Staff Writer Carolyn Koh took the opportunity to talk to Daniel Lin, the Manager of Overseas Marketing for Voyage Century, about the upcoming Pirate-MMO from IGG.

MMORPG.com: We understand that Voyage Century is a 3D Nautical MMORPG set in the 15th to 18th century. Is it geographically contained or does it span the world?


Daniel Lin: Voyage Century combine the information about the history and geography relating to the voyage in the century of 15--18 and form a side of history spanning 300 years. Voyage Century will make the players feel the real geography and create all kinds of histories in the game. There are two spatial proportions: real proportion of the city scene and the sea battle. Furthermore, the sea map in the earth which is minimized by the virtual time in the game.

The full Q&A is here.

Life''s too short to fold your underwear

The interview was a bit hard to read but this game seems like a really kewl idea. Graphics are passable if not decent but could use some shininess to them. All in all, this game could have a definite niche depending on the final product. I look forward to hearing more about it in the future.

Is this a point and click game?

Yes, yes it is...  You get used to it very quickly though.  It's also the most appropriate form of travel on the high seas.  You can just click and set your heading.  I usually don't like that aspect of asian games, but it's not bothersome here.

I'm doing the same.  Thing is, PotBS doesn't hit until AT LEAST this summer.  VC hits Open Beta Friday.  You do the math...  :p

  Yeah, see what you mean, but point n' click just doesn't do it for me anymore. I want a higher level of UI interaction. Anyway, I'm waiting for PotBS as well.

My Aggro brings all the mobs to the yard.



When I hear the name Voyage Century all I can think about is the repeated spam attempts from them in the forums.
