    The more videos i watch, and the more i read about this game, the more interested i get. I really like the Fable 1-2 art style. It has a really unique fantasy feel to it. Plus, the combat is probably the most unique out of any current MMO. Here is a whole mess of videos, for anyone interested (be sure and watch them in High Quality):

    Unfortunately, this game won't be noob friendly and will probably end up with the same fate as Tabula Rasa and soon-to-be Age of Conan.

    However, this game looks FUCKING AWESOME!!!  I don't have access to signing up for the beta, but my buddy and co-worker is going to hook it up on his comp at home and let me know about it.

    I hope not, but yeah... It's hard for me to have faith in any new MMO. It seems like they all inevitably flop. People are just so absorbed in WoW. I almost think nothing will ever topple that game.

    It's not necessarily that they are absorbed in WoW.  It's just that when you have 11.5 million people on a game that is very noob-friendly (I mean, I watched my brother's guild wear Red Winter Santa Hats run Heroic Sartharion with little to no effort in about 30 minutes...and they aren't even geared), then you can't really do much when that low standard has been set.
    I play WoW mostly because I've put 3 years into my two characters on there, finally starting a third, and moving over to another MMO feels like I seriously wasted all that time.  It makes me realize why EQ1 is still going.  lol  I played WAR for about 2 months, and it was an excellent game.  Unfortunately, none of my friends wanted to play it.  =  /  Then again, they are all very PvE-centric people, and I'm a PvP kind of guy.  Therefore, Spellborn looks like it's right up my alley.
