[QUOTE="Derren, post: 5281916, member: 2518"] Even I, the most obnoxious 4E hater du jour, would like to see another D&D game, no matter the edition (as all the complains I have about 4E don't apply to video games). Sadly, as far as the rumor mill goes it doesn't look good. As it was said before, everything points to Atari announcing a Neverwinter Nights MMO by Cryptic. And Cryptic is not known to make high quality MMOs. Their games tend to be rather simplistic but also very customizable. What their games ultimately boil down to is "You have a overland map with groups of monsters in there and NPCs. The NPCs give you quests to go into a building and kill all monsters in there" I think both their recent MMOS, Champions Online and Star Trek Online are free to play til level 15 or so. So you can see for yourself that Cryptic making the game is not a good thing. Still they are a logical choice as they already have experience with MMOs for PnP games (Champions). [/QUOTE]
