Seed - Our First Impressions
 |
| by Thurston "Ratboy" Hillman |
For those who don't know about it, SEED is a brand new (released May 2nd) MMORPG, based around the survival of a select group of human colonists in the far future... in a Galaxy far far away... oh sorry wrong game. As a first impression the two things that struck us most were the graphics and the RPG element.

The style of the graphics immediately struck us as something right out of a comic book, with the characters looking like something right out of the pages of DC or Marvel. As has been described by the developers, this new style of graphics is not the traditional cell-shading that would be almost directly implied when you look at it. Despite being comic book style, the look of the game is dirty and gritty with a much more blurred texture to all of the imagery.
The next thing that comes to mind about Seed is the complete lack of any direct combat system. As most players out there are general jerks and enjoy killing their fellow man or an artificial intelligence. Unlike other games, SEED has no combat system and instead relies on other RPG elements to attract and keep its player base. The general information we gathered about the game, led us to compare it to some of the older adventure style RPGs where combat was never critical. In today’s marketplace it will be interesting to see how a game like SEED can cope in comparison to some of the more "easy access" games like WoW.
