ROFL at the results, all the other games sound ok, but not without giving them a test through trials or betas.

I don't really know anything about future games other than AOC and DF, so if someone who has been following things can give a thumbnail description of the others, that would be great.

i think we should all go and give o2jam a hard go, lol
aoc sounds nice and i mean nice in a creamy goodness type of birds chirping in the sunrise as clouds suffocate our visions of the cool and heartwarming breeze that flows through the skin till the end of our fingernails and we forget we are alive and seem to fall in a dream like sleep, . only if they have a really sweet buffing cleric class.

I'm dead sick of games with leveling systems... Leveling = grinding = no casual play = burning out. LAME!

But all games have some sort of leveling to it. Like in the uo back in the day i spent hours at the BK room with tons of ppl to gain swords and then at the roting corpse room doing the same, If thats not grinding i dont know what is.

DescriptionAge of Conan – Hyborian Adventures is an Online Action RPG scheduled for Windows in 2006. A mix of a deep, story-driven single-player experience and a massive and brutal multiplayer end-game brings forth the ultimate representation of the Age of Conan. Now you can enter the brutal domain of the world’s greatest fantasy hero.

In Conan the players will encounter a dark, lush, violent and sinful universe, presented in fantastic graphics and stunning 7.1 surround audio. In a world filled with cruel gods, mythical creatures, lost civilizations and a struggling human race, the mighty barbarian has finally seized the throne as king of Aquilonia. But Conan’s rule is on the brink of chaos, spiraling towards the doom of ancient evils.

In this twisted fantasy world, dark magic and brutal combat lurks around every corner, and each man and woman must carve their own unique destiny under Conan’s reign. In the true vision of Robert E. Howard’s dark universe it’s now time for you to become a messenger of death.

* Explore Hyboria, the legendary world of Conan, presented in incredible graphics and sound.
* Emerge as a hero from a story-driven single-player experience and embark into even greater adventures in the multiplayer part of the game. The branching single-player story is created by the award-winning writers behind The Longest Journey, Dreamfall and Anarchy Online so expect a rare treat.
* Experience Funcom’s revolutionary “Real Combat” engine. A new multi-point melee system allows the players to swing their weapons where they direct it, in real-time, going head-on against the formulaic nature of online RPG combat.
* Create player-made battle formations, and command both NPC’s and other players in epic multiplayer battles.
* Form guilds in the multiplayer game and lay siege to hostile castles. Let the catapults sing their merry song of death as the enemy is brutally crushed to a pulp

DescriptionThe Chronicles of Spellborn is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game set in the Enclave of the Five Sacrifices. This enclave is a collection of rock realms drifting through the DeadSpell Storm.

The DeadSpell Storm allows the world to exist in a mythical state; inhabited shards of rock float through a breathable void that boils with elder power. Nothing but a common history and ancient magic prevents the shards from falling into oblivion.

These levitating rock-realms contain mountains, forests, fields, villages and cities built on the pieces of a broken world. To travel from one realm to the other, you have to fly through a maelstrom of restless magic and brave the many dangers which the ever shifting storms hide

Darkfall - im not even gonna bother. I prefer to call it forumfall

i voted for warhammer
a little hesitant to bother with it now that EA is part of Mythic but it's a game I have been watching for awhile.

so does this mean your all quitting VG?

Vanguard stands as the tool we're using to reunite any inactive members we can before a real games comes out, in my opinion.

And Ehonda, UO had its grind, but if you didn't have 7x it didn't mean you couldn't go out and hunt with people who were 7x because you were way out of their level range...
