AOC - New video interview - Part I

[Dreven]

A new video interview with one of the game's developers is out. It's a little over 15 minutes long and has some good info in there.

Just watched it, I want to play!

[Mist]

That was pretty fucking amazing.

[Dzul]

Man I hope they dont drop the ball with the damn siege wars and PVP endgame. One interesting thing in this interview is they said you will have to collect resources to build a city so that could add for some interesting conflict. It will be a nice change from the "LETS PVP FOR LEWTS" that WoW has.

That video just reinforce the belief that the game is going to be amazing for the eye candy. The animation look terrific. I hope the gameplay is deep and mature to go along with the rated M visuals.

I would love to see the robust politicing when guilds are competing for limited resources. If they take the best points of EVE Online and don't lag in siege warfare, this game will be very addictive.

[fuffalo]

Part of me wants to admit that I am dying to play this game, and I think it's going to be amazing - but I've said that way too many times, about way too many games. I'm just trying to ignore all the hype till October.

That being said, as usual, I was quite impressed with this latest video.

[Lonin]

Trying not to get my hopes up. I've been burned too many times and AoC is setting a very high bar

I'm surprised by how short their actual gameplay beta is going to be. It's looking like the general beta won't even start until approximately 3 months before release. I hope they have the gameplay and content down, because I don't think that's enough time to really have a fleshed out beta.

[WillzZz]

I really want the open pvp to be as good as it sounds. My number one hope is that it will actually be Mature, and they can make every facet of the game in a way that isn't just "LAWL LETS COPY WOW". Atleast someone is trying =/

[Thhin]

Sex and Prostution FTW.

[tad10]

The constant blood spurts are looking more and more annoying. Hopefully you can just turn it off.

Looks great -- still some issues with some combat animations. Who knows how it'll actually play. I haven't seen much on the PvE -- is there some PvE video out there besides the death to a bear one?

Needs a monk class though.

[Soygen]

Every game needs a monk class!

[Draegan]

You and your silly monk class.

Is it me or does the Project Manger look like he's 12?

And fuck me, but I'll have to go out and buy a dx10 rig now.

The shorter the betas the better IMO. All games are going to have bugs. I'd rather be involved in a game where no one knows anything than all the beta players already having progression mapped out for the time it goes live.

Some of that footage was really impressive. The environments look very lush, and have a certain aura of mystery about them. I'd like to see some dungeons next, and learn some more about their plans for raiding.
