Got Previews?

We've seen some come through the forum, but a new one from the MMO Gamer recently popped out for folks who are interested. Hit a link here.

As players progress further into the game, the subject of quests definitely comes to mind. In Warhammer, players will find a plethora of quests - and during those quests, the choices and decisions that the player makes will actually influence the way that the game world responds. Unlike many other games where completing a repeatable quest adds a few measly [ insert small cash coin here ], Warhammer takes your increasing fame and notoriety and allows the creatures and opposing mobs to respond - in force. Kill the privates and a corporal comes out; kill him and a big 'ol beastie or event pops out. This certainly goes a long way to keep the game fresh for higher-level players and not just the new kids in the starting zone.

As many Warhammer fans are already well aware of, warfare plays a huge part in the game (hey, who would've thunk it, right?). Realms face off versus neighboring realms; players are actively encouraged to participate in PVP elements and quests. Each player's individual fame level directly affects the status of the realm versus realm efforts. Players are not just limited to killing other players and repeating their quests - the real gem of this system is that you will all be looking at the very real chance of participating in the sacking of the capital cities of your opposition. Everyone's going to be doing it, and let's hope that you're gonna be in the front lines and not caught in the privy when it happens.


Hmm, sounds excellent!

EDIT, while this thread is here I might as well drop by this podcast, which contains a preview of WAR in it. =)

Not bad stuff. Nice finds.

I was meaning to post the Warherald roundup, but that is an awful lot of work, too many links, haha.
