Neverwinter MMORPG
Sir Edward:
Check this out... they're having "beta weekend #2" this weekend:

It looks like they'll have an open beta before it goes live, and it'll also be a free-to-play game. I'm tempted to get the $60 starter pack though.
Cryptic Studios is the company that also did Star Trek Online, which I enjoyed. They also built the Foundry system for that game and for Champions Online, which they'll use here too. The Foundry is a system for letting players create story content (basically a mission builder, with dialog flowcharts, map editing, etc).
So, I'm intrigued. :)
Ian:
I do love me some Forgotten Realms lore. The last D&D based MMO was a horrible failure, I hope this one proves otherwise. They should have no shortage of content with the whole rich established history of Faerun to draw on. I always wished the Dragonlance world got as big as Forgotten Realms, that would have been a cool MMO setting :)
Sir Edward:
Oh heck yeah, Dragonlance would have been great. I played a PC game set in that world, (DragonStrike, 1990). Very simple graphics, but it was a dragon flight-simulator, in which you would chase down the other dragons and lance them... which was quite cool.
Sir Wolf:
hmmmm
Sir William:
Forgotten Realms...my intro to D&D console gaming. :)
