The official website for Asheron's Call 2 has opened its doors to the public. Jeffrey Anderson, offers these words of welcome:
We are very pleased to welcome you to the official Asheron's Call 2 Web site. Everyone here at Turbine is excited about the continued success of the Asheron's Call franchise and glad to have the opportunity to share our passion with you.
Turbine was started in 1994 by a small group of hard-working entrepreneurs who loved online games. In fact, the company actually started in the founder's basement. Since then, we've grown to about seventy people and have shipped some of the best online games in the world. We're very proud about what we have done, but we are still learning. We spend a lot of time listening to the true online gaming experts--players like you--in emails, on the boards and even at Player Gatherings. A lot of your ideas and suggestions have changed the way we think about MMPs. Thanks for all of the help over the years! We believe you will find it will make a big difference in AC2.
More specifically, AC2 began over a year ago with a dedicated team at Turbine. From the very beginning, we have been focused on delivering the first “second-generation” MMP. Turbine has been building online worlds for seven years now, and we are using all of that experience to reshape the franchise. I believe that this project is going to radically change the way that players think about online games.
We are focusing on what makes games FUN. Unlike other MMP projects that seem to care more about collecting money than customer care, we are working to set a new standard for polished gameplay, robust technology, and high quality customer service. In particular, we want to emphasize a few core ideals in the product:
Fun: Engaging and compelling; never boring.
Simple: No one should need to read a manual to get started.
Deep: Providing expansive depth for endless play.
Personal: The game actually “knows” who you are and what you want.
Compelling: Combining action, adventure and exploration.
Social: Bringing people together in fun, meaningful ways.
Stable: Offering a robust gaming experience.
Turbine is committed to delivering on these goals and we are excited about being part of the Asheron's Call 2 project. As always, we look forward to hearing from you about what you like (and even what you don't like!) about the game. Ultimately, this is your world and we want to do the best job possible.
Thank you again for all of the past support and your continued interest in Asheron's Call.
Very truly yours,
Jeffrey Anderson
The media section offers some new screenshots and a collection of trailers. Apart from that, the site already holds a lot of info about this (extremely good looking) MMORPG... |
