New MMORPG by Gary Gygax: Lejendary Adventure

Thanks to Scott MacPherson for pointing us to that: There is a new MMORPG in the making, named "Lejendary Adventur", by noone else by the equally legendary Gary Gygax. Here's the beginning of the (very) long description of the game:
    For once the game hype is true. The Lejendary Adventure (LA) MMP Online RPG is not the same as the others are, it is better and more fun too. Here's why:

    The core system is based on skill-bundles rather that character class features and abilities. This means that the player can build virtually any sort of game persona (Character/Avatar) desired. If an archetype is desired, there are "Orders" in the LA game system that assigns Abilities (skill-bundles) automatically. If freedom to be inventive is desired by the player, all the Abilities are there to select from when creating the new Avatar. Because the system is intuitive in many places, "rules-light" and based primarily on percentages, it is both easy to understand, learn and play. Speaking of playing…

    You'll hit the ground running in the Lejendary Adventure online game! Only a few choices are necessary to be made by the player before getting right into action. After selecting seven or eight "facts" about your game character, your Avatar, will be immersed in the Lejendary Earth world setting, and in action. While interacting, the player gains more information, makes choices, and the Avatar develops further. So much for boring preparation before getting into the game.

    The player will direct his Avatar in gaining the Abilities desired, interacting with Non-Avatar Characters (NACs) in the fantasy world, learning information, finding and buying instruction and equipment as he does so, and in the process increasing the four Base Rating scores for the game character. Right, four main stats only, and this simple system works elegantly to reflect the heroic Avatar that comes from them.
The site holds screenshots, and concept artwork here, too. Sounds like a very interesting one!
