It's already kind of been done. Xenogears, anyone?

The races in this game are going to be horribly unbalanced. Lets see... humans, elves or... giant robots. Hmmm... which would I pick?

A co-worker of mine has been playing this for a while.. I think it's a Korean import MOG. Frankly watching him play reminds me of early EQ - walk up to non-mobile enemy, slash slash slash - rinse, repeat.

This game will be awesome. I hope I get in the beta.

Yup, it's a Korean import MMORPG, pretty successful there and in China. It could be a decent game, but all of my experiences with Korean MMOG imports so far have been negative - as far as the playerbase and gameplay go. Grind grind grind... I'll probably give it a go all the same; they tend to be fun for a month or so.

If it IS the same as the one my co-worker is playing, trust me nobody here will like it. It makes Lineage 2 seem like Morrowind as far as grinding goes. I don't think I've ever even seen my co-worker talk to anyone ever. Just kills anime monsters (not good looking, either) over and over and over...

More like an Escaflowne (http://www.anime.net/escaflowne/mecha/fanelia/escaflowne/) ripoff, but of course, this is a game.

Oddly enough, that's the first thing I thought of when I saw the site as well.

As for not talking to anyone, I can hardly blame him. I played Lineage 2 for a few weeks on and off, I tried to communicate a bit but there wasn't much point. Less than half the people I was playing with (on US servers) could speak english, less than half them would actually talk back. Aaand 90% of them were griefers.

I was kinda hoping it would have Giant Robots in a MMO.

Oh well, I will just wait for a MMO set in the Firefly universe.

That is NOT a good thing.

Saw this game in action in Korea... looks a bit "grind grind grind" (like so many Korean games).
