I don't know which is worse: Dofus or WAKFU but I guess you don't need a great sounding name to do well for yourself. CoD:Blops is selling like hotcakes.

Unless they've changed it in the past few months, it's single unit. You can cast pets and other things, but they move on their own. If you've played Dofus, you've played this (kind of). Wakfu is just the next iteration. The map world scrolls around now, the terrain is more interesting, UI is totally different. There are a lot of improvements, but the gameplay is still similar to Dofus. I haven't been in for a long while since I became inactive in the beta. When I was active, it was a good lunch game. Bright, colorful, addictive. I'm glad beta is finally starting. This game has been under development for a very long time.

Hmm, worth trying just because it's turn-based. I've always thought FFXI should have gone that route rather than being an Everquest clone. I just hope you can control multiple characters. Playing a Tactics Ogre style game with one character would be dull, and not very tactical.

This looks like a FFTA MMO, not bad.

But OMG that name has got to go.
