Title: Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
Post by: Sirgin on October 11, 2008, 10:18:44 AM
This game has been out for about 3 weeks now, has anyone here played it?
I heard from a couple of people at college that it is great, from an MMORPG-player's point of view anyway. One person said the graphics were awesome and realistic, not cartoon-ish like WoW.

I watched a gameplay video and wasn't really blown away by it. Maybe I haven't seen enough of it but I expected something more spectacular from what they told me. To me, it felt like I was watching a Guild Wars gameplay, pretty much the same stuff (and same style of graphics, too)

I do recommend everyone to watch this trailer, simply because it is awesome. :D

I hear that a console version of Warhammer is coming out, but I don't know a target release date.

Nice, but I don't know how succesful it'll be on a console. MMO's have always been a PC thing.

That's because they're wow people.


Nah, just kidding. But the people I've heard praising the game were former wow people though. :P

Time will be the real test. Conan has gone bad enough for them to have merged some of their servers together.

Ouch, that's never a good sign.


And did any of you guys played Tabula Rasa? That game looked quite promising but I'm hearing nothing from it anymore...has it failed or something?

Oh, I thought Richard Garriot's work was quite well respected among MMO'ers.

I've played maybe an hour and liked it. Pretty cool game. My favorite MMO is still D&D online though.

Did you buy it or can you download a trial version?
