Quote:

Mortal Online is a next generation PC MMORPG both in terms of graphics and gameplay. There are no PvP zones, only an open realistic world where you are free to choose your own path. Experience true real-time combat where you decide every move your character makes and where your personal skill really matters.

Build your own house, or set up a guild to build a keep. With enough power, violence or diplomacy, you and your allies will be able to rule an entire nation.

Choose from many different races and professions. You decide your own style of playing and whether to focus on PvP or PvE, both sharing the same game world. Devote your life to crafting, combat, magic or trading. Discover new skills, tools and resources. Or be the first to explore new areas to put your name on the map.

Sounds like a good successor to UO

that looks pretty damn good, i like the idea of been able to name parts of the map

theres another one that looks pretty good as well called the chronicles of spellborn, a little bit cartoonish but i recon it could do well as a successor to

Droeden · 16-04-08, 04:59 PM

Q: Is Mortal Online comparable to any other game out there?
A: It’s never easy to compare your work to others. The core team comes from the beta days of Ultima Online and wants to build a PvP game in the same spirit but with today’s technology.

ITS FELUCCA!

Its in early stages yet, dont get too excited.

Plus, Felucca killed UO

So its like a Halo killer, but for UO?

+ what Aeri said. "Don't get too excited". Saying that you aim to develop a game with principles of UO using modern technology is like saying you want to make a typewriter with a bluetooth port slapped on it somewhere. Its not going to work! Too many new MMOs are coming out now and any good or "revolutionary" ideas have arrived the wrong side of WoW. Players that like a game will stick to that but the kind of numbers you need to make a new game successful and fun and to have a future just can't be generated IMO. With the numbers (and certainly graphics) that UO has today, EA would have killed it off within a year had it been released in this day and age.

The sad thing is, a good chunk of people who play WoW probably don't even know what an "MMO" is - they just know that there are shooting games, RTS games, FIF... football games and then WoW. Blizzard managed to scoop up all that potential that UO and EQ didnt manage to grab. And every other game before and since, for that matter.
