    Glad to hear that the game is making good progress.

    As they say, Rome was not built in a day. Each day spent, however, was entirely necessary and worthwhile.

    The same goes for Pantheon and I look forward to seeing it grow.

    Ox, There has been three different writeups on this. One from Game Informer, one from Gamers Nexus and one from MMORPG.com. Kilsin linked all these in this forum under individual posts. It looks like there has been great reception of the game.

    Hi Pyde,

    I have been seeing nothing but great intrest and reviews so far.  I was looking for the teams update on thier views and perspective.  GDC is a big event and you have to bring your A game.  From my perspective the VR team did just that!  Nice work guys! 

    Lots of buzz on the game forums too.   I know we have to be patient but the building energy is fun to experience.

    Nice, I got a good laugh on that Leon. I will have to make sure I specify my enquiries to from the VR team. Most of the stuff on the tube is just not worth my time right now.

     

    Still chuckling about that.

    Wow a development team that actually wants input from players and means it? This is a very interesting but great turn of events. Keep it up and hopefully we can get a sneak peek into a more advanced game in a few months (Not expecting a finished product of course). I know personally it would be very interesting to see in person how the game evolves from stage to stage running around beating things up as the balancing gets figured out and so on I always was interested in that part of a game. I know thT it is not possible but hey still be cool! Really looking forward to seeing this game move forward. Great work so far keep it up.

    Progeny System
    Players will be able to 'retire' high level characters and then create their children as new characters, but these new characters, the 'progeny', will have certain abilities, stats, etc. that make them slightly yet noticeably better than a completely brand new character (but not to the point that it unbalances things).

     

    That is one interesting concept i have never heard of. Good work.

    Very interesting idea!  I wonder if that is something can even be put into the game engine?
