    Bah, screw the funky ARGs. I just want the game, if it's any good.

    I can only support Tycho. Spend less time and money on marketing, more on game design please. Maybe your MMO will even be more than cookie-cutter!

    I like my ARGs. Now to investigate...

    BTW: On the main page, the O is blurred. Click it. That'll then give you a link to the forums.

    I didn't look too far but there didn't seem to be much info there outside of "OH MY GOD I LOVE CTHULU! LETS MAKE AN MMO!". There's somewhere between zero and zilch info immediately obvious about the game and I didn't have much heart to go digging to find it if they didn't feel like just out and telling me something... heck anything.

    Could be good, could be bad, could end up never being released. With so few details it's hard to be positive or negative. If they actually decide to make any info available I'll take note but until now this is going on my backburners :p

    Lovecraftian MMO is kind of a bad idea. The entire mythos is kind of against it becoming mass knowledge and specifically trying to end humanity.

    I eh, expected something else when I was half way through scrolling over the image <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/nerd-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::nerdy::" border="0" alt="nerd-fix.gif" />

    We'll see what this MMO will bring.

    If you and the other few thousand people were investigators playing in a dark, horrible world where most NPCs didn't believe a word you're saying and the few that did were tentacle monsters that wanted to kill you, it would work perfectly. You would group up with a few buddies to investigate a haunted mansion that the local townsfolk have always shunned, go through a nightmare, earn a level or maybe go insane and commit suicide, and log out, ready to play another adventure later. It doesn't have to be exactly like World of Warcraft or something.

    If they could pull it off, I'd never play anything else.

    For once I was given some form of hope for a game.

    from the forums, it sounds like there's no evidence that the game will be based on Lovecraft, besides the cthuluesque concept art. Still, would be a sweet idea =p

    We should do an NS forums Call of Cthulhu campaign. Adios A-Mi-Go always cracked me up in concept.
