Asked them to upload the Kickstarter video to YouTube in HD, and they delivered:

As we approach any Kickstarter funding goal (original or stretch), we'll have a new stretch goal put up. Most likely we will go past 75% sometime this evening, so tomorrow is likely a good day for a stretch goal.

Didn't see it discussed, but it's basically confirmed in the Kickstarter FAQ that they're using Unity Engine:

The biggest issue with this idea is that EK Fealty is completely separate from guilds. While it's likely that guild mates will swear fealty to each other, it's not enforced. Even worse - you can swear fealty to unlimited numbers of kings. To be honest, at this point my care for Eternal...

This has yet to be adequately answered. We know victories will provide 'trophies' that give advantages But, while I assume the most powerful guilds will likely spread their resources across multiple campaigns, what about guilds that solely play FFA where they can't import gear from the EK...

The Developers have been pretty vocal about this game not being for everyone, and that there is going to be some risk involved for everyone, no matter how much they want to minimize if. That said, we know there are PvE elements like mobs go kill and collect resources from, and certainly just...

1. I'd like to see something like Chivalry-esque combat, animation locked basic attacks with blocking as well as activated abilities. I do agree that 10-12 seems like the sweet spot for common used abilities (with 6-12 more for long duration buffs, item clickies, summons etc.) 2. I'm still...

They said in the Kickstarter comments that VIP will likely cost $10-$15 per month.

Well, there's a pretty big difference between having a minority equity partner, and being beholden to a big box publisher.

The way I figure it, I've probably waste more than $200 just keeping my MMO subscriptions active while hardly playing them. If it all pans out, I'll gave $900+ worth of subscriptions.

I sort of agree. They're hyping this as a 'Throne War' simulator, but the only kingdoms seem to really be in the Eternal Kingdom, which a completely personal and not fought over. So who are we vying with for control? They really haven't talked about leadership within the Dying Worlds. Who is...

We've seen jumping in the gameplay videos already. Although the jump height looked a bit extreme, hah. As I understand it, this is only in the Eternal (Personal) Kingdoms. If some dude is an asshole in his kingdom, you can basically just opt to stay in yours and never be affected by him. To...

They just opened up another Limited Tier. Same content as the $30, but costs $34 instead.

They've already discussed this mechanic in their press reviews with the Bloodstone ruleset. Now for my personal interest: User Interface. Do they have a current UI prototype, or is it still in design? When might we get a glimpse? Have they decided whether they're going to allow user...

Uh oh. Someone got busted by the wife.

You're right. Fuck it, I'm going $215.

I'm in for $150. Debating going to the next tier, but it won't get me playing the game any quicker, so still unsure.

Not sure how useful a cloth map is in a game with procedurally generated worlds... As for whether alpha/beta will spoil the experience, if the PvP is worth a damn, it shouldn't become boring that easily. Theme park MMOs get spoiled because the content is basically static. The experiences...

Met a teleporting hacker tonight. Luckily he was hell bent on trying to melee me, so after I blew him away with my shotgun I immediately logged off.

It is the only MMO on the horizon I have any remaining hope for.

If this game fails...

Archetypes are a Race/Class combo. So each class is race locked, however it appears that some races make up multiple archetypes (Confessors, Knight, and Templar all appear to be human). We don't know how many Archetypes are planned, but the Character Creation prototype indicated 12-24...

Not surprised someone from NorCal is such a doucher.

All aboard!

MMOFTW - Skyforges Pantheons Revealed - YouTube MMORPG.com was at ArtCraft's HQ last week and had hands-on with the game, and will be able to talk about it this Tuesday, with video.

It will blow my mind if this game is way further along than anyone thinks. I remember a lot of people thought that was going to be the case for EverQuest Next. We saw how that turned out, though. Just read their FAQs and the MMORPG interview, it's pretty much all we know. Crowfall: MMO -...

This is boxing. This is big drama show. Murray is going to be pissing blood for the next week, I'm fairly sure.

Surely they still have StoryBricks? I mean, they must have purchased/licensed the engine, right? This has NOTHING to do with 'copying Blizzard', and everything to do with just making a good game/good design decisions.

Peter Quillin may be the worst duck in recent history. I wouldn't mind Cotto being the champ if he actually wanted to fight people at Middleweight. Instead, he's going to fight as low as he can at a catchweight. Not to mention, he's such a diva he prevented the fight vs Alvarez.

Even though I've spent hundreds of dollars on this game, I refuse to buy ultimate skins on principle. The price points are just so ridiculous to me. I mean, you can buyentire fucking gamesfor the price they charge for 1 skin.

I seriously doubt Cotto wants any of GGG. He'll just make excuses about GGG not being a big enough name. Cotto should not be a Middleweight champion.

Big drama show.

Raph Koster's first post in the official forums:

I want to believe this. But I think your leg is being pulled. 1/3 the Archetypes don't even have in-game models, it seems.

I can't believe it's actually happening. Yes, it's 5+ years too late, but they're still easily #1 and #2 P4P.

Not that there was much doubt, but early backers for the crowdfunding campaign will be able to get in earlier beta cycles.

Not really. There's a pretty big difference between having 15 unique abilities vs 5 unique abilities, and being level 1 with +5 to stats and level 60 with +500 to stats.

Hah. A few years back we had Delta Force installed on our classified mission planning computers. We had some pretty fun LAN parties with it on long exercise weekends.
