"SH game" is just a code name, the official name haven't been announced so far. Tips: Tencent is one of the biggest IT company in china and has been notorious for copying other software and ideas.

Inb4 Prpavi, Khorin and other eastern-culture-lovers make this place so slimy that you can't walk around here anymore without slipping on their juices.

Obvious similarities.

Although, claiming that this is a Ripoff is like claiming all First Person Shooters are a ripoff of Call of Duty or Battlefield.

It seems to have its own style and mechanics in the game.

Not saying they didn't steal the idea.  Although, with the logic people like to use.  Most games are a copy of something.

EDIT: Inb4 Crpg for this game comes out

BLOOD WILL BE SHED FOR THIS HERESY

What, you think the basic game won't have grinding in it? an ASIAN game? 

It will be just like that.

How do you not see exact chinesified copies of Ruins and Arena in the screenshots? The castle on the screenshots and in the video is clearly Mahdaar castle from Native.

When you 1 to 1 copy maps from a game, I think ripoff is a justified term. I honestly don't get why they would do that though. It isn't like Warband's maps are particularly great or imaginitive. I imagine making an original generic Ruins or Arena map is easier than trying to copy it. They have no shame in doing straight copies apparently, dunno how that goes with law suits.

Nice graphics though, might ditch Warband and play this instead

I will give you that.  I noticed the many copied maps instantly.  I am talking about the game as a whole though.  'Arena' is a simple idea and nothing very original itself in all honesty.

GG won't play, I saw 50 minigun archers near the end of the video. 0.48

[Armpit_Sweat]

I would like to try it!

Holy crap! Im sorta stunned aswell. How the fuck do you even copy the maps. I mean jesus. After making something like that you cant even call yourself as a person with slight dignity and respect. Thats 100% a fraud.

[Butan]

Looks like a lot of fun actually.

[Apsod]

Looks extremely awkward and fantasy-ish.

[CrazyCracka420]

Looks like it has potential.

Although the guy lancing on horseback has me a little worried that using the full length of weapons isn't that important (or even possible)

[Polobow]

Is this f2p or one-timed purchase? I can see the evil schemes of getting random items in a box, or 'xp' boosters...

[Necrorave]

I just realized, they have a stamina bar in this.

If it doesn't have any of the bugs still prevalent in warband then I don't care if it is a ripoff.  Bring it on.  Not a big fan of the combination of setting and character designs though.
