The E3 movie from Black Prophecy gives a look at Reakktor Media's
upcoming outer-space MMOG. The clip is located on the
Black Prophecy Website, where they
are also now accepting sign-ups for closed beta testing of the game. The movie
is mirrored on
AtomicGamer,
FileFront, and Gamer's
Hell.

You're missing the point, Elf. Guild Wars, as an MMO, is easy to pick up, play and then set back down. It doesn't require you to treat it like a second job and doesn't penalize you for not doing so. Also, it's not an endless grind for 200 hours for gear that is one point better than the gear you have now.

Guild Wars?!?
I know some people like it but honestly I cannot stand it. It's a single player game with fantasy MMO AOL Teen Chat cluster fuck zones. Damage doesn't scale down, so I'll do max damage on a level 20 or a level 3 (which is just STUPID).
Personally I'd setting for a little bit of eve and a whole lot of freelancer/privateer.

This game looks really beautiful. I just wish it wasn't another MMO. I'm itching for a great single-player space sim epic.

If it turned out to be Guild Wars in space, I would really like that.
I enjoy the fact that Guild Wars is a game I can sit down and complete at my own leisure. That not playing for six hours straight has zero negative impact on my character or guild.
I think a less hard core EVE would do very, very well.

Looks a lot like Eve. I suspect we have not really seen many space-based MMO titles in that it does feel a little awkward in the way the game plays out. Especially if you are coming from a game like WoW or EQ.
I hope they don't make this title the huge time sink that Eve is. Even though it's a MMO and it's designed to be an endless "grind", I still think it's silly that it takes days, weeks, months (?) to train a single skill. With the right spec off the fly in Eve, you could probably get a stripped Battleship in the time it takes you to grind a level 70 in WoW (if you played 24/7). Throw in learning, gunnery, science, drones, navigation, mechanic, and about a million other skills and that will take probably an extra three or four weeks. Even with the live training.
So, it would be nice if it was more friendly towards casual players in that it won't cost a monthly fee to say "hey, I took that time to learn how to pilot and fit a Rokh Battleship"
