An E3 preview of Climax' 'Warhammer Online' has been kicked up at Gamespot:
Climax Entertainment was on hand at E3 2004 with Warhammer Online, the studio's upcoming online role-playing game based on the dark fantasy world of Warhammer--a hostile world in which humans and their allies are constantly at war with fell creatures, like orcs. However, the studio is attempting to include as few objectionable features in the game as possible--these being any features of current massively multiplayer games that people don't find to be enjoyable. As such, Climax has decided to deemphasize statistics, ability scores, and other numbers, replacing these with bar charts that gradually grow or shrink over time. In addition, you won't be able to "/consider" your enemies--that is, you won't be able to target an enemy and receive a specific, color-coded text message on the creature's relative toughness. Instead, you'll look across the battlefield and see a huge orc wielding wicked-looking axes in either hand and perhaps decide right then and there that a fight might be too much for you.
