Yeah I basically hate it because

a) its a direct competitor
b) the graphics suck
c) I had my website up with all of the same stuff (and a bit more) they are claiming to have before them..and they are "stealing it" (yes I know they probably didnt read my site, but I feel like it)
d) they have Psi which is like magic to me...and I dont like unrealistic p-a.

It looks dorky as hell, I second the utter crap notion. I suppose it helps give you, Dark, a design goal, 'don't look like them!'

Although, it may be bad for you, because that reminded me about how much I wouldn't really like to play a PA mmog.

Mainstream-wise speaking, of course.

How about putting your website in your profile and/or sig?

poll most PA fans...Im betting over 90% of them DONT want psi-magic bullshit in their games.

I guess I was nitpicking Smile.
Regardless, the psi aspect of that game will probably play like Everquest's casting classes just like every other MMORPG ever released.

Well, I've seen the trailer and almost forgot to reply.

It didn't look so bad really, but when the "man without name" suddenly whipped out the nail club and started fighting the giant worm with it... that was just ridiculous. The size of the worm only increased the hilarity. Other games let you fight small rodents, this game lets you fight giant worms.. which look like they could eat the player in two bites but are quickly killed with a small club. Also, did the whorm whack the player with its head? Dickslapping attack! Pure comedy genius! lol

Well, psi was not useable by char. It was used on him by the Master... not an alternative way to cast fireballs Smile.
