Looks good and fun. It's going to be wild if the MMO made by the pyramid scheme guy ends up being successful.

Looks good for a pre-Alpha. I am most interested in seeing this game once it has actual players playing it. How is this node system going to really work when you have a thousand people running around.

Early Access pre-alpha started in late September 2019, and alpha is starting it looks like sometime in the middle of December 2020. So that is not too bad compared to other MMORPG kickstarters that have been in pre-alpha for 6+ years.

New alpha one video with an extremely long boss fight. It's a raid boss and they're trying to kill it with a small party. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_hsJPB8y7k the combat and effects are very flashy and pretty

This does look cool, but how is it that this game is nearing 5 years in development and its still no where close to finished and just looks like a higher texture resolution version of Guild Wars 2?

And I dunno that we’ll get any real clarity on that stuff until there are large scale play tests.

Cardboard Fox posted:This is probably the best video they've shown so far, but I'm still not seeing the main draw. It just looks like an Alpha Guild Wars 2. They're not. Cause tertiary gameplay loops are hard to showcase even when they are well though out and showed off well. It's why games that tend to strongly rely on them like grand strategy games tend to have massive CG trailers with basically no gameplay. And I'm very skeptical about the whole node system as a whole being anything special. Everything we know about it so far basically describes it as "these quests are locked off until this gradually depleting bar is filled up to X amount." Like the only MMO with a tertiary gameplay loop that actually sounds innovative that's in development that I know of is Crowfall with the whole "constantly resetting world" thing that was somewhat courted by a few games like PoTBS and HnH, but unfortunately that game seems to be completely hampered by garbage grade primary gameplay loops. This, this at least from the trailers seems to have at least a mediocre primary gameplay loop (certainly no Black Desert or Blade & Soul), but it's tertiary loop doesn't seem to be very promising which is kind a problem given how much they've been banking on it.

They seem weirdly proud about the combat design, but at the same time spout things like "we're still in alpha so this will all change". But I keep asking my self "will it though? because it doesn't look like you recognize what's wrong". At a real base level, the netcoding looks off, the animations / slidey-ness of everything makes it look really weird. Furthermore, they've apparently got quests in the game but I'm yet to see anything that isn't just like: walk here and kill X or do Y- So I wonder what is actually going to keep people interested because it's unlikely they'll even do quests more fun than say WoW. In a vacuum everything looks alright so far, but everything together doesn't feel right. Like the overall aesthetic is off, as if it's just a mish-mash of designs that don't really feel like they exist in the same IP. Them also touting this 250vs250 and saying that they've had it working and they're thinking about taking it higher is really concerning to me because I genuinely do not believe it in the slightest. I'm super worried this entire game is just going to end up doing weird loving phasing because 500 players all in the same spot casting spells we all know how that's going to go, they haven't just invented new tech that can magically handle it.

This game looks pretty cool and I hope it doesn’t totally suck. The art is rad and the abilities look fancy, imo it looks much better than Guild Wars 2 which has always felt “off” to me. Hopefully they can nail the netcode for the combat because it’s so critical to any game feeling good to play.

Yeah, those skills actually look really good, lots of mobility and status changes in there and not just "deal damage to one guy, deal damage to two guys, deal damage over time". If the rest of the ability sets keep pace with this I'm actually going to be pretty excited to play the game. Hopefully the choice of secondary archetype is impactful too.

Some of them look like they will feel good to press which a lot of mmos have a hard time nailing. Like everything feels “whooshy” in many modern mmos.
