Seeing as you're pretty good at finding weird shit on the net, I assume that most of you've
already heard of this game, but yeah. For those that haven't, here goes:
http://www.tcos.com/The Chronicles of Spellborn (TCoS) is an MMO under development by Spellborn NV using the
renowned Unreal© Engine™. Players take the role of heroes in a post-apocalyptic fantasy
setting where a vast adventure unfolds in an authentic living world.Yeah it kinda looks like World of Warcraft (kinda cartoony and Tim Burtonesque), but it has some
cool ideas. Haven't read everything, so I prolly don't know half of it though.
The whole design kinda works around the battle system, which looks to be pretty "manual". Ya
have to target the enemy similiar to a shoot 'em um before you start punching and while doing this
there's a combo-meter-thingie in the bottom where you choose what kind of attack to use.
Oh yeah, and they skipped stats on armor, so it's all for the looks. And to "delete" grinding, there
seem to be two kinds of exp (PEP points given when killing that give you stats bonuses and
"normal" EXP given when completing quests to Lvl Up with.. or something). You also get some
statues and do quests in the past or something.. erm.. just visit the site and tell us what you
think. Since the uploader won't work, here's the link to the screens and artwork (which btw is
pretty sweet).
ScreensArtOh and it's not released yet.. heh. There's some videos of it scattered here and there on the site too.
