The zombie on the last screen looks sweet, but the rest of the shots (especially the first two) are.. well.. ugly! I wonder how this is possible, as earlier vids and shots looked mighty amazing.

I'm not worried at all. This game is in very capable hands. Great licensed technology, great talent to work with the technology. Arcane must be tickled pink to have such a powerful engine to work with this time around.

The fact that it looks so over the top violent puts it at the absolute top of my list!
Just call it Severance II yeah!

I didn't much care for the line "A subtle layer of RPG" under the 'Key Features' section. That doesn't sound much like a Might and Magic CRPG to me, but I guess if they are going to make a Might and Magic action game, anything will be better than Crusaders of Might and Magic and especially Legends of Might and Magic. I did like Arx Fatalis a lot, so if this game is anything like that one, it should be pretty fun to play. However, I hope eventually someone makes a REAL Might and Magic CRPG again. Sigh.

I have never played any of the Might and Magic titles, but this one and HOMM definitely have me sitting up and taking notice.

I'm sure its an action adventure game. I've got no problem with that - even though I prefer a rich RPG. I'm having a blast playing Conan and I loved Severance so I'm sure this will be just as fun.

Unsure about the quality/depth and value of the single player game with such a large focus on multiplayer (which doesn't make a lot of sense to be).

Hopefully they will take advantage of the engine beyond standard physics stuff (which every developer who uses this engine uses).
