I’ll start out by saying I appreciate this games nostalgic feel and sound. Many people won’t like that aspect or the game. Truthfully this game is a combination of Final Fantasy 11/14 in looks and feel. And even has some music similar to Chrono Trigger. The movie scene are ok seems like they are from the PlayStation 2 days in its peak.

 The customization is a bit average more should be done there before it’s live. The fight seemed a bit clunky for me and a little bit meh. It also looked exactly like final fantasy 14’s old UI skill bar.
I did the first hour in the game I was asked not to spoiler anything else after that. So here it is I give this game novelty playability. But if you’re looking for a wow/gw2 killer keep looking it’s not here.

The tension of having a sliver of health remaining and one more hit could be IT for you? If you're looking for a MMO that will challange you, this is the game. This game is difficult, and not simply because the developers decided to pump the HP of the monsters. Your HP and mana does not regenerate and if you die and fail to rez twice? You will suffer perma-death. As if that wasn't exciting enough, the dungeons actually require thinking to progress. Dungeons are not places to grind, you need to figure out clues to proceed while watching out for traps that are actually deadly. You can use potions or the rare healing fountain to recover, but if you try to go charging into the dungeon and take on everything, you're going to be in trouble.

Of course, some of you are probably thinking Perma-death? (After 2 failed rez attempts) - No thanks. I wouldn't let that dissuade you from playing the game,

Permanent Deaths abound!]]> [Game info] In what I see as a surprise move, Sony Online Entertainment has announced that it will be publishing Wizardry Online, the MMO reincarnation of the classic franchise. SOE will be having a demo of the game next week at E3 as well. Currently in the commercial phase (P2P) in Japan, Wizardry Online features several hardcore functions such as possible permanent death, tons of maze-like dungeons filled with ferocious creatures/ demons and death traps.
On hindsight, the deal looks like a match since Wizardry Online is developed in Japan by Gamepot, while I am suspecting some of Sony's bosses over at HQ took part in negotiating the deal. Whatever the case is, prepare for a really, really tough game ahead in terms of mechanics. I wonder if it will go P2P as well...

I have some good news for you guys and gals. You heard of Wizardry Online which just recently graced the Japanese, right? Well, it has been confirmed that the game is making its way westward to both the EU and NA audiences, courtesy of the Japanese Publisher, Gamepot. They’re working on bringing this game over by early 2012.

For those who never heard of Wizardry Online, it is made in conjunction with Headlock studios in order to revive a classic game in RPG history. The game attempts to keep features of the original games alive by having complex dungeons which the original game is known for but adding standard mmo features such as party play and pvp combat. (I am all for pvp) Hardcore fans may be pleased to know that while it is a mmo, it does offer some features that those looking fo
