While waiting for NWN I figured I would give the world of spy,magic and mayhem a try and also to see FunCom got better.

It seems intriguing (for now at least) so if anyone is interested in seeing a video from the soon to be released title click here and here.

    Spiritual successor. Don't worry so much about it. Call it LKT37 if you want. You know what he meant by NWN, and if it's technically wrong, who're they hurting?

    The idea of MMO meets X-files intrigues me. However! We've all read previews and seen trailers for games "that rewrite the tired fetch 'n turn-in quests in new and unique ways!" Changing the kill-12-then-come-back-for-reward dynamic is one of TSW's selling points. If they're going to try changing the mission log to something innovative and promote that into one of their big things, they need to solidly reinvent the concept. I remember hearing The Old Republic claimed the same, and though I haven't played it, my friends tell me it's pretty much WoW in space.

    Grinding fetch quests is a quick and efficient way to get a character up to doing better things, so everyone has them. If TSW doesn't, it needs something either more efficient or more fun to do in the meantime. I guess that's hard to invent, cause everyone uses fetch quests. Maybe it's easier if you also don't have levels or classes.

    Spiritual successor? So now NWO is spiritual successor of NWNs cause its in Neverwinter?

    For that matter, why are you calling it NWO?

    And why are we talking about this when it's TSW? I hope I don't have to explain the acronym. Personally, I have an embedded video card on the MB which isn't comparable with TSW and coupled with their monthly sub plan, I'm holding off until they change something and/or I get a new video card. It still looks like a very interesting game made by a famous producer.

    Actually, Neverwinter is already an online game. There is no "Neverwinter Offline", hence no "Neverwinter Online" nor "NWO".

    NW.

    And my graphics card apparently is not good enough for TSW so as much as it seems interesting (pricing scheme being left out of the equation), I pass. Not buying a new one for a game... hear that Cryptic? Make NW so it works with my GeForce 8500 GT. XD

    I must have missed that? In so many interviews/videos I have read/watched, I didn't notice any developer mentioned "Neverwinter Online". Could you let me know in which interview you heard that?

    From some bits i've seen they usually just say Neverwinter, nothing else :s

    Tried it and didn't like it. Dunno why. Could have been the setting, could have been the combat. I don't really know why I didn't like it, just that I didn't like it (I didn't hate it though.)

    Dude, The Secret World, was a good game untill i saw it's game play and animations.

    Cons:

    no movement phsyics, everyone strafes and turns on the dime.
    weapons and guns floating on your back like in Age of Conan
    Game play very similar to Star Wars Knights of the Old republic online game

    Pros:
    Fresh game... and that's it.

    I played it beta and i didnt like it.I have like and hour playtime maybe 2 hours...still i didnt liked it.Killed some zombies and then some more zombies,zombies with chainsaws and a spectre chick.Now that i think about it,the spectre chick is the only thing i liked about the game. But still everyone have their own opinions.
