We want your money!

We have designed this game by chucking in everything with demographic appeal, from fantasy to goth to sci-fi! Dragunz and Battlez!

Please, sign up and pay us repeatedly!

Our principles are no better than those of drug dealers!

We will fail because we've missed the MMORPG boat, and go bankrupt!

But before that the CEOs will buy themselves a yacht!

Twinfalls: You are bored.

As far as the game goes, it sounds fantastic, I mean, especially the mech piloting and some other stuff...
I'll keep an eye out for thisone.

Um... Where exactly did it say it was an MMO?

From what I read it is a Single Player RPG...

It's a single-player action/RPG from an indie Italian studio.

Oh crap! I take it back then. Think I confused its name with that tree-world mmorpg, which actually looked kind of cool but then got canned.

Still don't like the 'lets throw in every freaking gameworld style we can think of in the hope of getting every demographic' concept of that press release.
