I didn't really get to put alot of time into it last night because unexpected company came over. anyway, I really really like this game! I ventured out of Russell Square last night and actually fought some real beasties and a boss! I will say this game is not easy in the least.
The boss fight I encountered (this may not even been a boss but I got some interesting stuff from him and he was pretty freakin' tall) could potentially dispel a lot of the comments on this forum. One of his attacks was the typical huge monster attack, which is pretty much smashing the ground with what looked liked arms I guess. It seemed very realistic to me, but then again, when I make opinions about games, I really don't expect much haha!
I will say right now, i've put about 30 mins into this game and its designed to be more of an
MMO then an FPS or RPG or Action game with RPG elements =P (just messin' with you 4x0n haha) But the way the game feels and plays, its very
MMO feeling. Even the way multiplayer is going to work in the finished product is going to be geared towards the
MMO feeling (Multiplayer will be free, but in order to access the cool stuff, like hardcore mode, you have to pay 9.99). Death leaves you a few choices, like MMOs, where you can wait for someone to res you, respawn at the nearest station, for you pay 20
Palladium to res right where you are.
Anyway, This just seems to be one of those love or hate games. So this is what I suggest to everyone thats reading this thread, Take into consideration of everyone's comments, atleast try it for more then 30 seconds and form your own opinion. I will post some screens sometime this week, hopefully tonight, but I have feeling the gf has plans tonight.
