'll let you do the rest of the search to educate yourself.

    People in the comments must not get that this is a Monster Hunter type game and not a normal MMO.

    It is obvious what it is, that does not changed the fact that it is still amateurish.

    It is actually the way games are moving as hot-bar type combat has become overly boring and over-done.

    If you do you research on Phoenix Labs (http://www.phxlabs.ca/) you'll see the entire team is nothing close to amateurish, not like you are in a place to say that anyways. Also if you watch his GDC talk: http://gdcvault.com/play/1024081/Animating-Dauntless-Slaying-AAA-Animation if you think PHXL is "amateurish" you have no idea about game development. If you look at their twitter, AAA title devs that either people from the team worked with or know are very excited for this title. But hey Ozmodan, no one is forcing you to look at this game, I'm sure the "amateurish" developers won't miss you either.

    I zoned out and glazed over.
    That is unfortunate, because likely everyone will be playing this game except you. This is pre-Alpha footage, there are very few, if any games that are this functional or decent looking at a pre-Alpha stage. I'm sure when this game goes into Open Beta which is planned for fall 2017, you will likely be eating these words.

    I know I have tried to solve this problem for myself by mapping everything to 12 button mouse and such and do a passable job but the minute I am responsible for another player's life in healing and such it does not work well and I have to give up. Then I am reduced to playing solo or classes that do not require me to support and I inevitably end up leaving the game.

    Too old to move too fast so this is the best I can do since games are going in this direction action and PvP both of these things do not make me happy but since I enjoy gaming I give it the old college try.

    Liked everything i saw until i noticed a "somersault" that one dumb idea is enough to turn me right off of a game.
    the odds of someone actually using a somersault to dodge an attack has to be less than .1% so why do some games use it,makes no sense to me.A simple jump out of the way dodge is what i am looking for aka Unreal Tournament style.
    Other than that,it looks good but i am sure within time i would get tired of non controlled combat,meaning tons of running around,it is not very relaxing to me and when i play mmorpg's i like to feel relaxed.

    I prefer intense action type combat in fps's where your only real purpose in the game is the action combat.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
