Graphics are polished and it looks fantastic, can't wait for more details. RPG obviously but any chance of MMO in there?
Some people really think it's a MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game), because it resembles WoW (World of Warcraft). We (Toucharcade Members) don't know if it's acually going to be a MMORPG, we just assume it.
If this is a MMORPG then it is going to blow ravensword out of the water. I hope it doesn't but thats probably the reality.
Lol, pretty old game too, been playing since it first came out =) Yeah it does.. Worth buying looks like, even if it's not a mmorpg. Why does this sound so fimiliar when you said (i know one )? Oh yes, I said that earlier on a different post , so you got that information too didn't you?
Here's something from Appgamer, interview thingy by Jamin Smith done Dec.10, 09: In an interview with QuantumSquid Interactive, we managed to squeeze a few words out of Dane Emerson about the studio's upcoming RPG. The yet-to-be-named RPG shares a similar aesthetic to that of Blizzard's MMO-behemoth, World of Warcraft, but unfortunately little else is known at this stage. Dane did have the following to say however; "There is not to much that I can say on this game right now other than it is an RPG style game for the iDevice and we are very excited about it. What I can say is that we are pretty big fans of World of Warcraft, both the game play and the visual style. This has had significant influence in RPG we are now developing for the iPhone/iPod Touch. The game is larger in scope compared to our previous games, but we are quite pleased at how it's looking and wanted to "tease" a little bit with some images. However, it is still a little ways out." >so looks like it'll be an RPG, probably an MMO
Hey everyone. It's awesome to hear the excitement so far! Thanks!! It really let's us know that we have been heading in a great direction. I know details are scarce at best right now, but we will be revealing more details very soon. However... It is an RPG. It is inspired by WoW in both visual style and game mechanics. It is NOT your typical fantasy world. It will have dedicated single-player game play. It will have dedicated MMO game play.
I wonder what you mean by "It is NOT your typical fantasy world." Glad to hear that it will also have single-player game play.
"It will have dedicated MMO game play." An MMO inspired by WoW in terms of art style and game play? Oh boy, once this game really starts to pick up steam in terms of hype and popularity, there's no stopping the train. This may very well be the closest thing to having World of Warcraft on the iPhone.
Plus, because it's the iPhone, there's a 99% chance that this won't be more than $10, compared to the hundreds that WoW can cost!
From what I can examine in the screenshot: -The two (assuming dwarf) enemies are wearing some sort of cyborg'ish silver outfit. - Draw distance is very low but hopefully it will be increased significantly, or as an option for those with newer hardware (3GS or iPod 3gen) -Given the two on-screen joysticks, I'm wondering if attacks are directional or if the right joystick is used for looking around and attacking is done by tapping the screen. - 'Buffs' look like they will be a mechanic in the game from the two mini-icons under the player portrait - The two bottom far right icons look more futuristic than the rest -The inventory bag at the top right may indicate that we can 'loot' enemies and bosses aside and possibly alter character appearances with weapons/armor - I'm wagering this is the Dwarven area given the architecture and the location probably based underground. Hopefully we'll see outdoor environments as indoor hallways and caves can get pretty stale. -There's actually two guards off in the distance as well and their all 'dwarves'. Will we see starting areas for each race we choose to play as or do these characters/location just one area of the game? As far as feedback based on that screenshot alone, I hope a minimap is implemented along with social networking included, whether thats OpenFeint, Plus+ or a new system from scratch that will allow you to press a button during game play and it brings up a chat window. Since this is likely 100% an MMO -- please please..please add character customization. It's almost essential for an MMO and a genre that many people want to feel unique in. I hope this churns some more discussion and feedback.
This is an instabuy for me. Hopefully you guys will let us beta test?? Now all we need is a night elf Mohawk! also please change the name to upcoming MMORPG or WoW like iPhone game cause it's coming... Doesn't say anything!
