The Shadowbane Beta Journal continues at the official site for this upcoming MMORPG. It's a report of someone being in the closed beta, and here's a bit from that:
    Anyone who likes having options, having control, being able to do many things at once -- anyone with the mental fortitude to chew gum and walk at the same time, will eventually love the way Shadowbane plays.

    The rest of the interface is equally customizable. Hotkeys can be set, button shortcuts can be dragged onto the screen, transparencies can be adjusted, chat menus setup, map, group screen, -- what gamers have come to expect are all there.

    The socials were a hilarious surprise to me, real quick. There are tons of them, and the character movement is extremely lifelike. Obviously somebody at Wolfpack was in the motion-capture suit creating these gestures. Attention to detail, even on something like the "roflmao" gesture, is evident within this game.

    Advancing character levels should seem familiar to experienced MMORPG players. Kill a mob, maybe you get some gold, or on a rare occasion, a piece of equipment. There are no useless items which are harvested from mobs, no troll ear, no rope, and no spider silk. The only possible loot is gold and equipable items.
