    Hopefully the Ghibli film it takes inspiration from is the incredible, breathtaking Princess Mononoke, and not the obnoxious, overrated Spirited Away.

    Is that what they call the core guys from Hawken?

    It's not overrated at all. It's a great film. On topic the game looks amazing. Let's hope they finish it as I don't recall them having great luck withHawken. Did they even have a proper release or was it always in beta? Well, "eternal beta?"

    I'm very sceptical when it comes to survival games... BUT! I gotta admit, the trailer looked dope.

    Uh .... yeah. Just because the game has a great prototype trailer doesn't mean it will be worth a shit. Or has everyone already forgotten the Atlas fiasco?



    Well now I remember it, I was trying to forget it, thx.

    Thats the first thing that popped in my head when watching this.

    I'm a huge Khang Le fan.  His art is just amazing.  It's nice to see him pop up again.
    Seeing his work is probably the main thing that got me interested in visual arts.

    Some beautiful design work in that trailer.

    Since labels mean almost nothing, why don't we look at the actual game play elements?
    "This looks like a possibility of mixed genres something in lines of rts, third person exploration, possible rpg elements, story driven, with side quests etc......mix of TES series and settlers mixed with avatarian world like creatures and afkors nothing without evil LOTR uprising.... can't wait to see more?."
    That sounds like an interesting game no matter what.

    I was in until it was 6 devs and survival. The heart wants but the minds says not again!



    Agreed, not sure why people believe six devs with a questionable record can deliver an amazing game in any sort of reasonable time frame, but hope springs eternal I guess.

    It's not overrated at all. It's a great film.
    Both of them are for different reasons. I love most all of their films. I'll keep an eye on this game for sure. The trailer is amazing like trailers can be.
    Whoa! Overrated? You need get out of your "wolf princess" costume more. :)

    Anyway they are both great films but the music for me in SA is better.
