Check this video out. You will see how a couple of mobs look like and a person in first player mode running around in one city. It look really great. The first player mode is not finish yet and the crosshair is a placeholder. But it looks great! The mobs look really promising!

The alpha will starts the end of this month and they expect the release to be summer 2009. They are using the unreal engine so they save a massive amount of time in development.

The game will be first player mode only (except when you ride, then 3 person).

"I struggle to find the words that negate my meaning. I fail to comprehend what message is given"

They are basicly just talking about that Mortal is about Freedom and is very different from WoW... They also talk about that the finascial crise dont affect them and they have their budget set that they work after. Its just local news about the gaming industry in south Sweden.

Looks really nice :)

 It´s not just the trailer, well first the trailer is showed then interview in swedish and they show a couple of mobs allmost finished (only texture missing) that look really cool and they also show a person in first player view running around in a city at the harbor.

 

Yes, it looks great!

Star Vault is the developer. After seeing this I bought some more stocks. The company is only valued to around $5 million. And Funcom was valued $300 million at release. If this game get just 50k subscribers. This will be a hugh success! I bet it will get much more than that.

 Darkfall has an outdated graphic and I don´t like the concept of guns and canons and flying boats. The graphic is very bad made in Darkfall. 

Mortal dont have gunpowder at all.

First person mode should be left to the realm of FPS games.  It just does not work in an MMO.  People like to see what they are wearing, otherwise it is an exercise in futility to gather or make such.

Hence, you can kiss this game off to another failure to understand the genre.

Though you are probably just trying to sound cool...

I would LOVE to take you up on this and would openly discuss odds and the best way to hold money in escrow.  I would probably take action up to $500.

Though the only people who actually bothered to respond after trying to make this tough guy arguement ended up backing out of the bets in the past after DF did things like release videos and beta announcements, so wouldnt surprise me if this was no different.  Funny how easy it is to prove how full of it people are.

"The monsters are tough. I was looking for a challenge, but these things are just too damn smart." -DF Beta Tester

"If people were dismissing it, then they wouldn't be talking about it. The well-meaning gamers root for efforts that try to raise the bar. So who's left? It's so easy being a skeptic." -Tasos
