Been waiting on this for many years now. Quietly optimistic

Wow after reading about it this is like the only MMORPG that has interested me since UO.

Facebook? Boo!

Funcom though, thats the only thing that has me worried

Been watching for a while

Yeah thats the general consensus - it looks like the best concept for an MMO I have ever seen, I really hope they pull it off.
Since its run on the AoC engine, one can hope that most of the bugs are ironed out.

Looks interesting. Cool concept.

What society did you guys pick, does it even matter at this point?

No.

Dragon; balance resulting from chaos

Templar, I believe in justice.

I'm really looking forward to this. I H.P. Lovecraft-inspired games and I Ragnar Tornquist writing.

According to the personality test I'm joining the Illuminati, I like power.

where's the gameplay?


even the official website is very vague on what this game even is

For there will be justice.... Templar

Preach it brother

Deliberate Chaos appeals to me. I recall Ragnar saying somewhere that Dragon is the real wild-card group - messing with everyone else's shit. I like that idea.

Man, they've been developing this for yonks. Hope it does well.

Cool idea, I very much doubt it'll be *amazing* but would give it a spin for shits and giggles

Also, the war doesn't look very secret, ****loads of bastards running around shooting/beating each other up :P

Dragons!

I love that there is no levels and that you can effectively use/wear anything you want.
