Low fantasy medieval MMORPG with supposedly a Mount&Blade -like combat system.
Asked the dev how the combat system will be myself, answer:

Yes it is. We are using three directions attack and blocks. Something like in Mount&Blade. In addition, as we all know MMORPG have to get active skills, which players could activate by doing combination of attacks to release it. Thats something nearly system from Age of Conan.

Than why from the video it looked like click-and-die-based-on-level-and-magical-pants type of combat like 500 other MMOs before it? Kinda looked like Diablo(or Gothic type of combat) to me. Cause I didnt see them block even once, but just randomly give out slashes.
You know you can think(and even pull off) any tipe of bullshit story/enemies/huge world for an MMO these days but noone will give even a single fuck if you dont have proper combatsystem.
BUUUUUUUT, atleast its free to play and already that deserves some Kickstartermoney. Only time will tell thou if it will be Pay2win.

Supposedly it won't be pay 2 win, and thanks for putting the thread up, I was too lazy to do it myself xD
Backed this day one and I'll be there for a long time!

Yeah atm it looks pretty bad, not going to pledge myself yet. You have to consider they're really early in development though. And this is still more content than what most Kickstarters put up these days.

Looks like it looks and runs much better from previous installments. Still not convinced with the combat, though.

I gave them $15 when they first announced it, they seem to be pretty good for doing updates, fixes, improvements and what not. I don't regret the donation.

Never gave you a +1 until now sheepshagger, there's a first time for everything. :wink: Not that I hate the guy but he's annoying as hell with his "I'm a try-hard geek who once shagged a poker-eyed harpy-hag with diarrhea problems right in her ass and now I talk like one" style.

Looks pretty good, but the combat is reminiscent of War of the Roses, which is horribly clunky and a shit game in general. Hopefully they improve on that.
