Why do the secret society Illuminatis all wear the same bright-colored futuristic jumpsuit uniforms in public?

@Bourbon_Warrior: Asking a legitimate question is now sterotyping? I'm not following your logic, i asked if it was sean bean, so that became me assuming it was sean bean because the guy sounded english? If it's not sean bean, then the guy at the very least sounds like him, you have to at least admit that.

His accent sounds northern English, his voice sounds less gravelly and bass than Sean Bean's. But you can see that his voice is what they were going for.

Btw, to any British people who're acting overly defensive, I'm british, so I'm just as qulaified as you are to say the above. And either, chill out or just don't say anything, people get things wrong all the time, not on purpose but simply because they acting on the best of their knowledge.

I'm kinda feeling APB vibes from this. The hype seems similar, the concept is JUST NOVEL ENOUGH, etc. I guess we shall see.

The Faction quiz they had a while ago placed me into the Templars, but I really want to be Illuminati.

Yeah I initially thought it was sean bean as well due to the Yorkshire accent as well. Maybe Yorkshire is the HQ of the Illuminati or something.

I want to check this out purely on the fact that it's not yet another high fantasy MMO.

Nice to see there are MMOs moving away from the fantasy setting.

This looks neat and all, but it will have to do something really different gameplay-wise to make me want to play an MMO again.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

This needs to happen. I want another epic journey, a long journey... some might say the longest journey.

I always imagined that if the Illuminati wore uniforms they'd wear black blazers or white cardigan sweaters or something. Not long blue chef tunics.

Whatever, this game looks unimaginative or pretentious stemming from someone with poor imagination. Good concept but lackluster execution. It looks bad. Maybe jumping the gun with that conclusion but I've been fooled once, many, many times.

I really love the drink gag at the end.

I hate myself a little bit for being interested in this. Story seems kinda cool but could easily turn out completely retarted.

If you want story in your MMO play TOR.

What interests me most about TSW is the alternative skill levelling system. Someone mentioned Ultima Online and I immediately had a bout of nostalgia.

This game could have been good. But then again, Funcom makes it. They should stick to non MMORPG's.

Are they trying to make smoking cool again? What brand are they endorsing, can't see the brand logo!

This looks like a Saints Row: the Third MMO. Kind of off brand sci-fi with ludicrous things happening in the world. Was that a lightning golem I saw? When the dude says that they "party hard" it sounds like they should do game breaking social events like the end of Star Wars Galaxies. Please try to quick look this!
