Can't wait. In the meantime I'll pretend to be a magical girl pokemon trainer and SWTOR fan fiction.
Can my ****** Naruto Crossover Ninja with Force powers join you?

He has a mean Force Lightning Rasengan, I promise!

I'm guessing that MMO wouldn't be anything like that.
It is rumoured that this WoD will be more or less a modern clone after Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines. It is supposedly in development at CCP Games, after they bought White Wolf Publishing. They are keeping a very tight ship and not saying much about it, but they DID have some personnel layoff, which almost makes it vaporware.

It will be one of the very few modern day MMO - more or less a wanna be "smarter" The Secret World, with vampires. The idea is awfully compelling.

A quote there is hilarious: "The way the characters move around the city feels very vampiric" - It almost sound like "We want you to feel heroic".

I don't know about the whole "wanna be secret world" since world of darkness IP dates long before it and to be honest, bloodlines (and redemption, yes, I said it, I love that game) IMO aged pretty well.

I can definitely see how Bloodlines could work as an MMO setting and would be curious to see how they handle Malkavian and Nospheratu :P its possible that that's what they referred to as far as "vampiric" is concerned. and/or seeing regular people as potential prey?

either way, it would be interesting to see

For a good month after Warlords of Draenor was announced, every time I saw an article on a videogame site or a forum post that only referenced "WoD" in its headline I kept thinking "Oooh, finally something new on the World of Darkness MMO!?" followed one short click later by "D'oh!"

From what bits and pieces I could find, everybody starts human and it is possible to keep being human. You need a player to transform you (I assume biting), which will pretty much decide / influence your clan. The Masquerade is supposedly in play and enforced, or will play a big role. They also say they have measures in place against the inevitable naked hillbillies yelling in the middle of the town "I R VamPiRez!". Google is your friend - here and there are SOME pieces of info lying around.

The downside of all this is the CCP Games - and they say it WILL be more on the hardcore side. Supposedly perma death is present, albeit only in a few cases. Nothing new for the name behind the game, though.

They're already back :P
Apparantly the game was so good that they played it for all of 2 days before returning here

I'm guessing people "constantly bombard" the forums about their dislike for the game, because they get an anxious and dramatic response from people like you. Here, you cried enough to make your own "Yay, nobody can criticize my game!" thread.

I find it hilarious that somebody makes a "SWTOR Sux" thread and people like you can bump it for weeks with 10 pages full of replies.

Just let the threads die, or don't let them get to you. Who cares if somebody doesn't like your game? My kid tells me almost every day how much she hates broccoli. I still eat it.

Its like choosing whos more annoying, evangelical Christians shoving their religion down your throat or the unrelenting atheists ************ about how religion is destroying the world.
I am impressed that you took my thread seriously.
I sure didn't :P

It's not about critique for most people, I guess. But it's quite annoying when there is a whole bunch of people in the community (that you like to participate in) of the game (you like to play, despite all of its flaws), that obviously can't accept the fact that some people are still having fun and thus want to spoil it for everyone else. And yeah, that's exactly what all those anti-SWTOR-crusaders obviously are trying to do.

If they are posting here they probably aren't "anti-SWTOR-crusaders" because theyre paying to play the game, maybe they just want it fixed so we don't have another star wars mmo ruined by a game company that should know better.
