Another MMOG announced.... wait it's horror themed?!
MrSadistic \| 2:48 PM on 01.05.2008	13 comments

Gravity Interactive (Ragnarok Online) announced that they are bringing an MMOG, titled Requiem: Bloodymare, stateside in early 2008.

From the press release:

"Using the Havok engine, Requiem: Bloodymare brings to life a visually stunning realm where fallout from generations of scientific and mystical warfare has polluted the natural world and given birth to horribly mutated monsters. The battles between players and these grotesque creatures are rendered with intense sequences of bloody and gory graphics."

Requiem: Bloodymare also brings several game mechanics that set it apart from the rest of the MMO market. The time of day will be an extremely important factor for players under the Nightmare System with incredibly powerful creatures awakening to terrorize the world at night. To defeat these challenges players will be able to draw upon the DNA System and the Beast Possession System. Players will use genetic engineering to modify their DNA to obtain characteristics and abilities nature never intended. The mystic arts will enable players to possess and transform into different bestial beings with extraordinary abilities.

A web site is also available which shows a teaser video for the upcoming horror MMOG, which can be found here.

While it does sound like the usual standard MMORPG fair, this game has peaked my interest as the background is pretty dark and disturbing. Here's hoping that it comes together to make a great game.

I saw something about that on Ko...>_>...some place the other day and was slightly interested and slightly not. Couldn't decide.

Chaosye

Yay violence!

18 second video of the game's title and what may or may not be an actual character animation is a teaser trailer nowadays? All the same I'll keep an eye on this one.

Unless it's free which it wont be, I could care less. This buying a game then paying a monthly fee on top of that sucks balls and that MMO pricing structure should be eradicated from the gaming scene altogether.

MrSadistic

@Big Z

Well it does tease you into wondering if it's going to be complete shit or not.

@Y0j1mb0

Yeah, agreed. Whenever a MMOG comes along that you have to pay for, I just use a free trial if they're offering one. World of Warcraft is about the only MMORPG that I use to pay for, but then eventually got bored of.

mrsadastic@
do you mean bored of paying or playing

ShadowXOR

I found a trailer on YouTube and I can honestly say I don't care. I thought I'd love this because I figured it would be unique, almost like a survival horror, but it just looks like every other MMO with a horror-theme rather than a game that actually uses new mechanics.

MrSadistic

@Y0j1

That's cool. I'm mainly a fan of the 80s slasher/horror/zombie flicks as well as the old school black & white movies. The wallpaper I got the header from has a lot more cult classics:

Both.

I am slightly intrigued. I'll have to keep an eye on this one.
