Miner Wars 70% Discount
2010-10-10 9:43 PM PDT
Apart from the Miner Wars .com page getting a few features like a Store Front, and Statistics upgrades, the Test Build is being offered via pre-order. Here is a readout from the page:
"This last phase of development was rewarding, but really very hectic. In recent weeks, we haveintensified our efforts to establish relationships with publishers and investors. The good news is, We have made a lot of progress in this regard and so we have decided to share our progress with all the fans. Literally! Finally, we are publicly releasing the game in its current pre-alpha state at a 70% discount from the price of the final version! Every player who chooses to buy the game at this stage of development will not only be able to play the game now, but will also receive monthly updates, as well get the full game at its release with no additional charges. We will be adding a lot of content to the game as we progress. As time goes by, and we near our final release date, this offer will become more expensive for you, so now is the chance to get the game for just a small portion of the price."

What more could you want, a 6DoF mining space game, on sale for a ridiculous price, and you see it being developed. There isn't too much gameplay aspect now besides computer AI dogfights and tunnel blasting madness but it shows much promise of a great in-house game engine and a very sandbox feel gameplay.

First Impressions of FFXIV from a FFXI p...
2010-09-17 2:47 AM PDT
Final Fantasy XIV is now in open beta, and I'm happy to be a part of it. It's a long awaited game for myself loving Final Fantasy XI, so I decided to give FFXIV an open mind. However many things are upsetting, and some you would think would be easy to get over, but over time show their evil faces. I joined the Selbina server thinking many FFXI players would be there, and be of help, perhaps that was half true.
This next section may contain Spoilers if anyone wants to play the game with a clear slate.
Starting the game from the mindset of a FFXI player this is bascially the feel of starting a game:
You start making your character and you are suprised how many options you're now given, however you notice most of the 'new' races are the old races with small modifications. Like the Galka have no tails, and instead of 'tarutaru' there is another type of infant looking adult choice. You let that slide seeing how most Final Fantasys throw around names and terms, and then see how there are other choices for alliances - you have no idea what any of it means but think the stats help you, and choose according to those. Then it hits ya... Classes.
Who named the classes?! It's the worst choices of names and starter jobs for anyone who wanted to pick their favorite class. Basically the only guys you can be sure on are, Pulgist which you're pretty sure is Monk, and Archer which you're pretty sure is ranger. But the other's are pretty out there, maybe the warrior is the one with the blade, but wait, does that marauder have a giant axe?! and look a lancer, lost his dragon. Poor bloke. Heavens forbid you want to be a mage, there are only two choices, and from their names you're not sure who's the blm and who's the whm... but you look at weapons and then decern from the staff/wand who is who. But wait, there are non-combative classes / professions?! Well you can start your character off as a fisherman, and have absolutely no way to try to defend yourself (but you don't know that yet, and you...
